Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of geophysical logging, and in particular, to a method and system for detecting downhole noise. Background Art
[0002] The exploration and development of oil and gas have entered a new stage. The difficulty of discovering oil and gas resources has increased, and the quality of newly discovered oil and gas reserves is low. The developed oilfields are in the "double high" stage of high water cut and high recovery rate, with poor economic efficiency. The exploration and development face key technical bottlenecks. The difficulty of oil and gas exploration and development has increased, and the exploration area has extended to deep / ultra-deep and complex areas. The newly added oil and gas reserves are mainly unconventional oil and gas represented by tight low-permeability, heavy oil, and special lithology reservoirs. The breakthrough of technologies such as the exploration of ultra-deep / complex and hidden oil and gas reservoirs, the enhanced production of old oilfields (such as displacement and fracturing), and the exploitation of unconventional oil and gas has become the key to the stable production and increased reserves, as well as the improvement of the quality and efficiency of oil and gas reservoirs in China.
[0003] With the extension of oil and gas exploration to deep / ultra-deep and complex areas, the refined description of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs has become the key to formulating the development plan of oil and gas reservoirs and enhancing production in the later stage. At present, conventional logging mainly uses deep and shallow laterolog, micro-resistivity, acoustic wave, compensated neutron, density, natural gamma ray, natural potential, etc. Among them, acoustic logging is an instrument designed based on the acoustic principle. By measuring the propagation speed and amplitude of acoustic waves in the formation, it is used to record the rock acoustic properties of the downhole formation profile and evaluate the properties of the wellbore rock. It is one of the important logging methods for geophysical property logging.
[0004] At present, acoustic logging mainly connects the acoustic logging instrument through a cable and lowers it to the designated position in the wellbore through a drum skid, and measures the wellbore during the upward movement of the instrument. However, with the extension of oil and gas exploration to deep / ultra-deep and complex areas, the downhole temperature and pressure are constantly rising, and the existing acoustic logging instruments are difficult to meet the higher wellbore temperature requirements, and the measurement reliability and sensitivity need to be further improved.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0028] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily need to be used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order different from those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "comprising" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product or device including a series of steps or units does not necessarily need to be limited to those clearly listed steps or units, but may include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.
[0029] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a method for detecting downhole noise is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that here.
[0030] The method embodiment provided in the first embodiment of the present application can control the system through a terminal device to implement the method for detecting downhole noise. Figure 1 It shows a block diagram of the structure of a downhole noise detection system for implementing the method for detecting downhole noise. As Figure 1As shown in the figure, the downhole noise detection system mainly includes a terminal device 101, a demodulation system 102, a transmission system 103, and a sensing system 104. The downhole noise detection method implemented by the downhole noise detection system shown above specifically includes the following steps: Figure 1 The downhole noise detection method implemented by the downhole noise detection system shown above specifically includes the following steps:
[0031] S1. Input the target pulsed light into a weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through a circulator (such as the circulator 110 shown in Figure 1 ). The weak grating optical fiber is used to detect the noise signal in the downhole formation environment, and the weak grating optical fiber includes a grating array with low reflectivity etched at equal intervals.
[0032] S2. Obtain the first reflected light signal transmitted by the weak grating optical fiber through a coupler (such as the coupler 111 shown in Figure 1 ), and obtain the second reflected light signal output by the circulator according to the target pulsed light.
[0033] S3. Demodulate the interference result of the first reflected light signal and the second reflected light signal through a signal processing module (such as the signal processing module 114 shown in Figure 1 ) to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result.
[0034] S4. Determine the noise signal in the downhole formation environment according to the phase information.
[0035] It can be understood that the target pulsed light in S1 above is the pulsed light output by an erbium-doped optical amplifier (such as the erbium-doped optical amplifier 109 shown in Figure 1 ). The formation process of the target pulsed light is as follows: The terminal device 101 (such as the terminal device 101 shown in Figure 1 ) controls the signal generator 105 in the demodulation system, and then controls the narrow linewidth laser 106 (which can also be other devices for emitting continuous light such as lasers) to emit laser light. The laser light emitted by the narrow linewidth laser 106 is converted by controlling the semiconductor optical amplifier 108 through the control system 107 to convert the laser light into pulsed light. The pulsed light output by the semiconductor optical amplifier 108 is amplified by the erbium-doped optical amplifier 109 to obtain the target pulsed light in S1 above.
