Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oil well intermittent operation and relates to an intelligent intermittent operation control method, system, equipment and storage medium for oil production systems. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, Changqing Oilfield has achieved significant success in intermittent well operation, which has gradually become the norm. Intermittent well operation involves starting and stopping wells to achieve intermittent oil extraction. During the shutdown phase, the wells are allowed to recover to their optimal production state under natural conditions before production is restarted, achieving the goals of cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and energy conservation. However, current intermittent operation control methods always have some deviations in the selection and calculation of start-up and shutdown times, failing to achieve the true intermittent operation effect.
[0003] Scheduled start-up is currently the main method of intermittent well operation. The start and stop times for this method are mainly calculated based on manual experience or parameters such as well production. This method is labor-intensive, requires a lot of manual intervention, has low production efficiency, and the historical data used for calculation cannot provide real-time information on the well's status. Therefore, the intermittent operation effect is not obvious, and it cannot achieve true intelligent control.
[0004] Intermittent operation based on dynamic liquid level involves collecting dynamic liquid level values and analyzing their recovery patterns. Production resumes when the dynamic liquid level is high and the machine stops to recover when the level drops. While this method possesses a degree of intelligence, it first requires investment in equipment for liquid level data acquisition. Secondly, the large intervals between dynamic liquid level data collections result in low real-time performance, hindering rapid production analysis and control. Although dynamic liquid level values can be calculated based on data such as dynamometer cards, the dynamometer card displacement data is zero during shutdown periods, making dynamic liquid level calculation impossible during these times. Furthermore, the calculated dynamic liquid level has significant errors, resulting in less than ideal intermittent operation performance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an intelligent intermittent control method, system, equipment and storage medium for oil production systems, so as to realize intermittent real-time intelligent control according to the actual state of the oil well, without the need for additional manpower and material resources.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: A method for intelligent intermittent control of an oil production system includes the following processes: S1, obtain the current oil well's continuous production dynamometer card data; S2, uses continuous production dynamometer data to determine whether an oil well has reached steady-state production; S3, if the oil well reaches a steady state, calculate the pump efficiency of the oil well under steady state. When the calculated pump efficiency is less than or equal to the set minimum pump efficiency, issue a pumping unit shutdown command. S4: After the pumping unit stops, calculate the change in static load value when the liquid level changes. When the change in static load value is greater than or equal to the set load change value, issue a pumping unit start command.
[0007] Preferably, in S2, the process of determining whether steady-state production has been achieved is as follows: obtain the number of dynamometer cards that have been continuously produced for more than a first set time, calculate the output and dynamometer card area corresponding to each dynamometer card, and calculate the average output and average dynamometer card area. When the changes in output and dynamometer card area are both less than or equal to the set fluctuation range value, the oil well reaches steady state.
[0008] Furthermore, the fluctuation range is set at 10%.
[0009] Furthermore, if the change in either production or working area exceeds the set fluctuation range, wait for the well to continue production for a second set time, and then make another judgment. After repeating the judgment for m rounds, if the condition is still not met, the well cannot reach a steady state.
[0010] Preferably, in S3, the minimum pump efficiency is set to 15%.
[0011] Preferably, in S4, the calculation process for the change in static load value is as follows: the fluid level height when the oil well is shut down is H0, the fluid level height after recovery is Hk, and the change in fluid level height is Δh = H0 - Hk; the change in static load value is... In the formula ρ is the liquid density; G is the gravitational constant; S is the annular area between the tubing and the sucker rod.
[0012] Furthermore, the load change value is calculated based on the set liquid level recovery height.
[0013] An intelligent intermittent control system for an oil production system includes: The dynamometer card data acquisition module is used to acquire the continuous production dynamometer card data of the current oil well; The steady-state judgment module is used to determine whether an oil well has reached steady-state production based on continuous production dynamometer data. The shutdown judgment module is used to calculate the pump efficiency of the oil well under steady state if the oil well reaches steady state, and to issue a pumping unit shutdown command when the calculated pump efficiency is less than or equal to the set minimum pump efficiency. The start-up judgment module is used to calculate the change in static load value when the liquid level changes after the pumping unit stops. The pumping unit start-up command is issued when the change in static load value is greater than or equal to the set load change value.
[0014] A computer device includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor executes the computer program to implement the steps of the intelligent intermittent control method for the oil production system.
[0015] A computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the intelligent intermittent control method for the oil production system.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The intelligent intermittent control method for oil production systems described in this invention determines the shutdown time by collecting dynamometer cards to calculate pump efficiency during the start-up production period, and determines the start-up time by collecting load values during the shutdown period. This achieves real-time intelligent intermittent control based on the actual state of the oil well, without requiring additional manpower or material resources. It effectively solves the current bottlenecks and problems encountered in intermittent control, achieving the goal of energy saving and efficiency improvement. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The intelligent intermittent control method for oil production systems described in this embodiment aims to solve the problem that existing intermittent control technologies cannot well match the production conditions of oil wells, resulting in unsatisfactory intermittent effects. The method includes the following steps: S1: Obtain the current oil well's continuous production dynamometer data.
