A Well Killing Method After Gas Drilling Blowout

Abstract

Provided is a well-killing method after gas drilling blowout. The method comprises following steps: installing a conventional drilling pump and a throttle manifold; connecting the other pressure-regulating pump to a valve of the throttle manifold; calculating allowable pressure of the maximum wellhead; regulating wellhead pressure to the allowable pressure of maximum wellhead by the throttle valve and by connecting the pressure-regulating pump of the throttle manifold; opening the drilling pump for well killing; recording the time well killing liquid takes to reach a drill bore and resultant annulus pressure of a hydrostatic column; and determining relations of pressure of throttle valve and pressure of the hydrostatic column and formation pressure in order to decide the throttle pressure regulation or redesign of well killing. The well-killing method after gas drilling blowout is very suitable for a working condition without any drilling fluid in a well so that the problem that scrubbed gas is throttled with difficulty during the initial phase of well killing is effectively solved. Therefore, establishment of pressure of the hydrostatic column for killing fluid in a shaft is accelerated and well-killing success is achieved. The well-killing method after gas drilling blowout does not need special equipment, is easily operated and suitable for on-site application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a well killing method after a gas drilling well encounters a high-yield gas layer, and belongs to the technical field of petroleum drilling well control. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the national economy, my country's demand and dependence on oil and natural gas energy is increasing day by day. At present, traditional mud drilling is the most mature application in oil drilling. It uses conventional drilling fluid to keep the bottom hole pressure slightly higher than the formation pressure for drilling. The mechanical drilling speed is slow, which will cause damage to the production layer and affect the subsequent oil (gas) production. Quantity, it is not easy to find defects such as new production layers. Underbalanced drilling can effectively solve this problem, especially in gas drilling, which uses gas as a circulating medium, which can effectively break rocks while avoiding reservoir pollutio...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

When gas drilling encounters a high-yield gas layer, after injecting the killing fluid, due to the complex multiphase flow in the well, it becomes difficult to establish a killing fluid column in the well. At present, there is no systematic well killing method suitable for gas drilling, so it has become a well A difficult point in the field of control
