Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of petroleum drilling engineering, in particular to a method for calculating the surface angle of a gravity tool of an inclinometer while drilling based on a small-range MEMS acceleration sensor. Firstly, the sensitivity of MEMS accelerometer and fluxgate is less than 1mg and 5nT respectively at room temperature. The sensitivity of MEMS accelerometer and fluxgateis less than 5nT. Acquired data on well deviation (INC), azimuth (Az) and magnetic dip (Lambda) under static conditions are preserved; the mathematic model of sensor orthogonal calibration is established. The values of acceleration sensor and fluxgate component are calculated according to the traditional algorithm and the algorithm provided in step c, and stored in two arrays. The results show that the acceleration sensor and the fluxgate component are in good agreement with each other. After several fixed time periods, the standard deviation of the data in the two arrays is calculated respectively, and the data at the end of the arrays with relatively small standard deviation is selected as the real calculation value of the gravity tool face angle. The invention greatly improves the application range of the small-range MEMS acceleration sensor and reduces the cost of the MWD system.

Description

Background technique [0002] At present, the measurement while drilling (MWD) system has become an indispensable part of the field of petroleum drilling engineering, and the acquisition of downhole data is the most important thing. In geological exploration, in order to be able to determine the lateral dip and dip azimuth of the formation, it is necessary to continuously measure the dip and dip azimuth of the wellbore and the azimuth of the downhole tool as a reference mark. In order to make the wellbore trajectory consistent with the design, it is inevitable to adjust the corresponding well deviation or azimuth during the drilling process. At this time, it is necessary to be able to accurately and real-time monitor the ...
