    Abstract:

    Three-dimensional quantitative analysis of fracture is not only the comprehensive embodiment of fracture research results,but also the objective need of fractural reservoirs study and numerical reservoir simulation. With the advance of logging recognition,seismic detecting, dynamic monitoring, physical modeling and numerical simulation methods, we can get more valuable materials than before which bring even higher challenges in fracture three-dimensional modeling. Three main steps included in the fracture three-dimensional quantitative analysis, i.e., fracture intensity modeling, DFN modeling and fracture network properties modeling. It is the most important and the most difficult thing that how to unify the fracture information and research results, how to calculate fracture attributes such as aperture and permeability. This paper has proposed the related solutions and discussions, introduced a method which uses imaging or conventional logging data, dynamic analysis results, seismic detecting data and other data to build fracture intensity model, and uses core fracture data in combination with empirical formulas to build fracture properties models. Combining this method with international fracture modeling software, we can quantitatively describe the three-dimensional distribution of fracture and provide solid support for reservoir study and numerical simulation.
