Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of gas storage construction and carbon dioxide injection technology in oilfield development in the petroleum industry, and specifically to a high-frequency injection-production string and completion method for a compressed air energy storage vertical-inclined well. Background Art
[0002] Compared with traditional ground storage facilities, underground gas storage has the characteristics of large storage capacity, strong mobility, wide peak shaving range, long service life and high safety factor. The gas storage reservoirs built in the world today are mainly divided into four types according to the characteristics of underground gas storage layers, namely depleted oil and gas reservoir gas storage, aquifer gas storage, salt cavern gas storage, and abandoned mine gas storage. The stored gas is mainly natural gas, and its function is basically the same as that of a natural gas storage reservoir, both of which play the role of temporarily storing energy and regulating supply and demand during peak hours. However, due to different stored energies, the injection-production capabilities required for the injection-production wells in the two are quite different.
[0003] For natural gas storage reservoirs, since the supply and demand peaks of the stored natural gas are usually in the cold winter and spring seasons, injection is mainly carried out for injection-production wells in the hot summer and autumn seasons, and production is mainly carried out in the winter and spring seasons. The injection-production string works in one working state for a long period of time, and the stress alternating frequency is relatively low. Therefore, the working requirements for the packers in the string are relatively low. Conventional airtight packers can meet its working needs. For example, the following patented technologies: "Injection-production string and completion method using the same" disclosed in the authorized announcement number CN112647857B and "A completion string for an injection-production well in an oil and gas reservoir type gas storage" disclosed in the authorized announcement number CN206205797U both use packers for anchoring and sealing.
[0004] At the same time, since the natural gas in the reservoir of the natural gas storage reservoir does not require secondary energy conversion, and both injection and production are natural gas, the requirements for the gas displacement, flow rate, etc. in the injection-production string are also relatively low.
[0005] The energy stored in an air energy storage type gas storage reservoir is electric energy. The peak period of electric energy use is during the day, and the low period is at night. Therefore, it performs one access and storage per day to play the peak shaving function, and the injection-production frequency is relatively high. At the same time, the existing air in the gas storage reservoir is only a transmission medium during the energy conversion and storage process. The air energy storage type gas storage reservoir requires a turbine for secondary energy conversion. Therefore, it has high requirements for the gas purity, flow rate and displacement in the injection-production string.
[0006] The gas storage reservoirs with air storage built in China now are all of the salt cavern type. The underground reservoir is relatively clean and does not produce formation sand, so there is no need to consider the problem of formation sand production, and only the problems of scaling and corrosion of the injection-production string need to be considered.
[0007] If a compressed air energy storage cavern is established in a depleted oil and gas reservoir, the reservoir contains not only air, water vapor, etc., but also sand is more likely to be produced from the formation. If the injection-production string used in a salt cavern energy storage cavern is adopted for production, the problem of sand control in the injection-production wells in the cavern cannot be solved.
[0008] If the injection-production well string in a depleted oil and gas reservoir for storing natural gas conventionally is adopted in a compressed air energy storage cavern, the actual demand for the long-life operation of the injection-production wells in the cavern under the condition of high-frequency stress alternation cannot be met, as described in articles such as "Research on the Dynamic Characteristics of Fluid-Induced Vibration and Buckling of Injection-Production Strings in Energy Storage Caverns" and "Buckling Behavior of Oil Tubes in Energy Storage Caverns under Multi-Cycle Injection-Production Conditions".
[0009] Therefore, a new type of injection-production string is urgently needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: (1) The injection-production string provided by the present invention realizes the efficient anchoring of the injection-production string by adopting a downhole combined sealing device, solving the problem that the slips in the previous packer anchoring are prone to looseness and failure under the condition of high-frequency injection-production stress alternation. At the same time, the injection-production string provided by the present invention can also be used in wells for injecting carbon dioxide.
[0032] (2) The injection-production string provided by the present invention has a backwashing function. After the normal injection-production cycle ends, the scale and wax in the tubing can be cleaned by back-circulating the washing fluid with a cleaning function, realizing maintenance without pulling the string, reducing the conventional operation cost and time, prolonging the service life of the injection-production string, and improving the working efficiency of the gas storage reservoir.
[0033] (3) The inner cylinder of the sealing working barrel in the present invention has a backwashing function by itself. When a blowout occurs, it is easier to kill the well by back-circulation, effectively reducing the difficulty of killing the well during a blowout and improving the safety factor of the injection-production well in terms of process principle.
