Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a closed-loop pressure-controlled drilling system, which is used for precise control of wellbore pressure to ensure that the annular pressure profile of the wellbore is at a set value, and belongs to the field of drilling pressure control in oil and gas fields. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the intensification of oil and gas exploration and development, drilling in various complex areas is increasing, and the application of conventional overbalance pressure control technology can no longer meet the needs of complex areas in piedmont, safe drilling in narrow density windows, and H-containing areas. 2 Production requirements such as drilling in S gas layers, shrinkage sticking caused by high-density mud leakage, and well control risks, because the bottomhole pressure control mainly depends on the traditional method, that is, the adjustment of drilling parameters such as controlling the performance of drilling...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. There are two ways to obtain the engineering data (such as pumping flow rate, vertical pressure, well depth and other process parameters) required by the existing MPD system. One is from the reinstalled sensors on the well site equipment, which will lead to The well site sensors are installed repeatedly, and the well site has an integrated mud logging system, or the drilling rig itself has a data acquisition system, so there is no need for repeated wasteful installation; the second is to manually input the key engineering parameters required, such as well depth, etc., which cannot be achieved For the purpose of real-time, the wellhead control pressure calculated by hydraulics is inaccurate, and requires personnel to input data from time to time, which is labor-intensive, and may cause wrong instructions to control casing pressure due to human error, which may lead to drilling accidents. Even if the managed pressure drilling system of some companies is compatible with the integrated mud logging system, it can only be compatible with the integrated mud logging system of a specific data format. application

[0006] 2. At present, if there is a problem with the upper computer, transmission data line or communication of the managed pressure drilling system, the ground pressure execution equipment (back pressure compensation, automatic throttle manifold) will lose the automatic control signal and cannot be automatically controlled, which may cause control failure. Increased well control and equipment risk;

[0007] 3. The surface pressure automatic control system cannot be split into independent units for on-site application. The whole set of equipment must be put on the well site, including back pressure compensation, automatic choke manifold, numerical control room, etc., which is selective for the size of the well site and limits the Its application range; and the on-site debugging after the equipment is manufactured also needs to go to the site, which increases the cost and is inconvenient for equipment debugging; and the current high cost of the managed pressure drilling system limits its popularization and application

[0008] 4. At present, the control of the automatic choke manifold of the domestic and foreign MPD systems adopts the hydraulic control method. The main problems are: 1. The hydraulic choke control can realize automatic control, although the labor of personnel is reduced to a certain extent. strength, but the hydraulic control cannot be improved on the original choke manifold, and the choke manifold must be redesigned and manufactured, resulting in a lot of waste of the existing manual choke manifold; 2. If a foreign hydraulic control cho...
