Abstract: A method for identifying a medium structure coupling and a fracture network morphology of a shale gas reservoir includes the following steps. Firstly, performing a fracturing test on shale cores by using a modified Brazilian disc test and categorizing the fracture network morphology. Secondly, performing a shale matrix-fracture structure and stress sensitivity test on the shale cores having different fracture network morphology. After that, determining a stress sensitivity constant of different fracture network morphology according to indoor core data and finally preparing an identification chart of the fracture network morphology based on an indoor core stress sensitivity test combined with a production practice. The identification chart can be applied to an actual fracturing well, and the fracture network morphology is directly identified by a real-time effective stress and a normalized flow.

Abstract: A method of optimizing well spacing for shale gas development is provided. It belongs to the technical field of hydrocarbon reservoir exploration and development. The method comprises: firstly verifying block area based on the explored geological structure; analyzing the connection situation of a shale reservoir, identifying the minimum developing area units; calculating the recoverable reserves of the units, confirming the candidate units; drilling representative shale cores and analyzing related physical properties; calculating seepage field and pressure field using unified multi-field, multi-flow-regime, and multi-scale mathematical models; calculating the effective recoverable area of each well; and arranging wells based on the rule that the interference among wells is not larger than 10%. Considering the fluid-solid coupling effects, the method can define appropriately well spacing for shale gas exploration and enhance effectively the output of shale gas.
