Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas well cementing engineering, and in particular relates to a method for calculating annular space pressure in a cement slurry weight loss process. Background Art
[0002] High-pressure gas wells, especially those with large temperature differences, usually have complex geological structures and many vertical oil, gas and water displays. The annular air channeling after cementing is a difficult problem that needs to be solved urgently. Studies have shown that the hydration of cement slurry during the waiting period will lead to a decrease in the pressure acting on the gas layer, resulting in the phenomenon of cement slurry weight loss, which causes pressure imbalance, which is one of the reasons for early gas channeling after cementing. In order to solve this technical problem, relevant workers have conducted a series of related studies. It mainly focuses on the investigation of weight loss pressure. For example, Chinese patent CN111287688A discloses a method for determining the weight loss value of cement slurry and a method for holding annular pressure in different time periods after cementing. This patent solves the pressure balance problem after the weight loss of cement slurry by replenishing annular pressure in stages, avoids the pressure value exceeding the high pressure leakage formation caused by one-time holding pressure waiting, effectively achieves pressure stability throughout the waiting process, and better solves the problem of short-term channeling after cementing.
[0003] For example, patent CN111042801A focuses on the weight loss of cement slurry under different cement slurry systems. It discloses a device and a method for measuring the weight loss of annular cement slurry. The device includes a kettle, a pressure pump and a computer. The kettle is provided with coaxial casing and formation baffles. The bottom of the casing is provided with a heating rod and a temperature sensor. The bottom of the annular gap between the casing and the formation baffle is provided with an annular pressure sensor. The annular pressure sensor and the temperature sensor transmit data to the computer. The top of the kettle is provided with three flanges connected in sequence, and the flanges are provided with pressure valves and pressure gauges. The device can simulate the weight loss of cement slurry, well wall and casing under actual working conditions, and can analyze the weight loss of cement slurry under different formations and different cement slurry systems, and can also simulate the weight loss at different well depths and different temperatures and pressures.
[0004] The document "Research and Application of Cement Slurry Weight Loss Pressure Evaluation Technology" (Liu Yang, Drilling Fluids and Completion Fluids, Vol. 36, No. 6, November 2009, 749-753) uses the proportional reduction method to develop a set of high-temperature and high-pressure cement slurry weight loss pressure evaluation experimental equipment, and conducts typical cement slurry weight loss pressure experiments in vertical and inclined wells. At the same time, a method for calculating the cement slurry weight loss pressure in sections is proposed, which has been tested in the field and provides guidance for the annulus pressure holding and setting.
[0005] The above-mentioned literature mainly focuses on the experimental test method of weight loss pressure. Due to the limitation of the length of the cement slurry column in the laboratory, the maximum test temperature is only 120°C, which cannot meet the requirements of high temperature and high pressure. Although the calculation method of the annular pressure during the weight loss process of cement slurry is involved, the weight loss of cement slurry is greatly affected by temperature, and the existing research has not considered the changes in the wellbore temperature field during the cement slurry setting process.
[0006] Therefore, how to provide a method for calculating the annular pressure during the cement slurry waiting to set process with higher calculation accuracy so that it can be applied to wells with large temperature differences and to apply accurate annular pressure to the cement slurry waiting to set process is a technical problem faced by this application.
