Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a downhole tubular string, in particular to a carbon dioxide layer-by-layer up-flowing and layer-by-layer storage tubular string. The present invention also relates to a carbon dioxide layer-by-layer gas injection and plugging method, belonging to the technical field of carbon dioxide storage. Background Art
[0002] Carbon dioxide storage is the most effective way to cope with "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality" and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. At present, China usually adopts a combination of oil recovery and storage to improve crude oil recovery while also achieving carbon dioxide storage. This storage method is mainly oil recovery, and the carbon dioxide storage volume is relatively small. In order to speed up the progress of carbon storage, carbon dioxide needs to be stored in saline layers. However, there is currently no mature carbon dioxide layer-by-layer storage string in China. The gas injection string used is affected by carbon dioxide sealing, temperature changes, high pressure, corrosion, etc., and the effective period of the string is generally short. The injection pressure of storage is high, the cycle is long, and the requirements for the string are high. Conventional gas injection strings cannot meet the needs of storage strings, and cannot achieve layer-by-layer storage. Therefore, it is necessary to design a string solution suitable for carbon dioxide storage.
[0003] Chinese invention patent publication number CN107178347B discloses a long-lasting CO2 injection string and operation method. The string comprises an upper string and a lower string. The upper string comprises a tubing sleeved within a casing, which is equipped with a circulating flushing sleeve, a hydraulic anchor, a looper, and a sealing cannula, in descending order. The lower string comprises a sealing sleeve and a packer, which are sequentially mounted on the tubing. A seating ball seat and a two-stage check valve are located at the bottom of the lower string. The lower string is secured to the inner wall of the casing via the packer's anchor shoe. The circulating flushing sleeve closes the lower string during water injection and opens it during backwashing. This technical solution addresses the low reliability and high failure rate of the packer's gas seal. It employs a permanent packer to make the seal more reliable. A tie-back cannula is added above the Y443 packer to eliminate the effects of string creep on the packer. However, it does not address the poor sealing effect of the packer's rubber sleeve after long-term use. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Furthermore, the outer cone of the lower end of the ash injection pipe is inserted into the bell mouth at the upper end of the sheath ring of the annular ash injection valve and matches each other.
[0017] Furthermore, after the sheath ring falls into place, the distance between the upper end of its bell mouth and the mortar injection opening of the inner pipe is equal to the distance between the outer cone end of the mortar injection pipe and the mortar injection opening of the pipe.
[0018] Furthermore, after the ash injection cannula is inserted into the sheath ring of the annular ash injection valve, the ash injection opening of the inner tube and the ash injection opening of the cannula are connected in a one-to-one correspondence.

The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the annulus injection valve 3 used in the present invention comprises an upper injection joint 3a, an outer injection sleeve 3b, an inner injection tube 3c, a spring 3d, an annular piston 3e, a sheath ring 3f, and shear pins 3g. The upper end of the inner injection tube 3c is threadedly connected to the internal thread of the lower end of the upper injection joint 3a. The lower circumference of the inner injection tube 3c is provided with an inner tube injection port 3c1, and the lower end of the inner injection tube 3c is provided with a reduced diameter bottom inner step 3c2.
[0032] A spring 3d and annular piston 3e are mounted around the outer periphery of the mortar injection inner tube 3c and within the inner cavity of the mortar injection outer sleeve 3b. The top of the spring 3d rests against the lower end of the mortar injection upper connector 3a, while the top of the annular piston 3e rests against the lower end of the spring 3d. The lower end of the annular piston 3e rests against the lower outer step of the mortar injection inner tube 3c. A sheath ring 3f is secured to the lower end of the mortar injection inner tube 3c via shear pins 3g, sealing the inner tube mortar injection port 3c1. Sheath seals are installed at the upper and lower ends of the inner tube mortar injection port 3c1 to prevent mortar leakage. The lower end of the mortar injection outer sleeve 3b is provided with a sheath mortar injection port 3b1, located below the bottom of the annular piston 3e.
