Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas extraction technology, specifically to a method for determining the operating performance of a screw pump, a device for determining the operating performance of a screw pump, and a machine-readable storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] After its successful development in the late 1920s, the screw pump was first applied to heavy oil extraction in the 1980s, and subsequently gradually expanded into the field of oil and gas extraction technology. The screw pump is a special type of positive displacement pump, consisting of a stator and a rotor. The rotor, with its single-helix structure, forms an interference fit within the stator, which has a double-helix internal structure. The stator lead is twice the rotor lead. As the rotor rotates, a series of 180-degree-spaced sealed chambers are formed inside the stator from the pump suction port to the discharge port. The formation of one sealed chamber and the disappearance of the other sealed chamber are synchronous, achieving continuous and stable delivery of the suctioned liquid.

[0003] In existing technologies, there are many methods for evaluating the operating performance of screw pumps, typically using pump failure index, average pump life, average pump failure time, and number of failures per unit pump operating time. However, current evaluations of screw pump operating performance are limited to the screw pump itself, which has certain limitations and is not comprehensive enough. Given that screw pumps operate inside oil and gas wells, combining well production data can more accurately provide a comprehensive understanding of screw pump operating performance. Summary of the Invention

[0018] Based on the service life and actual operating time of the screw pump, the effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump is determined.

[0019] Based on the well life and well production time of the oil well, the well opening rate of the oil well is determined;

[0020] The effective well opening rate of the oil well is determined based on the actual operating time of the screw pump and the well production time of the oil well.

[0021] Optionally, the operating rate of the screw pump is determined based on the pump's time at the bottom of the well and its service life, including:

[0057] Example 1

[0058] like Figure 1-4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a method for determining the operating performance of a screw pump, wherein the screw pump is used to transport media inside the oil well to the outside of the oil well, and the method includes:

[0059] Step 1: Obtain the time the screw pump spends at the bottom of the well, the pump's service life, and the actual operating time of the pump, as well as the well life and well production time of the oil well;

[0060] Specifically, a screw pump is used to transport media from inside an oil well to outside the well, and its structure is as follows: Figure 2-3As shown, due to the limited lifespan of screw pumps and the existence of special circumstances during use that can lead to pump damage, replacement with a new screw pump is necessary. Therefore, multiple screw pumps may be used in a single oil well. In this embodiment, during the analysis, as... Figure 4 As shown, for each oil well, the pump bottoming time, pump lifespan, and actual pump running time of all screw pumps used in that oil well are obtained, as well as the overall well lifespan and well production time of the oil well. Based on the obtained pump bottoming time, pump lifespan, and actual pump running time of the screw pumps, as well as the well lifespan and well production time of the oil well, the starting time rate and effective starting time rate of the screw pumps, as well as the starting time rate and effective starting time rate of the oil well, are obtained. Finally, the operating performance of the screw pumps is determined.

[0061] The pump's time at the bottom of the well is the time from when the screw pump is lowered into the well to when it is pulled to the surface; the pump's service life is the time from when the screw pump starts running to when it is finally stopped; the pump's actual running time is the time during which the daily water production is greater than or equal to the preset water production; the well's lifespan is the time from when the well starts producing to when it is finally shut down; and the well's production time is the total number of days during which the well's daily gas production is greater than or equal to the preset gas production and / or daily water production is greater than or equal to the preset water production. For pumps still running by the data cutoff date, that date is assumed to be the last time the pump was stopped; for pumps still running by the data cutoff date, that date is assumed to be the time the pump was pulled to the surface; for pumps shut down before the data cutoff date but not yet pulled to the surface, the shut-down date is assumed to be the time the pump was pulled to the surface; and for wells still producing by the data cutoff date, that date is assumed to be the well shut-down date.

[0062] Step 2: Based on the time the screw pump spends at the bottom of the well, the pump's service life, and the actual operating time of the pump, as well as the well life and well production time of the oil well, obtain the screw pump's start-up rate and effective start-up rate, as well as the oil well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate.

[0063] Specifically, the steps to obtain the start-up rate and effective start-up rate of the screw pump, as well as the start-up rate and effective start-up rate of the oil well, are as follows:

[0064] Based on the time the screw pump spends at the bottom of the well and the pump's service life, the pump start-up rate of the screw pump is determined.

[0065] Based on the service life and actual operating time of the screw pump, the effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump is determined.

[0066] Based on the well life and well production time of the oil well, the well opening rate of the oil well is determined;

[0067] The effective well opening rate of the oil well is determined based on the actual operating time of the screw pump and the well production time of the oil well.

[0068] More specifically, based on the time the screw pump spends at the bottom of the well and its service life, the pump start-up rate of the screw pump is determined, including:

[0069] The pump start-up rate of the screw pump is calculated using the following formula:

[0070]

[0071] Where η1 is the operating rate of the screw pump; T 泵寿命,i T represents the service life of a screw pump. 井底,i This refers to the time the screw pump spends at the bottom of the well.

