[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] Figure 2 A flowchart of a method for determining the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen is provided for the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the case of determining the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen. The method can be performed by a device for determining the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen. The device for determining the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The device for determining the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen can be configured in an electronic device. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0034] S110. Determine the expected total production and horizontal section toe pressure of the target horizontal oil well after acidizing and production.

[0035] Among them, oil well acidizing treatment is an oil field production-increasing technology that injects acidic liquid into the horizontal section and utilizes the chemical reaction between the acidic liquid and reactive minerals in the formation to dissolve the connected pores or natural fracture wall rocks in the reservoir, thereby improving the permeability and production capacity of the well section.

[0036] Among them, the horizontal section toe pressure refers to the pressure at the end of the horizontal section, that is, the pressure at the farthest point of the horizontal section relative to the wellhead, which can be used to evaluate the dynamic characteristics of the reservoir, such as reservoir permeability, reservoir flow law and production capacity.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present invention, the expected total production and horizontal section toe pressure after the target horizontal oil well is acidified and put into production can be determined according to the development and production allocation requirements or the oil well production capacity. Among them, the development and production allocation requirements are usually based on the development plan and economic budget of the oil well, and the oil well production capacity needs to be evaluated by various exploration methods and comprehensive consideration of various oil well parameters.

[0038] S120, dividing the target horizontal oil well into N sections, and determining the expected oil production of each section of the horizontal oil well according to the expected total production.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, the target horizontal oil well can be evenly divided into N sections according to the length of the target horizontal oil well, and the expected total production of the oil well can be evenly distributed to each section to determine the expected oil production of each section of the sub-horizontal oil well. Alternatively, the target horizontal oil well can be divided into N sections according to the actual conditions of the oil well, such as geological characteristics, lithology changes, etc., and the length of each section of the sub-horizontal oil well is calculated. In combination with the expected total production and the total length of the target horizontal oil well, the capacity allocation ratio is determined, and the expected oil production of each section of the sub-horizontal oil well is further determined.

[0040] For example, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of horizontal segmentation and wellbore flow is shown, such as Figure 3 As shown, the horizontal section is evenly divided into N sections of horizontal oil wells, wherein the right side of the first section of the horizontal oil well is the toe of the horizontal section. The acid flows toward the toe of the horizontal section, and the flow direction of the crude oil is opposite to that of the acid.

[0041] S130 . For each of the N sections of sub-horizontal oil wells, determine a first bottom hole flowing pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well and the toe pressure of the horizontal section.

[0042] Among them, bottom hole flowing pressure refers to the bottom hole pressure measured during oil well production, which represents the back pressure generated by the residual pressure at the wellhead and the weight of the liquid column in the wellbore on the bottom of the well.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present invention, after the expected oil production of each sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the expected total production, the first bottom hole flowing pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well can be determined in combination with the horizontal segment toe pressure determined in step S110.

[0044] S140. Determine the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well according to the first bottom hole flow pressure; wherein the length of the flow-limiting screen is the same as the length of the sub-horizontal oil well.

[0045] Among them, the flow-limiting screen is a device used in the oil well production process, generally made of metal materials, with certain pressure resistance and corrosion resistance. The flow-limiting screen is usually installed at the bottom of the oil well casing or tubing. Its main functions include limiting flow, controlling pressure difference and preventing blowout.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present invention, the number of holes of the flow-limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well can be determined according to the first bottom hole flow pressure. The flow-limiting screen with the determined number of holes is placed in the sub-horizontal oil well, and acidizing and production operations are performed according to the established construction procedures to obtain a relatively balanced production profile. It should be noted that when placing the flow-limiting screen, the length of the flow-limiting screen should be ensured to be the same as the length of the sub-horizontal oil well.

[0047] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention determines the expected total production and horizontal section toe pressure of the target horizontal oil well after acidizing and production; divides the target horizontal oil well into N sections, and determines the expected oil production of each section of sub-horizontal oil wells according to the expected total production; for each section of the N sections of sub-horizontal oil wells, determines the first bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well and the horizontal section toe pressure; determines the number of holes of the flow limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well according to the first bottom hole flow pressure; wherein the length of the flow limiting screen is the same as the length of the sub-horizontal oil well. The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention designs the number of holes of the flow limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected total production and the horizontal section toe pressure, so as to achieve a balanced production profile after acidizing and production.

[0048] Embodiment 2

[0049] Figure 4 This is a flow chart of a method for determining the number of holes of a flow-limiting screen provided in the second embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of the present invention is optimized based on the above embodiment. For solutions not described in detail in the embodiment of the present invention, please refer to the above embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0050] S210. Determine the expected total production and horizontal section toe pressure of the target horizontal oil well after acidizing and production.

[0051] For example, the horizontal section of a well is 10,000 feet long, the wellbore radius is 6 inches, and the basic parameters of the well are shown in Table 1.

