摘要
Comprehensively using micro-nano CT imaging technology and micro-image mosaic technology, the micro-nano pores in the kerogen are identified to precisely measure core porosity. Firstly, the micro-nano CT images are used to identify the macroscopic connected porosity, isolated porosity and the volumetric fraction of kerogen area (but unable to identify kerogen pores). Then, using SEM or FIBSEM images, the ultra-high resolution imaging is conducted to the kerogen area in the micro-nano CT images, so as to identify the pore space of kerogen. Meanwhile, nine-cell method is used to measure the representative sample points for calculating the mean porosity of kerogen. Finally, the kerogen porosity information obtained under the ultra-high resolution is sent back to the kerogen area in the micro-nano CT image, so as to correct the total macroscopic porosity of micro-nano CT image. This measurement is convenient for operation with no substantial destruction to cores. © 2018, Editorial Office of ACTA PETROLEI SINICA. All right reserved.
