Abstract

In order to study the effect of supercritical CO2 on the enhanced permeability of shale reservoirs, a study was performed on the permeability enhancement pattern of supercritical CO2 injection into shale reservoirs with the self-developed rock triaxial seepage experimental device. The results of the study showed that the CH4 permeability of shale reservoirs varied negatively exponentially with increasing pore pressure, and the permeability was significantly enhanced after supercritical CO2 injection into shale samples; taking sample 3 as an example, the CH4 permeability could be increased by 103.98% at a maximum; the enhanced permeability of supercritical CO2 at injection pressure of 9.0 MPa was better than that at 8.0 MPa under the condition of constant temperature; as the injection pressure of supercritical CO2 gradually increased to 10.0 MPa, the shale started to fracture; when the test temperature was 35 to 55 ℃, the enhanced permeability of supercritical CO2 in shale was decreased with temperature raise, and the wave velocity attenuation rate and the porosity were decreased by 0.15 percentage points and 0.90 percentage points with temperature raise, respectively, showing a linear decreasing relationship between wave velocity attenuation rate and temperature. The study results provide a theoretical basis for enhancing the permeability of shale gas reservoirs during the development of supercritical CO2-enhanced shale gas.
