Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the process of jet well washing, and particularly relates to a high-pressure hydraulic jet well washing process for in-situ leaching uranium ore layers. Background Technique

[0002] By analyzing the drilling construction process, leaching process, and well washing process of a certain in-situ leaching mine in Xinjiang, it is found that:

[0003] 1. According to the existing gravel-packed drilling construction process, plant gum and bentonite are mainly used as drilling fluids. This drilling method belongs to positive-pressure drilling. Under the action of pressure, the drilling fluid penetrates into the ore layer, polluting and blocking the filters, borehole walls, and near-well zones of the pumping and injection wells, reducing the permeability of the ore layer; the cementing fluid used in the drilling and completion process is mainly cement, which will block the formation after solidifying in the formation, reducing the permeability of the ore layer.

[0004] 2. According to the existing leaching process, it is mainly a neutral leaching process. The formation lithology is mainly gravel and coarse sand. The ore-bearing aquifer has a large porosity and good permeability. During the pumping and injection processes, it is extremely easy to produce sand. The sand migrates through pores or throats and accumulates near the pumping well, causing mechanical blockage of the near-well zone and filters. The content of water-sensitive clay mineral montmorillonite in the formation is low. Non-swelling clay minerals such as kaolinite, chlorite, and illite are dispersed and transported under the scouring of the leaching agent, which may lead to mechanical blockage of the near-well zone of the pumping well. Analyzing the mineral composition of the blockage in the drilling filter, it is mainly quartz, calcite, and a small amount of hexavalent uranium minerals of uranium, indicating that calcite and hexavalent uranium ore are redeposited during the in-situ leaching process. The results of indoor simulated leaching experiments combined with geochemical model calculations show that calcium carbonate and dolomite are one of the main minerals forming chemical precipitation blockage in the deposit; the oxidation of pyrite leads to a continuous increase in the concentration of SO4 2- in the system, making calcium sulfate tend to be saturated, and at the same time causing iron precipitation in the ore layer.

[0005] 3. According to the current well washing process, for the mechanical blockage and chemical blockage occurring during the production process, physical or chemical or combined well washing is adopted.

[0006] For the conventional air compressor well washing, the well washing effect is poor and the maintenance time is short. There are two main reasons. One is that the drilling depth is relatively large. Due to the small air volume of the air compressor, it is impossible to create a large negative pressure to cause groundwater to rush into the well, so that the blockage near the filter and in the near-well zone cannot rush into the well in large quantities and finally be discharged to the surface. The other is that there is chemical blockage in some drillings, and the conventional hole washing cannot dissolve the blockage.

[0007] Combined with dilute hydrochloric acid for well flushing, this method can effectively dissolve chemical blockages such as calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate. The well flushing effect is obvious in the initial stage of well flushing, but as the well flushing progresses, the effect of this well flushing method decreases. Through analysis, firstly, the dilute acid reacts with the blockages in the formation pore throats and dissolves them. The formation pore throats are dredged, and due to the negative pressure caused by conventional air compressor well flushing, the dissolved substances are carried out. However, due to the water body replacement of a part of the dissolved substances, the pH value changes and new blockages are generated. In the initial stage of the generation of the newly formed blockages, the particles are small and can move with the water body. But after a long time, its saturation increases, and the small particle blockages form large particle blockages, re-blocking the originally dredged formation pore throats. Secondly, the chemical blockages in the near-well zone are dissolved by adding acid for a long time and carried out by air compressor well flushing. Since the air volume of the air compressor is small and cannot carry all the dissolved substances to the surface, over time, the blockages that have not been carried to the surface still exist near the filter and the wellbore, forming new blockages.

[0081] ⑷After pulling out the tools, comprehensively inspect the pipe string and cleaning tools, and make descriptive records. Clean and maintain the tools.

[0082] 5. Safety and precautions

[0083] ⑴During the wellbore cleaning process, strictly execute the technical instructions, feed the drill evenly, and prevent sudden stops and slips.

[0084] ⑵The driller observes and records the drill string parameters, especially the hook load, torque, and pump pressure changes at increased intervals. In case of abnormalities, immediately stop the cleaning and analyze the downhole conditions clearly.

[0092] The schematic structural diagram of the device used in the present invention is shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, a well opener is lowered into the well using a drilling (workover) rig to check the wellbore and determine the casing deformation. Connect the cleaning tool according to the drill string assembly, test it according to the technical parameters of the cleaning tool, start the pump truck, and the pressure of the pump truck is 8 MPa - 12 MPa. The high-pressure water acts on the turbine through a specific water eye of the turbine rotary cleaning tool, driving the turbine to rotate at high speed, stirring the wellbore water to form a water vortex, enabling the vortex to pass through the screen pipe, flowing out through the screen pipe and acting on the packed gravel through the frame filter. At the same time, cooperate with the piston to move up and down to form positive and negative pressures, disturbing the gravel filter outside the pipe to turn over, and cleaning the blockages adsorbed on the surface of the gravel. The single-hole well washing time should be more than 3 hours, and the wellhead returns clear water without impurities to be qualified.

[0093] The following gives a specific example.

[0094] In a uranium deposit in Xinjiang, a high-pressure hydraulic jet well washing process was carried out. A total of 40 pumping holes were cleaned by high-pressure hydraulic jet well washing. Although the well washing cost is high, in the subsequent follow-up of the test results, the water volume of 16 wells (40%) increased by 1.5 m 3 / h and the maintenance time was more than 150 days; when relieving the injection holes, the effect of this well washing method was far less than that of the pumping holes, and the water volume increased by 1.3 m 3 / h, and the maintenance time was only 32.5 days. Such a large difference occurred. After discussion, it was considered that the injection holes were mainly chemically blocked. High-pressure hydraulic jet well washing can have a certain effect on the chemically blocked substances with weak compaction, but has poor ability to remove the chemically blocked substances with severe compaction. When removing mechanical blockages in pumping holes, high-pressure hydraulic jet well washing is preferably selected. At the same time, this process does not use chemical reagents, is clean and environmentally friendly, does not produce well washing waste liquid, and will not cause secondary blockage to the formation.
