Casing leakage point depth detecting method and device for oil extraction well

Abstract

The invention discloses a casing leakage point depth detecting method and device for an oil extraction well. According to the method, after fluid in a wellbore of the oil extraction well reaches a quiescent state, tagged particles are added into the wellbore, and the moment t when the tagged particles are added is recorded; then a decompression valve is opened to enable the annular pressure at a casing leakage point of the oil extraction well to be lower than the wellbore pressure of the oil extraction well, the purpose that the tagged particles can be sprayed out through the leakage point in a casing along with the fluid in the wellbore at a fast speed and impact the inner wall of an intermediate casing and the outer wall of an oil-string casing is ensured, and then impact signals on the casing walls are collected; the impact signals are compared and analyzed in real time through a computer, and the moment t1 in the impacting signals including the signals of impacting of the tagged particles on the casing walls is recorded and judged; and then the distance from a well mouth of the oil extraction well to the leakage point of the casing is calculated according to the formula (please see the specifications for the formula), so that quick and effective depth detecting of the casing leakage point is achieved, complexity and high cost of casing leakage point depth detecting are lowered, and assistance is provided for safe production of the oil extraction well.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of oil and gas development, in particular to the technical field of casing leak point depth detection, and in particular to a casing leak point depth detection method and device for oil production wells. Background technique [0002] With the continuation of the oil field development time, due to external force and chemical attack, the oil production casing may have problems such as dislocation, perforation, corrosion, rupture, etc., which will have a great impact on the increase and stability of the oil field, and even cause the oil well to stop production and be scrapped. to high economic losses. Therefore, when the casing is damaged, it is of great significance to find and determine the depth of the leakage point in time for the remedial and maintenance work of oil and gas wells. [0003] At present, there are many theories and methods for oil production casing leakage detection...

Problems solved by technology

These detection methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, the electromagnetic method can analyze and calculate the change of the casing material, corrosion, cracks and other information based on the change of the induced electromotive force, and determine the damage of the casing. However, the detection cost is high and the true shape of the pipeline cannot be simulated. ; The mechanical caliper method can measure many independent caliper information, but it canno...