[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , the interference result obtained after the coupler interferes the first reflected light signal and the second reflected light signal is detected by the photodetector 112. At the same time, the photodetector 112 converts the detected optical signal into an electrical signal, and the A / D collector 113 collects the electrical signal output by the photodetector 112 and converts the electrical signal into a digital signal to facilitate the signal processing module 114 to demodulate and analyze the digital signal.
[0037] At the same time, the transmission system 103 can be an optical fiber with a length that meets the preset length, so as to transmit the target pulse light to the sensor system 104. The cylindrical rod included in the sensor system 104 is the weak grating optical fiber obtained by etching the grating optical fiber array with equal spacing and reflectivity. The sounder in the sensor system 104 transmits the sound parameters to the control system 116 through the signal generator 115, so that the control system 116 controls the sounder in the sensor system 104 to emit a sound signal of a preset frequency, and uses this sound signal to imitate the downhole noise, so as to detect the experimental results.
[0038] Through Figure 1 The downhole noise detection system shown implements the downhole noise detection method mentioned above, by inputting the target pulse light signal into a weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through a circulator, wherein the weak grating optical fiber is used to detect the noise signal in the downhole formation environment, and the weak grating optical fiber includes a low-reflectivity grating array etched at equal intervals; obtaining a first reflected light signal transmitted according to the weak grating optical fiber, and obtaining a second reflected light signal output by the circulator according to the target pulse light; demodulating the interference result of the first reflected light signal and the second reflected light signal to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result; determining the noise signal in the downhole formation environment according to the phase information, thereby achieving the detection of long-distance noise, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the detection reliability of downhole noise, and further solving the technical problems of low reliability and sensitivity of existing downhole noise detection methods.
[0039] If Figure 1 The two main systems included in the downhole noise detection system shown in are as follows Figure 1 The demodulation system 102 and the sensor system 104 shown in the figure, in the process of implementing the above-mentioned downhole noise detection method, the above-mentioned demodulation system 102 and the sensor system 104 respectively include components and perform specific operations as follows:
[0040] The sensing system 104 includes a weak grating optical fiber located in a well formation environment, wherein the weak grating optical fiber is used to detect noise signals in the downhole formation environment, and the weak grating optical fiber includes a low-reflectivity grating array etched with equal spacing;
[0041] The demodulation system 102 is used to input the target pulsed optical signal into the weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through a circulator. The weak grating optical fiber is used to detect the noise signal in the downhole formation environment, and the weak grating optical fiber includes a grating array with low reflectivity etched at equal intervals; obtain the first reflected optical signal transmitted by the weak grating optical fiber, and obtain the second reflected optical signal output by the circulator according to the target pulsed optical signal; demodulate the interference result of the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result; determine the noise signal in the downhole formation environment according to the phase information.
[0042] The above detection method of downhole noise is realized by the above detection system of downhole noise. By etching a weak optical fiber with a lower reflectivity on the optical fiber, the system can significantly increase the number of weak grating arrays, improve the sensing multiplexing ability of the system, meet the requirements of long-distance detection in the downhole, and realize downhole acoustic wave detection.
[0043] The present invention will be described below in conjunction with the preferred implementation steps. Figure 2 It is a flowchart of the detection method of downhole noise provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, the method includes the following steps:
[0044] S202, input the target pulsed optical signal into the weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through a circulator. The weak grating optical fiber is used to detect the noise signal in the downhole formation environment, and the weak grating optical fiber includes a grating array with low reflectivity etched at equal intervals;
[0045] S204, obtain the first reflected optical signal transmitted by the weak grating optical fiber, and obtain the second reflected optical signal output by the circulator according to the target pulsed optical signal;
[0046] S206, demodulate the interference result of the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result;
[0047] S208, determine the noise signal in the downhole formation environment according to the phase information.
[0048] It should be noted that the pulsed optical signal in S202 is an optical signal with obvious pulse characteristics in time. The characteristics of the pulsed optical signal (such as the above target pulsed optical signal) are that it has a short pulse width and a high peak, so as to judge the specific time period when the phase information of the light changes according to the time difference between the input and output of each beam of pulsed optical signal; the above circulator can be understood as, but not limited to: two transmission paths set for the target pulsed optical signal, one path is used to transmit the pulsed optical signal to the coupler as Figure 1 shown, and the other path is used to transmit the pulsed optical signal to as Figure 1The sensing system 104 shown above; the weak grating optical fiber is provided with a grating array with low reflectivity etched at equal intervals. The weak grating optical fiber can be wound (multiple loops are formed by winding, and the shape of the wound weak grating optical fiber is, for example, a spring shape), and the weak grating optical fiber can also be wound on a fixed substrate to achieve the purpose of fixing the weak grating optical fiber. The noise signal is downhole noise, which includes various noises such as leakage, perforation, fracturing, foreign objects, and deformation existing downhole during downhole operations and non-operations. The downhole formation environment includes various types, such as: groundwater (the water body formed after surface water seeps into the ground), petroleum, well water (the water body extracted from underground rocks through drilling or opening a wellhead), oil-water mixture, gas, etc.
