Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drilling engineering, and in particular relates to a device and method for monitoring leakage in a deep well in a fractured formation. Background Art
[0002] With the progress of exploration and development of oil and gas fields, the drilling of deep wells, ultra-deep wells, horizontal wells, directional wells and window sidetracking wells has increased, which has put forward higher requirements for monitoring of overflow and well leakage data on site, and the difficulty of well control management has increased. Among them, monitoring of drilling leakage during drilling can ensure the safety of the drilling process, so leakage monitoring technology is an important technology at the drilling site.
[0003] At present, the overall leakage monitoring technology at the drilling site still uses real-time drilling engineering parameter monitoring, mud circulation parameters, and changes in gas measurement parameters to identify overflow and well leakage. The judgment method mainly relies on the personal experience of on-site staff, specifically:
[0004] By observing the parameters directly measured by the integrated logging instrument and the changes in multiple parameters, the signs of accidents can be captured in time; the changes in the liquid level in the mud pool are observed. Under normal drilling conditions, the liquid level in the mud pool fluctuates around a certain value. When an overflow accident occurs, the liquid level in the mud pool rises, and when a well leakage accident occurs, the liquid level in the mud pool drops.
[0005] There are many problems with the existing spill monitoring technology during use:
[0006] (1) The comprehensive logging technology monitoring method is limited by the quality of equipment and personnel. At the same time, because the identification of accidents is based on the personal experience of logging technicians, there are still serious deficiencies in intelligence;
[0007] (2) The method of observing the liquid level in the mud pool can monitor overflow and well leakage, but this method has a serious time lag and the early warning is not real-time enough; due to the large bottom area of the mud pool, the liquid level rise is not sensitive enough to small leakage amounts.
[0008] Based on the above problems, the present application proposes a deep well leakage monitoring device and method in fractured formations, which obtains the pump pressure, drilling fluid inlet flow and drilling fluid outlet flow in real time through sensors and transmits them to a computer, which is then compared with the set threshold after calculation by the computer, thereby achieving the purpose of downhole overflow and well leakage early warning; by transmitting data in real time, the timeliness of early warning monitoring is guaranteed, and compared with the traditional method of alarming through subjective judgment based on experience, the early warning accuracy is effectively improved, and well leakage overflow can be discovered and accurately predicted in time during the drilling process, thereby avoiding the occurrence of major accidents.

Figure 3 As shown;
[0196] Combined with the drilling log, the SY-1 well experienced overflow conditions after the 33rd time node;
[0197] like Figure 2 As shown, before the 33rd time node, it was a normal drilling state. After the 33rd time node, the pump pressure showed a downward trend and overflow conditions occurred.
[0198] according to Figure 3 It can be seen that before the 33rd time node, the difference between the well fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate fluctuated between 0.05 and 0.2, and its change trend was relatively stable.

[0203] Step 12: Computer 4 calculates the change rate K of the difference between the drilling fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate of Well SY-1 i And the change rate of the pump pressure difference of SY-1 well K′ i ;
[0204] Step 13: Based on the calculated change rate K of the difference between the drilling fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate of the SY-1 well i And the change rate of the pump pressure difference of SY-1 well K′ i Determine whether leakage or overflow occurs;
[0205] When K′ i , K′ i+1 , K′ i+2 , ..., K′ i+N are all less than -0.0043, and K i , K i+1 , K i+2 , ..., K i+N When both are less than 0.0421, it is judged as lost circulation;

Figure 5 As shown;
[0215] Combined with the drilling log, Well MX-22 experienced a lost circulation condition after the 25th time node;
[0216] according to Figure 4 It can be seen that the pump pressure fluctuates slightly at the 0th to 25th time nodes, which is a normal working condition. At the 25th time node, the pump pressure drops, and a leakage condition occurs.
[0217] according to Figure 5 It can be seen that before the 25th time node, the change trend of the difference between the well fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate was relatively stable. After the 25th time node, the difference between the well fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate dropped rapidly, resulting in a lost circulation condition.

[0222] Step 12: Computer 4 calculates the change rate K of the difference between the drilling fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate of the MX-22 well i And the change rate of the MX-22 well pump pressure difference K′ i ;
[0223] Step 13: Based on the calculated change rate K of the difference between the drilling fluid outlet flow rate and the drilling fluid inlet flow rate of the MX-22 well i And the change rate of the MX-22 well pump pressure difference K′ i Determine whether leakage or overflow occurs;
[0224] When K′ i , K′ i+1 , K′ i+2 , ..., K′ i+N are all less than -0.02146, and K i , K i+1 , K i+2 , ..., K i+N When both are less than -1.179, it is judged as a lost circulation;
