Abstract

The invention discloses a thermal recovery well casing material selection method. The casing material selection method comprises the steps of determining the material strength properties and the uniform elongation of a casing material according to the depth of a thermal recovery well; determining the creep rate performance of the casing material according to the steam injection temperature of a wellhead; determining the Bauschinger effect performance of the casing material according to the design life of the thermal recovery well; determining the least low-cycle fatigue strain value of a casing according to the design life of the thermal recovery well and the steam injection temperature of the wellhead; selecting the geometry size and structure characteristics of the casing according to the existing oil industry standards; and selecting the corresponding casing according to the performance indexes, geometry size and structure characteristics of the casing. Multiple performance indexes of the casing material are determined through the well depth, the steam injection temperature of the wellhead, and the design life of the thermal recovery well, and therefore the performance of the casing can be more comprehensively assessed; the casing can meet the production safety requirement on the steam huff and puff working condition; failure caused by plastic deformation of the casing can be effectively avoided; and the normal production of the thermal recovery well is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of petroleum and natural gas heavy oil exploitation, in particular to a method for selecting casing materials of thermal recovery wells. Background technique [0002] Heavy oil is one of the main types of oil and gas resources at home and abroad. Domestically, heavy oil is mainly exploited in Xinjiang, Liaohe, and Shengli Oilfields. The most important technology for heavy oil recovery is steam stimulation operation, and to realize steam stimulation operation, casing is needed to keep the wellbore safe. The casing is the channel connecting the oil layer and the ground, and the thermal recovery well maintains the stability of the wellbore through the casing, so the performance of the casing material is of great significance to the normal production of the oil well. [0003] In the prior art, the method for selecting casing materials for thermal recovery wells takes the yield strength as the main index, including room t...
