Traditional approaches for modeling the anisotropic elasticity response of the highly heterogeneous clay fabric in shale have mainly resorted to geometric factors such as definitions of particles shapes and orientations. However, predictive models based on these approaches have been mostly validated using macroscopic elasticity data. The recent implementation of instrumented indentation aimed at probing nano‐scale mechanical behaviors has provided a new context for characterizing and modeling the anisotropy of the porous clay in shale. Nanoindentation experimental data revealed the significant contribution of the intrinsic anisotropy of the solid clay to the measured elastic response. In this investigation, we evaluate both the effects of geometric factors and of the intrinsic anisotropic elasticity of the solid clay phase on the observed anisotropy of shale at multiple length scales through the development of a comprehensive theoretical micromechanics approach. It was found that among various combinations of these sources of anisotropy, the elastic response of the clay fabric represented as a granular ensemble of aligned effective clay particles with spherical morphology and anisotropic elasticity compares satisfactorily to nanoindentation and ultrasonic pulse velocity measurements at nano‐ and macroscopic length scales, respectively. Other combinations of sources of anisotropy could yield comparable predictions, particularly at macroscopic scales, at the expense of requiring additional experimental data to characterize the morphology and orientations of particles.

A micro-mechanics-based elastic–plastic model is proposed to describe mechanical behaviors of porous rock-like materials. The porous rock is considered as a composite material composed of a solid matrix and spherical pores. The effective elastic properties are determined from the classical Mori–Tanaka linear homogenization scheme. The solid matrix verifies a pressure-dependent Mises–Schleicher-type yield criterion. Based on the analytical macroscopic yield criterion previously determined with a nonlinear homogenization procedure (Shen et al. in Eur J Mech A/Solids 49:531–538, 2015), a complete elastic–plastic model is formulated with the determination of a specific plastic hardening law and plastic potential. The micro-mechanics-based elastic–plastic model is then implemented for a material point in view of simulations of homogeneous laboratory tests. The proposed model is applied to describe mechanical behaviors of two representative porous rocks, sandstone and chalk. Comparisons between numerical results and experimental data are presented for triaxial compression tests with different confining pressures, and they show that the micro-mechanical model is able to capture main features of mechanical behaviors of porous rock-like rocks. 相似文献

Nanomechanics of organic-rich shales: the role of thermal maturity and organic matter content on texture 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0
Despite the importance of organic-rich shales, microstructural characterization and theoretical modeling of these rocks are limited due to their highly heterogeneous microstructure, complex chemistry, and multiscale mechanical properties. One of the sources of complexity in organic-rich shales is the intricate interplay between microtextural evolution and kerogen maturity. In this study, a suite of experimental and theoretical microporomechanics methods are developed to associate the mechanical properties of organic-rich shales both to their maturity level and to the organic content at micrometer and sub-micrometer length scales. Recent results from chemomechanical characterization experiments involving grid nanoindentation and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) are used in new micromechanical models to isolate the effects of maturity levels and organic content from the inorganic solids. These models enable attribution of the role of organic maturity to the texture of the indented material, with immature systems exhibiting a matrix-inclusion morphology, while mature systems exhibit a polycrystal morphology. Application of these models to the interpretation of nanoindentation results on organic-rich shales allows us to identify unique clay mechanical properties that are consistent with molecular simulation results for illite and independent of the maturity of shale formation and total organic content. The results of this investigation contribute to the design of a multiscale model of the fundamental building blocks of organic-rich shales, which can be used for the design and validation of multiscale predictive poromechanics models. 相似文献

Based on the analyses of mineralogical compositions by X-ray diffraction and microstructure by optical microscopy, the Young’ modulus and hardness of a claystone were characterized by the nano-indentation technique and homogenization method. Three distinct microstructural zones are identified in the claystone: clay matrix, a composite matrix of clay and small mineral grains and imbedded quartz grains. The elastic modulus and hardness of different zones were determined by nano-indentation testing. Based on the statistical analysis of nano-indentation results, the spatial mappings and frequency distributions of elastic modulus and hardness of the different zones were obtained. The elastic moduli of main constituent phases of the claystone are then estimated from the nano-indentation tests. These values were further used for the determination of the macroscopic elastic modulus of the claystone using two different homogenization schemes: the dilute scheme and Mori–Tanaka scheme. The predicted values by the homogenization schemes are compared with experimental data obtained from conventional uniaxial compression tests. 相似文献

