Key techniques for fine three-dimensional geological modeling of coalbed methane

China’s proven coalbed methane reserves exceeding 30 trillion cubic meters, and two major coalbed methane industrial bases have been established in the Qinshui and Ordos Basin. Among them, the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin is one of the main blocks for shallow coalbed methane development, holding immense exploration and development potential. Nowadays, the reservoir characteristics of the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin remain unclear, necessitating further research to study reservoir features through fine reservoir description studies. Three-dimensional geological modeling can effectively characterize reservoir heterogeneity, especially for predicting geological features between wells and in undrilled gas reservoirs. This study primarily focuses on conducting fine characterization of gas reservoirs and establishing a fine three-dimensional geological model through techniques such as multi-attribute fusion in the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin, providing guidance for making and adjustment of development schemes.

Abstract

China’s proven coalbed methane reserves exceeding 30 trillion cubic meters, and two major coalbed methane industrial bases have been established in the Qinshui and Ordos Basin. Among them, the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin is one of the main blocks for shallow coalbed methane development, holding immense exploration and development potential. Nowadays, the reservoir characteristics of the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin remain unclear, necessitating further research to study reservoir features through fine reservoir description studies. Three-dimensional geological modeling can effectively characterize reservoir heterogeneity, especially for predicting geological features between wells and in undrilled gas reservoirs. This study primarily focuses on conducting fine characterization of gas reservoirs and establishing a fine three-dimensional geological model through techniques such as multi-attribute fusion in the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin, providing guidance for making and adjustment of development schemes.
