A quantitative scoring and optimization method of a drilling and completion loss-control material includes: extracting key performance parameters of drilling and completion loss-control materials in loss-circulation zone, sequencing the key performance parameters according to their importance; performing weight calculation on the key performance parameters of the loss-control material by an analytic hierarchy process; determining scores of the key performance parameters of conventional loss-control materials according to an experimental evaluation table of the performance parameters of the loss-control materials; calculating comprehensive scores of all loss-control materials and performing optimal selection on the loss-control materials according to the comprehensive scores. The present disclosure provides a quantitative evaluation table of performance parameters of the loss-control materials, and an optimal selection method of the loss-control materials for different loss-control formations according to the analytic hierarchy process.

The invention relates to a selection method of loss control materials for lost circulation control in fractured reservoirs based on photoelastic experiments. By using the photoelastic material to simulate rigid lost circulation material, obtaining photoelastic images and load curves during a loading process of plugging zones formed by the lost circulation material, selecting the lost circulation material according to structure stability of plugging zones. Based on 'a relationship between structures and performances' and granular matter mechanics, the present method is with high reliable to duly observe distribution and evolution of internal forces in a pressure-bearing process of plugging zones, reveal an instability mechanism of the plugging zone, and optimize the lost circulation material in a targeted manner; the present disclosure based on mesoscopic structure characterization of plugging zones is for a new idea for material selection of deep fractured reservoirs, of good repeatability, simple operation and low economic cost.
