  In order to serve the research of shale gas reservoir gas content and improve the prediction effect of shale gas reservoir gas content, this paper compares the factors influencing the gas content of shale gas reservoir and general prediction methods, and carries out the analysis of the factors influencing the gas content of shale gas and the response of sensitive logs in M1 well area, determines the main controlling factors of shale gas content, and establishes the prediction model of shale gas content in the well area on this basis. In order to improve the prediction accuracy, the CatBoost algorithm was introduced to build a shale gas content prediction model in the study area and compared with the measured gas content for verification; meanwhile, to verify the applicability of the model, the log data of the neighboring well F1 in the M1 well area were imported into the model to calculate its gas content and compared with its measured gas content for verification. The results show that the main influencing factors of shale gas content in M1 well block are total organic carbon content and pore specific surface area, etc. In the conventional shale gas content prediction model, adsorbed gas and free gas are calculated separately, and the summed gas content is larger than the measured gas content; the highest accuracy of multiple regression analysis is 0.702. The accuracy of the shale gas content prediction model established by applying CatBoost algorithm with well logging and testing data as input features and corresponding measured gas content as output labels is 0.986, which is better than the conventional algorithm; the model also has a higher accuracy in predicting the shale gas content of the neighboring well F1 in M1 well area.

Introduction</title><p>Shale gas refers to a kind of unconventional natural gas that is mainly located in organic shale and its thin interbed (sandstone, siltstone, high-carbon shale, etc.), and occurs in adsorption, free and dissolved state [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref1">1</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref2">2</xref>] . Shale gas content is a key parameter for shale gas resource evaluation and target optimization, and an important standard for evaluating whether shale has exploitation value. Accurate prediction of shale gas content is particularly important for shale gas exploration and development. The influencing factors of shale gas content are complex [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref3">3</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref4">4</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref5">5</xref>] . The total organic carbon content, mineral content, porosity and water saturation all affect shale gas content to varying degrees. The size of gas content is the result of the comprehensive action of various factors.</p><p>At present, the methods used to evaluate shale gas content mainly include: field analysis, logging calculation, seismic inversion, experimental simulation, etc. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref6">6</xref>] . The on-site analytical method can characterize the actual gas content of shale, but it is difficult to reasonably obtain the lost gas content. The experimental simulation isothermal adsorption method can obtain the theoretical adsorption capacity of shale by simulating the natural gas adsorption process, but it cannot reflect the actual gas content. Rick (2004) put forward a calculation model suitable for shale isotherm adsorption gas in the study area based on Lance isotherm adsorption equation; Chen Kang, Zhang Jinchuan (2016) took the shale of Longmaxi Formation in western Hunan and Hubei as the target layer, established a linear relationship between the data obtained from isothermal adsorption experiment and the TOC content, and obtained the adsorption gas content fitting equation. The common method to calculate shale gas content based on logging data is to calculate the content of adsorbed gas and free gas respectively, and then add the two to get shale gas content [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref6">6</xref>] . Zhang Zuoqing et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref7">7</xref>] , Zhao Jinzhou et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref8">8</xref>] and Wen Kang [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref9">9</xref>] have successively improved the calculation method of adsorbed gas content, obtained the free gas content based on physical properties parameters, and added the two to get the total gas content, thus improving the prediction accuracy of shale gas content. In addition, some scholars directly establish a statistical relationship between logging, seismic and other parameters and gas content to predict shale gas content. Nie Haikuan [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref10">10</xref>] established a multiple regression equation based on shale reservoirs in Sichuan Basin to calculate shale gas content in the area; Zhang Yong [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref11">11</xref>] predicted shale gas content in the study area based on a deep neural network, which improved the prediction accuracy of shale gas content; Liu Jun [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref12">12</xref>] introduced the grey correlation analysis method to evaluate the gas-bearing property of shale reservoir; Sun Jianmeng (2014) proposed the calculation model method of shale adsorbed gas volume based on the research results of coalbed methane. Domestic and foreign scholars have made a lot of beneficial explorations and achieved many important results in the calculation of gas content in shale reservoirs, but the previous calculation methods and prediction models are restricted by certain use conditions and requirements.