The granite buried hill gas reservoir in YL area of Qiongdongnan basin faces a serious problem of solid production, which seriously affects gas well production and reduces economic benefits; however, the solid production mechanism of fractured granite reservoirs is still unclear. In this study, the reasons for solid production were revealed and the mechanism was clarified based on the analysis of geological and mechanical characteristics of the granite buried hill reservoir. The solid production of fractured granite reservoirs can be divided into three modes, those being shedding of fracture filling and solid particles on the fracture wall, shear slip failure along the fracture, and shear failure of granite matrix. Take the YL area in the Qiongdongnan Basin as an example, the solid production of fractured granite reservoirs is mainly based on shedding of fracture filling and solid particles on the fracture wall and shear slip failure along the fracture, the possibility of shear failure of granite matrix is less. In addition, the closer the wellbore, the greater the risk of shedding of fracture filling and solid particles on the fracture wall. The high-angle fractures have a greater risk of shear slip failure. In addition, the direction of the minimum horizontal principal stress is higher risk of solid production. The research provides the basis and foundation for safe and efficient development of fractured granite reservoirs and for later measure selection and optimization.
