Abstract

The invention discloses an oil well sand prevention method for a heavy oil reservoir, which is applied to heavy oil exploitation in oil fields. The method comprises the following steps of: preparing, namely pulling a production pipe column out, inserting a sand removal pipe column, exploring a sand surface, removing sand, throwing a ball for pressure tests, and pulling the sand removal pipe column out; pigging, cleaning a pipe, washing a well, and pulling a pigging pipe column out; performing sand prevention construction, namely inserting a sand prevention pipe column for magnetic positioning depth calibration; making the pressure tests qualified; performing seat sealing, and opening a filling channel; filling direct circulation sand carrying liquid and quartz sand; washing hands, lifting the sand prevention pipe column upwards and pulling a hand washing pipe column; and inserting an oil exploitation production pipe column into the whole well. The invention has the advantages that: the method is applied to oil well sand prevention and has the one-time success rate of 100 percent, and a single well can be used for continuous production for more than 600 days.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil recovery in oil fields, in particular to a sand control method for oil wells in heavy oil reservoirs. Background technique

[0002] With the deepening of oilfield rolling and edge expansion, some ordinary heavy oil reservoirs appeared. The burial depth of this kind of oil reservoirs is relatively shallow, and some oil wells have serious sand production. Conventional sand control methods cannot solve the problem, resulting in the abnormality of this part of ordinary heavy oil. mining.

[0003] Loose cemented sandstone particles enter the wellbore or carry to the surface with oil and water, which will erode, wear, block deep well pumps and pipelines and ground equipment, or deposit at the bottom of the well, block the oil layer, reduce or stop production of the oil well; even the oil layer collapses, Collapse the casing, leading to overhaul or scrapping of the oil well. During oil production, based on...

Examples

Embodiment

[0026] Example: Well Zhao 41-23. At 50°C, the viscosity is 1892.18mPa.s, the asphaltene content is as high as 47.58%, and the sulfur content is 9.78%. The sand is seriously unable to produce.

[0027] 1. Construction preparation

[0028] A. Pull out the production string: pull out the production string for the normal oil production of the oil well. Production strings include tubing, well pumps and sucker rods.

[0029] B. Run the sand washing pipe string, explore the sand surface and wash sand: Run the sand washing pipe string with ball seat and sand washing pen tip in the downhole casing. The sand washing pipe string includes tubing, ball seat, and sand washing pen tip. The sand washing pipe string connects the oil pipe to the ball seat from the top to the bottom of the wellhead, the lower end of the ball seat is connected to the sand washing pen tip, and the oil pipe, the ball seat, and the sand washing pen point are threadedly connected; pump clean water into the sand wa...
