Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of oil and gas reservoir drilling rock mechanics, and in particular to a method for analyzing and predicting a safe density range of drilling fluid based on changes in geostress of multiple rock layers during oil and gas reservoir exploitation. Background Art
[0002] During the drilling project, rocks on the trajectory of the drilling wellbore are continuously drilled out, and the stress of the rocks around the wellbore will be redistributed. The drilling fluid will exert corresponding pressure on the well wall, replacing the original stress and maintaining the stability of the well wall. In order to maintain the stability of the well wall during the drilling process, the density of the drilling fluid must be within an appropriate range.
[0003] In order to consider the fluid-solid coupling effect between drilling fluid and wellbore rock when wellbore is damaged, it is necessary to introduce the poroelastic theory.
[0004] Among them, Mehrabian and Abousleiman [1] Taking into account the transverse isotropy of the rock formation and the in-situ stress, the analytical solutions of the wellbore stress, strain and pore fluid pressure under arbitrary wellbore inclination and different wellbore permeability are obtained. ([1].
[0005] Mehrabian A,Abousleiman YN.Generalized poroelastic wellbore problem[J].International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods inGeomechanics,2013,37(16):2727-2754.)
[0006] Jinyan Team [2] By applying the poroelastic theory, the influence of factors such as anisotropy of the wellbore rock mass, multiple weak interlayers, and uneven in-situ stress on the safe density range of the drilling fluid when drilling in any direction is revealed. ([2]. Liu M, Jin Y, Lu Y, et al. A wellbore stability model for a deviated well in a transverselyisotropic formation considering poroelastic effects [J]. Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2016, 49: 3671-3686.)
[0007] Ma Tianshou et al. [3]The fluid-solid coupling analytical solution of the wellbore stress and pore pressure distribution at any drilling angle was solved, revealing the influence of factors such as wellbore rock elastic parameters, strength and permeability anisotropy on the wellbore stress and pore pressure distribution. ([3]. Qiu Y, Ma T, Peng N, et al. Wellbore stability analysis of inclined wells intransversely isotropic formations accounting for hydraulic-mechanical coupling[J]. Geoenergy Science and Engineering, 2023, 224: 211615.)
[0008] However, it should be pointed out that in all the studies on wellbore stability mentioned above, the in-situ geostress of the rock formation where the wellbore is located is given and unchanged. However, the relevant research that further reveals the law of wellbore stability changes caused by mining-induced rock deformation and stress changes is still very limited.
[0009] Li and Gray [4] The solution of reservoir stress change caused by production calculated by one-dimensional strain model is applied to analyze the change of drilling fluid safety density window when drilling in oil and gas reservoirs, and the influence of wellbore inclination and in-situ stress on the drilling fluid safety density range (window) is explored. ([4]. Li X, Gray KE. Wellbore stability of deviated wells in depleted reservoir [C]. Paper presented at the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2015.)
[0010] Godley Team [5] Based on the Geertsma model, the influence of formation deformation caused by oil and gas reservoir development on the tensile and shear failure of completed casing was explored, and it was pointed out that buckling instability and collapse are the main failure mechanisms of casing under oil and gas reservoir compaction. ([5]. Yin Fei, Gao Deli, Zhao Jingfang, et al. Research on prediction of oil and gas reservoir compaction and evaluation of directional wellbore integrity [J]. Chinese Journal of Rock Mechanics and Engineering, 2015, 34(S2): 4171-4177.)
[0011] To date, a lot of research has been done on the issue of wellbore stability. However, the research on the analytical model of wellbore stability when drilling in produced oil and gas reservoirs and surrounding rock formations is still very limited. In particular, the influence mechanism of factors such as rock stratification, anisotropy and viscoelasticity on the instability and damage of wellbore when drilling in the corresponding rock formations is still unclear. There is a lack of quantitative characterization of the safe density range of drilling fluid and the safe drilling direction when drilling in produced oil and gas reservoirs and surrounding rock formations.