[0072] More specifically, based on the service life and actual operating time of the screw pump, the effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump is determined, including:

[0073] The effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump is calculated using the following formula:

[0074]

[0075] Where η2 is the effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump; T 实际,i T represents the actual operating time of the screw pump. 泵寿命,i This refers to the service life of the screw pump.

[0076] More specifically, based on the well life and well production duration of the oil well, the well opening rate is determined, including:

[0077] The well opening rate of the oil well was calculated using the following formula:

[0078]

[0079] Where η3 is the well opening rate; T 生产 T is the well production time of an oil well. 井寿命 This refers to the well life of an oil well.

[0080] More specifically, based on the actual operating time of the screw pump and the well production time of the oil well, the effective well opening rate of the oil well is determined, including:

[0081] The effective well opening rate of the oil well was calculated using the following formula:

[0082]

[0083] Where η4 is the effective well opening rate of the oil well; T 实际,i T represents the actual operating time of the screw pump. 生产 This refers to the well production time of an oil well.

[0084] Step 3: Determine the operating performance of the screw pump based on the pump start-up rate and effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump, as well as the well start-up rate and effective well start-up rate of the oil well.

[0085] Specifically, in this embodiment, the timeliness of well workover operations can be determined by the pump start-up rate; the reasonableness of pump ineffective operation time / shutdown time can be determined by the effective pump start-up rate; the reasonableness of well ineffective production time / shutdown time can be determined by the well start-up rate; and the reasonableness of well inefficient production time can be determined by the effective well start-up rate. Thus, the operating performance of the screw pump can be determined by the screw pump start-up rate and effective pump start-up rate, as well as the well start-up rate and effective well start-up rate.

[0086] More specifically, the operating performance of screw pumps, from best to worst, includes three levels: Level 1 (excellent), Level 2 (qualified), and Level 3 (unqualified). The qualified standard for the screw pump's start-up rate is the first standard threshold; the qualified standard for the effective start-up rate is the second standard threshold; the qualified standard for the oil well's well opening rate is the third standard threshold; and the qualified standard for the effective well opening rate is the fourth standard threshold. Correspondingly, when the screw pump's start-up rate meets the first standard threshold, the effective start-up rate meets the second standard threshold, and the oil well's well opening rate meets the third standard threshold and the effective well opening rate meets the fourth standard threshold, the screw pump's operating performance is classified as Level 1. Similarly, when any two of the four parameters—the screw pump's start-up rate and effective start-up rate, and the oil well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate—fail to meet the corresponding standard thresholds, the screw pump's operating performance is at level two. Adjustments to the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters based on the parameters that do not meet the corresponding standard thresholds are required, according to the corresponding performance improvement strategy. Likewise, when any three or all four of the four parameters—the screw pump's start-up rate and effective start-up rate, and the oil well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate—fail to meet the corresponding standard thresholds, the screw pump's operating performance is at level three. Adjustments to the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters based on the parameters that do not meet the corresponding standard thresholds are required, according to the corresponding performance improvement strategy.

[0087] Example 2

[0088] After determining the screw pump operating performance through Example 1, the screw pump operating performance is categorized from best to worst as follows: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. If the screw pump operating performance is determined to be Level 2 or Level 3, a corresponding performance improvement strategy is invoked based on this performance. This involves adjusting the screw pump operating parameters and oil well production parameters. The performance improvement strategy includes screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters to improve the screw pump's operating performance, thereby increasing yield, etc. In this example, the screw pump operating performance is categorized from best to worst as follows: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3, where Level 1 is excellent, Level 2 is acceptable, and Level 3 is unacceptable. When at Level 1, it indicates that the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters are very suitable and require no adjustment. When at Level 2, it indicates that a small portion of the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters require adjustment. When at Level 3, it indicates that most of the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters require adjustment. Furthermore, the performance of the screw pump is assessed by setting qualification standards for four parameters: the screw pump's start-up rate and effective start-up rate, as well as the well's opening rate and effective opening rate. The qualification standard for the screw pump's start-up rate is the first standard threshold; the qualification standard for the effective start-up rate is the second standard threshold; the qualification standard for the well's opening rate is the third standard threshold; and the qualification standard for the effective opening rate is the fourth standard threshold. Correspondingly, when the screw pump's start-up rate meets the first standard threshold, the effective start-up rate meets the second standard threshold, and the well's opening rate meets the third standard threshold and the effective opening rate meets the fourth standard threshold, the screw pump's performance is classified as Level 1. Similarly, when any two of the four parameters—the screw pump's start-up rate and effective start-up rate, and the oil well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate—fail to meet the corresponding standard thresholds, the screw pump's operating performance is at level two. Adjustments to the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters based on the parameters that do not meet the corresponding standard thresholds are required, according to the corresponding performance improvement strategy. Likewise, when any three or all four of the four parameters—the screw pump's start-up rate and effective start-up rate, and the oil well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate—fail to meet the corresponding standard thresholds, the screw pump's operating performance is at level three. Adjustments to the screw pump control parameters and oil well production control parameters based on the parameters that do not meet the corresponding standard thresholds are required, according to the corresponding performance improvement strategy.