[0049] The second reflected optical signal in S204 is the signal that transmits the target pulsed optical signal to the coupler as shown in Figure 1 in the two transmission paths set by the circulator for the target pulsed optical signal. The second reflected optical signal does not enter the sensing system as shown in Figure 1 and the phase will not change; the first reflected optical signal is the backward Rayleigh scattered optical signal formed by the target pulsed optical signal in the weak grating optical fiber array under the action of downhole noise after transmitting the target pulsed optical signal to the sensing system 104 as shown in Figure 1 in the two transmission paths.
[0050] The interference result in S206 is the result obtained after the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal interfere. The interference is a phenomenon in which two or more waves meet in space and superimpose or cancel each other to form a new waveform. The interference result can be obtained by coupling the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal in the coupler 111 as shown in Figure 1 and then interfering the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal; the demodulation can be understood, but not limited to, determining the phase information corresponding to the interference result according to the interference result. The method of determining the phase information can be: observing the waveform of the interference result to determine the phase information of the interference result, using an oscilloscope to determine the phase information of the interference result, using a spectrum analyzer to determine the phase information of the interference result, etc. It can be understood that for complex signals, the above-mentioned multiple methods can be combined to determine the phase information of the complex signal.
[0051] The step of determining the noise signal in the downhole formation environment according to the phase information in S208 can be, but not limited to: determining the reference phase information of the second reflected optical signal, determining the signal phase difference according to the reference phase information and the phase information in S206, and then determining the downhole noise according to the signal phase difference.
[0052] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiments of the present application inputs a target pulsed optical signal into a weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through a circulator. Among them, the weak grating optical fiber is used to detect the noise signal in the downhole formation environment, and the weak grating optical fiber includes a grating array with low reflectivity etched at equal intervals; obtain the first reflected optical signal transmitted by the weak grating optical fiber, and obtain the second reflected optical signal output by the circulator according to the target pulsed light; demodulate the interference result of the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result; determine the noise signal in the downhole formation environment according to the phase information, achieving the detection of long-distance noise, thereby realizing the technical effect of improving the detection reliability of downhole noise, and further solving the technical problem of low reliability and sensitivity of the existing downhole noise detection methods.
[0053] As an alternative solution, before inputting the target pulsed light into the weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through the circulator in response to triggering the target pulsed light, it further includes:
[0054] S1, winding the weak grating optical fiber into an optical fiber loop, or winding the weak grating optical fiber around a cylindrical substrate to obtain an optical fiber loop, where a sensing receiving section is formed in the optical fiber loop, and the sensing receiving section includes a plurality of weak gratings;
[0055] S2, placing the optical fiber loop in the downhole formation environment.
[0056] It should be noted that the cylindrical substrate in the above S1 can be a substrate with large acoustic wave attenuation, which can avoid using the square groove sound insulation structure in traditional electrical method acoustic logging instruments, greatly simplify the system composition, and improve reliability. The operation in the above S1 can be understood but not limited to determining whether a substrate needs to be used according to the actual situation of the well to be measured. In the case where a substrate does not need to be used, after etching a grating array with low reflectivity at equal intervals on the weak grating optical fiber, the weak grating optical fiber is directly wound into an equal-spacing optical fiber loop, and the specific distance of the equal spacing can be set according to the actual needs during the logging process. In the case where a substrate needs to be used, a target substrate is determined from multiple substrates. After etching a grating array with low reflectivity at equal intervals on the weak grating optical fiber, the weak grating optical fiber is wound around the substrate at equal intervals to obtain an optical fiber loop integrated with the substrate. When winding the weak grating optical fiber on the substrate, the distance between each turn of the weak grating optical fiber also needs to be set according to the actual needs during the logging process.
[0057] The winding spacing of the weak grating optical fiber can be adjusted according to actual applications to meet point-type, quasi-distributed, and distributed layouts. The winding substrate of the weak grating optical fiber can be selected from materials with lower sound propagation velocity, thereby avoiding using the square groove sound insulation structure in traditional electrical method acoustic logging instruments, and greatly simplifying the system composition.
