Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of information management and control technology for downhole fracturing operations in oilfields, specifically to an operation command platform and its construction method suitable for shale oil field operations. Background Technology

[0002] In China's oil and gas fields, information technology for fracturing and hydraulic testing has only developed single-function information application systems, such as remote monitoring of fracturing trucks, remote command of fracturing and acidizing operations, and intelligent monitoring of fracturing fractures. A unified, multi-faceted, and efficient collaborative operation command platform for the entire fracturing and hydraulic testing process has not been established. This makes it impossible to achieve seamless switching, rapid deployment, and cross-platform integration during large-scale shale oil fracturing and testing operations involving multiple units and project teams. Temporarily integrating multiple systems involves a huge workload, poor presentation results, and long lead times. Previously, the integrated command center typically used manual switching methods, requiring multiple units to bring their own display source equipment, and switching interfaces required manual plugging and unplugging of signal cables. Furthermore, it failed to achieve simultaneous display, comparative analysis, and collaborative command of information from multiple units, resulting in extremely poor performance.

[0003] In overseas oil and gas fields, oilfield service companies focus on extracting value from fracturing data. Currently, companies like Shell, ExxonMobil, Saudi Aramco, and Statoil have established information management and application systems. Halliburton, for example, integrates global fracturing data to specifically improve fracturing designs and achieve efficient on-site command. However, reports on integration and collaboration are lacking. There are currently no mature theories, technologies, or experiences available for reference, either domestically or internationally. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] like Figure 1-5As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides an operation command platform and construction method suitable for shale oil field construction, including a command room and a control system. The overall structure of the command room adopts a spliced ​​integrated structure, which is composed of multiple boxes. The command room is equipped with an integrated temperature control unit, network communication transmission equipment and power amplification module. The command room is equipped with a data acquisition and communication equipment room, a command area, a conference area and a seating area.

[0028] The data acquisition and communication equipment collects and processes data from various equipment and facilities at the fracturing construction site, and uploads the collected data to a cloud server for centralized storage. Simultaneously, the data is integrated into the system via a video matrix and splicing control processor and presented in the command area. The splicing screen is installed in the command area as the main display terminal. The splicing screen is connected to the output end of the video matrix via HDMI cable and RJ45 data cable. The video matrix is ​​equipped with multiple preset schemes to meet the needs of rapid switching between multiple platform system access. The input port of the video matrix is ​​connected to a programmable multi-platform access controller. All the action functions of the splicing control processor are integrated into the dedicated control software in the command room for unified control.

[0029] The conference area encompasses on-site multimedia conferencing, remote conferencing, and remote expert diagnostics, systematically integrating multiple functions such as data processing, data display, data storage, system power supply, and system control to achieve a multi-threaded interactive fusion projection command method.

[0030] The control system uses self-developed dedicated control software pre-installed in the integrated control console of the seating area. It uses a touch screen as the operating medium and employs the principle of sending and receiving command codes and command content and feedback operation results through fixed ports addressed by device IP. This enables multi-threaded and multi-dimensional control and integrated use of video matrix, multi-platform access controller, splicing processor, page server, distributed seats, video surveillance, data curves, remote conferencing, and multimedia conferencing.

[0031] Given the large number of participating teams, the long construction chain, and the complexity of operational elements, the command center needs to be built in the field, relocatable, reusable, windproof, rainproof, durable, and easy to disassemble and reassemble. The overall structure of the command center is a modular, integrated structure, which facilitates on-site assembly and transportation, and can be moved to another location simply by hoisting. Each unit is small in size and has good mobility, so it is not limited by terrain. It has an integrated temperature control unit to meet the environmental changes of different seasons, such as the cold northern regions and the high temperatures of summer. It also has its own network communication transmission equipment and power amplifier module, so it is not limited by the network conditions at the field construction site.

[0032] Due to the large number of participating units in the construction, and the lack of uniformity in the platform systems used by each unit, the integration of temporary systems was a huge undertaking, resulting in poor presentation and long lead times. Consequently, previous integrated command operations generally relied on manual switching, requiring multiple units to bring their own display source equipment, and interface switching could only be done manually by plugging and unplugging signal cables. Furthermore, it failed to enable simultaneous display, comparison, and analysis of information from multiple units, leading to extremely poor collaborative command capabilities. To address these issues, the operational command platform for shale oil field construction was designed from the initial planning stages to resolve these difficulties, achieving compatibility with multiple platform access and integrated application capabilities while ensuring the successful application of a single system platform.

