Embodiment 1

[0072] This embodiment provides a method for controlling the drilling trajectory of a horizontal well in a target oil layer with a dip angle of 0°. The method is specifically as follows:

[0073] According to the geological interpretation of the seismic profile of the target oil layer, when it is inferred that the oil layer dip angle of the target oil layer is 0°, the drilling tool assembly and the gamma logging equipment installed at the rear end of the drill bit are lowered to control the drill bit to drill into the rock formation, and the value of the upper gamma curve is determined. When the range is 75API-200API and the value range of the lower gamma curve is 45API-74API, it can be judged that the drill bit is close to the target oil layer O. Further, when the value range of the upper gamma curve is 45API-74API, it can be judged that the drill bit drilled into the target oil layer O from point A1. According to the geological design plan and the design requirements of the ...

Embodiment 2

[0076] This embodiment provides a method for controlling the drilling trajectory of a horizontal well in a target oil layer with a dip angle of 2°. The method is specifically as follows:

[0077] According to the geological interpretation of the seismic profile of the target oil layer, when it is inferred that the oil layer dip angle of the target oil layer O is 2°, the drilling tool assembly and the gamma logging equipment arranged at the rear end of the drill bit are lowered, and the drill bit is controlled to drill into the rock formation, and wait for the upper gamma curve. When the value range is 75API-200API, and the value range of the lower gamma curve is 45API-74API, it can be judged that the drill bit is close to the target oil layer O. Further, when the value range of the upper gamma curve is 45API-74API, it can be judged that the drill bit drilled into the target oil layer O from point A2. According to the geological design plan and the design requirements of the bo...

Embodiment 3

[0080] This embodiment provides a method for controlling the drilling trajectory of a horizontal well in a target oil layer with a dip angle of -2°. The method is specifically as follows:

[0081]According to the geological interpretation of the seismic profile of the target oil layer, when it is inferred that the oil layer dip of the target oil layer is -2°, the drilling tool assembly and the gamma logging equipment installed at the rear end of the drill bit are lowered, and the drill bit is controlled to drill into the rock formation. When the value range is 75API-200API and the value range of the lower gamma curve is 45API-74API, it can be judged that the drill bit is close to the target oil layer O. Further, when the value range of the upper gamma curve is 45API-74API, it can be judged that the drill bit drilled into the target oil layer O from point A3. According to the geological design plan and the design requirements of the borehole trajectory, as well as the change an...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for controlling the drilling track of a flagstone oil and gas reservoir horizontal well, and belongs to the field of petroleum and natural gas exploitation. The methodfor controlling the drilling track of the flagstone oil and gas reservoir horizontal well includes the steps that after a target oil layer is determined, a drilling tool assembly and gamma well logging equipment arranged at the rear end of a drill bit are tripped in, and whether the drill bit drills in the target oil layer or not is judged according to the value domain of a gamma curve detected by the gamma well logging equipment; after the drill bit drills in the target oil layer, the drill bit is controlled to alternately drill at a first designated angle and a second designated angle according to the value domain of the gamma curve detected by the gamma well logging equipment until the drill bit penetrates out of the target oil layer; and each of the first designated angle and the second designated angle is the acute angle between the drilling track of the drill bit and the axis of the target oil layer. By means of the method, the well track can be located in the middle of the target oil layer, and on the premise of saving time and labor, the exploitation efficiency of oil and gas can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of petroleum and natural gas exploitation, in particular to a method for controlling the drilling track of a horizontal well in a thin sandstone oil and gas reservoir. Background technique [0002] Thin sandstone oil and gas reservoirs refer to oil and gas layers with a thickness less than 3m, and the oil and gas layers are mostly horizontal oil and gas layers. With the deepening of exploration and development of oil and gas fields in my country, thin sandstone reservoirs have become exploration targets. The horizontal well drilling trajectory control method is the key to ensure the success of horizontal well drilling. Therefore, it is very necessary to provide a horizontal well drilling trajectory control method for thin sandstone oil and gas reservoirs. [0003] In the related technology, according to the geological interpretation of the seismic section obtained from the geological well in the oil field to be explo...
