Abstract

A data processing method includes: collecting test data of a target rock sample in different gas adsorption experiments; the test data including pore sizes and pore volumes corresponding to the pore sizes and including at least two selected from the group consisting of the test data with pore sizes less than 3 nm in CO2 adsorption experiment, the test data with pore sizes in 1.5 nm to 250 nm in N2 adsorption experiment and the test data with pore sizes in 10 nm to 1000 μm in high-pressure mercury adsorption experiment; and fitting the test data in overlapping ranges of the pore sizes using a least square method, and obtaining target pore volumes corresponding to the pore sizes respectively. The accuracy of joint characterization of shale pore structures can be improved by using mathematical methods to process the data in overlapping ranges of pore sizes among different characterization methods.