[0033] The video wall, serving as the primary display unit, is installed in the command area, which is 1.5 meters away from the conference area for interactive command and control. The video wall connects to the output of the video matrix via HDMI and RJ45 cables. The video matrix features multiple preset modes to facilitate rapid switching between multiple platform systems. The video matrix input ports connect to a programmable multi-platform access controller, enabling hierarchical management, preset mode management, and zero-latency switching of inputs. Preset modes include a 4:4 single-platform mode (Plan 1), a 2:2 dual-platform mode (Plan 2), and a 3:1 multi-platform mode (Plan 3). Mode control is integrated into dedicated control software in the command room for adjustment. Plans 1 and 2 use a single-channel-to-single-channel allocation and adjustment method via the programmable multi-platform access controller. Plan 3 compresses three channels into a single channel via a lossy compression processor and then allocates and adjusts the channel to the video matrix for display via the programmable multi-platform access controller. The four input ports of the programmable multi-platform access controller connected to the video matrix are cascaded with a video wall processor. All functions of the cascaded processor are integrated into the dedicated control software in the command room for unified control.

[0034] The programmable multi-platform access controller uses a general-purpose multi-PCIe service version as its foundation, connects to multiple general-purpose display cards, and connects the main platform and other access platform signal sources to the input terminals of the cards. The system is flashed with self-developed hardware-supported switching software, binds network addresses through static IPs, connects to the network hub in the computer room through network cables, receives parameterized instructions from the dedicated control software in the command room to execute access mode switching actions, and pushes video sources to the video matrix according to preset modes for display according to the preset layout of the video matrix.

[0035] The main actuator, the programmable multi-platform access controller, works as follows: The device uses a general-purpose multi-PCIe server board as its foundation, connecting to multiple general-purpose display cards (2 inputs and 2 outputs configured for a 4-input mode; currently using 3 cards, expandable according to actual needs). The main platform and other access platform signal sources are connected to the card inputs. The system is flashed with self-developed hardware-supported switching software, and the network address 192.168.1.88 is bound via a static IP. It is connected to the network hub in the server room via a network cable, receiving parameterized commands (192.168.1.88:18814 ch_mode_0~4) from the dedicated control software in the command center to execute access mode switching. The video source is pushed to the video matrix according to the preset mode and displayed according to the preset display layout. Simultaneously, a successful switch signal is fed back to 192.168.1.4:18814 ch_mode_0~4 succeed; a failed switch signal is fed back to 192.168.1.4:18814 ch_mode_0~4 failed.

[0036] To allow for customized and flexible combination and display of various aspects of shale oil construction, including production dynamics, equipment status, material supply, safety and quality inspection results, high-risk operation applications, progress of handling abnormal shutdowns, learning curves, big data analysis, on-site monitoring screens, and real-time fracturing curves, so as to facilitate experts' comprehensive understanding of various on-site situations from multiple perspectives, a multi-threaded interactive fusion projection command method was studied.

[0037] Multiple on-site data, monitoring videos, curve videos, and sensor data are integrated and processed to form a dedicated tracking interface. This interface utilizes multiple monitoring hosts, hard disk recorders, data decoding hosts, and video conferencing hosts to create 14 fixed-scene interface layouts, compatible with multi-platform zipper-style construction modes. Each server output is connected to the splicing control processor, and the control functions are integrated into dedicated control software in the command center, enabling seamless switching, free combination, multi-scene linking, and reuse.

[0038] The functional page server configuration is as follows: Multiple mini terminal servers are deployed in a layered rack configuration. The first layer consists of 12 servers, each with a pre-set loading and display interface. They are assigned IPs from 192.168.1.11 to 23 and feature timed refresh and automatic login verification. They also provide feedback for access with specified values: e.g., 192.168.1.11:18814 Reload; 192.168.1.11:18814 login use:XXX pass:XXX reset login information; 192.168.1.11:18814 ads:https: / / …… reset the display page. The second layer consists of 6 video surveillance and video curve servers, 1 drone video receiving server, and 5 general-purpose reporting hosts, assigned IPs from 192.168.1.31 to 43. Except for the 5 general-purpose hosts, all hosts are equipped with self-developed general-purpose four-screen monitoring software, featuring timed refresh, automatic login verification, multiple pre-set access device numbers, single-screen zoom in / out, HD / SD switching, and manual refresh functions. The control terminal uses a value-based access method with a directional IP address and function code to control and adjust the video interface. The third layer consists of one video conferencing server (IP: 192.168.1.8), one network audio mixer (IP: 192.168.1.7), and a wireless control receiver, pre-installed with self-developed DQlink video conferencing software and commonly used video conferencing software (WeLink, Tencent, and Zhongyou Yilian). The fourth layer consists of three data curve service hosts (IP: 192.168.1.45~47), three serial port servers, and three hardware interface devices connected in series, pre-installed with a self-developed data curve viewing client for pairing with the main control terminal.