[0058] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiment of the present application forms an optical fiber loop by winding a weak grating optical fiber around a cylindrical substrate, or winding the weak grating optical fiber into an optical fiber loop. A sensing and receiving section is formed in the optical fiber loop, and the sensing and receiving section includes a plurality of weak gratings. The optical fiber loop is placed in a downhole liquid environment. By using the weak grating optical fiber to replace the traditional ordinary optical fiber, the backscattered Rayleigh optical signal is enhanced. By winding the weak grating optical fiber into an optical fiber loop or winding it on the surface of a cylindrical substrate, the signal-to-noise ratio of the detected signal (downhole noise) is significantly improved. The winding radius of the optical fiber and the selection of the cylindrical substrate improve the sensitivity enhancement effect of the detected acoustic wave signal. The weak grating optical fiber is arranged in various ways such as point type, array type, and distributed type, realizing point type, quasi-distributed, and distributed detection of weak acoustic wave information in key areas and the entire wellbore downhole.
[0059] As an optional solution, forming the optical fiber loop by winding the weak grating optical fiber around a cylindrical substrate includes: winding the weak grating optical fiber around a hollow cylindrical substrate to obtain an optical fiber loop.
[0060] It should be noted that the winding substrate of the weak grating optical fiber can be solid or hollow, but preferably the above-mentioned hollow cylindrical substrate.
[0061] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiment of the present application winds the weak grating optical fiber around a hollow cylindrical substrate to obtain an optical fiber loop, improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the detected signal.
[0062] As an optional solution, demodulating the interference result of the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result includes: obtaining the phase information corresponding to the interference result through a demodulation photodetector, where the first reflected optical signal is used to indicate the backscattered Rayleigh optical signal, and the weak grating optical fiber is used to generate the backscattered Rayleigh optical signal according to the target pulsed light.
[0063] It should be noted that the operation of obtaining the phase information corresponding to the interference result through the demodulation photodetector can be, but is not limited to, understood as detecting the interference result (a signal of a new waveform) obtained after the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal interfere through the optical detector 112 (which can also be a photodetector) as shown in Figure 1 After the interference result is converted into an electrical signal by the optical detector 112, the electrical signal is transmitted to the A / D collector 113. The A / D collector 113 converts the electrical signal into a digital signal and transmits the digital signal to the signal processing module 114. The signal processing module determines the phase information corresponding to the digital signal by demodulating the digital signal.
[0064] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiments of the present application obtains the phase information corresponding to the interference result by demodulating a photodetector. Among them, the first reflected light signal is used to indicate the backward Rayleigh scattered light, and the weak grating optical fiber is used to generate the backward Rayleigh scattered light according to the target pulsed light. The position and noise intensity of the downhole noise are determined according to the time of the light intensity change and the phase information of the new signal after the light intensity change, so as to achieve long-distance detection. By means of the light intensity change, the downhole noise signal at a long distance can also be detected, and the signal will not be significantly attenuated, improving the accuracy of long-distance downhole detection.
[0065] As an optional solution, before the target pulsed light is input into the weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through the circulator in response to the triggering of the target pulsed light, it further includes:
[0066] S1, trigger a narrow linewidth laser, where the narrow linewidth laser is used to emit an optical signal;
[0067] S2, modulate the emitted optical signal according to a semiconductor optical amplifier to obtain a reference pulsed optical signal;
[0068] S3, process the reference pulsed optical signal according to an erbium-doped laser to obtain a target pulsed optical signal.
[0069] It should be noted that the above erbium-doped laser is used to perform signal amplification processing on the reference pulsed optical signal to obtain a target pulsed optical signal.
[0070] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiments of the present application, before the target pulsed light is input into the weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through the circulator in response to the triggering of the target pulsed light, triggers a narrow linewidth laser, where the narrow linewidth laser is used to generate an optical signal; modulates the emitted optical signal according to a semiconductor optical amplifier to obtain a reference pulsed optical signal, and modulates the continuous laser signal into reference pulsed optical signals corresponding to multiple time differences respectively; processes the reference pulsed optical signal according to an erbium-doped laser to obtain a target pulsed optical signal, realizing the amplification processing of the pulsed optical signal, avoiding the small change in the backward Rayleigh scattered optical signal reflected due to the small signal intensity, which is not convenient for demodulating the interference result between the backward Rayleigh scattered optical signal (the above first reference optical signal) and the second reference optical signal, and improving the reliability of the downhole noise detection method.
