摘要
Tight sandstone has a certain anisotropy. Using ultrasonic measurements of samples in three different directions and related matched experiments, this study systematically analyzes the pore structure and anisotropy of tight sandstone samples obtained from oil fields and compares results with those of shale. Results firstly show that the anisotropy of tight sandstone is mainly related to the compositional layering and thin interbedding which occur in different sedimentary environments. Tight sandstone has typical transverse isotropic medium characteristics, Young’s modulus increases in different directions with increasing confining pressure, Poisson’s ratio change is not obvious, anisotropic coefficients decrease with increasing effective pressure, and a certain linear relationship exists between ε, γ, and δ. This article finally summarizes anisotropy in different areas, thereby providing a foundation for the use of suitable appraisal models in different regions. This research can be used as an experimental reference for logging evaluation, seismic data interpretation, and fracturing develop of tight sandstones.
致密砂岩具有一定的各向异性。本文通过不同方向样品的声速测量及相关配套实验对致密砂岩进行了孔隙结构及各向异性分析,同时与页岩进行了对比。结果表明,致密砂岩样品所表现出的各向异性主要是由沉积环境差异形成的成分层、薄互层造成,具有典型的TI介质特征。不同方向杨氏模量随围压增加而增大,泊松比变化不明显。各向异性系数均随有效压力增加而减少,同时ε与γ和δ之间存在一定的线性关系。最后总结了不同地区的各向异性规律,为不同地区选择适合的评价模型奠定了基础。本次研究可为致密砂岩的测井评价、地震资料解释及压裂开发提供实验依据。
