Technologies in enhancing the ROP by air drilling through the piedmont gravel layers with huge thickness in the Tarim Basin

AbstractHeavily thick gravel layers were deposited in a piedmont gas reservoir in the Tarim Basin,where mud drilling has been encountered by a low ROP,high bit wear and so onA high ROP was expected to achieve by air drilling,however,well deviation control and wellbore instability were two technical bottlenecking problemsIn view of this,based on a huge number of experimental studiesa technical scheme was proposed for air drilling in this study areaFirst,reasonable air injection rates were determined at different downhole conditions by use of the minimum kinetic energy judgment criteriaSecond,the continuous circulating air drilling technology was employed to prevent solids setting sticking,thus to extend footage and increase drilling efficiencyThird,the dynamic air drilling deviation control technology was recommended after the analysis of BHA dynamic characteristics,on this basis,the optimal design was suggested of the”bent nipple+double centralizer”BHAFourth,the polysulfonate KCL converting fluid system was optimized with strong inhibition and sealing performance,high anti collapse ability and lubricitv,and low filtration,and some drilling fluid conversion measures were also figured outIn a pilot case of air drilling with the above technical scheme in Well A,the maximum deviation angle was only 2.19° and the drilling fluid was converted within 2days;the ROP was enhanced by 3 to 5 times and the drilling time was saved by 119days compared with mud drillingThis supporting technology will play a positive role in improving the drilling speed in this study area

塔里木盆地山前某構(gòu)造儲(chǔ)層埋藏深度大于7000m,上部沉積了巨厚的礫石層,鉆井液鉆井鉆速低、鉆頭消耗多、周期長,嚴(yán)重制約了勘探開發(fā)效益,開展空氣鉆井提速具有廣闊前景。通過前期氣體鉆井現(xiàn)場應(yīng)用表明,山前構(gòu)造礫石層空氣鉆井時(shí)存在井壁失穩(wěn)、井斜控制難度大等技術(shù)瓶頸,筆者通過開展注入?yún)?shù)優(yōu)化設(shè)計(jì)、連續(xù)循環(huán)鉆井技術(shù)、動(dòng)力學(xué)防斜技術(shù)及鉆井液轉(zhuǎn)換技術(shù)研究,形成了山前構(gòu)造礫石層空氣鉆井配套技術(shù),通過在A井現(xiàn)場試驗(yàn),取得良好應(yīng)用效果。

1 空氣注入?yún)?shù)優(yōu)化

采用最小動(dòng)能法判斷標(biāo)準(zhǔn):l]確定合理灃氣量,該方法認(rèn)為:當(dāng)環(huán)空空氣最小返速不小于15.24ms時(shí),能將井底產(chǎn)生的巖屑攜帶至地面。根據(jù)實(shí)際鉆屑情況,模擬計(jì)算了Æ431.8mmÆ333.4mm兩種井眼尺寸,考慮不同井眼擴(kuò)大率,不同巖屑顆粒尺寸條件下的最小環(huán)空返速,參照最小動(dòng)能法判斷標(biāo)準(zhǔn),確定出合理注氣量(1,圖1、2)。

 

根據(jù)最小動(dòng)能法判斷準(zhǔn)則,給出不同條件下合理注氣量(1、2)。綜合考慮地面海拔影響,需要配套500m3min空氣注入設(shè)備。

 

 

2 連續(xù)循環(huán)鉆井技術(shù)

連續(xù)循環(huán)鉆井技術(shù)實(shí)現(xiàn)了在接單根、起下鉆期保持介質(zhì)的連續(xù)循環(huán)[2-5],避免井底積液引起的井壁垮塌,降低卡鉆風(fēng)險(xiǎn),提高鉆井效率。

閥式連續(xù)循環(huán)系統(tǒng)[6]主要由兩部分組成:連續(xù)循環(huán)閥、地面切換裝置(3)。其工作原理為:預(yù)先將連續(xù)循環(huán)閥配在單根頂端,連接一條側(cè)循環(huán)管線至連續(xù)循環(huán)閥,在接單根、起下鉆時(shí)通過地面切換裝置對(duì)正循環(huán)通道和側(cè)循環(huán)通道進(jìn)行切換,保持鉆井介質(zhì)始終處于連續(xù)循環(huán)狀態(tài)。