[0071] As an optional solution, before the target pulsed light is input into the weak grating optical fiber located in the downhole formation environment through the circulator, it further includes:
[0072] S1, obtain the pulsed light parameter and the sampling rate parameter;

[0087] It should be noted that the operations in the above S302 to S304 can be understood as, but not limited to: arranging weak grating optical fibers, winding the weak grating optical fibers on the surface of the hollow cylindrical substrate, and then passing through the optical fiber transmission section (such as Figure 1 The transmission system 103 shown in the figure, the optical fiber used in the transmission section can be a common optical fiber or a weak grating optical fiber) to connect the weak grating optical fiber in the downhole formation environment with the circulator.
[0088] S306, turn on the demodulation system, set parameters, and generate enhanced backscattered Rayleigh light in the weak grating fiber;
[0089] S308, after the backscattered Rayleigh light passes through interference, the signal detected by the photoelectric detector enters the signal processing module;
[0090] S310, the signal processing module demodulates the sound wave signal.
[0091] It should be noted that the steps from S306 to S310 above can be understood as, but not limited to: opening the Figure 1 The demodulation system 102 (also called demodulation control system) shown in sets the pulse light parameters and sampling parameters. The laser generated by the narrow line width laser is modulated by the pulse modulator. The modulated pulse light enters the weak grating optical fiber through the circulator. Under the action of the downhole noise, it is reflected by the weak grating to generate enhanced back Rayleigh scattered light. The Rayleigh scattered light returns to through the circulator. Figure 1 The coupler 111 shown, after the Rayleigh scattered light and the second reflected light signal are coupled and interfered in the coupler 111, the light signal intensity changes, and an interference result is obtained. The light detector 112 converts the detected interference result into an electrical signal and transmits it to the A / D collector 113.

It can be seen from the (a) figure to the (b) figure of
[0093] that even for long-distance detection, the above downhole noise detection method can still accurately detect downhole noise. Figure 1 Through the above embodiments of the present application, by etching an array of weak gratings with a specific reflectivity in an ordinary optical fiber, the intensity of the backward Rayleigh scattered light is increased, and the intensity of the optical signal change caused by the change in the fiber length due to downhole noise vibration is enhanced, significantly improving the sensitivity of the system to detect downhole acoustic wave signals. The downhole noise detection method implemented through the downhole noise detection system as shown in

[0095] As an optional solution, before demodulating the interference result of the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal to obtain the phase information corresponding to the interference result, it further includes: obtaining the first reflected optical signal and the second reflected optical signal transmitted through the reference optical fiber. Figure 1 It should be noted that the above reference optical fiber includes a first reference optical fiber and a second reference optical fiber. The first reference optical fiber is used to input the above target pulsed optical signal into the coupler 111 through the circulator 110 as shown in Figure 1 and determine the target pulsed optical signal input to the coupler 111 through this path as the reference optical signal (i.e., the above second reflected optical signal). The second reference optical fiber is the optical fiber on the transmission system 103 as shown in Figure 1 The second reference optical fiber is used to transmit the backward Rayleigh scattered light output by the sensing system to the coupler 111 as shown in Figure 1 After the second reflected optical signal output by the first reference optical fiber and the first reflected optical signal output by the second reference optical fiber are coupled in the coupler 111, interference occurs between the first reference optical signal and the second reference optical signal, thereby generating a change in optical intensity. Then, the interference result after the interference of the first reference optical signal and the second reference optical signal is detected by the optical detector as shown in
[0096] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiments of the present application obtains a first reflected light signal and a second reflected light signal transmitted through a reference optical fiber, thereby retaining the second reflected light signal unaffected by downhole noise. At the same time, after obtaining the backward Rayleigh scattered light (the above-mentioned first reflected light signal) generated under the influence of downhole noise, the backward Rayleigh scattered light signal and the above-mentioned second reflected light signal are coupled and interfered through a coupler to obtain an interference result, and the interference result is demodulated to accurately determine the phase information corresponding to the interference result, and then the position and intensity of the downhole noise are determined, improving the accuracy of the downhole noise detection method.

[0103] The downhole noise detection method provided by the embodiments of the present application obtains the phase information corresponding to the interference result through a demodulation photodetector; obtains the first reflected light signal and demodulates the first reflected light signal to obtain the reference phase information of the first reflected light signal; determines the signal phase difference according to the phase information and the reference phase information; determines the noise signal according to the signal phase difference, thereby converting the downhole noise into a change in optical phase, thereby determining the phase noise of the downhole noise, and then accurately determining the position and signal intensity of the downhole noise according to the phase noise, which not only ensures the measurement accuracy of the downhole noise, but also does not require the use of complex measuring instruments, simplifies the downhole noise detection system, and saves the cost of complex measuring instruments.
