[0044] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] Current drilling fluid rheological measurements are all conducted on the surface. Conventional drilling fluid rheological measuring instruments can only test the rheological properties of drilling fluids at normal temperature and atmospheric pressure. However, in actual downhole conditions, pressure and temperature are present, and downhole temperature is dynamically changing. Existing surface-based drilling fluid rheometers capable of measuring high-temperature and high-pressure drilling fluids cannot match the actual downhole pressure and temperature, and therefore cannot reflect the true downhole drilling fluid rheological properties. Therefore, how to achieve real-time downhole drilling fluid rheological measurement and improve the accuracy and efficiency of such measurements is a problem that needs to be solved in this field.

[0046] See Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the invention discloses a real-time measurement method for downhole drilling fluid rheology, applied to a drilling fluid rheology measurement section, specifically including:

[0047] Step S11: Obtain the drilling measurement parameters downhole, and use a thermocouple single-bridge circuit to calculate the temperature of the drilling measurement parameters.

[0048] This application is applied to a drilling fluid rheology measurement sub, which includes a sub housing, multiple piezoresistors, a cover plate, a circuit board compartment, an impeller, and a Hall sensor.

[0049] The mechanical structure of the drilling fluid rheology measurement sub is as follows: Figure 2As shown, it comprises both mechanical and electrical parts. The short section mechanical structure includes a short section shell, which is a hollow cylinder with a length of 0.5m to 5m, a diameter of 50mm to 800mm, and an inner diameter of 8mm to 760mm. The upper and lower ends have threaded joints. Inside the shell, the upper part houses piezoresistors 1 and 4, with chambers 2 and 10 positioned at 90° to the central axis. The lower part houses two piezoresistors 2 and 3, with chambers 6 and 9 also positioned at 90° to the central axis. The distance between the upper and lower parts is 0.2m to 4.5m. Piezoresistors 1, 2, 3, and 4 form a bridge circuit for measuring the differential pressure of the drilling fluid. The middle section houses piezoresistor 5, chamber 4, for measuring the drilling fluid pressure. The contact area between the varistor housing and the external drilling fluid uses a thin metal film, which is welded to the housing. The varistor housing is filled with a pressure-conducting colloid to transmit drilling fluid pressure to the varistor. A circuit board compartment is located in the center of the housing and is sealed with a cover plate. The cover plate has through holes around its perimeter and is fixed to the housing with screws. A sealing ring is placed between the cover plate and the housing.

[0050] The lower part of the housing houses a rotatable impeller, consisting of blades and a central hollow cylinder. The blades and cylinder are at a certain angle, allowing the impeller to rotate as drilling fluid flows through. The impeller also possesses a certain magnetic property to activate the Hall sensor. The impeller is mounted on a support frame within the housing via the central hollow cylinder. The support frame has a central cylinder for mounting the impeller, with four thin cylinders above and below it. These cylinders fix the central cylinder to the housing and are perpendicular to the central cylinder, ensuring fluid flow and minimizing disturbance. The impeller is positioned at least 100mm away from the bottom pressure-sensitive resistor to avoid interference with pressure measurement. A Hall sensor compartment is located next to the impeller; the Hall sensor activates when the impeller approaches.

[0051] Small holes are drilled between the varistor compartment, the Hall sensor compartment, and the circuit board compartment for wire connections. Grooves are cut into the side wall of the housing to facilitate drilling, sealed with a cover plate. Through holes are drilled around the cover plate, which is fixed to the housing with screws. A sealing ring is placed between the cover plate and the housing. Varistor compartments 9 and 10 have wire holes drilled at a 45° angle to the circuit board compartment, and the circuit board compartment has wire holes drilled to varistor compartments 9 and 10. The two wire holes intersect and conduct in the middle. Variable resistors, the circuit board compartment, and the Hall sensor compartment all have wire holes drilled directly to the circuit board compartment. A schematic diagram of the wire holes is shown below. Figure 3 As shown.

[0052] The measurement circuit of the short section proposed in this application mainly includes temperature measurement, differential pressure measurement, and flow measurement circuits. A schematic diagram of the measurement circuit is shown below. Figure 4 As shown, this application achieves temperature measurement and calculation through a short-section measurement circuit.

[0053] For example, to obtain downhole drilling measurement parameters, a thermocouple single-bridge circuit is constructed based on thermocouples. The temperature measurement voltage is determined from the drilling measurement parameters, and the temperature is calculated using the thermocouple single-bridge circuit. Specifically, the temperature measurement uses a single-bridge circuit composed of thermocouples. The input voltage is a reference voltage source, which amplifies the weak voltage output signal of the bridge circuit through a two-stage amplification circuit consisting of an instrumentation amplifier and an operational amplifier. The voltage value is then obtained through analog-to-digital conversion, and the microprocessor calculates the temperature using the following formula:

[0054] ;

[0055] Where T is temperature. Here, a, b, and c represent the temperature measurement voltage and the temperature T, respectively. The polynomial coefficients.

[0056] Step S12: Calculate the flow velocity based on the Hall sensor to obtain the flow velocity, and calculate the pressure difference based on the flow velocity using a piezoresistive bridge to obtain the static pressure difference and dynamic pressure difference.