</p><p>In recent years, machine learning methods have been widely used in various geological parameter modeling. Chen Yuanyuan et al. predicted the total organic carbon content in western Chongqing based on particle swarm optimization support vector machine algorithm, and achieved good results [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref13">13</xref>] ; Wang Jintao et al. predicted logging curves based on CNN-GRU neural network algorithm [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref14">14</xref>] ; Based on two machine learning methods, Yang Zhanwei and others predicted the TOC content of shale from Wufeng Formation to Longmaxi Formation in South Sichuan and achieved good results [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref15">15</xref>] . Machine learning plays an important role in effectively improving the accuracy of data analysis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref16">16</xref>] . As a kind of machine learning, CatBoost algorithm belongs to the integrated learning model based on the tree structure, which can effectively avoid over-fitting. The greedy combination and sorting promotion method used by CatBoost algorithm can enhance the data generalization ability, maximize the effective utilization of data, reduce the weight of abnormal data, and greatly improve the reliability and consideration of the model. Logging information has the advantages of good continuity and high vertical resolution. Combining CatBoost algorithm with logging information can achieve accurate data training and optimize geological parameter modeling.</p><p>Based on the analysis of the factors affecting the shale gas content in the study area, this paper applies the conventional prediction method and CatBoost algorithm to predict the shale gas content respectively, so as to optimize the prediction method, with a view to finding a fast and accurate method to predict the shale gas content in the study area using logging data, thus providing a new idea for the calculation of the shale gas content in the study area.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2. Overview</title><p>Well block M1 is located in the southeast of North China Block, and is bounded by Taihang Mountain, Zhongtiao Mountain, Huoshan Mountain and Mount Wutai respectively. It is a composite syncline formed in Yanshanian period under the Mesozoic compression background of the North China Plate, which is generally distributed in the direction of near NNE. See <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Figure 1</xref> for the geographical location of Well M1. In the Triassic system, the study area is in the stage of stable structural development and evolution, and a set of sandstone, siltstone, shale and other sand-shale interbedding strata have been deposited, with a large thickness of 800 - 2000 m. The shale interval developed in the Triassic system is the potential shale gas interval of the Carboniferous-Permian coal-bearing series, forming a good cap rock. The tectonic deformation conditions in the study area are weak, which is relatively favorable for the preservation of shale gas.</p><p>The Upper Paleozoic Carboniferous-Permian shale is widely developed in the study area, and shale gas has great exploration potential [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref17">17</xref>] . The coal measures of the Shanxi Formation in the area develop typical marine and continental transitional facies shale, which is developed in the delta plain peat swamp deposits under the epicontinental marine sedimentary background, and transits from the delta estuary bar to the delta plain facies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref18">18</xref>] . The instability of the sedimentary environment makes the lithological strata in the study area complex, mainly composed of mudstone, siltstone and sandstone, consisting of several cycles of gray shale, silty shale with white quartz sandstone and coal seams, alternating frequently, and often with coal lines. The vertical lithology changes greatly, the thickness is unstable, and the continuity is poor, which is “sandwich” superposition. The study area has a high abundance of organic matter, with an average TOC value of 2.98%, which has a strong hydrocarbon generation potential. The type of organic matter in the study area is mainly type III. The main body of shale reservoir is in the mature-high mature stage. The maturity of organic matter Ro is 2.56% on average. The organic matter has entered the dry gas window, generating a large amount of methane, which is conducive to the formation of shale gas reservoirs. The coal-measure shale reservoir of marine and continental transitional facies has the characteristics of low porosity and low permeability, and the pore type and pore structure are relatively complex, which is quite different from marine shale. The shale gas content in the area is 0.12 - 1.21 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, with an average of 0.629 cm<sup>3</sup>/g, reaching the lower limit of shale gas industrial development.