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the lower end of the cement injection cannula 8 used in the present invention is provided with a cannula outer cone 8a. Multiple cannula injection ports 8c are symmetrically arranged around the lower circumference of the cannula 8, communicating with the cannula's central hole. Two cannula sealing rings 8b are respectively embedded on the upper and lower sides of the cannula injection ports 8c. The cannula outer cone 8a of the cement injection cannula 8 is inserted into the upper bell mouth of the sheath ring 3f of the annulus cement injection valve 3. Pressure is applied to shear the shear pins 3g, causing the bottom of the sheath ring 3f to rest on the inner step 3c2 at the bottom of the cement injection inner tube 3c. The cannula injection ports 8c of the cement injection cannula 8 correspond to the inner tube injection ports 3c1 of the annulus cement injection valve 3, completing the cannula cement injection string.
[0034] The set-and-release string in the present invention comprises, from top to bottom, an upper setting tubing 1, a release joint 2, an annulus ash injection valve 3, a hermetic packer 4, a one-way gas injection valve 5, and a tail pipe 6. The lower end of the tail pipe 6 is equipped with a threaded plug 6a. The annulus ash injection valve 3 and the hermetic packer 4 are located between the upper and lower gas injection zones. The primary location for ash injection is the oil-casing annulus between the hermetic packer 4 and the annulus ash injection valve 3. By injecting ash into the annulus above the hermetic packer 4, the rubber sleeve of the hermetic packer 4 is protected, thereby extending its service life.
[0035] The annulus ash injection valve 3 and the airtight packer 4 are combined to implement ash injection into the annulus above the airtight packer 4, so as to protect the airtight packer 4 and extend its service life. By using the hand-free string + the intubation gas injection string, the upper layer can be buried after the single layer of gas injection, realizing layer-by-layer burial.
[0036] The carbon dioxide layer-by-layer upward return and layer-by-layer storage string can realize the layer-by-layer upward return and gas storage. Its main operation procedures include setting and releasing the seal, inserting the tube to inject ash into the annulus, and inserting the tube to inject gas. When the gas injection and storage of one layer is completed, the inserting tube gas injection string is used to squeeze the ash and seal the layer, and then the upward return operation is carried out to realize the continued gas injection in the upper layer.
[0037] The carbon dioxide layer-by-layer gas injection and plugging method of the present invention comprises the following steps in sequence: S1, lower the sealing and releasing pipe string: Figure 3 As shown, a setting and releasing string is run into the designed isolation point. The string structure from bottom to top comprises a wire plug 6a, a tail pipe 6, a one-way gas injection valve 5, a hermetic seal packer 4, an annular ash injection valve 3, a releasing joint 2, and an upper end setting oil pipe 1. The annular ash injection valve 3 and the hermetic seal packer 4 are located between the upper and lower gas injection layers. The hermetic seal packer 4 is pressurized and anchored for setting according to the designed setting pressure.
[0038] S2, the upper pipe string is lost: Figure 4As shown, the matching injection valve ball is first inserted to open the one-way injection valve 5. Then, the matching release valve ball is inserted and pressure is applied to release the release joint 2, thereby releasing the upper end sealing tubing 1 and the upper tubing string. The release valve ball follows the tubing string out of the well. Alternatively, the injection valve ball and the release valve ball can be made of plastic balls with a certain degree of elasticity. After the operation is completed, they are squeezed out by applying pressure and fall into the tail pipe 6.
[0039] S3, insert the annulus ash injection string (hereinafter referred to as the ash injection string): Figure 5 As shown in the figure, according to the design, the annular ash injection string (hereinafter referred to as the ash injection string) is composed of the ash injection pipe 8, the variable buckle joint and the upper end ash injection oil pipe 7. The outer cone 8a of the ash injection pipe 8 is inserted into the upper end bell mouth of the sheath ring 3f of the annular ash injection valve 3, and pressure is applied to cut the shear nail 3g. Figure 6 As shown, the bottom of the sheath ring 3f falls on the inner step 3c2 at the bottom of the ash injection inner tube 3c, the ash injection port 8c of the ash injection cannula 8 corresponds to the inner tube ash injection port 3c1 of the annulus ash injection valve 3, and the ash injection cannula column is in place; the upper and lower ash injection rings 8b of the ash injection cannula 8c are sealed with the inner wall of the ash injection inner tube 3c to prevent ash leakage from the upper and lower ends of the ash injection cannula 8c and the inner tube ash injection port 3c1.