[0039] The work area is divided into 8 specialized management workstations: integrated control workstation, production support workstation, material support workstation, QHSE monitoring workstation, equipment support workstation, and engineering and technical workstation ×3. Except for the integrated control workstation, each workstation corresponds to the management and control concept established by the entire platform. Each workstation is equipped with two client general host units, and the output end is connected to the splicing control processor. The control functions are integrated into the dedicated control software in the command room to achieve seamless switching, free combination, multi-scenario linking and reuse.

[0040] The integrated control station in the seating area is pre-installed with dedicated command room control software and uses a touch screen as the control platform (IP: 192.168.1.4, other assigned IPs: 192.168.1.51~79, redundant IPs are used for personal devices and multi-platform access); the engineering and technical stations (×3) are pre-installed with a self-developed data curve viewing main control terminal for pairing with the controlled terminal; the QHSE monitoring station is pre-installed with self-developed QHSE monitoring software, which integrates functions such as 4-screen rotation, single-screen zoom in / out, HD / SD switching, remote monitoring control, screenshot playback, and remote announcement; the remaining seats are all general-purpose mainframes.

[0041] The dedicated control software in the command center and the control terminal both use peer-to-peer communication. Pre-programmed multi-platform modes and main platform scene numbers are displayed as Chinese scene names via linked buttons on the integrated control console touchscreen. Simultaneously, interactive operation between the monitoring video software and the big data interface is achieved through command code control and WebSocket technology. Control software workflow: a. Platform access mode: Four options are provided; clicking one will bring up a dialog box to select the platform access mode; b. Main platform operation: The interface is divided into four areas, which can be controlled separately or switched to a pre-defined main interface by entering a scene.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment provides a method for ensuring the communication network and power supply system of the command center:

[0044] 1. Methods for ensuring communication network security:

[0045] The work area has two 24-port network hubs with IP addresses of 192.168.10 / 20; the function interface server has four 24-port network hubs with IP addresses of 192.168.30 / 40 / 50 / 60; and two external platform access 24-port network hubs with IP addresses of 192.168.70 / 80. All hubs are connected in parallel to the primary network switch 192.168.1.2, and connected upstream to the multi-network access router 192.168.1.1 via a 10 Gigabit optical port. The multi-network router is connected upstream to a 10 Gigabit PON fiber optic converter, which connects to the external main fiber optic cable and also to a triple-play communication device. The triple-network converged communication equipment is a self-developed multi-network, multi-channel network assurance device. It consists of three sets of 5G communication modules forming a matrix linked to a network load balancing gateway. An external controller uniformly sends commands to execute operations such as testing, calling, and hibernation. External connection uses a network bridging scheme. It can simultaneously use three Unicom, three Telecom, and three Mobile communication cards to provide network assurance. The device has three sets of external signal amplification devices. It is installed outdoors in a T-shaped deployment. A single communication card can provide downlink / uplink network speeds of 300Mbps / 20Mbps, with a theoretical bandwidth of 100M. The whole device can provide 300M bandwidth and downlink / uplink: 900Mbps / 60Mbps network communication assurance. The device has the ability to autonomously test the network and switch network operator card groups. After powering on, it automatically starts network testing and automatically selects the operator card group with the highest speed and stability for network assurance. When the command room uses the local wired network, the device goes into hibernation standby and does not generate traffic.

[0046] Power supply system protection:

[0047] Each seat in the command center seating area is powered by a PDU connected to the UPS in the equipment room; other wall power supplies use conventional power supply methods, connected to the front-end voltage regulator and isolated from the power supply in the back-end equipment room; the PDUs of the equipment in the equipment room are connected to the UPS and connected to the external power supply, with a 300KVA diesel generator connected in parallel as a backup power supply.

[0048] Example 3:

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, the complete shale oil field construction command platform introduces the following technical methods and management measures to provide technical functional support and ensure the timeliness, accuracy, and authenticity of information flow and other management basis:

[0050] 1. Comprehensive patrol monitoring technology:

[0051] By optimizing video signal transmission through mesh networking, and simultaneously linking to the instrument vehicle signal source and automatically integrating the lighting monitoring lighthouse with the necessary on-site base station functions for on-site APP terminal users, clear and smooth video transmission is achieved. The technology of remote joystick linkage has been mastered, enabling 360-degree on-site monitoring with no blind spots and zoom capabilities. Using information technology as a carrier, full coverage of supervision is achieved, allowing for the timely detection of violations and hidden dangers, immediate rectification, strict control of risks and hazards, and improvement of safe construction management. Monitoring videos are grouped and linked to a splicing and control processor, and control functions are integrated into dedicated control software in the command center, enabling seamless switching, free combination, multi-scenario linking, and reuse.

[0052] Its remote, multi-angle control of the monitoring camera footage within the construction site, coupled with remote broadcasting technology, allows for the timely warning and cessation of violations upon detection of unauthorized operations. The system can also capture and record footage, uploading it to a server for playback of historical footage, achieving the goal of comprehensively controlling risks and hazards and improving the level of safe construction management.

[0053] 2. Zero-delay transmission technology for fracturing curves:

[0054] In large-scale fracturing operations, the large number of personnel and equipment involved, the regular vibrations from equipment operation, and interference from mobile phones and walkie-talkies among on-site staff all increase the difficulty of remote curve transmission and real-time communication guidance. To address the unique environment of the construction site, an intelligent data routing transmission method and an automatic frequency hopping anti-interference method were developed, overcoming the challenge of zero-delay transmission of fracturing curves. When the system detects fluctuations or interruptions in the curve data, it first checks the construction progress in the system, automatically determines whether the current data is under high or low load, and decides whether to automatically switch data channels based on the process progress to combat various signal interferences at the construction site. The data curve is then encrypted via a serial port server and a hardware encoding unit before being transmitted wirelessly to the cloud server and the directional receiving end in the command center (using on-site wireless LAN). After local reception in the command center, the data curve is finally presented and restored via a hardware decoding unit, a serial port server, and a data curve server. The control functions are integrated into the dedicated control software in the command center, enabling seamless switching, free combination, multi-scenario linking, and reuse.

[0055] The fracturing data acquisition device installed in the fracturing instrument vehicle transmits various data generated during fracturing operations, such as oil pressure, casing pressure, and sand concentration, to the operation command platform in the form of a data stream. After being analyzed by the backend equipment, the data is presented as curves on the physical terminal, achieving synchronous display with the data inside the instrument vehicle. This allows technicians to remotely control the entire fracturing process without entering the instrument vehicle, enabling them to promptly identify problems that arise during the operation.

[0056] 3. Expert online command method:

[0057] By reconstructing real-time fracturing curves through data inversion, and analyzing parameters such as displacement, sand concentration, and pressure during fracturing operations, this data is integrated with the multimedia audio-visual system, distributed seat management, and remote video conferencing of the shale oil field operation command platform into the "Smart Downhole" Android APP. This makes the operation command room like an instrument vehicle, breaking the limitations of time and location, and meeting the needs of experts to provide remote technical guidance from multiple wells in different locations. When encountering complex working conditions and difficult procedures, experts can also conduct joint diagnosis and analysis.

[0058] 4. Standardized information management process:

[0059] Based on the participating units, construction stages, and construction procedures, a set of production command and control procedures suitable for platform well groups at shale oil construction sites has been developed, covering well site exploration, operation preparation, fracturing construction, and drilling plugging. This process involves the responsibilities and authority management of five major areas: production, equipment, materials, QHSE, and technology. It details time nodes, clarifies the division of tasks, and strictly enforces confidentiality regulations to ensure the orderly progress of each process and the smooth construction of shale oil wells.

[0060] The system will extract the human figures contained in the captured images and compare them with the pre-set digital models in the system. Through deep fusion structural algorithms, it will determine whether there are any violations and can select the part where the violation occurred and push it to the system page, realizing the transformation from manual monitoring of images to automatic detection of violations by the system.

[0061] The system collects equipment operation data, material consumption data, and construction progress data from each unit of water supply, sand supply, liquid supply, and fracturing. Through the designed system logic, it determines the critical warning and abnormal alarm of each indicator and provides the optimal processing results, providing a strong basis for construction process control, anomaly prediction, and remote decision-making.

[0062] Example 4:

[0063] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment provides a case study of applying an operation command platform and construction method suitable for shale oil field operations to actual production. It was successfully applied in the Gulong Shale Oil No. 1 test well group, ensuring stable and efficient operation of the construction site for 40 days. As of June 2022, it has been applied in 47 wells in shale oil exploration and development fracturing operations, including 22 horizontal wells and 25 vertical wells. Compared with standard wells, the overall fracturing efficiency improved by 44% for independent horizontal wells, 8.9% for platform horizontal wells, and 23.3% for vertical wells. The number of personnel responsible for construction command, safety supervision, material management, and equipment status monitoring was reduced from 85 to 32, a reduction of 62.4%.

[0064] During the construction of the Gulong 2 experimental area, a dual-platform approach was adopted, integrating the shale oil command center platform with the platform. Through simple hardware connections and software configuration, the fusion and scheduling of the two different platform systems were completed within half a day, effectively ensuring the timeliness of the construction command process. Throughout the entire construction and production command process, the platform system operated stably with zero failures; the switching between the dual and single platforms was seamless, achieving the expected one-click operation instead of manually changing hardware connections; the fusion presentation was excellent, fulfilling the expectation of replacing the multi-platform, multi-system integration development approach.

[0065] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