[0012] At present, the impact mechanism of mining-induced rock deformation and stress changes on the safe density range of drilling fluid and safe drilling direction in the rock formation is still unclear. The wellbore stability problem in drilling in the exploited oil and gas reservoirs and surrounding rock formations is a key scientific issue that needs to be urgently solved in the current stage of oil and gas development.

[0087] The following will describe with reference to specific embodiments according to the present application.
[0088] In the first aspect, the present application provides a method for analyzing and predicting the safe density range of drilling fluid based on changes in ground stress:
[0089] Step 1: Figure 3 As shown in the left part, a three-dimensional axisymmetric multi-layer oil and gas reservoir model is established, in which the middle layer is the oil and gas reservoir layer, and the upper and lower layers are semi-infinite cap layers and underlying layers;
[0090] In the above multi-layer oil and gas reservoir model, the reservoir layer and the surrounding rock layers are regarded as porous elastic media, and each rock layer has different material parameters such as elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, tensile and compressive strength. The exploitation reduces the pore fluid pressure inside the oil and gas reservoir by Δp(r). The remaining model dimensions are shown in Figure 3 Left part.
[0091] Step 2: Based on the Navier static equilibrium equation of porous media,
[0092] The Navier static equilibrium equation for porous media is:
[0093]
[0094] Where G represents the shear modulus of rock, and the unit can be Pa or psi; v represents the Poisson's ratio of rock, and α is the Biot coefficient;
[0095] u i,jj represents the displacement u of the rock i Calculate the second-order partial derivatives in each coordinate axis direction and sum them up, that is, The final result is a scalar; i = 1, 2, 3; in the three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system u i Include ux (i=1),u y (i=2) and u z (i=3); in cylindrical coordinate system, including u r (i=1),u θ (i=2) and u z (i=3), these two coordinate systems are used in the embodiments of the present application, so they are expressed in the form of tensors to unify the expression results of the two coordinate systems.
[0096] ε kk,i represents the volume strain of rock ε kk =ε rr +ε θθ +ε zz The derivative of the i-th coordinate axis in the coordinate system is the derivative of the x-direction, y-direction or z-direction in the rectangular coordinate system, and the derivative of the r-direction, theta-direction or z-direction in the cylindrical coordinate system;
[0097] p ,i It represents the derivative of pore water pressure p with respect to the i-th coordinate axis in the coordinate system.
[0098] In the three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system and the cylindrical coordinate system, equation (1) is expressed in tensor form. Equation (1) actually represents three equations, namely, the three equations in the case of i = 1, 2, 3. In the three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system, i = 1, 2, 3 corresponds to x, y, z respectively; in the cylindrical coordinate system, i = 1, 2, 3 corresponds to r, θ, z respectively.
[0099] Find the divergence of equation (1) and apply the operator properties, Simultaneous displacement-strain relationship u i,i =ε kk , the governing equation describing the strain-pore pressure relationship of the three-dimensional axisymmetric multi-layer oil and gas reservoir model, the Beltrami-Michell equation, can be obtained:
[0100]
[0101] In the above displacement-strain relationship u i,i =ε kk in, u i,i is the displacement u of the rock i Calculate the second-order partial derivatives in each coordinate axis direction and sum them up, that is, The displacement of the rock u i The first-order partial derivative in a certain coordinate axis direction is the strain in that direction, and the sum of the strains in all directions is the volume strain ε kk , so there is
[0102] In the above middle, is the gradient operator, which is a vector, When this operator acts on a scalar (i.e. a number) That is, we get a vector. When two vectors are operated on, we get a scalar, such as because It is just an operator, and it needs to act on a variable in the end, so we use express. Similarly, where × represents the cross product of vectors.
[0103] Operator Acts on For example,
[0104] In the formula, is the Geertsma uniaxial compression coefficient, where K represents the bulk modulus of the rock and the unit can be Pa or psi.