</p></sec><sec id="s3"><title>3. Factors Affecting Gas Content of Shale Reservoir</title><sec id="s3_1"><title>3.1. Influencing Factors and Mechanism of Shale Gas Content</title><p>The influencing factors of shale gas content are very complex. From the macro and micro perspectives, the influencing factors of shale gas content can be sorted into the following aspects (<xref ref-type="table" rid="table1">Table 1</xref>).</p><p>The content of total organic carbon is one of the most fundamental factors affecting the content of shale gas. It is not only the source base of shale gas generation, but also the core carrier of shale gas occurrence, which determines the gas content and hydrocarbon generation potential of shale. Therefore, the higher the content of total organic carbon, the greater the hydrocarbon generation potential and the higher the gas content. The organic matter maturity of shale reaches a certain degree and enters the gas window, which is the premise for shale formation to become a potential exploration target. With the high maturity of organic matter, the gas yield increases with the increase of gas yield; Clay minerals are another important carrier of shale gas, and have strong adsorption on gas. However, the stratum with high clay mineral content is relatively soft, which is not conducive to fracture development and shale gas exploitation; Shale gas is also mainly adsorbed on the pore surface of organic matter, and large specific</p><table-wrap id="table1" ><label><xref ref-type="table" rid="table1">Table 1</xref></label><caption><title> Influencing factors and mechanism of shale gas content (according to literature [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref3">3</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref4">4</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref5">5</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref6">6</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref19">19</xref>] - [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref34">34</xref>] )</title></caption><table><tbody><thead><tr><th align="center" valign="middle"  colspan="2"  >Influence factors</th><th align="center" valign="middle" >Impact mechanism</th></tr></thead><tr><td align="center" valign="middle"  rowspan="3"  >Macro factors</td><td align="center" valign="middle" >Rock type</td><td align="center" valign="middle" >The adsorption capacity of shale and silty mudstone is relatively high, while that of fine siltstone and limestone is relatively low; Siliceous shale and carbonaceous shale are conducive to the occurrence of shale gas.</td></tr><tr><td align="center" valign="middle" >Temperature and pressure</td><td align="center" valign="middle" >With the increase of formation temperature, the gas content decreases; As the formation pressure increases, the gas content increases.

The temperature of shale reservoir mainly affects the adsorption capacity of shale. Due to the exothermic adsorption process, as the temperature of shale reservoir increases, the gas gradually desorbs, the adsorption capacity decreases, and the gas content decreases. The presence of water in shale will not only reduce the gas adsorption capacity, but also reduce the gas storage space, thus reducing the shale gas content.</p></sec><sec id="s3_2"><title>3.2. Analysis of Factors Affecting Shale Gas Content in M1 Well Block</title><p>The shale in M1 well area is a marine and continental alternating facies shale system. The instability of its sedimentary environment makes the lithology and physical properties of the target layer vary greatly in the vertical direction. Therefore, based on the core test data of different depths collected and collated in the M1 well block, this paper makes a statistical intersection between the shale gas content and the formation temperature (refer to the logging well temperature data), clay mineral content, total organic carbon content, specific surface area, porosity and vitrinite reflectance (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Figure 2</xref>) to analyze their correlation.</p><p>It can be seen from <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Figure 2</xref> that the gas content in the study area has a positive correlation with the total organic carbon content, clay mineral content, porosity and specific surface area, and a weak negative correlation with the formation temperature and vitrinite reflectance. Among them, the correlation between gas content and total organic carbon content is the strongest, followed by specific surface area, and the correlation between other parameters is relatively poor. Therefore, the main control factors affecting the shale gas content in the study area are the total organic carbon content and pore specific surface area, and the total organic carbon content has a relatively strong impact.</p></sec></sec><sec id="s4"><title>4. Calculation Method and Principle of Shale Gas Content</title><p>At present, shale gas content calculation methods are mainly divided into two types. One is direct method, including analytical method based on laboratory core testing and analysis. Its calculation accuracy is relatively high, but it is subject to the influence of core quantity and analysis and test cost; The second is the indirect method, including the addition method of calculating the sum of adsorbed gas and free gas respectively, and the mathematical statistical model method based on the gas content of core test and logging data. The regression analysis method and nonlinear mathematical method belong to the mathematical statistical model method, and the model accuracy depends on the number of statistical samples and their representativeness.</p><sec id="s4_1"><title>4.1.

