Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coordinated control of oilfield gathering and transportation operation and maintenance. Specifically, it relates to a modular-based intelligent operation and maintenance system and method for oilfield gathering and transportation. Background Technique

[0002] In the process of oilfield gathering and transportation, in a region, a transfer station often corresponds to multiple well-site stations. Therefore, ensuring the efficient and stable operation of the transfer station and the well-site stations is crucial for the production of the entire oilfield. Therefore, it is necessary to coordinate and control the well-site stations and transfer stations of oilfield gathering and transportation in the region to ensure the smooth progress of oilfield production;

[0003] In the traditional oilfield gathering and transportation operation and maintenance system, data prediction mostly relies on a single model to make macroscopic adjustments to oilfield gathering and transportation. Simply relying on a physical model, although a basic framework can be constructed based on geological conditions, it is difficult to adapt to the complex changes in actual production in real time. And only using a data-driven model may lack compliance with the physical characteristics and geological laws of the oil reservoir, resulting in a large deviation between the prediction result and the actual situation. The limitations of this single model make the accuracy of the predicted data insufficient, unable to provide a reliable basis for production decisions, and unable to reasonably plan and allocate the oil volume processing cycle of the transfer stations within the subordinate regions, resulting in problems of low practicability and functionality.

[0004] In response to the problems in the related art, no effective solution has been proposed yet. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In response to the problems in the related art, the present invention proposes a modular-based intelligent operation and maintenance system and method for oilfield gathering and transportation to overcome the above technical problems existing in the existing related technologies.

[0015] S122. Based on the historical production data of the gathering stations between wells, construct a data-driven model to optimize the parameters of the physical model. Collect the historical production data of the gathering stations between wells and perform normalization processing, including historical daily oil production, oil well pressure, temperature, water cut, equipment operation duration, and valve opening. Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between each feature and the daily oil production. Its algorithm formula is:

[0016]

[0017] where x i is different eigenvalue, y i is the daily oil production, and respectively represent the mean values of the feature and the daily oil production, n represents the number of samples, and retain the features with |r| > 0.5 as the correlation features;

[0018] Construct a linear regression equation based on the correlation features as the data-driven model to obtain the daily oil production prediction value:

[0025]

[0026] Among them, α represents the learning rate. Validate the model through the validation set and evaluate it through the mean absolute error, represents the coefficient value at time t + 1;

[0027] S123. Combine the predicted oil production value of the comprehensive physical model and the predicted oil production value of the data-driven model based on the weight ratio to obtain the output value of the oil production of the digital twin model:

[0028] Y = ω1 × A + ω2 × B;

[0031] S1231. Based on the output value Y of the daily oil production of the digital twin model between current wells, establish a set of output values of oil production within N days {Y1, Y2, Y3,..., Y N}, with the date as the abscissa and the output value of the daily oil production of the digital twin model between current wells as the ordinate, and draw a line chart of the oil production collection prediction cycle of the current well-interstation.

[0034] S22. For the well - to - station and transfer stations that cannot be coordinated, through the AI algorithm, under the premise of meeting the transfer capacity of the transfer station and the production requirements of each well - to - station, the oil production and transportation process is coordinated and optimized.

[0035] As a preferred implementation manner, the S21 includes the following steps:

[0036] S211. For the oil volume acquisition and prediction cycle of each well - to - station under the jurisdiction of the transfer station, accumulate to obtain the oil volume processing cycle of the transfer station:

[0037] Accumulate the daily oil volume prediction values of the well - to - stations under the jurisdiction of the transfer station within the cycle to obtain the daily oil volume processing prediction value of the transfer station. Where e represents the date and q is the number of the current transfer station;

[0038] S212. Based on the maximum oil volume processing value c of the current transfer station, count the abnormal dates:

[0039] When It represents that the oil volume processing of the transfer station is normal on the current date and no adjustment is required;

[0040] When It represents that the oil volume processing of the transfer station is abnormal on the current date and adjustment is required;

[0041] S213. Count the abnormal dates of the oil volume processing of all transfer stations. When the abnormal dates are consecutive dates, calculate the daily deficit value. At the same time, calculate the surplus value of the transfer stations with normal processing under its jurisdiction. Where f is the abnormal date. When is satisfied, re - plan the oilfield gathering pipeline for the current two transfer stations.