[0105] Step 3: By applying the Hankel integral transformation method, the control equation (2) is transformed into the Hankel space for solution. After the control equation is transformed into the Hankel space, combined with the porous elastic mechanics equation, the general solution expression of volume strain and displacement can be obtained (taking the oil and gas reservoir as an example):
[0106]
[0107] In the formula, Refers to the volume strain of the oil and gas reservoir rock formation in the Hankel transform domain, Refers to the first-order Hankel transform of the radial displacement component of the oil and gas reservoir rock formation, It refers to the 0th-order Hankel transform of the vertical displacement component of the oil and gas reservoir strata in the Hankel transform domain. The intermediate variable υ1 is the Poisson's ratio of the rock in the oil and gas reservoir. In the above variables, the subscripts r and z represent the components in the r and z directions in the cylindrical coordinate system of the oil and gas reservoir scale, and the subscript 1 represents the rock layer of the oil and gas reservoir. The symbol ^ on the variable represents the variable in the Hankel space, the superscript (0) represents the 0th order Hankel transform of the corresponding variable, and the superscript (1) represents the 1st order Hankel transform of the corresponding variable; the mth order Hankel transform of the variable f is The corresponding inverse transformation can be expressed as A 1,1 , A 1,2 , A 1,3 and A 1,4 They are all single rock layer parameters, where the first subscript refers to the rock layer, and the second subscript refers to the unknown quantity of the corresponding rock layer.
[0108] It indicates the uniaxial compression coefficient of the rock in the oil and gas reservoir, and the unit can be 1 / Pa or 1 / psi; represents the 0th-order Hankel transformation of the pore water pressure variable p, ξ is the intermediate variable generated by the Hankel transformation, and z1 is the third coordinate axis z of the three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system in the oil and gas reservoir;
[0109] From the above equations, it can be seen that a single rock layer has four unknown parameters (A 1,1 , A 1,2 , A 1,3 , A 1,4 ), while multiple rock layers have n×4 unknown parameters.
[0110] Step 4: Combine the displacement continuity boundary conditions (n×2 boundary conditions, n is the number of rock layers) and the stress continuity boundary conditions (n×2 boundary conditions) of the interlayer contact surface as follows: Figure 3 As shown in the middle part, by combining the general solution and the above n×4 boundary conditions, the corresponding unknown parameter A can be obtained i,j , and combined with the Hankel inverse transform method, the analytical solution of the displacement and stress of each rock layer caused by oil and gas reservoir exploitation is obtained.

[0115] In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the material parameter values of the cover layer and the underlying layer are the same. Figure 3 The middle part is shown.
[0116] Then the displacement continuity boundary condition is:
[0117] That is, at the upper contact surface (i.e. the top of the oil and gas reservoir Bottom of the cap layer z2 = 0) Radial displacement of the cap layer and radial displacement of the reservoir equal.
[0118] That is, at the upper contact surface (i.e. the top of the oil and gas reservoir Bottom of the cap layer z2 = 0) Vertical displacement of the cap layer and vertical displacement of oil and gas reservoirs equal.

[0152] Step 5, by applying multiple coordinate transformations and the improved Kirsch solution method, solve the stress distribution of the borehole wall in the produced oil and gas reservoir and the surrounding rock formations, and obtain the relationship between stress and drilling fluid hydraulic pressure;
[0153] The specific calculation process is as follows:
[0154] Step 5.1: The stress tensor of the oil and gas reservoir and the surrounding rock formations in the cylindrical coordinate system Converted to the rectangular coordinate system, the stress solution S of the oil and gas reservoir and the surrounding rock formations in the rectangular coordinate system due to exploitation is obtained. (p) ;in, is the stress tensor change caused by exploitation in the oil and gas reservoir scale cylindrical coordinate system, S(p) The stress tensor change caused by exploitation in the rectangular coordinate system of the oil and gas reservoir scale can be in Pa or psi. The coordinate transformation formula used is: In the formula, the transformation matrix θ is the azimuth of the drilling position, θ = 0° represents the positive direction of the x-axis, where It can be expressed in matrix form as Shear stress and is 0;
[0155] Step 5.2: S (p) and in-situ stress S (0) The superposition stress is the new formation stress S = S of the exploited oil and gas reservoir and the surrounding rock formations. (p) +S (0) ;
[0156] in is the in-situ geostress tensor S (0) The three components of are the maximum horizontal principal stress, Horizontal minimum principal stress, Vertical stress, superscript (0) refers to the original position. S (0) is the in-situ stress tensor in the rectangular coordinate system at the reservoir scale.
