Shale gas refers to unconventional natural gas resources that mainly accumulate in dark shale formation and mudstone rich in organic matter, in the form of adsorption or free state. Shale gas has unconventional characteristics such as rapid decline in production and fast pressure decay, whichexposes challenges such as poor adaptability or turn-down ratio of the surface facilities, difficulty in planning the surface facilities engineering, high capital cost in surface equipment, and long construction duration during the development of shale gas field surface facilities engineering. Therefore, based on the overview of the surface facilities development of the CN shale gas field, this paper analyzes the difficulties in the surface development of the CN shale gas field, divides the facilities groups based on surface development interface, and proposes a set of "rolling development + wellhead facilities + six engineering standardisations" mode of development suitable for the CN shale gas field. ( The six engineering standardisations include standard process design for surface facilities, standard modular design for different process groups, standard skids design for equipment systems, standard equipment system sizes for different categories of process duties, digitalisation of operation management and integrated design of process systems. )The study optimizes the surface facilities development mode, shortens the construction cycle, lowers the capital cost for surface facilities engineering. From the good application experience on CN shale gas field, this development mode provides reference for the surface facilities engineering design and development of domestic shale gas fields.
