[0030] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0031] Example 1
[0032] This embodiment discloses a casing ring air channeling simulation test method, which uses a casing ring air channeling simulation test device for testing. Figure 1 The device has an annular cavity 11 at the upper end and an air channel 23 at the lower end, and the annular cavity 11 is connected to the air channel 23.
[0033] The method of this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0034] S1: irregularly cut cracks in the radial direction of the cement plug 100, fill the cracks with quartz sand of a certain mesh size and fix them to prepare the cement plug 100 with cracks; select a permeability similar to that of the gas-channeling reservoir, so that the core plug 200 absorbs saturated simulated formation water, and the simulated formation water is configured according to the components of the gas-channeling formation water; fill the cement plug 100 and the core plug 200 into the gas-channeling channel 23 of the cylinder 21, wherein the cement plug 100 is located above the core plug 200.
[0035] S2: Inject completion fluid into the annular cavity 11 through the injection pump 3, and the completion fluid is configured according to the components of the cementing cement slurry spacer fluid; inject fluid into the filling cavity 213 through the fluid pump 4 to pressurize it, so that the side walls of the gas channel 23 are close to the outer peripheral surfaces of the cement plunger 100 and the core plunger 200; pass high-pressure gas into the bottom of the core plunger 200 through the high-pressure gas source device 22, so that the high-pressure gas passes through the internal pores of the core plunger 200 and the cement plunger 100 in turn and enters the annular cavity 11, wherein the fluid pressure in the filling cavity 213 is higher than the gas pressure provided by the high-pressure gas source device 22.
[0036] S3: Record the time-varying patterns of the liquid level and pressure in the annular cavity 11.
[0037] Through the above method, the effect of pressure rise caused by temperature rise on annular air breakthrough after shut-in and resumption of production is simulated, and the casing annulus zone well killing management is guided based on the experimental data obtained.
[0038] Furthermore, the method may further include step S4: when the pressure in the annular cavity 11 rises to a certain value, the pressure relief valve is opened to relieve the pressure in the annular cavity 11, and the change pattern of the liquid level and pressure in the annular cavity 11 over time is recorded, thereby simulating the effect of on-site pressure relief on annular air leakage.
[0039] Furthermore, the method may further include step S5: closing the pressure relief valve after the pressure relief is completed, repeating step S4, repeatedly releasing the pressure in the annular cavity 11, and recording the time variation pattern of the liquid level and pressure in the annular cavity 11, thereby simulating and analyzing the effect of repeatedly opening and closing the well or releasing the pressure on the annular air leakage.
[0040] Example 2
[0041] This embodiment conducts experiments based on the method of embodiment 1 in combination with actual mining conditions, obtains data and results, and proposes corresponding treatment plans.
[0042] The annular pressure of the casing of Well M is 2.2MPa. According to the analysis of the annular gas sample, the annular pressure is caused by the gas pipe leaking out of the production layer. The leaking gas contains 26% CO2 and no H2S, which poses a certain risk of casing corrosion. At present, the pressure of the gas production layer is 7.5MPa, and the average permeability is 48.6md. In the on-site pressure relief test, the annular pressure can be released to zero, and the pressure returns to 2.2MPa and stabilizes 26 hours after the pressure relief is stopped. In order to analyze the impact of the pressure relief operation on the annular gas leakage, a simulation test and analysis of the casing annular gas leakage was carried out.
[0043] 1. Drill a cement plug with a diameter of 2.5 cm and a length of 10 cm, cut it open longitudinally, fill the cracks with a layer of 230-200 mesh quartz sand, and fix the cement plug.
[0044] 2. According to the permeability of the gas channeling layer and the core inventory, a core with a diameter of 2.5 cm, a length of 8.3 cm, and a permeability of 47.5 md was selected for simulation experiments. Simulated formation water was configured according to the ion composition of the formation water in the gas channeling layer, and the core plunger was saturated with simulated formation water.
[0045] 3. Install the processed cement plunger and core plunger into the rubber cylinder of the test device in sequence, assemble the test device, and use the injection pump to add a confining pressure of 2MPa to the filling cavity.
[0046] 4. The liquid in the gas breakthrough annulus is cementing slurry isolation fluid. The simulated test fluid is prepared according to the isolation fluid formula, and the simulated test fluid is pumped into the space between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder by an injection pump until the annulus is filled.
[0047] 5. The injection pump increases the surrounding pressure in the filling chamber to 4.2MPa, and injects gas into the intermediate container through the high-pressure gas source device to the experimental pressure of 2.2MPa.
[0048] 6. Slowly open the valve between the plug and the intermediate container and start timing, observe and record the changes in the pressure and liquid level of the annular cavity over time; release the annular cavity pressure three times at 30min, 60min and 90min, each time for 0.5min, and record the changes in pressure and liquid level before and after the pressure release.
[0049] 7. After 120 minutes, turn off the high-pressure gas source, release the pressure and clean the experimental equipment.
[0050] The experimental data are sorted as shown in the following table, and the pressure and liquid level of the annular cavity are plotted as a function of time. Figure 2 shown.
[0051]
[0052] It can be seen from the experimental results that with the increase in the number of annular pressure releases, the leakage rate gradually increases. Therefore, the recommendations for the management of annular pressure in Well M are: maintain production, strengthen annular pressure monitoring, avoid annular pressure release as much as possible during production, and regularly add alkaline anti-corrosion fluid to control annular CO2 corrosion.

