9 results about "Fracture pressure" patented technology

Fracture pressure is the pressure needed to create a fracture in a rock while drilling in open hole. Closure stress is the pressure needed to fracture a rock through perforations in cased hole. ... Closure stress is the pressure at which the fracture closes after the fracturing pressure is relaxed. It is usually between 80 and 90% of breakdown pressure.

ActiveCN117684931BOil productionProduction tubing
This invention discloses a method and apparatus for accelerating the preheating start-up of SAGD in heavy oil reservoirs. The method involves determining the required volume of a high thermal conductivity material dispersion based on the minimum fracture pressure of the target oil layer; injecting hot water into the cleaned steam injection wells and production wells to pressurize to the minimum fracture pressure of the oil layer and maintaining this pressure for a period of time; intermittently injecting the high thermal conductivity material dispersion into the steam injection wells and production wells until all the high thermal conductivity material dispersion is injected; and performing steam injection circulation preheating start-up on the steam injection wells and production wells containing the high thermal conductivity material dispersion. Through this method, this invention achieves significant improvement in the thermal conductivity coefficient of the formation near the wellbore by injecting a high thermal conductivity material into the microfractures formed by the super-fracture pressure without altering the original SAGD injection-production tubing structure, rapidly establishing a uniform oil drainage channel, reducing the start-up time by more than half compared to conventional steam injection preheating start-up methods, significantly reducing energy consumption, accelerating the transition to SAGD production, and increasing the oil production rate.

Hard rock long hole directional hydraulic fracturing pressure relief method

PendingCN122383291AToxic gasMining engineering
This invention relates to the field of mine safety and rock strata control technology, specifically to a safe decompression method for long-bore directional hydraulic fracturing in hard rock strata. First, based on the geological conditions, geostress, and mechanical parameters of the target hard rock strata, the design parameters for the long directional borehole are determined. Then, directional drilling combined with a drilling-while-guided system is used to ensure precise borehole positioning within the target rock strata. A segmented isolation device is lowered to form a high-pressure sealed chamber. According to the design parameters, a retreating fracturing process is used to fracture segment by segment, initiating fractures and extending them to the far field. Finally, the fracturing effect is verified through real-time monitoring to complete safe decompression. This invention is a spark-free, low-vibration static operation with no toxic gas generation, ensuring high safety. It can transform the overall impact collapse of rock strata into a layered, small-step, stable collapse, resulting in excellent fracturing control. The use of multi-segment fracturing within a single borehole reduces drilling site and equipment relocation, lowers treatment costs, and is suitable for decompression treatment of hard rock strata in underground coal mines, ensuring safe mine production.

A method of hydraulic fracturing coal body weakening

PendingCN122304739APulser pumpHydraulic fracturing
This invention discloses a method for weakening coal seams through hydraulic fracturing. A directional drilling rig is used to drill a hole perpendicular to the working face in the haulage or auxiliary haulage roadway. A packer and fracturing rod are then placed into the hole. After the packer and fracturing rod are lowered to the bottom of the hole, the fracturing rod is connected to a pulse pump. Once the pipeline is connected, the pulse pump is started. The pump is stopped after the designed fracturing time is reached, and the fracturing rod is then withdrawn 2-5 meters outwards for another fracturing operation. This process continues until fracturing reaches near the borehole opening, completing the fracturing of one borehole. This fracturing cycle is repeated. During the fracturing process, monitoring equipment is used to monitor the fracturing flow rate and fracturing pressure in real time. This short-distance, high-frequency fracturing method allows for more than 60 fracturing operations per borehole. Therefore, the accompanying packer is a high-pressure resistant and fatigue-resistant packer that can be reused multiple times.