[0157] Step 5.3: Convert the new formation stress S to any drilling (wellbore) inclination i (w) and any drilling (wellbore) direction a (w) The stress tensor in the rectangular coordinate system corresponding to the wellbore S (w) The superscript (w) indicates the stress value corresponding to the wellbore (well), that is, the change in the stress tensor caused by mining in the wellbore scale rectangular coordinate system, where each element is a component in different directions. Figure 5 Schematic diagram in the lower right corner; the coordinate transformation formula applied is: S (w) =TST -1 , where the transformation matrix
[0158] Wherein, the unit of drilling (wellbore) inclination angle i can be degree;
[0159] Step 5.4: Based on the stress tensor S (w) , using the improved Kirsch solution method, solve the stress (state) tensor σ at any point on the wellbore wall (w) , establish σ (w) With drilling fluid hydraulic p w The specific flow chart is as follows: Figure 5 shown.
[0160] Among them, σ (w) It is the stress tensor change caused by mining in the wellbore scale cylindrical coordinate system.
[0161] Figure 5 The flowchart of the calculation of borehole stress in the produced oil and gas reservoir and surrounding rock formations based on the analytical solution of the oil and gas reservoir deformation / stress model is shown.
[0162] The stress (state) tensor at any point on the wellbore wall is obtained σ r'r' etc. are the components of the stress tensor. Specifically, Figure 5 The schematic diagram in the lower left corner, the specific calculation method is as follows (Equation 21-26) The analytical solution is:
[0163] σ r'r' =-p w ; (32)
[0164]
[0165] σ r'θ' =0; (35)
[0166]
[0167] σ r'z' = 0. (37)
[0168] Among them, p w It is the drilling fluid hydraulic pressure, that is, the wellbore fluid pressure.
[0169] Step 6: Based on the obtained stress tensor σ at any point on the wellbore wall (w) With drilling fluid hydraulic p w The tensile failure threshold and shear failure threshold of drilling fluid hydraulic pressure are calculated based on the relationship between rock tensile failure criterion and Mohr-Coulomb shear failure criterion. The corresponding drilling fluid density is converted based on the tensile failure threshold and shear failure threshold of drilling fluid hydraulic pressure as the upper and lower limits of the safe density range of drilling fluid.
[0170] Tensile failure occurs when the maximum tensile effective principal stress of the wellbore exceeds the tensile strength of the rock. The corresponding tensile failure gradient is usually selected as the upper limit of the safe density range of the drilling fluid. Since the wellbore fluid cannot cause any shear stress, the principal stress always occurs on the plane tangent to the wellbore. Therefore, the rock tensile failure criterion can be expressed as:
[0171] σ max +p r ≥σ t . (38)
[0173] Among them, σ max is the maximum principal stress at any point on the borehole wall, σ (w) The maximum eigenvalue of t is the tensile strength of the rock, which is assumed to be zero here. r =p0+Δp is the pore pressure of the rock surrounding the wellbore, p0 is the initial pore pressure of the underground rock, and Δp is the change in pore fluid pressure in the rock formation under oil and gas reservoir production, and the unit can be Pa or psi.
[0174] If formula (38) is met, tensile failure of the wellbore wall will occur.