[0052] Table 1 Basic parameters of a well reservoir and wellbore

[0053] Parameter information Numeric unit L 10000 ft h 150 ft <![CDATA[k H ]]> 350 md <![CDATA[k V ]]> 25 md <![CDATA[r w ]]> 0.5 ft <![CDATA[2y b ]]> 3000 ft <![CDATA[y0]]> 1500 ft <![CDATA[z0]]> 75 ft <![CDATA[p e ]]> 2700 psia <![CDATA[p wf ]]> 2600 psia <![CDATA[μ0]]> 8 cp <![CDATA[B0]]> 1 <![CDATA[ρ o ]]> 65.5 <![CDATA[lbm / ft 3 ]]> ε 0.0006 D 4 in Q 10000 STB / d

[0054] The planned production of the well is 10,000 barrels per day. The expected total production of the well and the toe pressure of the horizontal section after acidizing and production can be determined based on the development production requirements.

[0055] S220, dividing the target horizontal oil well into N sections, and determining the expected oil production of each section of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected total production.

[0056] For example, N=10 can be taken, so that the well is divided into 10 sections on average, and the expected total production of the oil well is evenly distributed to each section to obtain the expected oil production of each section.

[0057] S230: Determine the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well.

[0058] Flow friction refers to the resistance encountered by liquid or gas when flowing in a pipe or medium, and is used to describe the energy loss when the liquid flows. Flow friction generally depends on factors such as fluid properties, fluid velocity, pipe size and shape, and pipe wall surface conditions.

[0059] Specifically, the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well, including: determining the well flow rate of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well; wherein the well flow rate is the sum of the expected oil production of each section of sub-horizontal oil well before the sub-horizontal oil well and half of the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well; the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the well flow rate.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, before determining the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well, the well flow rate of the sub-horizontal oil well needs to be determined first. Specifically, the well flow rate of the current sub-horizontal oil well can be obtained by adding the sum of the expected oil production of each section of sub-horizontal oil wells before the current sub-horizontal oil well to half of the expected oil production of the current sub-horizontal oil well. Afterwards, the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well can be determined according to the well flow rate of the sub-horizontal oil well.

[0061] Specifically, the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the flow rate in the well, including:

[0062] The flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the following formula:

[0063]

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] Among them, △P wfp represents the flow friction, q represents the flow rate in the sub-horizontal oil well, l represents the length of the sub-horizontal oil well, f represents the friction coefficient, ρ o represents the crude oil density, D represents the inner diameter of the sub-horizontal oil well, ε represents the relative roughness of the pipe wall of the sub-horizontal oil well, Re represents the pipe flow Reynolds number, μ o Indicates the viscosity of crude oil.

[0067] For example, after determining the in-well flow rate of a sub-horizontal oil well of a certain well, the flow friction of the well can be calculated according to the above formula and the basic parameter values ​​in Table 1 above. The specific calculation results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0068] S240. Determine the first bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the flow friction and the horizontal section toe pressure; wherein the first bottom hole flow pressure is the difference between the horizontal section toe pressure and the flow friction of the corresponding sub-horizontal oil well.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, after the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well is determined, the first bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well can be determined according to the flow friction and the horizontal section toe pressure. Specifically, the first bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well can be obtained by subtracting the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well from the horizontal section toe pressure.

[0070] For example, the first bottom hole flow pressure of a well can be calculated based on the toe pressure of the horizontal section of the well and the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well. The specific calculation results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0071] S250. Calculate the expected skin coefficient of the sub-horizontal oil well after acidizing according to the first bottom hole flowing pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well.

[0072] The skin coefficient is a parameter that describes the seepage characteristics of oil wells and represents the additional resistance between the reservoir and the wellbore. The value of the skin coefficient can be positive or negative. A positive value is used to represent the obstruction of the reservoir to the flow of fluids, while a negative value is used to represent the enhancement of the reservoir to the flow of fluids.

[0073] Specifically, according to the first bottom hole flowing pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well, the expected skin factor of the sub-horizontal oil well after acidizing is calculated, including:

[0074] The expected skin factor of the sub-horizontal oil well after acidizing is calculated according to the following formula:

[0075]

[0076] Where s is the expected skin factor, q in represents the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well, k represents the average permeability of the reservoir, L represents the length of the target horizontal oil well, P e Reservoir pressure, P wfp represents the first bottom hole flowing pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well, B0 represents the crude oil system coefficient, r w represents the diameter of the sub-horizontal oil well, h represents the thickness of the oil layer, I an represents the reservoir anisotropy coefficient, y b Expressed as half the reservoir width.

[0077] For example, after determining the first bottom hole flow pressure of a sub-horizontal oil well of a certain well, the expected skin coefficient of the well can be calculated according to the above formula and the basic parameter values ​​in Table 1 above. The specific calculation results are shown in Table 2.

[0078] Table 2 Flow friction, first bottom hole flow pressure and expected skin coefficient of a well

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] S260. Calculate the expected acid-etched wormhole length of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected skin coefficient, and calculate the expected acid injection amount of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected acid-etched wormhole length.

[0082] Among them, acid wormholes refer to the channels or holes formed by acid corrosion of the reservoir during the acidizing treatment of oil wells. The formation of acid wormholes plays an important role in increasing the seepage channels between the reservoir and the wellbore and improving the production capacity of oil wells.

