Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of well logging technology, and in particular to a method, device and equipment for predicting the tension of a well logging cable. Background Art
[0002] When logging equipment is stuck, the winch operator needs to rely on experience and short-term memory to judge the downhole situation and operate the winch to deal with it. The basis for judgment is the normal logging tension estimated by the manual approximate algorithm based on the vertical well model; the manual estimation based on the vertical well model approximate algorithm uses the vertical well as the calculation model. When the instrument depth unit is meter, the value of the depth divided by 2 is added to the value of the instrument weight in kilograms to obtain the value in kilograms; that is, T = deep / 2+mg. Among them, T is the wellhead cable tension, deep is the instrument depth, m is the instrument weight, and g is the acceleration of gravity. For example, if the instrument weight is 500 kg and the instrument depth is 3000 meters, then the estimated tension of the wellhead cable is: 3000 / 2+500=2000 kg; if the instrument weight is 400 kg and the instrument depth is 8000 meters, then the estimated tension of the wellhead cable is: 8000 / 2+400=4400 kg. This algorithm only takes into account the depth and instrument weight factors. It has high accuracy in vertical wells. However, in highly deviated wells, factors such as the friction of the well wall on the cable cannot be ignored. The deviation of its calculation results can reach 15-30%, which can no longer truly reflect the downhole conditions. In some wells, the deviation can even reach 50%, which has no practical application value.

[0053] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for predicting the tension of a logging cable provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The method may include:
[0055] Step 101: Obtain calculation information of the well to be measured; wherein the calculation information includes well information of the well to be measured and model information of the logging instrument and the cable, and the well information includes well depth, well inclination, azimuth, mud viscosity and mud density.
[0056] It is understandable that the well to be logged in this step may be a well that needs to be logged using a logging instrument. The calculation information of the well to be logged in this step may be information required for predicting and calculating the tension of the logging cable corresponding to the well to be logged, that is, information of the well to be logged, the logging instrument and the cable.
[0057] Specifically, the specific content of the calculation information for the well to be logged in this embodiment can be set by the designer according to the usage scenario and user needs. For example, the calculation information can include well information of the well to be logged related to the actual situation of the well to be logged and model information of the logging instrument and cable related to the actual situation of the logging instrument and cable. For example, the above-mentioned well information may include information such as well depth, well inclination and azimuth obtained by analyzing the well inclination and azimuth data file. The well inclination and azimuth data file can provide the drilling team or directional team with data describing the wellbore structure (multi-point data) before logging, which generally includes data such as well depth, well inclination and azimuth; the well information may also include information such as casing program, casing depth, well depth, mud viscosity and mud density obtained by analyzing the well information table. The well information table can be a table that the drilling team will use to provide the well information to be logged, which generally includes data such as casing program, casing depth, well depth, mud viscosity and mud density; the well information may also include the well inclination, azimuth and depth obtained by analyzing the well inclination and azimuth data file, and the vertical depth, displacement, dogleg, solid angle, well inclination change rate and azimuth change rate of each depth calculated; that is, the processor can obtain the well information of the well to be logged by parsing the well inclination and azimuth data file and the well information table. The above-mentioned model information may be information obtained by the processor parsing the model of the logging instrument and the cable, such as the weight (mass) of the logging instrument, the unit weight and unit volume of the cable, etc. The model structure of the logging instrument and the cable may be that the bottom end is the logging instrument, which may be located at the top end of a certain segmented well section, and the cable is located above all segmented well sections above the logging instrument. As long as the processor can obtain the data related to the actual situation of the well to be logged, the logging instrument and the cable required for predicting and calculating the logging cable tension corresponding to the well to be logged, this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0058] Step 102: Divide the well section to be tested into a plurality of segmented well sections; wherein the segmented well sections include a wellhead vertical well section and a well deviation well section.
[0059] It can be understood that the segmented well sections in this step can be the well sections obtained by dividing the well section to be measured, that is, all the segmented well sections can constitute the well section to be measured. The wellhead vertical well section in this step can be the well section without well deviation data (straight well) at the wellhead, and the well deviation well section in this step can be the segmented well sections below the wellhead vertical well section.
[0060] Specifically, the specific manner in which the processor divides the well section to be measured into multiple segmented well sections in this step can be set by the designer according to practical scenarios and user needs. For example, the processor can divide the well section of the well to be measured into multiple segmented well sections according to a preset well section length (such as using a multi-point data depth interval, such as 25 meters); for example, the processor can directly start from the wellhead or the bottom of the well to be measured, and divide the well section of the well to be measured into multiple segmented well sections according to the preset well section length; the processor can also start from the wellhead of the well to be measured, determine the well section where the well inclination is not detected as the wellhead straight well section, and after the well inclination is detected, divide the remaining well section into one or more well inclination well sections by the preset well section length. The processor can also divide the well section of the well to be measured into a preset number of segmented well sections, such as evenly dividing the well section of the well to be measured into a preset number of segmented well sections according to a preset number. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0061] Step 103: Calculate the upper tension of the instrument segment corresponding to the current depth to be predicted using the calculation information; wherein the instrument segment is a segmented well section where the logging instrument is located; wherein the current depth to be predicted is any depth to be predicted.