[0040] S4, reverse circulation cleaning: the cleaning fluid is injected into the annulus of the oil casing. The cleaning fluid enters the inner cavity of the ash injection jacket 3b from the ash injection port 3b1 of the outer jacket of the annular ash injection valve 3, pushing the annular piston 3e to overcome the resistance of the spring 3d and move upward, exposing the ash injection port 3c1 of the inner tube. The cleaning fluid enters the inner cavity of the ash injection cannula 8 through the ash injection port 3c1 and the cannula ash injection port 8c, and then ascends to the wellhead, realizing reverse circulation and cleaning the ash injection channel.
[0041] S5, reverse circulation ash injection: Figure 7 As shown, slurry is injected into the annulus between the airtight packer 4 and the annulus injection valve 3. The slurry reaches the top of the rubber sleeve of the airtight packer 4 and then enters the inner cavity of the injection jacket 3b through the outer jacket injection port 3b1 of the annulus injection valve 3. This pushes the annular piston 3e upward, overcoming the resistance of the spring 3d. The slurry then enters the inner cavity of the injection cannula 8 through the inner tube injection port 3c1 and the cannula injection port 8c. After the set injection volume is reached, the cement slurry in the injection plug 8 reaches a predetermined height, and the injection pipe column is lifted, so that the lower end of the injection plug 8 is separated from the annular injection valve 3. The annular piston 3e is reset under the tension of the spring 3d, and the inner tube injection port 3c1 is closed. The cement slurry in the injection plug 8 falls and fills the outer circumference of the release joint 2.
[0042] S6. Positive circulation well washing: Inject cleaning fluid from the central channel, the cleaning fluid flows out from the lower port of the mortar injection plug 8, and then returns to the wellhead to clean the oil casing annulus slurry above the release joint 2.
[0043] S7. Pull out the pipe and wait for setting: Pull the cement injection pipe 8 out of the wellhead, and let the cement slurry enter and wait for setting until the casing annulus space between the release joint 2 and the rubber end of the airtight packer 4 is sealed.
[0044] S8, intubation and gas insufflation: Figure 8 As shown, a gas injection string is lowered into the cannula. The string structure from bottom to top is a gas injection cannula 10, a variable buckle joint and an upper gas injection oil pipe 9. The middle section of the gas injection cannula 10 passes through the sheath ring 3f of the annulus ash injection valve 3. The lower end of the gas injection cannula 10 is inserted into the central pipe of the airtight seal packer 4 and matches each other. A sealing ring is embedded in the outer periphery of the lower end of the gas injection cannula 10 to achieve sealing with the central pipe of the airtight seal packer 4. Then, sealed gas injection is carried out, and carbon dioxide flows out from the bypass port of the one-way gas injection valve 5 and is injected into the lower gas injection layer section until the designed gas injection volume is reached.
[0045] S9. Seal the gas injection layer: Figure 9 As shown, after the lower gas injection layer section reaches the designed gas injection volume, it is sealed; the slurry is squeezed from the central channel and squeezed into the lower gas injection layer section until the set volume is reached.
[0046] S10, start the pipe and wait for solidification: Figure 10 As shown, the gas injection string is lifted up to separate the lower end of the gas injection cannula 10 from the annular ash injection valve 3, and then the well is flushed by positive circulation, the pipe is lifted, and solidification is waited to complete the plugging of the lower gas injection layer; S11, Gas injection in the upper gas injection layer: Figure 11 As shown, the position of the packer card point and the combination of the pipe string are designed according to the position of the barrier layer and the upper gas injection layer segment, and the upper gas injection layer segment adjacent to the plugging layer is used as the new lower gas injection layer segment. Return to step S1 to realize gas injection of the upper layer, and repeat this cycle to complete the gas injection and plugging of all gas injection layer segments layer by layer.
[0047] The lower end of the tail pipe of the upper layer setting and releasing pipe string can be screwed to the screw plug, and can also be inserted into the releasing joint of the next layer.