[0175] By searching for the tangent angle θ' around the wellbore (see Figure 5 ), determine the stress (state) tensor σ at each point on the wellbore wall (w) , and calculate σ (w) The maximum eigenvalue of . Based on the stress tensor σ (w) With drilling fluid hydraulic p w The relationship between σ (w) The maximum eigenvalue of max Indicated as containing p w Substituting the expression into the above formula (38), the drilling fluid hydraulic pressure p that will not cause tensile failure of the wellbore can be determined w The maximum value of the drilling fluid hydraulic tension failure threshold p wt .
[0176] In field practice, the tensile failure gradient of the wellbore can usually be expressed as the tensile failure threshold p of the drilling fluid hydraulic pressure. wt The ratio p to the wellbore depth d wt / d (usually in psi / ft), or it can be expressed by the equivalent drilling fluid density (in lbm / gal). wt / d, the equivalent wellbore fluid density, i.e., drilling fluid density, can be converted to serve as the upper limit of the drilling fluid safety density window.
[0177] The unit of wellbore depth d can be m or ft.
[0178] When the drilling fluid hydraulic pressure is too low, wellbore collapse may occur due to shear failure of the wellbore wall caused by high pressure stress generated by the surrounding rocks. This application uses the Mohr-Coulomb shear failure criterion to estimate the shear failure threshold of the wellbore wall. The failure criterion can be expressed as:
[0179]
[0180] Among them, σ min and σ maxis the minimum and maximum principal stress at any point on the borehole wall, σ (w) The minimum and maximum eigenvalues of the wellbore; φ is the friction angle of the wellbore rock, σ c is the cohesive strength of the rock.
[0181] If formula (39) is met, tensile failure of the wellbore wall will occur.
[0182] By searching for the tangent angle θ' around the wellbore (see Figure 5 ), determine the stress (state) tensor σ at each point on the wellbore wall (w) , and calculate σ (w) The minimum and maximum eigenvalues of the stress tensor σ (w) With drilling fluid hydraulic p w The relationship between σ (w) The minimum and maximum eigenvalues of min and σ max Indicated as containing p w Substituting the expression into the above formula (39), the drilling fluid hydraulic pressure p that will not cause shear failure of the wellbore can be determined w The minimum value of drilling fluid hydraulic shear failure threshold p wt .
[0183] In field practice, the shear failure of the wellbore corresponding to the density gradient of the drilling fluid can usually be expressed as the shear failure threshold p of the drilling fluid hydraulic pressure. ws The ratio of depth p ws / d (usually in psi / ft), or it can be expressed by the equivalent drilling fluid density (in lbm / gal). ws / d, the equivalent drilling fluid density can be converted as the lower limit of the safe density range of the drilling fluid.
[0184] Based on the above steps, by calculating the different drilling inclination angles i (w) and drilling direction a (w) The safe density range of drilling fluid under certain conditions can be used to determine the corresponding safe drilling direction.

In this way, the present application is not limited to any specific combination of hardware and software.
[0192] The following is a verification of the effect of the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present application:
[0193] (1) Verification of the three-dimensional axisymmetric oil and gas reservoir deformation / stress analytical model:
[0194] The analytical solution derived above is verified here with a numerical solution of the same problem. To do this, use Multiphysics (2018) simulates the same problem. The axisymmetric numerical model and its discretization into finite element domains are as follows Figure 2 As shown. The bearing layer is an undrained layer, while the permeable layer has a negative uniform pore pressure variation, that is, the pore fluid pressure decreases in a cylinder with a radius of 500 feet and a thickness of 50 feet. The input parameters of each layer and the size of the numerical solution domain are shown in Table 1. In order to eliminate the far-field boundary effect, the size of the overall numerical solution domain is set to 60 times and 600 times the radial and vertical dimensions of the disturbed pore fluid pressure volume, respectively. The numerical solution domain is discretized using irregular triangular finite elements with adaptive meshes and quadratic shape functions. A local view of the infinite subsurface and permeable layer is shown in Figure 2 As shown in the schematic diagrams in the upper right and lower right corners.