Establishing the links between the composition, microstructure and mechanics of shale continues to be a formidable challenge for the geomechanics community. In this study, a robust methodology is implemented to access the in situ chemomechanics of this sedimentary rock at micrometer length scales. Massive grids of coupled wave dispersive spectroscopy (WDS) and instrumented indentation experiments were performed over representative material surfaces to accommodate the highly heterogeneous composition and microstructure of shale. The extensive datasets of compositional and mechanical properties were analyzed using multi-variate clustering statistics to determine the attributes of active phases present in shale at microscales. Our chemomechanical analysis confirmed that the porous clay (PC) mechanical phase inferred by statistical indentation corresponds to the clay mineral phase defined strictly on chemical grounds. The characteristic stiffness and hardness behaviors of the PC are realized spatially in regions removed from silt inclusions of quartz and feldspar. At the microscale shared by indentation and WDS experiments, a consistent chemomechanical signature for shale emerges in which the heterogeneities of the PC are captured by the standard deviations of indentation properties and concentrations of chemical elements. However, these local behaviors are of second order compared to the global trend observed for mean mechanical properties and the clay packing density, which synthesizes the relative volumes of clay and nanoporosity in the material. The coupled statistical indentation and WDS technique represents a viable approach to characterize the chemomechanics of shale and other natural porous composites at a consistent scale below the macroscopic level. 相似文献

东营凹陷泥页岩矿物组成及脆度分析 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
对东营凹陷泥页岩矿物组成、脆度进行了系统研究,并与北美页岩进行了对比。研究表明:东营凹陷沙三下和沙四上亚段泥页岩主要由黏土矿物、陆源碎屑矿物（主要指石英和长石）和自生非黏土矿物（主要指碳酸盐和黄铁矿）三部分组成;泥页岩黏土矿物含量平均只有25％左右,远低于海相泥岩和传统观点;石英含量平均为29%,远低于海相页岩;长石含量平均约5％,高于海相泥岩;自生的碳酸盐矿物含量较高,平均约37％;分析认为,陆相盆地面积较小、距物源区近以及相变快是导致研究区泥页岩矿物组成特征的主要原因。鉴于此,提出了新的脆度计算方法并计算了东营凹陷泥页岩的石英脆度、碳酸盐脆度和总脆度。对比发现,碳酸矿物盐含量与泥页岩脆度相关性较好,是影响泥页岩脆度的主要因素。最后指出:研究区泥页岩脆性较好,易于形成天然裂缝或被压裂,是页岩气潜在的有利储层。 相似文献

Many clay rocks have distinct bedding planes. Experimental studies have shown that their mechanical properties evolve with the degree of saturation (DOS), often with higher stiffness and strength after drying. For transversely isotropic rocks, the effects of saturation can differ between the bed-normal (BN) and bed-parallel (BP) directions, which gives rise to saturation-dependent stiffness and strength anisotropy. Accurate prediction of the mechanical behavior of clay rocks under partially saturated conditions requires numerical models that can capture the evolving elastic and plastic anisotropy with DOS. In this study, we present an anisotropy framework for coupled solid deformation-fluid flow in unsaturated elastoplastic media. We incorporate saturation-dependent strength anisotropy into an anisotropic modified Cam-Clay (MCC) model and consider the evolving anisotropy in both the elastic and plastic responses. The model was calibrated using experimental data from triaxial tests to demonstrate its capability in capturing strength anisotropy at various levels of saturation. Through numerical simulations, we demonstrate the role of evolving stiffness and strength anisotropy in the mechanical behavior of clay rocks. Plane strain simulations of triaxial compression tests were also conducted to demonstrate the impacts of material anisotropy and DOS on the mechanical and fluid flow responses. 相似文献

Natural composite materials are highly heterogeneous porous materials, with porosities that manifest themselves at scales
much below the macroscale of engineering applications. A typical example is shale, the transverse isotropic sealing formation
of most hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs. By means of a closed loop approach of microporomechanics modeling, calibration and
validation of elastic properties at multiple length scales of shale, we show that the nanogranular nature of this highly heterogeneous
material translates into a unique poroelastic signature. The self-consistent scaling of the porous clay stiffness with the
clay packing density minimizes the anisotropy of the Biot pore pressure coefficients; whereas the intrinsic anisotropy of
the elementary particle translates into a pronounced anisotropy of the Skempton coefficients. This new microporoelasticity
model depends only on two shale-specific material parameters which neatly summarize clay mineralogy and bulk density, and
which makes the model most appealing for quantitative geomechanics, geophysics and exploitation engineering applications. 相似文献