[0042] As a preferred implementation manner, the S22 includes the following steps:

[0043] S221. When the abnormal dates are non - consecutive dates, record the current transfer station as an uncoordinated transfer station and adjust the oil production and transportation parameters of the transfer station and the well - to - stations through a multi - layer perceptron. The steps are as follows:

[0044] Collect the difference data between the historical oil volume processing values of the transfer station and the oil volume acquisition values of the well - to - stations as the input of the input layer. After the non - linear transformation of the hidden layer, the output layer outputs the adjusted oil production and transportation parameters, including the adjusted value of the oil production rate of the well - to - station and the adjusted value of the valve opening of the transfer station. Use the historical data to train the model and adjust the weight and bias parameters of the model by minimizing the objective function;

[0045] S222. On the abnormal date, input the difference between the transfer station and the well - to - well station on that day into the multi - layer perceptron.

[0048] The digital twin model establishment module constructs a digital twin model of the well - to - well stations under the jurisdiction of the region through the combination of physical models and data - driven models. The physical model provides a basic description of the oilfield gathering and transportation process, and the data - driven model uses historical and real - time data to optimize the parameters of the digital twin model;

[0049] The periodic prediction module, based on the output value of the daily oil production of the digital twin model of the current well - to - well station, establishes a set of output values of oil production within N days. Taking the date as the abscissa and the output value of the daily oil production of the digital twin model of the well - to - well station as the ordinate, draw a prediction period broken - line graph of the oil production of the current well - to - well station;

[0050] The station allocation module, for the well - to - well stations under the jurisdiction of the transfer station, according to the oil production prediction periods of different well - to - well stations, combined with the transfer capacity of the transfer station, allocates the well - to - well stations connected to the transfer station in the region, and at the same time uses AI algorithms to optimize the liquid volume, pressure, and temperature parameters in real - time to achieve the coordination of the oil production and transportation processes of the transfer station and the well - to - well stations.

[0051] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0052] 1. Based on the real - time parameters and historical data of the oilfield gathering and transportation transfer stations and well - to - well stations in the region, the present invention establishes a daily oil production prediction digital twin model for the well - to - well stations, establishes a prediction period for the daily oil production of the well - to - well stations under its jurisdiction, and predicts the operation conditions of the transfer stations, so as to conduct centralized control over the gathering and transportation of the transfer stations and well - to - well stations in the region, enhancing the functionality of the method.

[0053] 2. By combining the daily oil production prediction value of the physical model, considering the changes in geological parameters caused by the change of oil storage during the oilfield acquisition process, and integrating the daily oil production prediction value of the data-driven model, the present invention constructs a broken line graph of the oil volume acquisition prediction cycle between current wells and stations.

The digital model can supplement and correct the physical model, and use the information in real-time data and historical data to adjust the prediction results to make them more in line with the actual production situation, enhancing the data accuracy of control adjustment between stations.

[0054] 3. By accumulating the oil volume acquisition prediction cycles of each well-to-station under the jurisdiction of the transfer station, the present invention clarifies the oil volume processing cycle of the transfer station itself. At the same time, the daily oil volume prediction values within the cycle are accumulated to obtain the daily processing prediction value, providing basic data for subsequent analysis to plan the production arrangement, resource reserve, etc. of the transfer station in advance.

[0060] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments:

[0061] Example 1:

[0062] As Figure 1 shown, the modular-based intelligent operation and maintenance method for oilfield gathering and transportation according to the embodiments of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0063] S1. Collect data of oilfield gathering and transportation well stations under the jurisdiction of the region through sensors, and establish a digital twin model for predicting the daily oil production of well stations by combining the predicted value of the current crude oil reserve in the well station and the crude oil collection situation, so as to obtain the oil collection prediction cycle;

[0064] S11. Set sensors in the oilfield gathering and transportation well stations under the jurisdiction of the region, including flow sensors, pressure sensors, and temperature sensors, for collecting real-time flow rate, wellhead pressure, and temperature during the crude oil collection process of the well station;