[0055] The casing annulus air channeling simulation test device of this embodiment injects completion fluid into the annular cavity 11 inside the casing assembly 1 through the injection pump 3 to simulate the annular state in the well. The gas channeling channel 23 formed by the cylinder 21 is used to fill the cement plunger 100 and the core plunger 200, wherein the cement plunger 100 is located at the upper end of the gas channeling channel 23, and the core plunger 200 is located below the cement plunger 100. The high-pressure gas source device 22 is used to inject high-pressure gas below the core plunger 200, so that the high-pressure gas penetrates into the annular cavity 11 through the cracks of the core plunger 200 and the cement plunger 100, simulating the annular air channeling situation.
[0056] refer to Figure 1The cylinder 21 includes a confining pressure cylinder 211 and a rubber cylinder 212. The confining pressure cylinder 211 is sleeved on the outside of the rubber cylinder 212, and a closed filling chamber 213 is formed between the confining pressure cylinder 211 and the rubber cylinder 212. High-pressure fluid is injected into the filling chamber 213 by the fluid pump 4, so that the rubber cylinder 212 can be attached to the outer peripheral surface of the core plunger 200 and the cement plunger 100. In this way, when high-pressure gas is injected into the bottom of the core plunger 200 by the high-pressure gas source device 22, it can prevent the gas from escaping from the gas channeling channel 23 and the circumferential gap between the core plunger 200 and the cement plunger 100, thereby improving the accuracy of the simulation test.
[0057] Among them, the first pressure gauge 5, the second pressure gauge 6 and the third pressure gauge 7 are used to monitor the pressure of the annular cavity 11, the pressure of the high-pressure gas and the pressure of the filling cavity 213 respectively. During the test, the pressure of the filling cavity 213 should be greater than the pressure of the high-pressure gas, that is, the value of the third pressure gauge 7 is greater than the value of the second pressure gauge 6, so as to ensure that the rubber cylinder 212 is tightly attached to the outer peripheral surface of the cement plunger 100 and the core plunger 200. The pressure relief valve 8 is arranged at the upper end of the casing assembly 1, connected to the upper end of the annular cavity 11, and the pressure of the annular cavity 11 can be relieved by opening and closing the pressure relief valve 8.
[0058] refer to Figure 1 The gas channeling simulation component 2 also includes a plug 24, an end cover 25 and a clamping member 26.

The plug 24 can be pressed against the bottom of the core plunger 200 by the threaded push rod being threadedly connected to the bottom of the end cover 25. High-pressure gas is injected from one end of the gas injection channel 251 of the core plunger 200 through the high-pressure gas source device 22 . The high-pressure gas enters the core plunger 200 through the gas injection channel 251 , and then escapes from the cracks of the cement plunger 100 and enters the annular cavity 11 .

The high-pressure gas source device 22 can pass the high-pressure gas through the gas injection channel 251 inside the plug 24 into the core plunger 200. Since the plug 24 can block the lower entrance of the gas channel 23, high-pressure gas will enter the core plunger 200, reducing gas leakage.
