Problems solved by technology

However, since the downhole three electrodes are three electrodes with the same polarity, and the polarity of the surface electrode is opposite, a current path will still be formed between the downhole electrode and the surface electrode through the well fluid, and the current cannot be converged to the metal pipe string of the accident well. , so that it is impossible to generate converging current on the accident well
[0006] Therefore, the current consumed between the electrodes is unknown, and the resistivity of the combined formation is unknown; thus, even if the total current supplied by the power source is known, it is still impossible to determine the converging current on the metal pipe string of the accident well, which in turn affects the Accuracy of the distance and azimuth between the rescue well and the accident well measured by the secondary field generated by the converging current

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a system and method for detecting an accident well. The system comprises a low-frequency power supply, a mode control switch, a ground electrode, an underground focusing electrode system, a sensor and a ground data processing unit. According to the system, current consumed between electrodes due to the electrical conductivity of drilling fluid in a rescue well is reduced through the method of designing the focusing electrode system, and the electrical resistivity of a stratum can be obtained through the method of adjusting the mode control switch, so that gathered current gathered on a metal pipe column of the accident well is obtained accurately, and the azimuth accuracy of the accident well measured through a secondary field generated by the gathered current is further improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the safety technology of oil exploitation, in particular to a system and method for detecting accidental wells. Background technique [0002] In offshore and land drilling operations, once a blowout occurs out of control, oil and gas resources will be severely damaged, and it is easy to cause fire, causing casualties, equipment damage, oil and gas well scrapping, environmental pollution and many other adverse effects. In the field of oil exploitation, the oil well that has a blowout accident is called an accident well; in order to rescue and control the accident well, the directional well that is designed and constructed in a safe area at a certain distance from the accident well is called a rescue well. After a blowout accident, high-density well killing fluid is usually injected from the rescue well to control and seal the accident well. Therefore, detecting and locating accident wells in rescue wells is one of the key techn...