[0062] It is understandable that the current depth to be predicted in this step can be any depth to be predicted, that is, the depth to be predicted. The instrument segment corresponding to the current depth to be predicted in this step can be the segmented well section where the logging instrument is located when the logging instrument is at the current depth to be predicted of the well to be logged.
[0063] Specifically, this embodiment is demonstrated by taking the prediction of the logging cable tension (i.e., the tension value at the wellhead tension meter) when the logging instrument is at a depth of the well to be logged (i.e., the current predicted depth) as an example; for the prediction of the logging cable tension when the logging instrument is at other depths of the well to be logged, it can be achieved in the same or similar manner as the method provided in this embodiment, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.
[0064] Specifically, the specific method for the processor in this step to use the calculation information to calculate the upper tension of the instrument segment corresponding to the current depth to be predicted can be set by the designer according to practical scenarios and user needs. For example, when the current depth to be predicted is the uppermost depth of any segmented well section, the force condition of the logging instrument can be as follows: Figure 2As shown, including instrument buoyancy (pgv), instrument gravity (mg), cable tension (T1, i.e., upper tension), lateral pressure (N), lateral pressure friction (f), mud additional friction (f1) and open leg additional friction (f2), the processor can use the calculation information to obtain the well inclination of the segmented well section corresponding to the current predicted depth and the first force information corresponding to the logging instrument; wherein the first force information includes instrument buoyancy, instrument gravity, lateral pressure friction, mud additional friction and open leg additional friction; according to the well inclination of the segmented well section corresponding to the current predicted depth and the first force information, the upper tension of the instrument segment corresponding to the current predicted depth is calculated, such as by Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1, T1=mg*cos(dev)+(mg-pgv)*sin(dev)*u+f1+f2 is used to calculate the upper tension of the instrument segment corresponding to the current depth to be predicted; wherein T1 is the upper tension of the instrument segment corresponding to the current depth to be predicted, mg is the instrument gravity, dev is the well inclination of the segmented well section corresponding to the current depth to be predicted, pgv is the instrument buoyancy, (mg-pgv)*sin(dev)*u is the side pressure friction, f1 is the additional friction of the mud, and f2 is the additional friction of the opening leg; wherein the processor can calculate the instrument buoyancy according to the volume (v) of the logging instrument in the model information and the mud density (p) in the well information; according to the model The weight (m) of the logging instrument in the model information is used to calculate the instrument gravity; the side pressure friction force (f) is calculated according to the instrument gravity, the instrument buoyancy, the well inclination (dev) of the segmented well section corresponding to the current predicted depth and the well wall friction coefficient (u) in the well information, that is, f=Nu=(mg-pgv)*sin(dev)*u; the mud additional friction force (f1) is calculated according to the instrument movement speed in the model information and the mud viscosity and wellbore inner diameter in the well information, or the first preset friction force in the well information is determined as the mud additional friction force; the open leg additional friction force is calculated according to the instrument mechanical structure information in the model information, or the second preset friction force in the well information is determined as the open leg additional friction force.
[0065] Step 104: If the instrument segment is not a vertical well section at the wellhead, the upper tension of the current well section is used as the lower tension of the previous well section. According to the upper tension of the instrument segment, the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to the current predicted depth is calculated using the calculation information; wherein the tension value is the upper tension of the vertical well section at the wellhead, the current well section is any well inclination section, the previous well section is the current well section, and the first segmented well section above the current well section.
[0066] It is understandable that in this step, when the instrument segment corresponding to the current predicted depth is not a vertical well segment at the wellhead, the processor can use the upper tension of the current well segment as the lower tension of the previous well segment (i.e., the previous well segment) to cycle with the instrument segment as the starting point (e.g., Figure 4The inner loop shown in the figure calculates the upper tension toward the upper well section until the upper tension of the vertical well section at the wellhead is calculated as the tension value at the wellhead tension meter.
[0067] Correspondingly, in this step, the processor uses the upper tension of the current well section as the lower tension of the previous well section, and uses the calculation information to calculate the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to the current depth to be predicted according to the upper tension of the instrument segment, that is, the upper tension of the current well section is used as the lower tension of the previous well section, and the specific method of cyclically calculating the upper tension of the previous well section can be set by the designer. For example, the processor can determine the segmented well section corresponding to the current depth to be predicted as the current well section; the upper tension of the current well section As the lower tension of the previous well section, according to the lower tension of the previous well section, using the calculation information, calculate the upper tension of the previous well section; determine whether the previous well section is a wellhead vertical well section; if so, determine the upper tension of the previous well section as the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to the current predicted depth; if not, determine the previous well section as the current well section, and execute the steps of using the upper tension of the current well section as the lower tension of the previous well section, and according to the lower tension of the previous well section, using the calculation information, calculate the upper tension of the previous well section.
