Abstract

The invention discloses a measuring method for flow imaging of an oil well. The measuring method includes axially arranging a plurality of measuring electrode retaining collars and shielding electrode retaining collars on an oil well wall of to-be-measured fluid; sequentially selecting one electrode in each measuring electrode retaining collar to serve as an exciting electrode, and exciting the exciting electrode and electrodes adjacent to the periphery of the exciting electrode to generate a fascicular electromagnetic field; sequentially selecting one electrode, two electrodes away from the exciting electrode, in each measuring electrode retaining collar to serve as a receiving electrode to receive response signals of fluid media; and processing the response signals received by each electrode of each measuring electrode retaining collar to generate flowing parameters and images of the cross section of the to-be-measured fluid. The measuring method is applicable to various situations of high and low water containing; scanning and measuring can be performed on the flowing cross section of multi-phase fluid repeatedly, so that soft field effects of common electric measurement can be overcome, the fluid media can be identified with high resolution, and interference on original flow of the multi-fluid fluid in the well is small; and the measuring method has the advantages of strong real-time performance, zero damage, low cost, simplicity in using and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The patent of the invention belongs to the application of geophysical logging technology, and relates to an electromagnetic measurement method for dynamic monitoring of oil and gas well production and multiphase pipe flow imaging detection, specifically an imaging measurement method for oil and gas well flow. Background technique [0002] Oil and natural gas are stored in oil and gas layers thousands of meters deep underground, and are extracted through drilling. Oil and gas production well sections are generally provided with round steel casings or screens, and the angle is vertical, inclined or horizontal to the ground plane. Due to formation water or water injection development, the wellbore is often two-phase or three-phase flow of oil, gas and water. By using logging instruments to monitor the multiphase flow profile of the production well section, we can understand the production status of oil and gas layers, and take scientific and reasonable t...
