Leaders from the North China Oil & Gas Branch of Sinopec visited and conducted a research tour at the Wide-Field Electromagnetic Fracturing Monitoring R&D Base of the Sichuan Institute of Resource Geophysics.
On January 13, 2023, Luo Yi, a senior expert from the North China Oil & Gas Branch of Sinopec and deputy director of the Petroleum Engineering Technology Research Institute, along with a research and investigation team composed of members from the Institute’s Production and Technology Office, the Institute’s Safety and Environmental Protection Research Institute, and the Institute’s Reservoir Modification Research Institute, visited the Wide-Area Electromagnetic Fracturing Monitoring R&D Base of the Sichuan Resource Geophysical Exploration Institute for an inspection and study trip.
Dean Luo and his delegation first toured the instruments and equipment in the R&D base’s technology exhibition hall, and then listened to a briefing on the wide-area electromagnetic fracturing monitoring technology and methods.
Yu Changheng, Deputy General Manager of the Geophysical Exploration Institute, provided a detailed introduction to the institute’s achievements in wide-area electromagnetic fracturing monitoring already attained domestically, as well as the ongoing research efforts conducted in collaboration with Hunan Jishan High-Tech Co., Ltd.
Dean Luo stated that this technology has received the First Prize of the National Invention Award for Science and Technology, as well as numerous provincial-level science and technology awards. It is backed by a strong technical support team, and he believes that this method and its associated technology are indeed feasible. He also expressed hope that the wide-area electromagnetic fracturing monitoring technology could effectively address the issues of the extent of fracturing fluid propagation in three dimensions and the vertical extension of fractures. Furthermore, he hopes to accelerate the real-time generation of monitoring maps, enabling real-time guidance of fracturing operations and providing reference data for adjusting fracturing parameters.
Based on this field investigation and the results of the previously collaborated Ordos Fracture Monitoring Project, the two parties will once again sign a framework agreement, enabling wide-area electromagnetic fracture monitoring technology to provide even better services for oil and gas exploration and development by Sinopec North China Oil & Gas Branch.