[0068] Specifically, the specific method for the processor to calculate the upper tension of the previous well section based on the lower tension of the previous well section using the calculation information, that is, the specific method for calculating the upper tension of the previous well section using the upper tension of the current well section, can be set by the designer. For example, the stress condition of the cable in the previous well section can be as follows: Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , including cable buoyancy (pgv), cable gravity (mg), upper cable tension (T2, i.e., the upper tension of the previous well section), cable side pressure (N), cable side pressure friction (f), cable mud additional friction (f1) and lower cable tension (i.e., the lower tension of the previous well section), the processor can use the calculation information to obtain the well inclination of the previous well section (such as Figure 3 Dev in), the solid angle corresponding to the dogleg degree (such as Figure 3 a) in the figure and the second force information corresponding to the cable in the previous well section; wherein the second force information includes the buoyancy of the cable, the gravity of the cable, the side pressure friction of the cable and the additional friction of the cable mud; the upper tension of the previous well section is calculated according to the solid angle corresponding to the well inclination and the dogleg degree of the previous well section, the second force information and the lower tension of the previous well section.
[0069] It is understandable that if Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the processor can predict the tension value of the wellhead cable tension sensor (i.e., the wellhead tension meter) when the logging instrument is at various depths (i.e., the depth to be measured) in the entire well section to be measured. For any depth of the logging instrument that needs to be predicted (i.e., the depth to be measured), the force calculation can be started from the segmented well section (i.e., the instrument well section) where the logging instrument is located, and the upper cable tension (i.e., the upper tension of the previous well section) can be obtained. Then, the cycle calculation (i.e., the inner cycle) of each upper segmented well section can be started, and the calculation is looped until the cable tension at the wellhead, i.e., the tension value at the wellhead tension meter; that is, the first calculation of the inner cycle calculation calculates the tension of the cable of the first segmented well section length at the top of the logging instrument, which is used as the lower tension of the first calculation of the segmented well section where the cable is located; the second calculation of the inner cycle calculation uses the result of the previous cycle calculation as the current calculation result. The calculated lower tension is used to calculate the cable tension on the upper part of the cable in this segmented well section; the third calculation of the inner loop calculation uses the result of the second calculation as the lower tension, and the cycle is repeated to calculate the upper tension of all segmented cables; the last calculation in the inner loop is to calculate the cable without well inclination data (i.e., the wellhead vertical well section) at the top. This section is considered to have zero well inclination and zero dogleg degree, and the cable tension at the wellhead is calculated; at the end of this inner loop, the cable tension at the wellhead when the logging instrument is at a certain depth is obtained; based on the above results, a set of depth (i.e., the depth to be predicted) and corresponding tension value data can be obtained, which can be used as one of the points in depicting the depth-tension curve.
[0070] Correspondingly, the method provided in this embodiment may also include an outer loop corresponding to each depth to be predicted, that is, the processor may cyclically calculate the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to each depth to be predicted, so as to obtain the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to each depth to be predicted; Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the processor can cyclically calculate the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to each depth to be predicted from bottom to top (ie, from large to small depth). For example, the first calculation of the outer loop can calculate the predicted depth of the logging instrument at the bottom of the well to be logged (such as the bottom hole depth or the top depth of the lowest segmented well section), and execute steps 103 and 104 once to obtain the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to the predicted depth; the first calculation of the outer loop can calculate the predicted depth of the logging instrument at the second deepest depth, and execute steps 103 and 104 once to obtain the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to the predicted depth; the outer loop is analogous, and the calculation is continued until the logging instrument reaches the segmented well section without well deviation (that is, the wellhead vertical well section); the last calculation of the outer loop calculates the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to the predicted depth of the logging instrument at the wellhead vertical well section (such as the bottom and / or top depth of the wellhead vertical well section), and obtains the tension values at the wellhead tension meters corresponding to all the predicted depths, and further the data points of all the predicted depths-tension values can be plotted as a depth-tension curve to facilitate subsequent query use.
[0071] That is to say, in order to facilitate the prediction of the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to each depth to be predicted, the depth to be predicted in this embodiment may include the depth of the uppermost end of each well inclination section or the depth of the uppermost end of each segmented well section, so as to reduce the influence of the cable on the calculation of the upper tension of the instrument segment; correspondingly, the depth to be predicted may also include other depths in the segmented well section, that is, the calculation of the upper tension of the instrument segment may also include the force of the cable in the instrument segment, and adopt the same method as Figure 2 and Figure 3 Similar force analysis methods are used for corresponding calculations, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.
[0072] Correspondingly, in this embodiment, after obtaining the tension values at the wellhead tension gauge corresponding to each depth to be predicted, the processor can also draw and generate a depth-tension curve according to the tension values at the wellhead tension gauge corresponding to each depth to be predicted; that is, the processor can use the tension values at the wellhead tension gauge corresponding to all the depths to be predicted to draw and generate a corresponding curve (i.e., depth-tension curve) between the depth to be predicted and the corresponding tension value, to facilitate subsequent query calls.
[0073] Specifically, the specific calculation method of the tension value at the wellhead tension meter corresponding to each depth to be predicted in this embodiment can be set by the designer according to the practical scenario and user needs.
