Abstract

Background Art
[0002] During the process of oil exploration and development, due to the production pressure difference and unstable recovery rate of edge and bottom water reservoirs, the pressure drop around the wellbore causes the oil-water interface to deform into a cone, resulting in edge water or bottom water breakthrough, which suppresses oil production.
[0003] In response to this production problem, the traditional mechanical external segmented water control string is usually used to try to solve it. This method can delay the cone of edge and bottom water to a certain extent and extend the life of the oil well. However, after the water cone breaks through, it is impossible to further control the production profile, and it is impossible to implement the key parameter indicators such as real-time liquid volume and pressure of the production layers with large physical property differences. It is also impossible to selectively close a production layer from the ground, and it can only rely on well repair operations. Especially in the eastern sea area, there is an urgent need for intelligent segmented flow control and water control technology for 3,000 cubic meters of large liquid oil fields. This field urgently needs a composite water control method that can adjust the production profile through an external water control string and further adjust the production profile through an internal water control string, solve the production demand of 3,000 cubic meters of large liquid and the safety of the string suspension load, and can flexibly adjust the production status of different production layers from the ground.

[0040] Step 1: Divide the well section into five external compartments according to reservoir characteristics;
[0041] Step 2: Run a segmented intelligent water control outer string, which includes a top packer and four expansion packers;
[0042] Step 3: Run a segmented intelligent water control inner string with three insert seals, two electric control production distributors, and one hydraulic control sliding sleeve production distributor;
[0043] Step 4: A set of tank-mounted electric submersible pump units was installed to upgrade the overall liquid production capacity of the segmented intelligent water control pipe column to meet the large liquid volume demand of the oil field.
[0044] Implementation effect: After the start of regulation, the second and third production layers were fully opened, and the first production layer at the root end was closed. The water content of the wellhead test dropped from 89.7% to 79.7%, a 10% drop in water content, and the daily oil production increased by 93.49 cubic meters per day. The effect of water control and oil increase was significant. After a period of use, the water content was 82.9%, and the daily oil production was 140.4 cubic meters per day, with a stable effect.

[0047] Step 1: Divide the well section into two external compartments according to reservoir characteristics;

[0049] Step 3: Run the segmented intelligent water control inner string with an insert seal, two hydraulic control sleeve production distributors, and a hydraulic control sleeve for old wellbore production;
[0050] Step 4: A set of tank-mounted electric submersible pump units was installed to meet the production needs of 3,000 cubic meters of large liquid volume.
[0051] Implementation effect: Currently, only the lowest test layer of the main branch is produced, and the water content is reduced by 53% compared with the production allocation data, and the oil production is more than doubled.
[0052] Compared with the prior art, the large-liquid tank-mounted suspended segmented intelligent oil stabilization and water control real-time measurement and adjustment completion method of the present application has the following advantages: the method of the present application realizes the profile adjustment and water control of the oil reservoir through the segmented intelligent water control outer pipe string and the segmented intelligent water control inner pipe string, and can also realize the separate production and combined production of different layers, which greatly enhances the flexibility and convenience of production and reduces the cost of well repair; at the same time, the segmented intelligent water control inner pipe string in the present application is connected with an intelligent production distributor, which can realize the monitoring of downhole flow, temperature, pressure, nozzle opening and other data, and provide the most intuitive data for oil well production, thereby assisting production decision-making; in summary, the method proposed in the present application realizes the intelligent segmented flow control and water control of a large liquid volume of 3,000 cubic meters at sea, combines the external water control pipe string with the internal water control pipe string, establishes two water control flow resistance barriers, and significantly enhances the effect of stabilizing oil and controlling water.