[0065] S12. Construct a digital twin model of the well stations under the jurisdiction of the region through the combination of physical models and data-driven models. Provide a basic description of the oilfield gathering and transportation process through the physical model, and use historical and real-time data through the data-driven model to optimize the parameters of the digital twin model to obtain the oil collection prediction cycle;

[0066] S121. Collect daily oil production, wellhead pressure, oil well production, and oil well production historical time data of different well stations under the jurisdiction of the region, and combine the geological data of different well stations to construct a three-dimensional geological model of the oil reservoir, describe the distribution, structure, and properties of the reservoir, and simulate the fluid flow process in the oil reservoir through Eclipse to simulate the theoretical oil reservoir pressure and physical model oil production prediction values at different time periods;

[0067] It should be noted that the geological data of the well station includes oil reservoir geological characteristics, reservoir parameters, etc. Among them, the reservoir parameters include permeability, porosity, oil saturation, etc. When constructing the physical model of the well station, it is necessary to further improve the physical model through equations, describe the mass transfer of crude oil in the pipeline based on the mass conservation equation, describe the temperature change of crude oil in the pipeline based on the energy conservation equation, and describe the flow characteristics of crude oil in the pipeline through the Darcy-Weisbach equation.

[0068] S122. Based on the historical production data of the well station, construct a data-driven model to optimize the parameters of the physical model. Collect the historical production data of the well station and perform normalization processing, including historical daily oil production, oil well pressure, temperature, water cut, equipment operation duration, and valve opening, and calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between each feature and the daily oil production. The algorithm formula is:

[0069]

[0070] where x iare different eigenvalue, y i is the daily oil production, and respectively represent the mean values of the feature and the daily oil production, n represents the number of samples, and the features with |r|>0.5 are retained as the correlation features;

[0071] Based on the correlation features, a linear regression equation is constructed as a data-driven model to obtain the predicted value of the daily oil production:

[0072] y = β0 + β1x1 + β2x2 +... + β p x p + ε;

[0073] Among them, β0 is the intercept, β p represents the coefficients of different features, ε is the error term, y is the predicted value of the daily oil production on the current day, and x p represents the feature parameter value on the pth day;

[0074] Use historical data to train the data-driven model and optimize the hyperparameters of the model. The specific steps are as follows:

[0075] Divide the historical data into a training set and a validation set. The training set contains 70% of the historical data, and the validation set contains 30% of the historical data. The mean square error is used as the loss function:

[0076]

[0077] Among them, respectively represent the predicted value at time t and the actual daily oil production at time t, n represents the number of samples, and the model coefficients are iteratively updated by the gradient descent method

[0078]

[0079] Among them, α represents the learning rate. The model is verified through the validation set and evaluated by the mean absolute error, represents the coefficient value at time t + 1;

[0080] It should be noted that the updated coefficient value is obtained by subtracting the product of the learning rate and the partial derivative of the mean square error with respect to the coefficient from the current coefficient value. Each coefficient is iteratively updated separately to gradually find the combination of coefficient values that minimizes the loss function MSE. The calculation formula for the mean absolute error is:

[0081]

[0082] The smaller the MAE, the smaller the average error between the predicted value and the true value of the model, and the better the prediction performance of the model. By combining the magnitude of the collected data to set the judgment threshold, the prediction performance of the model is further judged.

[0083] S123. Based on the predicted oil production of the comprehensive physical model and the predicted oil production of the data-driven model according to the weight ratio, obtain the output value of the oil production of the digital twin model:

[0084] Y = ω1×A + ω2×B;

[0085] Where Y, A, and B represent the daily output value of the oil production of the digital twin model between the current wells, the predicted daily oil production of the physical model, and the predicted daily oil production of the data-driven model respectively. ω1 and ω2 represent the weight ratio, and ω1 + ω2 = 1.

[0086] It should be noted that the weight ratios ω1 and ω2 are set to 0.6 and 0.4, and the weight ratio can also be adjusted according to the actual situation to meet the actual conditions of different well-to-station areas;

[0087] S1231. Based on the daily output value Y of the oil production of the digital twin model between the current wells, establish a set of oil production output values {Y1, Y2, Y3,..., Y N} within N days. Taking the date as the abscissa and the daily output value of the oil production of the digital twin model between the wells as the ordinate, draw a line graph of the oil production collection prediction period for the current well-to-station area.

[0088] It should be noted that by combining the predicted daily oil production of the physical model, the change of geological parameters caused by the change of oil storage during the oilfield collection process can be considered. By integrating the predicted daily oil production of the data-driven model, a line graph of the oil production collection prediction period for the current well-to-station area is constructed. The physical model provides a basic framework and constraints based on the geological situation to ensure that the prediction conforms to the physical characteristics and geological laws of the oil reservoir. The digital model can supplement and correct the physical model, and use the information in the real-time data and historical data to adjust the prediction results to make them more in line with the actual production situation.

[0089] Example 2:

[0090] S2. For the well-to-station areas under the jurisdiction of the transfer station, according to the oil production collection prediction periods of different well-to-station areas, combined with the transfer capacity of the transfer station, allocate the well-to-station areas connected to the transfer station in the region, and at the same time use the AI algorithm to optimize the liquid volume, pressure, and temperature parameters in real time to achieve the coordination of the oil production and transportation process between the transfer station and the well-to-station areas;

[0091] S21. Collect the oil production collection prediction periods of each well-to-station area under the jurisdiction of the transfer station in the region Among them, e represents the date, u represents the number of well-intermediate stations under the current transfer station. The oil volume processing cycle of the current transfer station is statistically obtained, and coordinated optimization is carried out in combination with the processing capacity of the subordinate transfer stations;

[0092] S21 includes the following steps:

[0093] S211. For the oil volume acquisition and prediction cycle of each well-intermediate station under the transfer station, accumulate to obtain the oil volume processing cycle of the transfer station:

[0094] Accumulate the predicted oil volume values of the well-intermediate stations under the transfer station on each day within the cycle to obtain the daily predicted oil volume processing value of the transfer station Among them, e represents the date, and q is the number of the current transfer station;

[0095] S212. Based on the maximum oil volume processing value c of the current transfer station, statistically determine the abnormal dates:

[0096] When It represents that the oil volume processing of the transfer station is normal on the current date, and no allocation is required;

[0097] When It represents that the oil volume processing of the transfer station is abnormal on the current date, and allocation is required;

[0098] S213. Statistically determine the abnormal dates of all transfer stations. When the abnormal dates are consecutive dates, calculate the daily deficit value At the same time, calculate the surplus value of the subordinate transfer stations with normal processing Among them, f is the abnormal date. When is satisfied, re-plan the oilfield gathering pipeline for the current two transfer stations.

[0099] It should be noted that by accumulating the oil volume acquisition and prediction cycles of each well-intermediate station under the transfer station, the oil volume processing cycle of the transfer station itself is clarified. At the same time, the daily processing prediction value is obtained by accumulating the daily oil volume prediction values within the cycle, providing basic data for subsequent analysis to plan the production arrangement, resource reserve, etc. of the transfer station in advance. Pairing and processing the transfer stations for the abnormalities on consecutive dates can eliminate the deviation caused by occasional abnormalities and avoid unnecessary resource waste;

[0100] S22. For the well-intermediate stations and transfer stations that cannot be allocated, through the AI algorithm, coordinate and optimize the oil production and transportation process on the premise of meeting the transfer capacity of the transfer station and the production requirements of each well-intermediate station;

[0101] S221. When the abnormal dates are non-consecutive dates, record the current transfer station as a non-allocated transfer station, and adjust the oil production and transportation parameters of the transfer station and the well-intermediate station through a multi-layer perceptron. The steps are as follows:

[0102] Collect the difference data between the historical oil volume processing values of the transfer station and the oil volume acquisition values of the inter-well stations as the input of the input layer. After the non-linear transformation of the hidden layer, the output layer outputs the adjusted oil production and transportation parameters, including the adjusted oil production rate value of the inter-well stations and the adjusted valve opening value of the transfer station. Use historical data to train the model and adjust the weight and bias parameters of the model by minimizing the objective function;

[0103] S222. On the abnormal date, input the difference between the transfer station and the subordinate inter-well stations on that day into the multi-layer perceptron. The model outputs the adjusted oil production and transportation parameters, including the adjusted oil production rate value of the inter-well stations and the adjusted valve opening value of the transfer station.