泥页岩储层岩石力学特性及脆性评价 总被引：7，自引：0，他引：7
泥页岩储层的岩石力学特性对油气开发影响极大,进行泥页岩力学特性和脆性评价方面的研究,可以为泥页岩油钻井和压裂设计工作提供技术支撑。实验研究表明,泥页岩抗压强度与围压、杨氏模量成正相关;体积应变量随杨氏模量减小而增大,随泊松比增加而增加;泥页岩破坏在低围压下以劈裂式破坏为主,高围压时多出现剪切式破坏。泥页岩的脆性与其弹性参数和矿物组成关系密切,通过数值模拟和实验测量,综合弹性参数和矿物组分两种方法提出了一种新的脆性评价方法-弹性参数与矿物成分组合法(EP&MC Method),并实现了单井脆性评价,效果较好。脆性评价既是储层岩石力学特性分析的重要内容,也是压裂选层的重要依据。 相似文献

Despite their ubiquitous presence as sealing formations in hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs affecting many fields of exploitation, the source of anisotropy of this earth material is still an enigma that has deceived many decoding attempts from experimental and theoretical sides. Sedimentary rocks, such as shales, are made of highly compacted clay particles of sub-micrometer size, nanometric porosity and different mineralogy. In this paper, we present, for the first time, results from a new experimental technique that allows one to rationally assess the elasticity content of the highly heterogeneous clay fabric of shales from nano- and microindentation. Based on the statistical analysis of massive nanoindentation tests, we find (1) that the in-situ elasticity content of the clayfabric at a scale of a few hundred to thousands nanometers is almost an order of magnitude smaller than reported clay stiffness values of clay minerals, and (2) that the elasticity and the anisotropy scale linearly with the clay packing density beyond a percolation threshold of roughly 50%. Furthermore, we show that the elasticity content sensed by nano- and microindentation tests is equal to the one that is sensed by (small strain) velocity measurements. From those observations, we conclude that shales are nanogranular composite materials, whose mechanical properties are governed by particle-to-particle contact and by characteristic packing densities, and that the much stiffer mineral properties play a secondary role. 相似文献

基于野外地质和钻井资料,结合相关实验测试结果,对湘西北地区下古生界海相页岩储层特征进行了深入研究,并探讨了页岩甲烷含气性及影响因素。结果表明：牛蹄塘组黑色页岩以深水陆棚斜坡相沉积为主,厚度范围为50~250 m;龙马溪组为闭塞海湾沉积,底部黑色页岩发育。两组页岩有机质类型均属于Ⅰ型,有机碳含量平均为3.57%和1.16%,热演化程度较高,平均达2.61%和2.08%。受沉积环境和成岩作用影响,两组页岩均具有高石英、低黏土、少量碳酸盐矿物的组成特征。页岩储集空间可划分为3大类：矿物基质孔、有机质孔、微裂缝。受有机质和黏土矿物等因素影响,页岩内部孔隙结构参数各不同,但主体上孔径小于50 nm的微孔和中孔提供了大部分比表面积和孔体积,为气体存储主要场所。牛蹄塘组页岩甲烷最大吸附量平均为1.98 cm3/g;龙马溪组页岩甲烷最大吸附量较低,为1.16 cm3/g。其中有机质与黏土矿物对页岩甲烷吸附量均有一定的贡献,而过高的成熟度和含水量可导致页岩吸附能力下降。 相似文献

黏土矿物组构对水化作用影响评价 总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6
泥页岩水化过程中黏土矿物起着主要的作用,但目前还缺少相关的定量描述研究。为此,利用SEM、X-粉晶衍射技术,对采自不同地区的泥岩和板岩在干燥状态、不同浸泡时间后的微观结构和含量进行分析及研究,分析黏土矿物的组构随浸泡时间的变化过程,并定量地分析其对水化过程的影响规律,研究泥页岩的软化过程。研究认为,（1）泥页岩、板岩中影响水化过程的内在因素是蒙脱石、高岭石、绿泥石和伊利石等黏土矿物的含量;（2）黏土矿物定向排列时水化作用效果较无序排列时的明显;（3）泥页岩的水化作用是一个渐进的过程,即在水化过程中流体介质首先使表面的黏土矿物软化,产生掉块;随着时间延长,流体沿裂缝、层理面向岩石内部渗透,黏土土矿物发生膨胀;无围岩限制作用时坍塌掉块持续发生;（4）泥浆中加入一定的无机盐有助于抑制水化过程的发生;压力增加将抑制水化过程的产生;温度升高则能促进泥页岩的水化过程。 相似文献