[0195] The analytical solution is compared with the numerical solution using the parameter values in the table below:
[0196] Table 1 Material parameters of each rock formation
[0197]
[0198] In Table 1, TVD is the abbreviation of true vertical depth. Since the true depth is constantly changing during the downward drilling process, the in-situ stress It will also change with depth, so it is generally used in the form of gradient, that is, To describe the in-situ stress in the model. In the process, the in-situ stress at the drilling depth can be obtained by simply multiplying the gradient by the true depth. In the table, E represents the Young's modulus of the rock.
[0199] In agreement with the numerical model, a uniform pore pressure drop p1 = ΔpH(rR) is used in the analytical solution. In Hankel transform space, the same pressure drop distribution can be expressed as Therefore, the displacement and stress solutions of the produced oil and gas reservoir and the surrounding rock formations can be obtained through equations (6) to (17). Figure 2 Points P1, P2, and P3 are selected in the schematic diagram at the lower right corner to compare the analytical solution with the numerical solution. The results are listed in Table 2 for the comparison of radial and tangential stress components; the results for vertical and shear stress components are listed in Table 3. Positive values indicate stretching or counterclockwise rotational trends. The differences in all four stress components predicted by the two solutions are less than 1% at the three points, and the results are consistent for all three stiffness ratios μ = 0.5, 1, and 2.

[0206] ①Continue to apply the material parameters in Table 1 and bring them into the analytical solution of deformation stress of each rock layer. The results are as follows:
[0207] Figure 4 Shown in When the dimensionless stress at the radial distance of the symmetry axis of the impermeable layer changes Variation. The variation of pore fluid causes the change of normalized radial and tangential stresses in the impermeable layer under the conditions of μ = 0.5 and 1. Due to the Poisson effect, a larger stiffness ratio will generate tensile radial and tangential stress changes in the impermeable layer. When r increases, the induced radial and tangential stress changes gradually decrease. The vertical stress change is in a tensile state when r < R and turns into a compressive change when crossing the side interface of the disturbed pore pressure volume. In any region, a larger stiffness ratio will lead to greater vertical stress changes. The shear stress is relatively small, unless the observation point is close to the boundary of the disturbed pore pressure, where a high-gradient change with a finite peak is observed.
[0208] ② Apply the stress analytical solution of the exploited oil and gas reservoir and the surrounding rock layers obtained in the above step 5 to solve the stress state of the surrounding rock of the infill well.
[0209] Finally, the safety density range of the drilling fluid (w) and the drilling direction a (w) under different drilling inclinations i can be calculated to determine the corresponding safe drilling direction.
[0210] Figure 6 Shows the hemispherical diagram of the tensile failure gradient at (r / R, θ) = (0.8, 30°), 5 feet below the top surface of the middle layer. When the wellbore inclination aligns with the minimum horizontal stress before depletion, the maximum value of the tensile failure gradient appears at a wellbore inclination of approximately 45°. The predicted values of the tensile failure gradient vary significantly with the stiffness difference: when μ = 5, it is 0.32 lbm / gal smaller than the homogeneous case; when μ = 1 / 5, it is 1.25 lbm / gal larger than the homogeneous case.
[0211] Figure 7 Shows the hemispherical diagram of the shear failure gradient at (r / R, θ) = (0.8, 30°) with stiffness ratios of μ = 5, 1, and 0.2. Different from the distribution of the tensile failure gradient, the minimum value of the shear failure gradient appears in a vertical or slightly deviated wellbore, whether inside or outside the reservoir. The predicted minimum values of the shear failure gradient are also sensitive to the stiffness difference parameter: when μ = 5, it is 0.75 lbm / gal smaller than the predicted value for the homogeneous layer; when μ = 1 / 5, it is 0.39 lbm / gal larger than the predicted value for the homogeneous layer.
[0212] Based on the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present application, the influence of factors such as differences in rock mechanical parameters, interlayer viscoelastic rheological differences, and rock anisotropy differences on the changes in the safety density range of the drilling fluid and the safe drilling direction caused by oil and gas reservoir exploitation can be revealed.