[0024] S2 determines whether an oil well has reached steady-state production by using continuous production dynamometer data.
[0025] S3. If the oil well reaches a steady state, calculate the pump efficiency of the oil well under steady state. When the calculated pump efficiency is less than or equal to the set minimum pump efficiency, issue a pumping unit shutdown command.
[0026] S4: After the pumping unit stops, calculate the change in static load value when the liquid level changes. When the change in static load value is greater than or equal to the set load change value, issue a pumping unit start command.
[0027] like Figure 1 The diagram illustrates the specific process of the intelligent intermittent control method for oil production systems, which uses real-time calculation of well pump efficiency and upper stroke static load for start-stop control, as described in this embodiment. The method includes the following steps: Step 1: Obtain the current oil well's continuous production dynamometer data.
[0028] In this step, the dynamometer card (DDC) refers to the load-displacement relationship curve during pumping unit production. It reflects the operating status of the sucker rod and the surface power system. The DDC is the "health check report" of oil well production, reflecting the well's fullness, equipment operating status, and production efficiency. Continuous DDC provides a basis for production stability over time. Real-time data on load and displacement during pumping unit production are obtained through DDC measuring instruments to generate a DDC reflecting the production process.
[0029] Step 2: As Figure 2 As shown, it is determined whether the oil well has reached steady-state production. If it cannot reach steady-state, intermittent production will not be carried out.
[0030] Method for determining steady-state production: Obtain the number n of dynamometer cards for continuous production of 1 hour or more, and calculate the output Q corresponding to each dynamometer card. i Area S of the work diagram i Let i = 0, 1, ..., n, and calculate its average output Q. avg With average work area S avg .
[0031] when and (in the formula) When the set fluctuation range value (usually 10%) is met simultaneously, the oil well reaches a steady state. Otherwise, the well continues production for a time T (usually 2 hours), and the condition is checked again, for m rounds (m usually 3 times). If the condition is still not met, the oil well cannot reach a steady state.
[0032] In this step, steady-state production refers to stable well output and equipment operating status, with fluctuations within acceptable limits. Fluctuation amplitude refers to the percentage change in dynamometer card area and output, calculated by determining the output Q corresponding to continuous dynamometer cards. i Area S of the work diagram i and their average output Q avg With average work area S avgThe fluctuation range is determined to be less than 10%. Steady-state production indicates that the pumping unit is operating smoothly and producing a stable amount of fluid, making it suitable for intermittent operation. Fluctuations exceeding the threshold indicate unstable production, and intermittent operation may affect the normal operation of equipment and wells.
[0033] Step 3: If a steady state can be reached, calculate the pump efficiency of the oil well under steady-state conditions. .
[0034] In this step, pump efficiency refers to the efficiency with which the pumping unit pumps fluid from the bottom of the well to the surface, usually expressed as a percentage. Pump efficiency is calculated from dynamometer card data and is a crucial indicator for evaluating the well's production status and the pumping unit's operating efficiency. High pump efficiency indicates high fluid fill and good production status; low pump efficiency indicates insufficient fluid supply or pump failure. A decrease in pump efficiency to a certain threshold indicates the need to shut down the unit and wait for the fluid level to recover.
[0035] Step 4: When the pump efficiency is high Time (in the formula) (This is the set minimum pump efficiency). At this point, the oil well fill level drops to the set shutdown value. The brake is then controlled to stop the pumping unit at the upper stroke stage of the oil well, i.e., the pumping unit stops, and the oil well fluid level is allowed to recover.
[0036] In this step, the filling degree is the proportion of oil well fluid to the total volume of the pump chamber, which affects pump efficiency. A minimum pump efficiency threshold is typically set based on experience; below this value indicates insufficient liquid level. When pump efficiency drops below the set minimum, the system controls the pumping unit to stop operating and monitors liquid level recovery. Pump efficiency is closely related to pump fill rate; shutdown avoids dry pumping losses, improves production efficiency, and extends equipment life.
[0037] Step 5: When the pump efficiency... At that time, analysis and judgment Whether the setting is reasonable is generally determined by 15%. If the setting is too small, reset it and proceed to step four to recalculate.
[0038] In this step, pump efficiency is repeatedly calculated and analyzed to ensure that the set value can both avoid premature shutdowns that waste resources and prevent late shutdowns that could damage the equipment. Setting the minimum pump efficiency too high will lead to frequent shutdowns and affect production continuity; setting the minimum pump efficiency too low may increase equipment load and energy consumption.
