Shale Gas Seepage Mechanism and Pressure Dynamic Characteristics Research

Abstract:

The shale gas reserves could bring huge economic benefits. Therefore, many domestic and international scholars had researched it in all aspects. The research of seepage mechanism is mostly based on double seepage medium, they think gas spread directly into the fracture system when gas instantaneous desorbing from adsorption medium surface. However, the processing method is not very appropriate, because a certain amount of free gas present in rock matrixes pores. In order to describe the flow process accurately, this paper proposed a new concept of triple porous media, established a new model of shale gas seepage and solved the mathematical model by using Laplace transform and Stehfest numerical inversion. Finally figured out pressure dynamic response curves and analyzed the influence of all parameters on these curves.