CatBoost Algorithm to Calculate Shale Gas Content</title><p>1) Principle of CatBoost algorithm</p><p>CatBoost (Category Boosting) algorithm is an integrated learning model based on tree structure [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref35">35</xref>] , which is an implementation of Boosting strategy. Since in the decision tree, the label average value is used as the criterion for node splitting, the expression is [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref36">36</xref>] :</p><p>x ^ k i = ∑ j = 1 n I { x j i = x k i } y j ∑ j = 1 n I { x j i = x k i } (8)</p><p>where: x k i is the i-th category feature of the k-th training sample; y j for No j forecast tags; I is the indicator function.</p><p>The algorithm is based on a certain eigenvalue x k i when there is only one record, it is easy to cause over-fitting. The CatBoost model uses symmetric trees to establish mirror nodes. When calculating node gain, a priori value Q is used to reduce low-frequency category noise. The priori value Q is set as the average value of the prediction label in the data set, and it is given weight μ. It is helpful to reduce the impact of abnormal data on the overall data and improve the reliability and consideration of the model. The expression formula is:</p><p>x ^ k i = ∑ j = 1 n I { x j i = x k i } y j + μ Q ∑ j = 1 n I { x j i = x k i } + μ (9)</p><p>where: Q is the added priori, μ is a priori weight, and the value is greater than 0.</p><p>This greedy method will cause prediction bias (bias) problem in each step of gradient upgrading [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref36">36</xref>] . CatBoost algorithm is improved by using the ordered boosting method, that is, by randomly generating a training sample with the order of [1, n], and the number of random sorting is σ. To train n different models M 1 , ⋯ , M n , M i only the first i samples in the array are used to learn the model [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.124381-ref37">37</xref>] . This process can enhance the robustness of the algorithm and reduce noise interference.</p><p>In addition, CatBoost algorithm can continuously adjust the weight of each input feature during training, and the measurement formula is as follows:</p><p>J j 2 = 1 M ∑ m = 1 M J j 2 ( T m ) (10)</p><p>where: M is the number of iterations; J j 2 represents the global importance of feature j; T<sub>m</sub> is the decision tree of m nodes.</p><p>Therefore, CatBoost can ensure that all data sets can be used for training and learning by using sorting and upgrading, and can enhance the generalization ability, which can maximize the effective utilization of data compared with the strict splitting of data sets; CatBoost algorithm uses greedy combination, which can effectively improve the prediction accuracy. However, as a kind of machine learning, CatBoost algorithm model builds learning training based on a large number of data, and the accuracy of the model increases with the amount of training data.

Conclusions and Prospect</title><p>1) The influencing factors of shale gas content are complex. The correlation between shale gas content and total organic carbon content in well block M1 is the strongest, followed by the correlation with specific surface area. The main control factors of gas content are total organic carbon content and pore specific surface area. The size of gas content is the result of the comprehensive effect of various factors.</p><p>2) Shale gas content calculation methods are mainly divided into direct method and indirect method. In the conventional shale gas content prediction model of M1 well block, the calculation result of additive method is too large and the accuracy is low. The calculation accuracy of regression analysis method is 0.702, which needs to be improved. Using logging data and test data, the prediction accuracy of the shale gas content prediction model established by CatBoost algorithm for M1 well block shale gas content is 0.986, the prediction effect for its adjacent wells is ideal, and the application effect of the model is good.</p><p>3) Intelligent analysis has become a powerful tool for modern mathematical analysis and has unique advantages in solving complex nonlinear problems. It is an inevitable trend for future geological research to apply it to a wide range of geological parameter modeling and logging data processing, and also an important direction for the future development of shale gas-bearing evaluation research.