[0039] Step 6: When the pump efficiency... At that time, and If configured properly, the oil well will be in good production condition and will not require interruption.
[0040] In this step, when production is going well, the well's pump efficiency is high and stable, indicating sufficient fluid supply and no need for interruption of production. The production status is analyzed based on pump efficiency and the set minimum pump efficiency to determine whether to continue production. Intermittent operation is unnecessary when pump efficiency is high; maintaining normal production maximizes fluid production efficiency.
[0041] Step 7: As Figure 3 As shown, after the oil well is shut down, the fluid level gradually recovers, and its static load value decreases as the fluid level recovers. .
[0042] Calculation of oil well shutdown load change: The fluid level height H0 at the time of shutdown of a specific oil well is Hk after recovery. Therefore, the change in fluid level height is Δh = H0 - Hk. The change reflected in the load (the change in static load value) is
[0043] In the formula : Liquid density; G: Gravitational constant; S: Annular area between tubing and sucker rod.
[0044] In this step, the fluid level change refers to the gradual recovery of the well fluid level after shutdown. The static load value change is the change in fluid level reflected on the load curve. The fluid level is measured by a fluid level monitoring device. Fluid level recovery reduces the static load value. By monitoring the static load change, it is determined whether the fluid level has reached the start-up standard.
[0045] Step 8: When Time (in the formula) (The set static load change value can be calculated based on the set liquid level recovery height). At this time, the oil well liquid level reaches the set start-up value, and the pumping unit is controlled to start production, entering the first step.
[0046] In this step, the start-up value is defined as the load change or liquid level height at which the liquid level recovers to meet production requirements. When the static load value reaches the set static load change value, the pumping unit is controlled to resume production. Reaching the start-up value indicates that the oil well has sufficient liquid storage, resulting in higher production efficiency and pump efficiency upon start-up.
[0047] Step 9: When If the well remains shut down, further analysis and judgment will be conducted. Whether the setting is reasonable is generally calculated based on a liquid level recovery height of 20m. If the setting is too large, reset it and proceed to step eight to recalculate.
[0048] In this step, the liquid level recovery height is the distance the liquid level recovers from its initial height after shutdown to the specified height. Determine if the set static load change value is appropriate. A set static load change value that is too large may waste time, while a set static load change value that is too small may result in insufficient pump efficiency upon startup. Properly adjusting the set static load change value is key to optimizing intermittent operation. If the set liquid level recovery height or static load change value is unreasonable, it needs to be reset and its effect verified.
[0049] In the above process, the following situations do not involve intermittent operations: Obtain the current continuous production dynamometer card data of the oil well and determine whether it has reached a steady state. If the change in oil well fluid volume and the change in dynamometer card area are greater than 10%, and a steady state has not been reached, then intermittent production will not be carried out.
[0050] Calculate the steady-state efficiency of oil well pumps ,when When, then judge Whether the setting is reasonable is generally determined by 15%. If the setting is too small, reset it. At that time, and If configured properly, the oil well will be in good production condition and will not require interruption.
[0051] After the oil well is shut down, the fluid level gradually recovers. By collecting the static load in real time, the change in static load value as the fluid level recovers is calculated. ,when If (F0 is generally calculated based on a liquid level recovery height of 20m), then the well remains shut down.
[0052] The following is an introduction to the actual implementation process of the above-mentioned intelligent intermittent control method for oil production systems, using the actual working process of an oil well as an example: (1) Taking the working parameters of a certain oil well as an example: the inner diameter of the tubing of the oil well is 62mm, the diameter of the sucker rod is 22mm, the density of crude oil is 0.8g / cm3, the dynamometer card acquisition interval is 10min, and the number of dynamometer cards for continuous production for 1 hour is 6. Its production, pump efficiency and dynamometer card area data are shown in the table below:
[0053] (2) Determine whether the oil well has reached a steady state and the fluctuation range. Take 10%:
[0054] (3) Satisfy and Therefore, the oil well has reached a steady state, and the current pump efficiency is... =10%.
[0055] (4) Set the minimum pump efficiency At this time, it is satisfied Control the brakes to stop the pumping unit in the upper stroke phase, and record the static load at the moment of stopping. =47.74kN.
[0056] (5) Set the load variation value (according to Calculations show that a 1 kN change in static load corresponds to a liquid level change of approximately 50 m. Therefore, a 20 m recovery of the liquid level corresponds to a static load change of 0.4 kN. Static load values are collected in real-time after shutdown. As the page recovers, its static load value gradually decreases; the static load change is calculated. .
[0057] (6) The minimum static load variation of the well is 47.25 kN, and the static load when it tends to stabilize is 47.3 kN, which satisfies the condition. Therefore, when the static load of the oil well drops to 47.3kN, the pumping unit is controlled to start production.
