Problems solved by technology

In view of the serious annular pressure problem caused by the leakage of the pipe string, the production pipe string can only be pulled out to find out the leakage path and replace with a new production pipe string
For the above methods, the former requires regular monitoring and release, and the operation is troublesome. At the same time, there is a possibility that the leak point will aggravate the pressure of the annular space due to erosion due to repeated pressure release flow.
The latter needs to shut down the well and stop production, which is complex and costly

Embodiment Construction

[0035] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, purposes and effects of the present invention, the specific implementation manners of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] The invention provides a method for controlling gas well annulus with pressure (such as figure 1 , figure 2 As shown, in the natural gas well, the gas well annulus 3 is formed between the production string 1 and the casing string 2, the production string 1 is set with a packer 4, and the gas well annulus 3 above the packer 4 is the original Annulus protection fluid 5, set the depth of the liquid surface of the original annulus protection fluid 5 as z l A casing head gate valve 31 is arranged at the wellhead of the gas well, and the casing head gate valve 31 is arranged in communication with the annulus of the gas well, and the gas well annulus 3 can be depressurized through the casing head gate valve 31 . When a leak po...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for governing annulus pressure of gas wells. The method is to supplement and inject a gas well annulus of a gas well with annulus pressure with supplemental annulus protecting fluid with density greater than the produced gas through the ground, which can prevent the produced gas in a producing pipe column of the gas well from leaking into the gas well annulus, and reduce the gas well annulus pressure of the gas well with the annulus pressure. The method can eliminate pressure in the gas well annulus without the gas well stopping production, keep the gas well stable in a long term, and improve the safety of natural gas well production operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of production safety control and management of natural gas wells, in particular to a method for controlling pressure in the annulus of gas wells. Background technique [0002] After the completion of the natural gas well, according to the structural characteristics of the well body, the production string, the A annular space, the B annular space, and the C annular space are sequenced from the inside to the outside. The space inside the production pipe string is the flow channel for natural gas production, and the production pipe string is an important safety barrier to ensure the safe flow of high-pressure natural gas to the ground. With the increase of the development time of the gas field, a series of damages such as corrosion and perforation of the production pipe string, failure of the seal of the packer, and leakage of the screw thread will occur in the production string, and then the high-pressure natu...