[0034] (4) Compared with the packer used in the existing string, the working principle of the downhole combined sealing device in the present invention is simple and reliable. While improving the anchoring and sealing ability, it enhances the safety of the entire string and tools. The provided backwashing process channel significantly reduces the probability of downhole accidents caused by scale blockage or wax blockage in the string after the injection-production well is put into production.
[0035] (5) The injection-production string provided by the present invention realizes the requirement of blowout prevention in the casing-tubing annulus while ensuring the smoothness of the backwashing channel of the injection-production string by adopting a downhole annulus flow-limiting device, improving the safety of the entire injection-production string.
[0036] (6) Through the backwashing process channel of the present invention, it becomes possible to inject and replace the casing protection fluid infinitely, which can well prevent corrosion in the casing-tubing annulus of the well, reduce the requirement for the material of the completion casing, and greatly save the completion cost.
[0037] (7) The completion method provided by the present invention can test the reliability of the injection-production string in each step of the completion process, preventing the injection-production string with potential hazards from entering the well.
[0038] In summary, while improving the safety of the entire string, the present invention provides a backwashing process channel, significantly reducing the probability of downhole accidents caused by scale blockage in the tubing and the requirement for the material of the casing, prolonging the service life of the injection-production string, and improving the working efficiency of the gas storage reservoir. It has good economic and social benefits and has great promotion potential. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0057] See Figures 1-13 , a vertical and inclined well high-frequency injection and production string for compressed air energy storage, which is provided with an oil pipe and a downhole safety valve 6. Among them: the injection and production string is successively connected with a downhole combined sealing device, a downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4 and a downhole safety valve 6 from bottom to top through the oil pipe. The downhole combined sealing device is formed by inserting a preset working cylinder 1 and a sealing working cylinder 2; in the preset working cylinder 1, a preset locking ring 1-2 with a buttress thread is installed between a preset upper outer cylinder 1-1 and a preset lower outer cylinder 1-3. The preset upper outer cylinder 1-1 is connected to the preset lower outer cylinder 1-3, and the preset working cylinder 1 is pre-lowered into a preset position in the well together with the completion string; the sealing working cylinder 2 includes a sealing component mainly composed of a sealing insertion cylinder 2-7 and a sealing assembly 2-10 and an inner cylinder 2-1; the inner cylinder 2-1 is provided with a backwashing hole 2-101 and a backwashing control hole 2-104, and the outer circle of the limiting step three 2-107 in the inner cylinder 2-1 is machined with a buttress thread; the sealing working cylinder 2 is connected to the lower end of the injection and production string and lowered into the preset working cylinder 1. The inner cylinder 2-1 cooperates with the buttress thread in the preset locking ring 1-2. The sealing insertion cylinder 2-7 seals the sealing insertion cavity of the preset lower outer cylinder 1-3, and the sealing assembly 2-10 seals the sealing cavity of the seal of the preset lower outer cylinder 1-3; the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4 is provided with a cup leather 4-6 and a central tube 4-2. A flow-limiting plate 4-10 with an interleaved converging flow channel is fixed in a flow-limiting plate installation groove 4-2-1 in the wall of the central tube 4-2, and a setting hole 4-2-2 and a setting boosting hole 4-2-4 are arranged in the wall without the flow-limiting plate installation groove 4-2-1; above the upper pushing cylinder limiting step 4-2-6 of the central tube 4-2, a flow-limiting device sliding cylinder 4-3, a cup leather 4-6 and an upper pushing cylinder 4-7 are successively installed from top to bottom; a flow-limiting device limiting ring 4-5 with a locking ring 4-4 installed is installed in the flow-limiting device sliding cylinder 4-3 above the cup leather 4-6, and the locking ring 4-4 is installed in a locking ring groove 4-2-3 on the outer circle of the central tube 4-2; the upper pushing cylinder 4-7 is in buttress thread cooperation with a flow-limiting device locking ring 4-8 installed in a locking ring installation groove 4-2-5 of the central tube 4-2.
