  • 结合数据同化算法,在秒级内完成微孔隙相对渗透率推断
  • 适用于碳封存、油气开发等场景的高效多尺度岩心建模

碳酸盐岩储层在地下碳储存、石油开采和氢气存储方面具有重要潜力。常通过X射线计算机断层扫描(X-ray CT)与数值模拟结合研究其多相流行为。然而,碳酸盐岩存在跨尺度的孔隙结构分布,传统X-ray CT图像难以全面表征。多尺度成像虽可行,但面临视场与体素尺寸间的权衡,导致成像资源消耗大;且基于所得数字模型的多尺度多物理场数值模拟计算成本极高。为此,本文提出一种机器学习增强的数据同化框架,利用实验测得的排水相对渗透率数据,实现微尺度结构的高效表征,提供一种高保真多尺度数字岩心建模的数据驱动方案。我们训练一个密集神经网络(DNN)作为多尺度孔隙网络模拟器的代理模型,并与多重数据同化集合平滑器(ESMDA)算法耦合。DNN-ESMDA框架可同时推断微孔隙相的CO2-水排水相对渗透率并估计不确定性,揭示各岩相的重要性,指导后续表征。相比传统多尺度数值模拟需数千小时的推理时间,本框架将耗时压缩至秒级。凭借其高效性与普适性,该机器学习增强的ESMDA框架为多尺度碳酸盐岩表征提供了通用解决方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Carbonate reservoirs offer significant capacity for subsurface carbon storage, oil production, and underground hydrogen storage. X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT) coupled with numerical simulations is commonly used to investigate the multiphase flow behaviors in carbonate rocks. Carbonates exhibit pore size distribution across scales, hindering the comprehensive investigation with conventional X-ray CT images. Imaging samples at both macro and micro-scales (multi-scale imaging) proved to be a viable option in this context. However, multi-scale imaging faces two key limitations: the trade-off between field of view and voxel size necessitates resource-intensive imaging, while multi-scale multi-physics numerical simulations on resulting digital models incur prohibitive computational costs. To address these challenges, we propose a machine learning-enhanced data assimilation framework that leverages experimental drainage relative permeability measurements to achieve efficient characterization of micro-scale structures, delivering a data-driven solution toward a high-fidelity multiscale digital rock modeling. We train a dense neural network (DNN) as a proxy to a multi-scale pore network simulator and couple it with an ensemble smoother with multiple data assimilation (ESMDA) algorithm. DNN-ESMDA framework simultaneously infers the CO2-brine drainage relative permeability of microporosity phases with associated uncertainty estimation, revealing the relative importance of each rock phase and guiding future characterization. Our DNN-ESMDA framework achieves a computational speedup, reducing inference time from thousands of hours to seconds compared with the usage of conventional multiscale numerical simulation. Given this computational efficiency and applicability, the machine learning-enhanced ESMDA framework presents a generalizable approach for characterizing multiscale carbonate rocks.
