Device and method for evaluating influence of pressure change on completeness of cement sheath

Abstract

The invention provides a device and a method for real simulation of underground environments, completeness maintaining of experiment equipment, and accurate and omnibearing evaluation of completeness of a cement sheath. The device mainly comprises an upper end cap, a lower end cap, an outer pipe, a middle pipe, the cement sheath, a sleeve pipe, a long source distance sector cement bond logging instrument (SBT (segmented bond tool)) and a high-temperature and high-pressure kettle. The method comprises the following steps of utilizing the high-temperature and high-pressure kettle to simulate the stratum temperature pressure of the curing and forming of the cement sheath; loading and unloading an inner annulus and an outer annulus, so as to simulate the actions of change of well shaft pressure and stratum pressure on the cement sheath under the actual working condition; utilizing a transmitting probe and a receiving probe of the SBT to continuously transmit and receive acoustic wave signals, and performing the omnibearing and high-resolution compensation type attenuation rate measurement, so as to obtain the bonding qualities of a first interface and a second interface of the cement sheath of the well cementing cement sheath under the actual stratum environment, and the amounts, sizes and bearings of cracks and channeling in the cement sheath. The device and the method have the advantage that the underground environment can be really simulated in the omnibearing way, so as to accurately and efficiently evaluate the completeness of the well cementing cement sheath, provide the new method and basis for indoor cement slurry evaluation systems and sites to take the targeted measures, and improve the well cementing quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of oil and gas well cementing cement sheath integrity detection, in particular to a device and method for evaluating the influence of downhole pressure changes on cement sheath integrity. Background technique [0002] In the drilling process of oil and natural gas, the purpose of cementing is to seal off the formation, strengthen the wellbore, and establish a flow channel with good sealing performance in the well, so as to ensure the continued safe and efficient drilling, and to ensure the post-operation (oil testing, stimulation operations, etc. ) and normal production. To achieve the above cementing purposes, the cement sheath between the formation and the outer wall of the casing needs to maintain good integrity. Among them, the cementation quality of the first interface (the interface between the cement sheath and the casing) and the second interface (the interface between the cement sheath and the formation) and...

At present, in the field of cement sheath integrity testing, the FMA7150 air channeling evaluation instrument developed by American Kindle Company can simulate the process of cement slurry dehydration and air channeling, but due to the influence of the structure and performance of the instrument, it cannot truly simulate cement The anti-channeling experiment of the ring under the action of high formation pressure and wellbore pressure in the downhole; "a simulation test device for preventing gas channeling in the later stage of cementing" proposed by the domestic CNPC Chuanqing Drilling Engineering Co., Ltd., and the CNOOC proposed "A method for simulating cementing failure caused by pressure changes" and other devices and methods have been improved for the shortcomings of FMA7150, which can simulate the gas channeling experiment of the cement sheath under the action of high formation pressure and wellbore pressure in the downhole

However, the above-mentioned experimental devices and methods still have relatively large limitations: (1) In this method, gas is injected at one end of the cement sheath, and whether gas is detected at the middle position in the height direction of the cement sheath or at the other end of the cement sheath is used as a judgment. Whether there are micro-annulus, cracks, channeling between the cement sheath and the casing, and the criteria for evaluating the integrity of the cement sheath. However, this method