[0058] The downhole combined sealing device in the present invention consists of two parts, namely a preset working cylinder 1 and a sealing working cylinder 2, which are used in cooperation. The inner wall of the preset locking ring 1-2 in the preset working cylinder 1 is machined with a buttress thread, and the upper end is also machined with a locking ring torque transmission spline 1-21 that matches the upper outer cylinder torque transmission spline 1-11 in the preset upper outer cylinder 1-1. The two achieve the torque transmission function through spline fitting. The buttress thread on the inner wall of the preset locking ring 1-2 is closely fitted with the buttress thread in the inner cylinder 2-1 to achieve the axial one-way locking function.
[0059] According to the technological requirements, when the cup 4-6 in the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4 is set, when the liquid flow passes through the setting hole 4-2-2 in the tubing and enters the gap between the flow-limiting device sliding cylinder 4-3 and the flow-limiting device limiting ring 4-5, after pushing the flow-limiting device sliding cylinder 4-3 to move upward, the cup 4-6 is released from the flow-limiting device sliding cylinder 4-3; as the liquid entering through the setting boosting hole 4-2-4 makes the upper pushing cylinder 4-7 move upward and presses the cup 4-6 tightly in the tubing-casing annulus, the sealing between the flow-limiting device sliding cylinder 4-3 and the casing is achieved. At this time, the backwashing operation can be carried out through the staggered converging flow channels in the flow-limiting plate 4-10.
[0060] When the bottom-hole pressure rises and a blowout occurs, the well fluid surges upward through the staggered converging flow channels in the flow-limiting plate 4-10 below the device of the present invention and is blocked, effectively slowing down the flow velocity of the well fluid and weakening the intensity of the blowout, thus winning precious time for the blowout control work on the ground.
[0061] The flow-limiting plate 4-10 in the device is provided with staggered converging flow channels and is fixed in the flow-limiting plate installation groove 4-2-1 in the wall of the central tube 4-2.

[0071] A preferred embodiment: The middle locking ring 2-8 is provided with a central hole and internal threads on its inner circle. After the middle locking ring 2-8 is sleeved outside the inner cylinder 2-1, the internal threads on its inner circle are threadedly connected to the connecting threads 2-109 of the middle locking ring, providing support for the sealing insertion cylinder 2-7; The sealing assembly 2-10 is a combined seal, which at least includes a sealing ring and protective rings made of polytetrafluoroethylene respectively installed on both sides of the sealing ring. The outer diameter of the sealing ring is greater than the inner diameter of the sealing cavity of the sealing member in the preset lower outer cylinder 1-3; The sealing pressure ring 2-11 is threadedly connected to the connecting threads of the spare parts at the lower part of the limiting step five 2-110, and a lower pressure ring 2-12 and a soluble plug are also connected below the sealing pressure ring 2-11. It further provides a pressing and locking force for the sealing assembly 2-10 and the sealing pressure ring 2-11 and prevents the sealing pressure ring 2-11 from loosening.
[0072] A preferred embodiment: The inner circle of the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3 is processed with two inner diameters that are smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. The small inner diameter section is installed outside the limiting step one 2-103 of the inner cylinder 2-1, and the large inner diameter section is installed outside the limiting step two 2-106; Both inner diameters of the inner circle of the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3 are precision machined surfaces; In the normal working state of the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3, the small inner diameter section blocks the backwashing hole 2-101, and the large inner diameter section communicates with the backwashing control hole 2-104. During the processes of backwashing the well, pumping casing protection fluid into the annulus between the casing and the tubing, and reverse circulation killing the well, under the action of pressure difference, the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3 moves downward to expose the backwashing hole 2-101, forming a backwashing channel; The backwashing control hole 2-104 discharges the liquid in the inner cavity of the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3 into the tubing to prevent the formation of a dead cavity when the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3 moves downward and hinder the downward movement of the working cylinder sliding cylinder 2-3.

[0075] After the sealing working barrel 2 is inserted into the preset working barrel 1, the sealing insert barrel 2-7 and the sealing assembly 2-10 cooperate with the corresponding sealing surfaces in the preset working barrel 1 to achieve the sealing of the annulus between the tubing and the casing. At the same time, the buttress threads on the outer wall of the limiting step three 2-107 of the inner barrel 2-1 in the sealing working barrel 2 cooperate with the preset locking ring 1-2 in the preset working barrel 1 to achieve axial anti-retreat locking. In addition, a part of the pressing tonnage of the injection-production string is transmitted to the disc spring 2-5 through the sealing insert barrel 2-7. The disc spring 2-5 compresses and stores a certain tonnage of pressure to prevent the buttress threads from creeping within the range of one pitch.
