A study on high-maturity shale from the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations in the Sichuan Basin reveals the relationship between the degree of carbon isotope inversion and gas well production capacity (EUR), and indicates the preservation conditions of shale gas reservoirs. Carbon isotope inversion is a good indicator of shale gas preservation condition and EUR of shale gas wells.
Although carbon isotope reversal and its reasons in shale gas reservoirs have been widely recognized, the application of the reversal is yet to be investigated. A study on high-maturity shale from Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations in the Sichuan Basin not only reveals the relationship between the degree of isotopes inversion and the production capacity (e.g., estimated ultimate recovery (EUR)) of the gas well but also indicates the preservation conditions of shale gas reservoirs. (1) Although there are differences in gas isotopes in different shale gas reservoirs, the isotope fractionation of shale gas is small during the production stage of gas wells, even when the wellbore pressure drops to zero. The main cause of the difference in carbon isotopes and their inversion degree can be the uplift time during the Yanshan period and the formation pressure relief degree of shale gas reservoirs in distinct structural positions. Thus, carbon isotope inversion is a good indicator of shale gas preservation condition and EUR of shale gas wells. (2) The degree of carbon isotope inversion correlates strongly with shale gas content and EUR. The calculation formula of shale-gas recoverable reserves was established using D.513C (.5C1-.5C2) and EUR. (3) The gas loss rate and total loss amount can be estimated using the dynamic reserves and isotopic difference values of gas wells in various shale gas fields, which also reflects the current methane loss, thereby demonstrating great potential for evaluating global methane loss in shales.& COPY; 2023 China University of Geosciences (Beijing) and Peking University.
