Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of screen pipe plugging test, in particular to an electric explosion plugging test device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In oil and gas (natural gas hydrate) production wells and dissolution method production wells (such as potassium salt, natural soda, mirabilite, well salt, etc.), due to the destruction of the reservoir skeleton during the production process, a large number of mud and sand particles in the reservoir will inevitably change from a bound state to a free state, forming reservoir sand production and gathering with the fluid around the wellbore, resulting in screen pipe plugging, hindering the movement of fluid in the well, and directly restricting the production and life cycle of the production well. Therefore, plugging means must be taken to restore the production capacity of the production well and avoid the occurrence of early well shut-in, well abandonment and other situations caused by screen pipe plugging, so as to protect the life cycle of the production well and help stable production growth.

[0003] In fact, screen pipe sand plugging caused by reservoir sand production is very common and frequent, and chemical and physical methods have been developed for screen pipe sand plugging in production layers. The chemical method mainly includes conventional acid and retarded acid treatment method, which injects chemical reagents into the bottom of the well to react with the substances plugging the screen pipe to dissolve them, thereby achieving the purpose of dredging the well. The chemical plugging technology is very mature and widely used in oil and gas production wells, but it has the problem that the plugging effect decreases significantly with the increase of acid washing times, and it also causes environmental pollution, which limits its application in environments with high environmental protection requirements. In comparison, the physical method has no environmental pollution problem and has obvious environmental adaptability advantages, mainly including ultrasonic oscillation, high-pressure water jet, hydraulic oscillation, electric explosion impact and other technical methods. The electric explosion plugging method has the advantages of controllable energy, no pollution and simple operation, and has become a plugging technology method with obvious application and promotion potential, especially in natural gas hydrate production wells and dissolution method production wells. Its controllable energy feature can reduce the impact of plugging on the fragile well wall and avoid accidents in the well.

[0004] For the electric explosion screen pipe plugging process, there are currently few reports on test devices that can simulate the screen pipe plugging process and the plugging process. It is impossible to quantitatively evaluate the screen pipe plugging effect and the electric explosion screen pipe plugging effect, and it is even more impossible to monitor the dynamic changes of screen pipe plugging and plugging. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a test device that can monitor the dynamic process of screen pipe plugging and plugging, has the function of providing "solid-liquid" two-phase fluid and "solid-liquid-gas" three-phase fluid circulating medium, and can quantitatively evaluate the plugging and electric explosion plugging of screen pipes in oil and gas wells and dissolution method production wells, providing a basis for plugging technology optimization, new technology research and development, and field process development.
