Quantitative Fracture Characterization Method and its Application in the Bashijiqike Formation

We describe a statistical method for determining the fracture parameters and the vertical and lateral distribution of these parameters. We examine the correlation between the fracture properties and the filtration characteristics: permeability and deliverability. The grid method is an accurate and efficient tool that makes it possible to describe the surface density of fractures in the core. The parameters determined from the core can be used to calibrate the results from interpretation of well logging data, in order to sufficiently accurately determine the nature of the change in the parameters across the entire wellbore. We have established that the permeability and deliverability of the deposits clearly depends on the fracture spacing and the fracture surface density within the Dabei block of the Kuqa depression.
