Abstract

A quantitative calculation method for oil (gas) saturation of fractured reservoir during petroleum exploitation is provided. The method comprises: obtaining the fracture porosity and calculating resistivity index at different depth of fractured reservoir with known full diameter core data and imaging logging data; establishing the percolation network model of matrix and fracture combination with known pore structure feature; calibrating the numerical simulation results obtained from percolation network model based on the data of core experiment and sealed coring analysis results, then obtaining the relationship between the resistivity index (I) and water saturation (Sw) at different fracture porosity; calculating the oil (gas) saturation of fractured reservoir through selecting an interpolation function. The oil (gas) saturation calculated with said method is 0.67, however 0.49 with common method in some fractured reservoir. The accuracy is improved by more than 0.18 in the studied fractured reservoir.
