[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fault diagnosis, specifically a fault diagnosis method for water injection wells under digital conditions. Background Technology
[0002] Water injection is a crucial technology in oilfield production. In recent years, with the advancement of digitalization and the Internet of Things (IoT) in oilfields, a large number of water injection well monitoring systems based on real-time parameter acquisition have been deployed. These systems monitor operating conditions and issue alarms based on the characteristics of water injection well production data, which is of great significance for achieving intelligent management of oil and water wells.
[0003] Currently, the overall maturity of this technology is limited, and further research and improvement are needed. One of the keys to improving this technology is how to further integrate the relevant pipe flow and seepage mechanics theories of water injection wells with digital data acquisition and testing, and artificial intelligence analysis. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention addresses the need for further improvement in the accuracy of water injection well condition diagnosis by designing a new solution to achieve more accurate water injection well condition diagnosis, providing a more solid technical foundation for the safe and efficient operation of water injection wells, and strengthening the application foundation of intelligent oilfield construction in water injection wells.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to achieve the above objectives is as follows:
[0006] A fault diagnosis method for water injection wells under digital conditions includes the following steps:
[0007] The wellhead injection pressure is obtained through sensors, and the wellbore pressure distribution is predicted based on this.
[0008] Calculate the pressure loss of the injected medium through the nozzle and the formation water absorption index;
[0009] Predict the stratified water injection volume of injection wells based on wellbore pressure distribution, pressure loss, and formation water absorption index.
[0010] Fault diagnosis is performed on water injection wells based on the prediction results.
[0011] The predicted wellbore pressure distribution is specifically as follows:
[0012]
[0013] Where, p i+1 p is the pressure value along the (i+1)th well depth direction. i Let Δp1 be the pressure value along the depth direction of the well, Δh be the pressure change at any segment of the wellbore, and p be the segment length. m Let θ be the density of the mixed medium, θ be the angle between the well section location and the horizontal direction, f be the friction coefficient, and v be the density of the mixed medium.m D represents the flow rate of the mixed medium. e Let g be the equivalent diameter of the flow channel and g be the acceleration due to gravity.
[0014] The pressure loss of the injected medium after passing through the water nozzle is specifically as follows:
[0015]
[0016] Where Δp2 is the pressure loss of the injected medium passing through the water nozzle, Q m For the injected medium flow rate, d n Let be the faucet diameter, and k and A be undetermined coefficients determined by regression analysis of the faucet wear curve.
[0017] The formation water absorption index is specifically as follows:
[0018]
[0019] Among them, I r p is the water absorption index of the injection layer. r p represents the formation pressure in the water injection zone. in The actual water injection pressure is given by p, where p is the pressure of the injected medium before it passes through the nozzle and at the calculated nozzle depth.
[0020] The predicted stratified injection volume of the injection well includes the following steps:
[0021] 1) Determine the friction adjustment coefficient Fm for the entire well;
[0022] 2) Based on the regression results of the test nozzle damage curve, fit the undetermined coefficients k and A of each layer of the injection well;
[0023] 3) Calculate the pressure and flow rate of each layer in the well based on the real-time wellhead water injection pressure and injection volume.
[0024] Step 1) specifically refers to:
[0025] The predicted bottom hole pressure in the wellbore pressure distribution is compared with the test bottom hole pressure. If the predicted pressure is greater than the test pressure, the friction adjustment coefficient Fm is increased, and the bottom hole pressure is re-predicted until the difference between the predicted pressure and the test bottom hole pressure meets the error.
[0026] Step 3) includes the following steps:
[0027] 3.1) Calculate the flow rate, pressure, and temperature from the wellhead to the first injection point;
[0028] 3.2) Calculate the flow rate, pressure, and temperature after the first injection point nozzle;
[0029] 3.3) Based on the formation pressure and the pressure after the nozzle at the first injection point, determine whether the injection flow rate is correct; if correct, proceed to step 3.4); otherwise, correct Fm and return to step 3.1).
[0030] 3.4) Starting from the first injection point, subtract the first layer flow rate from the total flow rate to obtain the new flow rate. Calculate the flow rate, pressure, and temperature from the first injection point to the second injection point using the pressure at the nozzle of the first injection point.
[0031] 3.5) Repeat steps 3.2) to 3.4) until the last sub-point is calculated.
[0032] In step 3.3), determining whether the injection flow rate is correct specifically involves:
[0033] Calculate the actual water absorption Q of the bottom layer m1 :
[0034] Q m1 =(p in -p r )I r
[0035] Among them, I r p is the water absorption index of the injection layer. r p represents the formation pressure in the water injection zone. in This represents the actual water injection pressure.
[0036] Determine the actual water absorption Q m1 If the error between the flow rate and the flow rate after the first injection point nozzle is within the threshold range, then the injection flow rate is correct; otherwise, the injection flow rate is incorrect.
[0037] The fault diagnosis of water injection wells based on the prediction results is specifically as follows:
[0038] Based on the apparent water absorption index I of the entire well qr Wellhead injection pressure p whi Back pressure p bc Total well water injection volume Q m The changes are used to diagnose the fault, specifically:
[0039] a) When the back pressure increases, the wellhead injection pressure decreases, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold and the water injection volume of the whole well decreases, the tubing above the first packer will leak. When calculating the apparent water absorption index of the whole well, the formation pressure is taken as the average value of each layer and the injection pressure is taken as the wellhead injection pressure.
[0040] b) When the back pressure increases, the injection pressure decreases, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the change in the water injection volume of the whole well is less than the threshold, the first-stage packer fails.
[0041] c) When the injection pressure decreases, the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the change in the water injection volume of the whole well is less than the threshold, the packer below the first-stage packer fails.
[0042] d) When the injection pressure decreases, the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the water injection volume of the whole well increases, the nozzle will either fall off or become larger.
[0043] e) When the injection pressure increases, the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the water injection volume of the whole well decreases, nozzle blockage occurs.
[0044] f) Formation contamination occurs when the injection pressure increases, the back pressure remains constant, the apparent water absorption index of the whole well decreases, and the total water injection volume of the whole well decreases.
[0045] g) When the injection pressure decreases, the back pressure remains unchanged, the apparent water absorption index of the whole well increases, and the water injection volume of the whole well increases, the formation resistance decreases.
[0046] h) When the injection pressure increases, the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the injection volume of the whole well decreases, the formation pressure increases.
[0047] i) When the injection pressure decreases, the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the injection volume of the whole well increases, the formation pressure decreases.
[0048] j) When all indicators change less than the threshold, or the injection pressure decreases while the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the injection volume of the whole well decreases, or the injection pressure increases while the back pressure remains unchanged, the change in the apparent water absorption index of the whole well is less than the threshold, and the injection volume of the whole well increases, the operating condition is normal and there is no fault.

