The Measurement of Shale Gas Content

Abstract:

The gas content is critical parameter in the shale gas exploration and production. The direct method was used to determine the shale gas content and the apparatus were made by ourselves. It were described the gas content test procedure, mathematic model and data processing in the paper. The adsorb gas and residue gas can be directly obtain from test, and the lost gas was estimated by the initial rate of adsorb gas. The shale gas contents from Sichuan basin are from 1.15 to 1.84 m3/ton, the average value is 1.64 m3/ton. Lost gas is the major gas in the shale and increasing with the lost time. Consequently, the shale should be sealed in the canister as soon as possible to decrease the lost time during the test. It also can enhance the accuracy of gas content. There are a great member of nano-pore and fracture in the organic matter, so that more TOC of shale are more gas content.