[0057] In this embodiment, the calculation process for static pressure difference is as follows: a varistor bridge is constructed based on varistors, and the pressure difference measurement voltage is determined from the drilling measurement parameters; the pressure difference is calculated using the varistor bridge to obtain the static pressure difference. Specifically, the pressure difference measurement uses a bridge composed of four varistors to offset the influence of temperature. The input voltage is a reference voltage generated by a reference voltage source, and then the weak voltage output signal of the bridge is amplified by a two-stage amplification circuit consisting of an instrumentation amplifier and an operational amplifier. The voltage value is then obtained through analog-to-digital conversion, and the microprocessor calculates the static pressure difference and dynamic pressure difference using the following formula:

[0058] ;

[0059] in, Pressure difference, including static pressure difference and dynamic pressure difference. The voltage for differential pressure measurement is given by e, f, and g, where e, f, and g represent the differential pressure. With differential pressure measurement voltage The polynomial coefficients.

[0060] In this embodiment, the rotor frequency of the impeller is determined from the drilling measurement parameters. The product between the rotor frequency and the preset flow velocity coefficient is calculated using a Hall sensor, and the product is used as the flow velocity. It is then determined whether the flow velocity is zero. If the flow velocity is zero, a pressure difference is calculated using a piezoresistive bridge to obtain the static pressure difference. The process of obtaining drilling measurement parameters and calculating flow velocity is repeated until the flow velocity is not zero, and then the dynamic pressure difference of the drilling fluid is calculated.

[0061] The flow velocity calculation process is as follows: the flow velocity measurement microprocessor measures the rotor frequency f of the impeller by counting and collecting the on / off state of the Hall sensor, and then calculates the flow velocity using the following formula: Q=Kf, where K is the flow coefficient.

[0062] The flow rate is used to determine whether drilling fluid is circulating. If the flow rate is 0, the drilling fluid is not circulating. The density of the drilling fluid is then calculated, and the static pressure difference when the drilling fluid is not circulating is taken. The distance between the upper and lower sensors is L, and the density calculation formula is as follows:

[0063] ;

[0064] Repeat the process of acquiring drilling measurement parameters and calculating flow velocity until the flow velocity is not zero, and then calculate the dynamic pressure difference during drilling fluid circulation. .

[0065] Step S13: Use a piezoresistive single-bridge circuit to calculate the pressure of the drilling measurement parameters to obtain the pressure.

[0066] In this embodiment, pressure measurement uses a single-bridge circuit composed of a pressure-sensitive resistor 5. The input voltage is a reference voltage source, which generates a reference voltage. The weak voltage output signal of the bridge is then amplified by a two-stage amplification circuit consisting of an instrumentation amplifier and an operational amplifier. The voltage value is then obtained through analog-to-digital conversion, and the microprocessor calculates the pressure using the following formula:

[0067] ;

[0068] Where P is pressure, Here, h, i, and j represent the pressure P and the pressure measuring voltage, respectively. The coefficients of the polynomial.

[0069] Step S14: Calculate the viscosity of the static pressure difference, the dynamic pressure difference, and the flow rate to obtain the viscosity of the drilling fluid in the well under the conditions of the temperature and pressure, and determine the real-time rheological measurement result of the drilling fluid based on the viscosity.

[0070] In this embodiment, a preset viscosity calculation formula is used to calculate the viscosity of the drilling fluid downhole under the conditions of static pressure difference, dynamic pressure difference, and flow velocity, so as to obtain the viscosity of the drilling fluid under the conditions of the stated temperature and pressure; the viscosity calculation formula is:

[0071] ;

[0072] in, Viscosity, Where is the viscosity coefficient, and d is the diameter of the drilling fluid rheology measurement sub. For dynamic pressure difference, Where L is the static pressure difference, L is the spacing between the varistor bridges, and Q is the flow velocity.

[0073] Furthermore, the entire sub-section proposed in this application can measure temperature, pressure, drilling fluid flow rate, and drilling fluid rheology. It can be placed at the bottom of the well to measure the drilling fluid rheology under high temperature and high pressure conditions, or multiple sub-sections can be placed to measure the drilling fluid rheology throughout the wellbore, providing a reliable basis for drilling fluid rheology optimization.

[0074] The innovation of this application lies in its ability to obtain real-time drilling fluid rheological measurement results under pressure and temperature conditions by calculating temperature, flow rate, pressure and viscosity of downhole drilling measurement parameters. Furthermore, this application utilizes a piezoresistive bridge to obtain high-precision bottom hole pressure differential, which can counteract the effect of temperature on the piezoresistive resistor.

[0075] In this embodiment, downhole drilling measurement parameters are acquired. Temperature is calculated using a thermocouple single-bridge circuit. Flow velocity is calculated based on a Hall sensor. Differential pressure is calculated using a piezoresistive bridge circuit based on the flow velocity to obtain static and dynamic differential pressure. Pressure is calculated using a piezoresistive single-bridge circuit to obtain pressure. Viscosity is calculated using the static differential pressure, dynamic differential pressure, and flow velocity to obtain the viscosity of the downhole drilling fluid under the given temperature and pressure conditions. The rheological properties of the drilling fluid are then determined based on the viscosity. This application utilizes a thermocouple single-bridge circuit, a Hall sensor, a piezoresistive bridge, and a piezoresistive single-bridge circuit to calculate drilling measurement parameters such as temperature, flow rate, differential pressure, and pressure. This yields the temperature, flow rate, static differential pressure, dynamic differential pressure, and pressure. Viscosity is then calculated to obtain the drilling fluid viscosity under the given temperature and pressure conditions, enabling real-time measurement of drilling fluid rheology. Furthermore, this application, applied to drilling fluid rheology measurement subsections, leverages a thermocouple single-bridge circuit, a Hall sensor, a piezoresistive bridge, and a piezoresistive single-bridge circuit to counteract the influence of temperature on the piezoresistive resistor, reducing the operational complexity of real-time drilling fluid rheology measurement and improving its accuracy and efficiency, thereby enhancing cuttings transport efficiency and drilling efficiency.