[0053] Figure 1 Flowchart for diagnosing water injection well faults. Detailed Implementation
[0054] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0055] The main process of this invention is as follows: First, the pressure distribution of the wellbore is calculated; then, the pressure loss of the injected medium through the nozzle is calculated; and finally, the formation water absorption index is calculated. Based on the calculations in the first three parts, the layered water injection volume prediction and common fault diagnosis of the injection well are realized.
[0056] As attached Figure 1 As shown, this invention mainly consists of five functional blocks: wellbore pressure distribution calculation, pressure loss calculation of the injected medium through the nozzle, formation water absorption index calculation, stratified water injection volume prediction, and fault diagnosis. The main principles and ideas of this invention are as follows:
[0057] (1) Calculation of wellbore pressure distribution
[0058] Given the wellhead injection pressure, calculate the pressure of each segment downwards from the wellhead. The pressure at any segment is then calculated as follows:
[0059]

[0061] p i The pressure value along the i-th well depth direction, in MPa.

[0071]
[0072] Q m = Medium injection rate at the wellhead, m3 / d

[0074] When using tubing injection, De is taken as the inner diameter of the tubing.

[0078] D i The inner diameter of the oil pipe is in meters (m).
[0079] g, the acceleration due to gravity, is taken as 9.81 kgm / s².
[0080] Calculation of friction coefficient f
[0081] The coefficient of friction is related to the Reynolds number R and the relative roughness ε.
[0082] When R is less than 2300, the injected flow is laminar, and the friction coefficient is...
[0083] f = F m *64 / R(1-4)
[0084] When R is greater than 2300, the injected flow is turbulent, and the friction coefficient is...

