[0059] The technical solution in this application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0060] This application discloses a dynamic monitoring method for wellbore trajectory, please refer to Figure 1 In some examples, the present application discloses a method for dynamic monitoring of wellbore trajectory, comprising the following steps:

[0061] S101, continuously obtaining the gamma value of the surrounding environment through the window and using the gamma value to generate a gamma value change curve, the number of windows is multiple groups, each group includes two windows, and each window generates a gamma value change curve;

[0062] S102, when two gamma value change curves corresponding to one group of windows both have amplitude differences, determining a plane where the drill bit travels, and recording it as a first plane;

[0063] S103, constructing two groups of second planes based on the first plane, where the first plane is located between the two groups of second planes;

[0064] S104, adjusting the drill bit to a second plane adjacent to the first plane and moving the drill bit along the second plane until an amplitude difference appears on the drill bit;

[0065] S105, drawing the boundary of the target area according to the direction of the amplitude difference.

[0066] The dynamic monitoring method of the borehole trajectory disclosed in the present application is applied to a drill bit carrying a drilling gamma probe tube, which has multiple windows, such as Figure 2 As shown, during the drilling process, the orientation of the window remains unchanged. The number of windows is multiple groups, each group includes two windows.

[0067] A gamma value variation curve can be generated through each window. The gamma value variation curve is a curve composed of multiple current values ​​converted after the gamma rays in the surrounding environment enter the drilling gamma probe through the window and are processed by the internal crystal and circuit.

[0068] In step S101, the gamma value of the surrounding environment is continuously obtained through the window and the gamma value change curve is generated using the gamma value. When the drill bit is moving forward, when the two gamma value change curves corresponding to one group of windows have an amplitude difference ( Figure 3As shown, the amplitude difference refers to an obvious decrease in the value on the gamma value change curve, corresponding to a line segment similar to a slant line), the plane where the drill bit travels is determined and the plane where the drill bit travels is recorded as the first plane.

[0069] The difference in amplitude between the two gamma value change curves corresponding to a group of windows means that the gamma ray intensity in the surrounding environment of the drill bit is inconsistent. The inconsistent gamma ray intensity indicates that the surrounding environment has changed. For example, when the drill bit is close to the layer surface, a high radiation area or a low radiation area appears near the drill bit. At this time, the surrounding environment of the drill bit needs to be confirmed in order to increase the drilling rate.

[0070] At this time, the plane where the drill bit travels is determined and recorded as the first plane, which is the content in step S102. The obtained first plane is located on the plane where a group of windows corresponding to the two gamma value change curves used are located.

[0071] In step S103, two sets of second planes are constructed based on the first plane. Figure 4 , the first plane is located between the two sets of second planes. Then in S104, the drill bit is adjusted to a second plane adjacent to the first plane and the drill bit is advanced along the second plane until an amplitude difference appears on the drill bit, and then the drill bit is adjusted to the next second plane and the drill bit is advanced along the second plane until an amplitude difference appears on the drill bit.

[0072] These second planes will all be used until no amplitude difference occurs at the drill bit when the drill bit advances along the second plane, which means that the drill bit will not intersect the target area.

[0073] Finally, in S105, the boundary of the target area is drawn according to the direction of the amplitude difference, and the drawing method is to sequentially connect the points where the amplitude difference occurs. The inclined directions of the boundaries of two points (the positions where the drill bit arrives) with the same amplitude difference direction are consistent, and the inclined directions of the boundaries of two points (the positions where the drill bit arrives) with opposite amplitude difference directions are opposite.

[0074] In the above manner, when an amplitude difference is found, the area where the amplitude difference is located can be determined to determine whether there is a reservoir in the area. If the boundary of the target area is very short or very irregular, it means that the probability of the existence of a reservoir is very low, otherwise it means that the probability of the existence of a reservoir is very high.

[0075] In some examples, when two gamma value change curves corresponding to one group of windows have amplitude differences, it is also necessary to determine the boundary surface, and the specific method is as follows:

[0076] S201, determining a curve segment corresponding to the amplitude difference on the residual gamma value change curve according to the curve segments corresponding to the amplitude difference on the two gamma value change curves;

[0077] S202, obtaining the appearance time of the curve segments corresponding to all the amplitude differences;

[0078] S203, determining a generated line segment according to the appearance time of the curve segments corresponding to all the amplitude differences, the line segments are evenly arranged around the axis of the drill bit and the starting points of the line segments correspond to the windows one by one;

[0079] S204: Generate a boundary surface according to the cutoff point of the line segment.

[0080] In step S201 to step S204, the curve segment corresponding to the amplitude difference will first be determined on the remaining gamma value change curve based on the curve segments corresponding to the amplitude difference on the two gamma value change curves. This is because when the drill bit enters the next area, it means that all windows will also enter the next area. At this time, amplitude differences will appear on the gamma value change curves corresponding to all windows, but the values ​​of the amplitude differences are not the same.

