Dynamic Reserves Calculation Method for Fault-Controlled Carbonate Reservoirs
Fault-controlled carbonate reservoirs are highly heterogeneous,with interweaving development of pores,fractures,and vugs of various sizes.For this kind of reservoirs,the dynamic reserves calculated using conventional material balance methods may be larger than the static reserves.By incorporating water-oil ratio and considering rock compressibility coefficients for different pore-fracture-vug media,a comprehensive compressibility coefficient suitable for the fault-controlled reservoirs was derived.On this basis,a new flow material balance equation was established for the fault-karst reservoir,and its accuracy and applicability were verified using numerical simulation.The re-search results show that the dynamic reserves calculated by the new equation have an error of only 0.1099%with the static reserves ob-tained from numerical simulation,confirming the new equation's reliability and accuracy.In the Halahatang area,the relative error be-tween the dynamic reserves calculated using the new equation and the static reserves derived from geological modeling for multiple wells ranged from-4.82%to-0.15%,which is significantly lower than that calculated using the conventional material balance equation.The re-sults obtained from the new equation are closer to actual conditions,making it more suitable for calculating the reserves of the fault-con-trolled carbonate reservoirs in the Halahatang area.