[0083] Specifically, based on the expected skin factor, the expected acid-etched wormhole length of the sub-horizontal oil well is calculated, including:

[0084] The expected length of the acid-etched wormhole in the sub-horizontal oil well is calculated according to the following formula:

[0085] -s

[0086] r wh =r w e;

[0087] The expected acid injection volume of the sub-horizontal oil well is calculated based on the expected acid wormhole length, including:

[0088] The expected acid injection volume of the sub-horizontal oil well is calculated according to the following formula:

[0089]

[0090] Among them, r w Represents the diameter of the sub-horizontal oil well, r wh represents the expected acid-etched wormhole length, s represents the expected skin factor, COV represents the expected acid inflow, φ represents the porosity, and PV represents the expected acid inflow. bt Indicates the PV number of acid penetrating the core.

[0091] It should be noted that when calculating the expected acid-etched wormhole length of a sub-horizontal oil well, the sub-horizontal oil well with a positive expected skin coefficient needs to be processed so that its expected skin coefficient is 0.

[0092] For example, after a sub-horizontal oil well with a positive expected skin coefficient is processed and its expected skin coefficient is set to 0, the expected acid-etched wormhole length and the expected acid injection volume of the sub-horizontal oil well are calculated using the above formula and the flow-limiting screen completion and acidizing parameters in Table 3. The specific calculation results are shown in Table 4 below.

[0093] Table 3: Flow-limiting screen completion and acidizing parameters for a well

[0094] S270, determining the horizontal section end pressure of the target horizontal oil well after acidizing and production.

[0095] The horizontal section end pressure refers to the pressure of the closest point of the horizontal section relative to the wellhead, which can reflect the initial pressure and pressure attenuation of the reservoir, the relationship between the wellbore and the reservoir, etc. In the embodiment of the present invention, the horizontal section end pressure after the target horizontal oil well is acidified and put into production can be determined according to the development and production allocation requirements or the oil well production capacity.

[0096] S280. Determine the second bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the flow friction and the horizontal section bottom end pressure; wherein the second bottom hole flow pressure is the difference between the horizontal section bottom end pressure and the flow friction of the corresponding sub-horizontal oil well.

[0097] In the embodiment of the present invention, after the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well is determined, the second bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well can be determined according to the flow friction and the horizontal section bottom end pressure. Specifically, the second bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well can be obtained by subtracting the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well from the horizontal section bottom end pressure.

[0098] S290. Determine the number of holes of the flow-limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected acid inflow amount.

[0099] Specifically, the number of holes of the flow-limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the expected acid inflow, including:

[0100] The number of holes of the flow-restricting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well is determined according to the following formula:

[0101]

[0102]

[0103] Where n is the number of holes, COV is the expected acid injection volume, l is the length of the sub-horizontal oil well, C D Indicates the hole flow coefficient, D hole Indicates the inner diameter of the hole, P wfa represents the second bottom hole flowing pressure, P e represents reservoir pressure, ρ a represents the density of acid liquid, t inj Indicates the acidification construction time, Q a Indicates the acid wellhead injection rate, COV i represents the expected acid injection volume of the ith sub-horizontal oil well, and N represents the total number of sub-horizontal oil wells.

[0104] For example, after the expected acid injection rate of a well is determined, the number of holes of the flow-limiting screen of the sub-horizontal oil well can be determined according to the expected acid injection rate and the parameters in Table 1 and Table 3. The specific results are shown in Table 4.

[0105] Table 4 Acidizing operation parameter calculation and flow limiting screen hole number table for a well

[0106]

[0107] It can be seen from Table 4 that the number of holes of the flow-limiting screen pipes in each section from the toe end to the heel end of the horizontal section are 50, 37, 23, 10, 3, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0. After the flow-limiting screen pipes are installed according to the hole distribution, the well is put into production according to the production allocation of 10,000 barrels / day, and a relatively balanced production profile can be obtained.

[0108] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention determines the expected total production and horizontal section toe pressure of the target horizontal oil well after acidizing and production; divides the target horizontal oil well into N sections, and determines the expected oil production of each sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected total production; determines the flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected oil production of the sub-horizontal oil well; determines the first bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the flow friction and the horizontal section toe pressure; wherein the first bottom hole flow pressure is the difference between the horizontal section toe pressure and the flow friction of the corresponding sub-horizontal oil well; according to the first bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well , calculate the expected skin coefficient after acidizing of the sub-horizontal oil well; calculate the expected acid wormhole length of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected skin coefficient, and calculate the expected acid injection amount of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected acid wormhole length; determine the horizontal section heel pressure after the target horizontal oil well is put into production after acidizing; determine the second bottom hole flow pressure of the sub-horizontal oil well according to the flow friction and the horizontal section heel pressure; wherein the second bottom hole flow pressure is the difference between the horizontal section heel pressure and the corresponding flow friction of the sub-horizontal oil well; determine the number of holes of the flow-limiting screen placed in the sub-horizontal oil well according to the expected acid injection amount.