[0081] Based on this, the appearance time of the curve segments corresponding to all amplitude differences is obtained ( Figure 5 There is a distance between the three parallel dotted lines, and this distance represents the different appearance times) and then the generated line segments are determined according to the appearance times of the curve segments corresponding to all the amplitude differences. The starting points of the line segments are all located on the same plane, but the end points are different. Finally, the boundary surface is generated according to the end points of the line segments. The specific method is that the end points of the line segments are all located on the boundary surface or the sum of the straight-line distances from the end points of the line segments to the boundary surface is the smallest.

[0082] For the line segments, it is required that the line segments are evenly arranged around the axis of the drill bit and the starting points of the line segments correspond one to one with the windows.

[0083] Furthermore, the following contents are added:

[0084] S301, adjusting the advancing direction of the drill bit to be perpendicular to the boundary surface;

[0085] S302, driving the drill bit to pass through the boundary surface and obtaining a gamma value change curve segment corresponding to the drill bit passing through the boundary surface;

[0086] S303, obtaining the time point of amplitude change on each gamma value change curve segment;

[0087] S304, calculating the difference of all time points, the difference of all time points is within the allowable range, or the angle between the reference boundary surface generated based on all time points and the boundary surface is within the allowable range.

[0088] The contents of step S301 to step S304 are to verify the boundary surface obtained in step S201 to step S204 by adjusting the advancing direction of the drill bit. The specific method is that after adjusting the advancing direction of the drill bit, an actual boundary surface is calculated based on the data obtained during the advancing process of the drill bit. The difference between the actual boundary surface and the calculated boundary surface at all time points needs to be within the allowable range, or the angle between the reference boundary surface generated based on all time points and the boundary surface needs to be within the allowable range.

[0089] Furthermore, it also includes determining the opposite boundary of the target area. The purpose of determining the opposite boundary of the target area is to determine the volume of the target area, because a target area with a small volume has no mining value. The specific method of determining the opposite boundary of the target area is as follows:

[0090] S401, driving the drill bit to enter the target area and move on the first plane until the amplitude difference appears again;

[0091] S402, determining whether the drill bit leaves the target area from the top or the bottom;

[0092] S403, adjusting the forward trajectory of the drill bit according to the departure position of the drill bit, so that the drill bit moves along the edge of the target area;

[0093] S404: Draw the opposite boundary of the target area according to the movement trajectory of the drill bit.

[0094] In step S401 to step S404, the drill bit is first driven to enter the target area and then move on the first plane until an amplitude difference appears again, such as Figure 6 As shown, it means that the drill bit has left the target area and reached a point on the opposite boundary of the target area. Then it is necessary to determine whether the drill bit leaves from the top or the bottom of the target area, because only based on this can it be determined how to adjust the direction of the subsequent drill bit.

[0095] Then, the forward trajectory of the drill bit is adjusted according to the departure position of the drill bit, so that the drill bit moves along the edge of the target area, and finally the opposite boundary of the target area is drawn according to the movement trajectory of the drill bit.

[0096] The specific method to determine whether the drill head leaves the top or bottom of the target area is:

[0097] Select a set of windows located at or near the vertical direction;

[0098] Obtaining corresponding change curve segments on two gamma value change curves of the group of windows;

[0099] Determine the temporal order of the two change curve segments, and determine whether the drill head leaves from the top of the target area or from the bottom of the target area according to the order;

[0100] The change curve segment first appears in the upper window, and the drill head leaves the top of the target area. Figure 7 ; The change curve segment first appears in the lower window, and the drill head leaves the bottom of the target area. Figure 8 .

[0101] The specific way to move the drill bit along the edge of the target area is:

[0102] S501, selecting a group of windows according to the gamma values ​​of the windows when the drill head leaves the target area;

[0103] S502, driving the drill to move continuously, so that the gamma value obtained in the first window of the group of windows is greater than the gamma value obtained in the second window, and the difference between the gamma value obtained in the first window and the gamma value of the window when the drill leaves the target area is within an allowable range.

[0104] The contents of step S501 and step S502 determine the drill position by specific gamma values. There is an obvious difference in the gamma values ​​between the target area and the surrounding environment of the target area. Generally, the influence distance of gamma rays underground is about 0.6-1 meter. Therefore, the drill can be moved along the edge of the target area by the different gamma values ​​fed back by the two windows.

[0105] At this time, it is necessary to ensure that the difference between the gamma value obtained in the first window and the gamma value of the window when the drill bit leaves the target area is within the allowable range. There are two allowable ranges, namely 0.9-1.0 and 1.0-1.1.

[0106] The present application also provides a dynamic monitoring device for a wellbore trajectory, comprising:

[0117] Furthermore, the cut-off points of the line segments are all located on the boundary surface or the sum of the straight-line distances from the cut-off points of the line segments to the boundary surface is the smallest.

[0122] The third processing unit is used to calculate the difference of all time points, and the difference of all time points is within the allowable range, or the angle between the reference boundary surface generated based on all time points and the boundary surface is within the allowable range.

[0123] Furthermore, it also includes:
