Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of equipment fault diagnosis, and in particular to an electric submersible pump fault early warning method and device based on current change analysis. Background Art
[0002] Electric submersible centrifugal pumps, hereinafter referred to as ESPs, are widely used in oilfield production, especially in thousand-meter drawdown wells. Due to their high head and large flow rate, ESPs are the preferred equipment. It is precisely because the working place of ESPs is generally located in thousand-meter drawdown wells that when ESPs fail, it will bring more complicated maintenance problems. One is that when ESPs fail, it often takes a long time for the staff to rush to the location of the ESPs, which will affect the normal working time of the ESPs. The other is that when the staff arrives at the scene, they can determine the type of fault according to the actual situation, which will delay the progress of maintenance. Both situations will delay the production progress; therefore, it is necessary to monitor the operating status of ESPs in real time and be able to warn of ESP failures, so as to solve the fault problems in advance and ensure the production efficiency of the oil well platform.
[0003] The Chinese patent publication number in the prior art: CN111461551B discloses a method for early warning of electric submersible pump faults based on deep learning and SPC criteria. The method of this technical solution is to construct a CNN-LSTM model and perform standardized training, and then estimate the monitoring parameter value of the electric submersible pump to be evaluated. Based on the gap between the monitoring parameter and the normal state, the health of the electric submersible pump is calculated, and the operation of the electric submersible pump is determined to be abnormal according to the health, thereby triggering an alarm mechanism, reducing the process of manual detection and saving labor costs. However, this technical solution does not determine the fault type when the electric submersible pump is abnormal based on the acquired monitoring parameter value, and thus cannot enable the staff to initiate the corresponding treatment measures in time, which will affect the production efficiency of the oil well platform.

[0018] Furthermore, when comparing the eigenvalue variance with the preset eigenvalue variance, the present invention can further re-determine whether the calculation result of the measured current eigenvalue is qualified based on the average value of several historical eigenvalue variances in several historical periods before the current preset period and the comparison with the eigenvalue variance, thereby improving the accuracy of the determination result.
[0019] Furthermore, when determining that the calculation result of the measured current characteristic value is unqualified, the present invention can calculate the characteristic value amplitude difference by the maximum value and the minimum value among several measured current characteristic values, and determine the cause based on the comparison result of the characteristic value amplitude difference and the preset characteristic value amplitude difference, and generate a corresponding processing method based on the cause, thereby improving the calculation pass rate of the measured current characteristic value.

[0038] in, and It is also a correction factor, which is used to normalize the data within a reasonable range. The standardized calculation of time and current is performed to make the time value and current value meet the requirements of subsequent current characteristic value calculation.
[0039] Further, the process of determining the different current characteristic types includes: The different current characteristic types include a stable current characteristic type, a fluctuating current characteristic type, a shutdown characteristic type, a slowly decreasing characteristic type, a quickly decreasing characteristic type, and an increasing characteristic type.
[0040] If the absolute value of the measured current characteristic value is less than or equal to the stable current characteristic value, it is determined to be the stable current characteristic type; if the absolute value of the measured current characteristic value is greater than the first current characteristic value and less than or equal to the second current characteristic value, and the proportion of the measured characteristic value is less than the proportion of the second characteristic value and greater than the proportion of the first characteristic value, it is determined to be the fluctuating current characteristic type; if the measured current characteristic value is less than or equal to negative 1000, and the number of shutdowns is greater than or equal to 1, it is determined to be the shutdown characteristic type; if the measured current characteristic value is less than the negative first current characteristic value and greater than or equal to the negative third current characteristic value, and the proportion of the measured characteristic value is greater than or equal to the proportion of the third characteristic value, it is determined to be the slowly decreasing characteristic type; if the measured current characteristic value is less than the negative third current characteristic value and greater than or equal to negative 1000, and the proportion of the measured characteristic value is greater than or equal to the proportion of the third characteristic value, it is determined to be the rapidly decreasing characteristic type; if the measured current characteristic value is less than the fourth current characteristic value and greater than or equal to the first current characteristic value, and the proportion of the measured characteristic value is greater than or equal to the proportion of the fourth characteristic value, it is determined to be the increasing characteristic type.
[0041] The stable current characteristic type is as follows: , in, is the characteristic value of the stable current, in A / h; It is basically stable near 0, with fluctuations not exceeding ±0.05.
[0042] The fluctuating current characteristic type is in the following form: and , in, is the first current characteristic value, in A / h; is the second current characteristic value, in A / h; is the proportion of measured eigenvalues, is the proportion of the first eigenvalue, is the proportion of the second eigenvalue; A / h, A / h, and the numerical fluctuation error of the two does not exceed 10%; Indicates the proportion of the number of positive or negative current characteristic values measured in the preset period to the total number of current characteristic values measured in the preset period. , .
[0043] The shutdown feature type is as follows: , in, The number of downtimes.
[0044] The slowly decreasing characteristic type is in the following form: and , in, is the third current characteristic value, in A / h; is the proportion of the third eigenvalue; A / h, the fluctuation error of this value does not exceed 10%; Indicates the proportion of the number of negative current characteristic values in the total number of current characteristic values measured in the preset period. .
[0045] The rapid reduction characteristic type is as follows: and ; The form of adding feature types is as follows: and , in, is the fourth current characteristic value, in A / h; is the proportion of the fourth eigenvalue; A / h, the fluctuation error of this value does not exceed 10%; It indicates the proportion of the number of positive current characteristic values in the total number of current characteristic values measured in the preset period. It should be noted that, based on actual conditions and experience, as well as It can be set to other values and is not specifically limited here.
[0046] Further, the process of determining the fault type of the electric submersible pump includes: Combine several different current feature types to obtain an analysis feature type group; if the analysis feature type group contains all the fluctuating current feature types, it is determined that the fault type is that the well fluid in the environment where the submersible pump is located contains gas, that is, the long-term presence of gas in the well fluid will cause pump gas lock; if the analysis feature type group contains the stable current feature type and the shutdown feature type in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is a sudden shutdown of the submersible pump; if the analysis feature type group contains the rapid decrease feature type and the shutdown feature type for more than two times in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is frequent restart of the submersible pump; if the analysis feature type group contains the stable current feature type, the slowly decrease feature type and the shutdown feature type in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is insufficient supply of well fluid in the environment where the submersible pump is located; if the analysis feature type group contains the stable current feature type, the increase feature type and the shutdown feature type in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is an overload shutdown of the submersible pump, that is, during the operation of the submersible pump, due to excessive load The current exceeds its rated value due to a large or certain abnormal conditions, thereby triggering a protection mechanism to stop the pump; if the analysis feature type group includes the fluctuating current feature type, the increasing feature type, and the shutdown feature type in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is that the well fluid in the environment where the submersible pump is located contains impurities, that is, the well fluid contains impurities and may cause solid blockage to the submersible pump; if the analysis feature type group includes the stable current feature type, the slowly decreasing feature type, the stable current feature type, and the shutdown feature type in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is the failure of the underload protection of the submersible pump, that is, the underload protection function of the submersible pump cannot work normally, and cannot cut off the power supply or sound an alarm in time when the submersible pump is in an underload state, which may cause damage to the submersible pump; if the analysis feature type group includes the stable current feature type, the slowly decreasing feature type, the fluctuating current feature type, and the shutdown feature type in sequence, it is determined that the fault type is the pump gas lock of the submersible pump, that is, a large amount of gas accumulates in the pump chamber of the submersible pump, making the pump unable to work normally.
[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, the analysis feature type is determined by combining several different current feature types obtained by calculation in chronological order from front to back, and then the analysis feature type is matched with the typical fault type determined based on previous actual conditions, so as to quickly and accurately determine the fault possibility and fault type of the submersible pump in the current detection cycle, thereby playing a role in fault warning, providing a basis for improving the refined management and intelligent level of the submersible pump, and improving the efficiency of troubleshooting the submersible pump, thereby ensuring the production efficiency of the oil well platform where the submersible pump is located.
[0048] See also Figure 3As shown, it is a logic flow chart for determining whether the calculation result of the measured current characteristic value is qualified based on the characteristic value variance in this embodiment. The process of obtaining several measured current characteristic values includes: Obtain a characteristic value variance based on several of the measured current characteristic values within a preset period; determine whether the calculation process of the measured current characteristic value is qualified based on a comparison result of the characteristic value variance with a preset characteristic value variance, or based on a comparison result of an average value of several historical characteristic value variances obtained within several historical periods with the characteristic value variance; when it is determined that the calculation result of the measured current characteristic value is unqualified, determine the cause based on a comparison result of a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value among several of the measured current characteristic values with a preset difference.
[0049] Specifically, in this embodiment, by importing the real-time current operation data in the submersible pump into the fault diagnosis model within the current preset period, a number of measured current characteristic values corresponding to a number of detection nodes within the preset period can be obtained, and then the characteristic value variance is calculated based on the number of measured current characteristic values. In this embodiment, after obtaining the current operation data within the preset period for the submersible pump, a number of measured current characteristic values corresponding to a number of detection nodes are calculated, and an average value is calculated based on the number of measured current characteristic values. The numerical fluctuation of the measured current characteristic value within this preset period should be maintained in the vicinity of the average value, and the fluctuation should be within the range of the average value. The dynamic range will not exceed the average value too much; in order to ensure that the measured current characteristic value used in the fault type determination is accurate and reasonable, the calculated measured current characteristic value can be further determined; in order to make a more accurate determination, the preset characteristic value variance E0 can be divided into a first preset characteristic value variance E1 and a second preset characteristic value variance E2, and the preset characteristic value variance standard E3=50, E1=E3-10, E2=E3+10 is set. It should be noted that E1, E2 and E3 can also be set to other values according to actual needs; the comparison process based on the characteristic value variance E with E1 and E2 is as follows: If the characteristic value variance E is less than or equal to the first preset characteristic value variance E1, it means that the magnitudes of several measured current characteristic values in the current preset period are relatively close and the values are relatively concentrated. Therefore, it can be determined that the calculation result of the measured current characteristic value is qualified. At this time, the measured current characteristic value meets the requirements for subsequent comparison and calculation with several typical current characteristic values.
[0050] If the eigenvalue variance E is greater than the first preset eigenvalue variance E1 and less than or equal to the second preset eigenvalue variance E2, it is impossible to accurately determine whether the calculation result of the measured current eigenvalue is qualified. It is necessary to obtain several historical eigenvalue variances in several historical periods before the current preset period, and then calculate the average value based on the several historical eigenvalue variances. Based on the comparison between the variance average value and the eigenvalue variance, it is re-determined whether the calculation result of the measured current eigenvalue is qualified. The several historical measured current eigenvalues in several historical periods here are confirmed data that can be used for subsequent calculations.
[0051] If the eigenvalue variance E is greater than the second preset eigenvalue variance E2, it means that the relative difference between the sizes of several measured current eigenvalues in the current preset period is large, the values are relatively dispersed, and the current values fluctuate too violently in the preset period. Therefore, it can be determined that the calculation result of the measured current eigenvalue is unqualified. At this time, it is necessary to count the maximum and minimum values of several measured current eigenvalues in the current preset period, and then calculate the difference between the two, record it as the eigenvalue amplitude difference, and compare the eigenvalue amplitude difference with the preset eigenvalue amplitude difference to determine the cause of the unqualified. It is mainly determined by analyzing the fluctuation of several measured current eigenvalues in the preset period to determine whether the current measured current eigenvalue can be used as the basis for subsequent calculations.
[0052] Furthermore, an average value is calculated based on several historical eigenvalue variances, which is recorded as the historical variance average value D. The historical variance average value D is compared with the eigenvalue variance E. The specific comparison results are as follows: If the historical variance average value D is smaller than the eigenvalue variance E, it means that the fluctuation amplitude of several measured current eigenvalues within the current preset period is larger than the fluctuation amplitude of several historical measured current eigenvalues within the historical period. Therefore, it can be determined that when the eigenvalue variance E is greater than the first preset eigenvalue variance E1 and less than or equal to the second preset eigenvalue variance E2, the calculation result of the measured current eigenvalue is unqualified.
[0053] If the historical variance average value D is greater than or equal to the eigenvalue variance E, it means that the fluctuation amplitude of several measured current eigenvalues in the current preset period is smaller than the fluctuation amplitude of several historical measured current eigenvalues in the historical period. Therefore, it can be determined that when the eigenvalue variance E is greater than the first preset eigenvalue variance E1 and less than or equal to the second preset eigenvalue variance E2, the calculation result for the measured current eigenvalue is qualified.
[0054] See also Figure 4As shown, it is a logic flow chart of determining the reason for the failure of the measured current characteristic value calculation based on the characteristic value amplitude difference and the corresponding processing method in this embodiment. The process of determining the reason based on the comparison result between the maximum value and the minimum value of several measured current characteristic values and the preset difference value includes: Calculate the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the measured current characteristic values, record it as the characteristic value amplitude difference, and record the preset difference as the preset characteristic amplitude difference; determine the reason why the calculation of the measured current characteristic value is unqualified according to the comparison result of the characteristic value amplitude difference and the preset characteristic value amplitude difference; determine the corresponding processing based on the reason, including: increasing the first sensitivity factor and the second sensitive factor Or reduce the characteristic value correction factor .
[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, a plurality of measured current characteristic values calculated within a preset period are compared to determine a maximum value and a minimum value, and then a difference is calculated based on the maximum value and the minimum value. The preset characteristic value amplitude difference is the preset difference, and the preset characteristic value amplitude difference P0 is set to 50A / h. P0 can also be set to other values as needed; the comparison process based on the characteristic value amplitude difference P and the preset characteristic value amplitude difference P0 is as follows: If the characteristic value amplitude difference P is less than or equal to the preset characteristic value amplitude difference P0, it means that the change amplitude of the measured current characteristic value within the current preset period is relatively small, and the fluctuation degree is relatively stable. At this time, it can be determined that the reason why the calculation of the measured current characteristic value is unqualified is that there are problems with the constructed current standardization formula and time standardization formula, specifically, there are problems with the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor. Therefore, the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor need to be re-corrected.
[0056] If the characteristic value amplitude difference P is greater than the preset characteristic value amplitude difference P0, it means that the change amplitude of the measured current characteristic value within the current preset period is relatively large and the fluctuation degree is relatively severe. At this time, it can be determined that the reason why the calculation of the measured current characteristic value is unqualified is that there is a problem with the constructed current characteristic value calculation formula, specifically, there is a problem with the characteristic value correction coefficient, and the characteristic value correction coefficient needs to be re-corrected.
[0057] Further, the process of increasing the first sensitivity factor and the second sensitivity factor includes: Based on the comparison result of the pump hanging depth with the preset pump hanging depth, it is determined that the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor are increased, and the increase range of the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor is proportional to the pump hanging depth.
[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, the use environment of the electric submersible pump is a shallow oil well. When the pump hanging depth is greater, the pressure of the underground oil will also increase, and the resistance of the pump to pump oil will increase. Therefore, the motor needs a larger load to provide sufficient power, which may cause an increase in the current value. Therefore, in order to more accurately standardize the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor, the greater the amplitude that needs to be adjusted; in order to more accurately determine the increase amplitude of the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor, the preset pump hanging depth H0 can be divided into a first preset pump hanging depth H1 and a second preset pump hanging depth H2, and the preset pump hanging depth H3 is set to 1200 meters, H1=H3-200, H2=H3+200; the comparison process based on the pump hanging depth H with H1 and H2 is as follows: If the pump hanging depth H is less than or equal to the first preset pump hanging depth H1, the first factor adjustment coefficient can be used to increase the first sensitive factor to 1.15 times the initial value and the second sensitive factor to 1.17 times the initial value; if the pump hanging depth H is greater than the first preset pump hanging depth H1 and less than or equal to the second preset pump hanging depth H2, the second factor adjustment coefficient can be used to increase the first sensitive factor to 1.44 times the initial value and the second sensitive factor to 1.52 times the initial value; if the pump hanging depth H is greater than the second preset pump hanging depth H2, the third factor adjustment coefficient can be used to increase the first sensitive factor to 2.25 times the initial value and the second sensitive factor to 2.33 times the initial value. Since the larger the pump hanging depth H, the greater the influence of the current and the time corresponding to the current on the fault diagnosis process during acquisition, the greater the increase ratio of the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor; the value of the increase ratio can also be set to other values, with the goal of reducing the influence of the pump hanging depth H.
[0059] Furthermore, the process of reducing the characteristic value correction coefficient includes: Based on the comparison result of the amplitude difference and the preset amplitude difference, it is determined to reduce the eigenvalue correction coefficient, and the reduction amplitude of the eigenvalue correction coefficient is proportional to the amplitude difference; wherein the amplitude difference is the difference between the eigenvalue amplitude difference and the preset eigenvalue amplitude difference.
[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment, the preset amplitude difference B0 can be divided into a first preset amplitude difference B1 and a second preset amplitude difference B2, and the preset amplitude difference standard B3=80A / h, B1=B3-15, B2=B3+15 is set. It should be noted that B1, B2 and B3 can be adjusted according to actual conditions; the comparison process based on the amplitude difference B with B1 and B2 is as follows: If the amplitude difference B is less than or equal to the first preset amplitude difference B1, the characteristic value correction coefficient can be reduced to 0.95 times the initial value; if the amplitude difference B is greater than the first preset amplitude difference B1 and less than or equal to the second preset amplitude difference B2, the characteristic value correction coefficient can be reduced to 0.86 times the initial value; if the amplitude difference B is greater than the second preset amplitude difference B2, the characteristic value correction coefficient can be reduced to 0.75 times the initial value. When the amplitude difference B is large, the characteristic value correction coefficient needs to be reduced, and the reduction ratio of the characteristic value correction coefficient is set to reduce the impact of the amplitude difference.
[0061] Further, after completing the increase adjustment of the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor, the characteristic value correction coefficient is reduced based on the comparison result between the motor temperature and the preset motor temperature, and the reduction range of the characteristic value correction coefficient is proportional to the motor temperature.
[0062] Specifically, in this embodiment, the motor temperature here is the temperature generated by the motor when the electric submersible pump is working. After the adjustment of the first sensitive factor and the second sensitive factor is completed, it is also necessary to simultaneously consider that the characteristic value correction coefficient in the current characteristic value calculation formula is affected by the electric submersible pump; the general operating temperature range of the electric submersible pump in this embodiment is 40°C-180°C, and the preset motor temperature W0 can be divided into a first preset motor temperature W1 and a second preset motor temperature W2, and the preset motor temperature standard is set to W3=150°C, W1=W3-20, W2=W3+20. When the motor temperature is within a higher range, it will interfere with the collected current, resulting in a larger fluctuation range of the current value. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the reduction of the characteristic value correction coefficient based on the comparison result; the comparison process based on the motor temperature W with W1 and W2 is as follows: If the motor temperature W is greater than 100°C and less than or equal to the first preset motor temperature W1, the characteristic value correction coefficient can be reduced to 0.98 times the initial value. When the motor temperature is less than or equal to 100°C, it will not affect the current; if the motor temperature W is greater than the first preset motor temperature W1 and less than or equal to the second preset motor temperature W2, the characteristic value correction coefficient can be reduced to 0.95 times the initial value; if the motor temperature W is greater than the second preset motor temperature W2, the characteristic value correction coefficient can be reduced to 0.92 times the initial value. The reduction rate of the characteristic value correction coefficient at this time is different from the characteristic value correction coefficient reduced according to the amplitude difference; the reduction rate of the characteristic value correction coefficient is set to reduce the impact of the motor temperature.