[0089] Among these strategies, the operational performance improvement strategies are derived from historical data fitting and expert experience summarization, and then converted into machine language for storage. Correspondingly, the operational performance improvement strategies for low pump start-up rates include selecting the optimal pump type to extend the screw pump's service life; and pre-planning mobile well workover personnel to ensure timely operation after pump failure. The operational performance improvement strategies for low effective pump start-up rates include strengthening pump operation management and timely identification of pump failures; and rationally planning surface water treatment capacity to ensure that produced water can be treated in a timely manner, thereby achieving continuous pump operation and production. The operational performance improvement strategies for low well start-up rates include optimizing well completion types (e.g., using expandable packer completions) to ensure stable and high well production at the source; and improving on-site operational levels (e.g., shortening well workover time and rationally setting wellhead pressure) to reduce unnecessary shut-in time. The operational performance improvement strategies for low effective well start-up rates include rationally planning the receiving capacity of surface gas gathering devices to ensure that produced gas can be processed in a timely manner, thereby achieving continuous production.

[0090] Example 3

[0091] like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a device for determining the operating performance of a screw pump. The screw pump is used to transport media from inside the oil well to outside the oil well, and includes:

[0092] The initial parameter acquisition module 10 is used to acquire the pump's time at the bottom of the well, pump lifespan, and actual pump running time, as well as the well lifespan and well production time.

[0093] The intermediate parameter determination module 20 is used to obtain the pump start-up rate and effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump, as well as the well start-up rate and effective well start-up rate, based on the pump bottoming time, pump life and actual pump running time, well life and well production time of the screw pump.

[0094] The operating performance determination module 30 is used to determine the operating performance of the screw pump based on the pump start-up rate and effective pump start-up rate of the screw pump, as well as the well start-up rate and effective well start-up rate of the well.

[0095] Example 4

[0096] This invention also provides a machine-readable storage medium storing instructions that cause a machine to execute the screw pump operating performance determination method described above.

[0097] Example 5

[0098] In this embodiment, data from 55 pump operation cycles of 29 wells in an example gas field were analyzed. The data cutoff date was August 31, 2021, and the upper limit of water production metering error was 0.2 m³ / d. The qualified standard for the screw pump start-up rate was the first standard threshold, with a value of 80%; the qualified standard for the effective start-up rate was the second standard threshold, with a value of 80%; the qualified standard for the oil well start-up rate was the third standard threshold, with a value of 85%; and the qualified standard for the effective start-up rate was the fourth standard threshold, with a value of 85%. The pump's time at the bottom of the well, pump lifespan, and actual pump operating time, as well as the oil well's well lifespan and well production time were obtained. Figure 6 As shown, the calculation results indicate that the screw pump's start-up rate, effective start-up rate, and the well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate are 72%, 77.3%, 81.1%, and 69.9%, respectively. A calculated value of 100% for all four parameters represents the theoretical optimal state of pump performance, but this is impossible to achieve in field operation. However, higher values ​​indicate better pump performance. Since the screw pump's start-up rate, effective start-up rate, and the well's start-up rate and effective start-up rate are all below the corresponding standard thresholds, the screw pump's performance is classified as level three. Based on these results, four problems were identified in the screw pump operation of the example gas field: untimely well workover operations, prolonged pump ineffective operation / shutdown time, prolonged well ineffective production / shutdown time, and prolonged inefficient production time. By combining the actual field conditions, the countermeasures in step 104 were specifically selected, and the screw pump control parameters and well production control parameters were adjusted and implemented. One year later, the screw pump's performance was reassessed. Calculation results show that the pump start-up rate, effective pump start-up rate, well start-up rate, and effective well start-up rate are 82.1%, 87.7%, 93.4%, and 79.9%, respectively. Figure 7 As shown. By Figure 7 The data in Figure 6 The data comparison shows that all four parameter values ​​have increased, indicating that the measures are very effective. Furthermore, the calculation results show that the pump start-up rate, effective pump start-up rate, well start-up rate, and effective well start-up rate meet the corresponding standard thresholds, and the screw pump operating performance is at the first level. These results demonstrate that the method of this invention can comprehensively analyze and determine the operating performance of screw pumps, identify some hidden problems in screw pump and well production operations, and provide effective solutions.