[0104] It should be noted that the number of neurons in the output layer is determined according to needs. If it is necessary to output the oil production rate of the inter-well stations, assuming there are 10 inter-well stations in total, the output layer can have 10 neurons, corresponding to the adjusted oil production rate values of each inter-well station respectively. If it is necessary to output the valve opening of the transfer station, the number of neurons in the output layer can be set according to the number of valves of the transfer station. The output value of the neurons in the output layer is the predicted oil production rate of the inter-well stations or the valve opening of the transfer station by the model.

[0105] Embodiment 3:

[0106] As Figure 2 shown, the modular intelligent operation and maintenance system for oilfield gathering and transportation includes a data acquisition module, a digital twin model establishment module, a periodic prediction module, and a station allocation module:

[0107] The data acquisition module includes flow sensors, pressure sensors, and temperature sensors, which are used to collect the real-time flow rate, wellhead pressure, and temperature during the crude oil acquisition process of the inter-well stations, and collect the historical operation data of each inter-well station and transmit it to the subsequent modules;

[0108] The digital twin model establishment module constructs a digital twin model of the inter-well stations under the jurisdiction of the region through the combination of a physical model and a data-driven model. The physical model provides a basic description of the oilfield gathering and transportation process, and the data-driven model uses historical and real-time data to optimize the parameters of the digital twin model;

[0109] The periodic prediction module establishes a set of oil production output values within N days based on the daily digital twin model oil production output value of the current inter-well station. Using the date as the abscissa and the daily digital twin model oil production output value of the inter-well station as the ordinate, draw the oil volume acquisition prediction period line chart of the current inter-well station;

[0110] The station allocation module, for the inter-well stations under the jurisdiction of the transfer station, according to the oil volume acquisition prediction period of different inter-well stations and in combination with the transfer capacity of the transfer station, allocates the inter-well stations connected to the transfer station in the region, and at the same time uses the AI algorithm to optimize the liquid volume, pressure, and temperature parameters in real time to achieve the coordination of the oil production and transportation processes of the transfer station and the inter-well stations.

[0111] In summary, based on the real-time parameters and historical data of oil gathering and transfer stations and inter-well stations in the oilfield within the region, the present invention establishes a daily oil production prediction digital twin model for inter-well stations, establishes a prediction cycle for the daily oil production of the subordinate inter-well stations, predicts the operation status of the transfer stations, and conducts centralized control over the oil gathering and transportation of the transfer stations and inter-well stations in the region, enhancing the functionality of the method;

[0112] By combining the predicted daily oil production value of the physical model, considering the change in geological parameters caused by the change in oil storage during the oilfield collection process, and integrating the predicted daily oil production value of the data-driven model, a broken line graph of the oil production collection prediction cycle of the current inter-well station is constructed. The physical model provides a basic framework and constraints based on the geological situation to ensure that the prediction conforms to the physical characteristics and geological laws of the oil reservoir. The digital model can supplement and correct the physical model, and use the information in the real-time data and historical data to adjust the prediction results to make them more in line with the actual production situation, enhancing the data accuracy of the control adjustment between stations. By accumulating the oil production collection prediction cycles of each inter-well station under the jurisdiction of the transfer station, the oil volume processing cycle of the transfer station itself is clarified. At the same time, the predicted daily oil production values within the cycle are accumulated to obtain the daily processing prediction value, providing basic data for subsequent analysis to plan the production arrangement, resource reserve, etc. of the transfer station in advance, and pairing the transfer stations for the anomalies on consecutive dates, and optimizing the operation and maintenance control of the oil production and transportation coordination of the abnormal transfer stations and inter-well stations for non-consecutive date anomalies, which can eliminate the deviation caused by accidental anomalies and avoid unnecessary resource waste.

[0113] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
