Abstract: Organic-rich shale reservoirs usually have complex mineral compositions and pore system in a small scale. This study presents a workflow of the fracture properties and anisotropy parameter inversion of shales based on the rock physics model and improved particle swarm optimization algorithm. A two-pore system for fractured shales was built through applying the self-consistent equivalent medium theory and Chapman's multi-scale porosity model. This inversion workflow can be used to estimate multi-parameter simultaneously by utilizing the simulated annealing-based particle swarm optimization algorithm. The intelligence algorithm has the ability to find global optimization and fast convergence. The workflow was applied in the Longmaxi shale-gas reservoir in the Sichuan basin to estimate the aspect ratio of pores, fracture density, and anisotropy parameters. The result is consistent with the existing research and provides diversified information for the shale reservoir evaluation.

Key words: shale reservoir, fracture properties, anisotropy, Chapman's model, particle swarm optimization algorithm, Sichuan basin
