Abstract: This study systematically investigates the reaction characteristics of laminated shale oil reservoirs in the 73 sub-member of the Yanchang Formation, Heshui area, Ordos Basin, under exposure to CNI-I nanoviscous fracturing fluid. The reservoir matrix comprises 84.85% brittle minerals and 15.15% clay minerals. Fluid–rock interactions significantly dissolve calcite and dolomite, releasing Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions, while clay mineral reactions liberate substantial amounts of Na+. Post-reaction, fluid system stability is markedly reduced, elevating the risk of precipitate formation and pore-throat plugging. Exposure to fracturing fluid reduces the T2 cutoff value of core samples from 3.29 ms to 1.72 ms, indicating a densification of the micro-pore-throat network and a decline in mobile fluid saturation, while fracture apertures exhibit widening. Based on empirical data, a discriminant criterion (R value) defined as the ratio of fracture aperture increment rate to pore-throat diameter reduction rate is established at 1.25, confirming that fracture propagation dominates over pore constriction. Dual-medium modeling yields a net permeability enhancement of 19.35%. Fluid–rock interactions induce overall degradation of rock mechanical properties with pronounced anisotropy: rock strength along the direction perpendicular to bedding declines by 37.546%, Young's modulus decreases by 1.81%, and Poisson's ratio increases by 0.02%—all significantly exceeding the degree of degradation parallel to bedding. This anisotropic mechanical degradation predisposes the near-wellbore region to shear slip and wall spalling, prompting the development of targeted engineering mitigation strategies.