[0087] F in the above two equations m This is the friction adjustment coefficient, with a default value of 1. The actual value can be obtained by regression from the pressure measurement data of the water injection well. This coefficient is defined mainly to take into account the influence of factors that are difficult to quantify statically, such as the water injection tubing string, casing couplings, and oil adhesion.
[0088] The formula for calculating the Reynolds number R is as follows:
[0089] R = ρ m v m D e / μ m (1-6)
[0090] Where μ m Injected mixture viscosity
[0091] μ m =μ w *wc+μp (1-wc)(1-7)
[0092]
[0093] μ w =EXP(1.003-1.479×10) -2 T+1.982×10 -5 T -2 (1-9)
[0094] μ p =f(T), if the injection medium is oily wastewater, μ p Then it is determined by the following experimental relationship.
[0095] lglg(μ p +A)=B+Clg(T+273.15)(1-10)
[0096] A, B, and C are undetermined coefficients, which can be determined by providing at least three sets of crude oil viscosity test data.
[0097] If the injection medium is a polymer, μ p It is recommended to determine the following experimental relationship.
[0098] μ p =aT 5 +bT 4 +cT 3 +dT 2 +eT+f(1-11)
[0099] Where a, b, c, d, e, and f are undetermined coefficients, which can be determined by providing at least six sets of viscosity-temperature test data.

[0112] Qw, Qp - Injection volume of water and water-injection additives, m3 / d;
[0113] ρ w / ρ p - Density of water and additives, kg / m3
[0114] (2) Calculation of pressure loss of the injected medium through the water nozzle
[0115]
[0116] Δp, pressure loss of the injected medium through the nozzle, MPa;
[0117] Q m Injection medium flow rate, m3 / d;
[0118] d n Water tap diameter, mm
[0119] k and A are undetermined coefficients, determined by regression analysis of the test faucet damage curve provided by the faucet manufacturer.

[0125] p is the pressure of the injected medium before it passes the water nozzle and at the calculated water nozzle depth, i.e., the pressure value calculated to the water nozzle position using the method in section (1).
[0126] (4) Prediction of stratified water injection volume
[0127] The first step is to determine the friction adjustment coefficient Fm for the entire well.
[0128] Calculate the bottom hole pressure using formula (1) and its auxiliary formulas, and compare it with the tested bottom hole pressure. If the calculated pressure is greater than the tested pressure, increase Fm and recalculate until the calculated wellbore pressure and the tested bottom hole pressure meet the given error.
[0129] The second step involves using the regression formula (2) to adjust the data from the stratified injection well nozzles, where k and A are used to fit the k and A values for each layer. Simultaneously, formula (3) is used to fit the water absorption index I of each layer. r .
[0130] The third step is to calculate the overall well pressure distribution and the flow rate at each layer.
[0131] The pressure and flow rate of each layer downhole are calculated based on the real-time wellhead injection pressure and injection volume of a well. The flow rate, pressure, and temperature are calculated segment by segment from the wellhead downwards until the last injection layer.
[0132] 1) Calculate the flow rate, pressure, and temperature from the wellhead to the first injection point using formula (1) and its associated formulas;
[0133] 2) Calculate the flow rate, pressure, and temperature after the first injection point nozzle using formula (2);
[0134] 3) Use the formation pressure at the first injection point and the pressure after the nozzle at the first injection point, combined with formula (3), to determine whether the injection flow rate is correct; if correct, proceed to the next step of calculation; otherwise, return to the previous step, correct Fm and recalculate.
[0135] The process for determining whether the injection flow rate is correct is as follows:
[0136] Calculate the actual water absorption of the formation
[0137] Q m1 =(p i -p r )I r
[0138] Determine Q m1 Check if the error between the calculated flow rate and the previous step is within the allowable range, preferably within ±5%. If it is, it is correct; otherwise, it is incorrect.
[0139] 4) Starting from the first injection point, subtract the first layer of water volume from the total flow rate to obtain the new water volume, and continue to calculate downwards using the pressure in front of the nozzle at the first injection point.
[0140] 5) Calculate the flow rate, pressure, and temperature from the first injection point to the second injection layer using formula (1) and its auxiliary formulas, and calculate up to the last injection layer using the methods in steps 2), 3), and 4).
