  • In order to realize the efficient development for horizontal well in Sulige Gas Field and improve the ultimate gas recovery, the applicability of volume fracturing horizontal well were analyzed based on the mechanism of volume fracturing. By the method of numerical simulation of horizontal well, the conventional fracturing (3 Section) and volume fracturing (3 Section 2 clusters, 3 Section 3 clusters, 3 Section 4 clusters and 3 Section 5 clusters) were simulated compared two methods for fracturing. The results show that it has a relatively high content of quartz, natural microfracture development, low permeability in Sulige Gas Field, which can meet the basic conditions of implementing volume fracturing. According to the characteristic of gas reservoir,the rectangular impermeable lithological boundary were introduced to the conventional fracturing and volume fracturing model, and the flow velocity of gas to direction of crack was greatly slowed down. The stable period was longer than conventional fracturing, when volume fracturing was with same volume production and different number of the cluster scheme. At different stable final or at the end of 10, the volume of the fracturing degree of recovery increased with the increasing of clustersnumber. When production was 80 000 m3, volume fracturing advantages was more obvious compared with conventional fracturing. Pressure spread was made uniform by volume fracturing in fracture network, which can avoid the low pressure phenomenon caused by long time exploring.