[0076] The disc spring 2-5 stores energy due to the downward pressure of the injection-production string, which can always ensure the tension force of the cooperation between the buttress threads in the preset working barrel 1 and the sealing working barrel 2, and reduce the damage of the sealing assembly 2-10 caused by the creeping of the injection-production string. The sliding sleeve 2-3 is in a closed state during normal operation. When the injection-production string needs to conduct reverse circulation well washing, pump in casing protection fluid or encounter downhole overflow accidents, washing fluid or kill fluid can be pumped into the annulus between the tubing and the casing to provide a process channel for the cleaning or kill operation of the injection-production string.
[0077] A preferred embodiment: see Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10 , the cup leather 4-6 is installed in the flow-limiting device sliding barrel 4-3 and the lower part is located between the flow-limiting device sliding barrel 4-3 and the upper pushing barrel 4-7.

The two ends of the flow-limiting device upper outer cylinder 4-9 are respectively threadedly connected with the connecting thread 4-2-7 in the central tube 4-2 and the flow-limiting device lower outer cylinder 4-11. The lower push cylinder 4-12 and the flow-limiting device spring 4-13 are installed in the flow-limiting device lower outer cylinder 4-11. The limit cylinder 4-14 is installed below the flow-limiting device spring 4-13 and is threadedly connected with the flow-limiting device lower outer cylinder 4-11. At least one washing and blowout prevention liquid passing groove 4-14-1 is arranged in the limit cylinder 4-14. The water and liquid coming from below the annulus flow-limiting device cannot enter above the annulus flow-limiting device through the lower push cylinder 4-12, and the water and liquid coming from above the annulus flow-limiting device can push open the lower push cylinder 4-12 tightened by the flow-limiting device spring 4-13 and enter below the annulus flow-limiting device.
[0083] Preferred embodiment: Refer to Figure 11, the inner circle of the lower outer cylinder 4-11 of the flow-limiting device is a non-uniform-diameter inner circle, and the internal threads at both ends are respectively threadedly connected to the upper outer cylinder 4-9 and the limiting cylinder 4-14 of the flow-limiting device; an inner conical mating surface 4-11-1 is provided between the two outer non-uniform-diameter inner circles of the lower outer cylinder 4-11 of the flow-limiting device, and this inner conical mating surface 4-11-1 is a lower inclined surface.
[0084] A preferred embodiment: Refer to Figure 12 , the lower push cylinder 4-12 is a non-uniform-diameter cylindrical body, the upper outer wall of the lower push cylinder 4-12 is an outer conical mating surface 4-12-1, this outer conical mating surface 4-12-1 is an upper inclined surface and can cooperate with the inner conical mating surface 4-11-1 in the lower outer cylinder 4-11 of the flow-limiting device, and at least one sealing ring groove is machined in the outer conical mating surface 4-12-1; the flow-limiting device spring 4-13 is installed in the inner cavity below the spring limiting step 4-12-2 in the lower push cylinder 4-12.
[0085] A preferred embodiment: Refer to Figure 13 , the upper outer circle of the limiting cylinder 4-14 is provided with an external thread and can be threadedly connected to the lower outer cylinder 4-11 of the flow-limiting device; the washing-aid anti-spray overflow groove 4-14-1 provided in the outer wall of the limiting cylinder 4-14 is a through groove up and down and at least one is provided; the upper outer cylinder 4-9 of the flow-limiting device is a non-uniform-diameter cylindrical body, and the internal and external threads in the upper and lower ends of the cylindrical body can be respectively threadedly connected to the continuous thread 4-2-7 of the central pipe 4-2 and the lower outer cylinder 4-11 of the flow-limiting device, and the lower inner cavity of the upper outer cylinder 4-9 of the flow-limiting device after being connected to the central pipe 4-2 is communicated with the limiting plate installation groove 4-2-1. In the annulus flow-limiting device, sealing elements are provided in the sealing mating surfaces between components.
[0086] The washing-aid anti-spray mechanism connected to the lower part of the central pipe 4-2 adds an additional guarantee for the backwashing well of this device and the limited spraying and throttling during a blowout. The backwashing well water from above the device can increase the pump pressure, push open the lower push cylinder 4-12, and spray and flush into the oil-casing annulus from the washing-aid anti-spray overflow groove 4-14-1 for reverse circulation well washing.