In this paper the macroscopic elastic properties of injected or cemented sands are derived from the characteristics of the constituents and the analysis of the microstructure using a multi‐scale modelling approach. Particular interest is given to the choice of the representative elementary volume, by relying on existing microstructural data. The periodic homogenization is adopted and required numerical solutions are performed by the finite element method. An assessment of the validity of the multi‐scale approach is achieved through comparison with theoretical and experimental results on cemented and injected granular media reported in the literature. The capabilities of the model are also used to investigate the influence of geometrical and mechanical microscale parameters on the macroscopic behaviour of the treated materials.

As the two important components of shale, organic matter(OM) and clay minerals are usually thought to strongly influence the hydrocarbon generation, enrichment and exploitation. The evolution process of OM and clay minerals as well as their interrelationship over a wide range of thermal maturities are not completely clear. Taking Yanchang(T_3y), Longmaxi(S_1l) and Niutitang(?_1n) shales as examples, we have studied the microstructure characteristics of OM and clay minerals in shales with different thermal maturities. The effects of clay minerals and OM on pores were reinforced through sedimentation experiments. Using a combination of field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM) and low-pressure N_2 adsorption, we investigated the microstructure differences among the three shales. The results showed that both OM and clay minerals have strong effects on pores, and small mesopore(2–20 nm) is the dominant pore component for all three samples. However, the differences between the three samples are embodied in the distribution of pore size and the location. For the T_3y shale, clay minerals are loosely arranged and develop large amounts of pores, and fine OM grains often fill in intergranular minerals or fractures. Widespread OM pores distribute irregularly in S_1l shale, and most of the pores are elliptical and nondirectional. The ?_1n shale is characterized by the preferred orientational OM-clay aggregates, and lots of pores in the composites are in the mesopore range, suggesting that over maturity lead to the collapse and compaction of pores under huge pressure of strata. The results of the current research imply that with increasing thermal maturity, OM pores are absent at low maturity(T_3y), are maximized at high maturity(S_1l) and are destroyed or compacted at over-mature stage(?_1n). Meanwhile, clay minerals have gone through mineral transformation and orientational evolution. The interaction of the two processes makes a significant difference to the microstructure evolution of OM and clay minerals in shale, and the findings provide scientific foundation in better understanding diagenetic evolution and hydrocarbon generation of shale. 相似文献

The Sardar Formation (Carboniferous) has a lithological variation that is characterized by sandstone, shale and limestone members. Shales of the Sardar Formation from the east central Iran have been analyzed for major elements and a number of trace elements. The shales of Sardar Formation are rich in quartz minerals and clay minerals of the bulk minerals. Clay minerals of shales are composed of illite, kaolinite and slightly montmorillonite. SiO2 versus K2O/Na2O diagram shows these shales plotted in the passive continental margin or cratonic field. Geochemical data suggest high acidic source rocks similar to granite and intermediate igneous rocks. CIA and ICV suggest semi-humid climatic conditions during depositions and indicate high chemical weathering in the source area. The geochemical parameters such as V/Cr, Ni/Co and Cu/Zn ratios indicate that these shales were deposited in oxic environment. 相似文献

Optical, cathodoluminescence and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analyses were conducted on four groups of calcite fault rocks, a cataclastic limestone, cataclastic coarse-grained marbles from two fault zones, and a fractured mylonite. These fault rocks show similar microstructural characteristics and give clues to similar processes of rock deformation. They are characterized by the structural contrast between macroscopic cataclastic (brittle) and microscopic mylonitic (ductile) microstructures. Intragranular deformation microstructures (i.e. deformation twins, kink bands and microfractures) are well preserved in the deformed grains in clasts or in primary rocks. The matrix materials are of extremely fine grains with diffusive features. Dislocation microstructures for co-existing brittle deformation and crystalline plasticity were revealed using TEM. Tangled dislocations are often preserved at the cores of highly deformed clasts, while dislocation walls form in the transitions to the fine-grained 相似文献