[0087] When the downhole pressure increases and a blowout occurs, due to the sealing of the cup leather 4-6 and the internal and external conical mating surfaces in the lower outer cylinder 4-11 and the lower push cylinder 4-12 of the flow-limiting device, the incoming water and liquid cannot return upward from the washing-aid anti-spray overflow groove 4-14-1 of the limiting cylinder 4-14; if the washing-aid anti-spray mechanism fails due to some reason and the internal and external conical mating surfaces in the lower outer cylinder 4-11 and the lower push cylinder 4-12 of the flow-limiting device cannot be sealed and the one-way flow control function cannot be realized, the liquid flow can only pass through the staggered converging flow channels of the flow-limiting plate 4-10. When the liquid passes through the staggered converging flow channels, due to the impact of the liquid flow directions in the main channel groove 4-10-1 and the auxiliary channel groove 4-10-2 on each other, the upwelling flow rate and pressure are greatly reduced, buying more time for the ground staff to prevent blowout.
[0088] A preferred embodiment: Centralizers 8 are connected in the straight-inclined well high-frequency injection-production string on both the upper and lower sides of the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4, and flow nipples 7 are connected in the straight-inclined well high-frequency injection-production string on both the upper and lower sides of the downhole safety valve 6; the tubing includes small-diameter tubing 3 and large-diameter tubing 5. The centralizer 8 and the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4 are connected in series in the small-diameter tubing 3, and the downhole safety valve 6 and the flow nipple 7 are connected in series in the large-diameter tubing 5. Flow nipples 7 are installed at both ends of the downhole safety valve 6 to ensure the smooth flow of the fluid inside the pipe at this location. Centralizers 8 are installed at both ends of the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4 to improve the centrality of the device and ensure the normal operation of the device. The tubing is divided into two diameters, the small-diameter tubing 3 is connected to the lower part of the string, and the large-diameter tubing 5 is connected to the upper part of the string. The pressure is adjusted by changing the flow area of the fluid to slow down the formation of scale.
[0089] The completion method applied to the above-mentioned straight-inclined well high-frequency injection-production string for compressed air energy storage includes the following steps: A. The preset working barrel 1 in the downhole combined sealing device is connected in series at a predetermined position in the completion string and lowered into the well for completion; B. The sealing working barrel 2 is connected to the lower end of the injection-production string and lowered into the well. By pressing down the sealing working barrel 2 through the injection-production string, the anchoring and sealing of the injection-production string and the completion string are realized; C. Pressurize positively to set the downhole annulus flow-limiting device, and at the same time test whether the injection-production string leaks; during this process, if there is a leak, rotate the string clockwise to pull it out and replace the injection-production string; D. If the injection-production string does not leak during the pressure test, start the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4; during this process, connect the casing valve pipeline to pressurize through the tubing-casing annulus to start the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4. If the pressure drops suddenly, it proves that the start is successful; E. After starting the downhole annulus flow-limiting device 4, continue to pressurize for backwashing the well and verify whether the downhole combined sealing device works normally; during this process, if there is fluid flowing back at the wellhead tubing, it proves that the backwashing channel in the downhole combined sealing device is opened normally; then reverse the well-washing pipeline to the normal washing process for pressurization. If the pressure does not drop when it reaches the predetermined value, it proves that the backwashing channel in the downhole combined sealing device is automatically closed normally; F. After verifying that the downhole combined sealing device works normally, inject the casing protection fluid; during this process, reverse the well-washing pipeline to the backwashing process and inject a certain amount of casing protection fluid into the tubing-casing annulus; G. Reverse the well-washing pipeline to the normal well-washing process, let it stand for a period of time, and then pressurize on the ground to punch out the soluble plug in the downhole combined sealing device to complete the completion of the straight-inclined well high-frequency injection-production string. If there are any abnormal situations in the above technological steps, the injection-production string needs to be rotated clockwise to pull it out and replaced.
[0090] The working principle of the injection-production string is that after the normal injection-production cycle ends, scale-removing, rust-removing and paraffin-removing liquids are used to clean the inside of the injection-production string by means of backwashing the well, so as to prevent a large amount of scale from blocking the channels of the injection-production string due to the high intensity and frequency of injection-production air. At the same time, the annulus casing protection liquid is replaced, so as to reduce the cost and time of replacing the injection-production string, extend the service life of the injection-production string, and improve the utilization efficiency of the gas storage reservoir.