 

礫石層空氣鉆井過程中,易發(fā)生井徑擴(kuò)大,導(dǎo)致攜砂困難,存在沉砂卡鉆風(fēng)險(xiǎn),甚至可能因沉砂過多而提前結(jié)束空氣鉆井作業(yè)。采用連續(xù)循環(huán)鉆井技術(shù),具備以下優(yōu)點(diǎn)。

21 節(jié)省接立柱時(shí)間,提高鉆井效率

常規(guī)空氣鉆井采用接雙根方式進(jìn)行,連續(xù)循環(huán)空氣鉆井接立柱程序簡捷,節(jié)省了泄壓、倒換鉆具、壓力恢復(fù)等工序,相比常規(guī)“接立柱”節(jié)省時(shí)間近60%。

常規(guī)接立柱程序:劃眼、循環(huán)清砂®上提鉆具至上單根出轉(zhuǎn)盤面®停止注氣、泄壓®倒出上單根®接立柱®注氣,待立壓恢復(fù)至正常壓力值后,劃眼、鉆進(jìn)。

連續(xù)循環(huán)鉆井接立柱程序:劃眼®倒換閘閥,建立側(cè)循環(huán)通道®接立柱®倒換閘閥,建立主循環(huán)通道,恢復(fù)鉆進(jìn)。

22 提高復(fù)雜井段起下鉆作業(yè)安全性

當(dāng)井底沉砂多時(shí),在沉砂堆積井段進(jìn)行連續(xù)循環(huán)起下鉆作業(yè),可避免沉砂卡鉆,提高鉆井安全性。

23 延長空氣鉆井進(jìn)尺

井底沉砂過多可導(dǎo)致提前結(jié)束空氣鉆井,而采用連續(xù)循環(huán)鉆井技術(shù)可避免沉砂卡鉆,滿足空氣鉆井安全作業(yè)需求,延長空氣鉆井進(jìn)尺。

3 井斜控制

塔里木山前高陡構(gòu)造井斜控制[7]是空氣鉆井難題之一,空氣錘防斜技術(shù)[8]難以奏效,基于鉆具動(dòng)力學(xué)特性分析,提出一種“彎鉆具動(dòng)力學(xué)防斜技術(shù)”[9-10],對(duì)4種不同鉆具組合的動(dòng)態(tài)鐘擺力進(jìn)行了分析,優(yōu)選出Æ431.8mmÆ333.4mm井眼的彎短節(jié)+雙扶正器”的動(dòng)力學(xué)防斜鉆具組合(2),其底部鉆具組成為:鉆頭+彎短節(jié)(a°)+Æ228.6mm鉆鋌+扶正器+Æ228.6mm鉆鋌+扶正器+Æ228.6mm鉆鋌……

 

4 鉆井液轉(zhuǎn)換

針對(duì)塔里木山前礫石層鉆井液轉(zhuǎn)換過程中易發(fā)生井壁失穩(wěn)、井漏[11-12]等難題,通過室內(nèi)研究,形成了“強(qiáng)抑制、強(qiáng)封堵、高防塌性、高潤滑性、低濾失”特點(diǎn)的“二強(qiáng)二高一低”含油聚磺KCl鉆井液體系(3),基本配方如下:3%~4%的膨潤土+0.1%~0.3NaOH+0.05%~0.1KPAM80A51+2%~3%潤滑劑+3%~5SMP-1+3%~4SPNH+2%~3YL-80+0.5%~0.6PAC-LV+2%~3%聚合醇+5%~6%柴油+1%~1.5SP-80(占柴油體積)+3%~5KC1和適量的加重劑。

 

該轉(zhuǎn)換用鉆井液體系的組成為:特殊前置液,配方:油基潤濕反轉(zhuǎn)劑+柴油+氧化瀝青粉,利用油基潤濕反轉(zhuǎn)劑特性,改變巖石表面性質(zhì),變親水表面為憎水表面,阻止水分進(jìn)入地層,防止井壁坍塌。②特殊堵漏漿,通過鉆井液中加入適量無滲透、聚合醇、陽離子乳化瀝青等處理劑來實(shí)現(xiàn)鉆井液的防漏作用。③含油聚磺一KCl鉆井液,具有二強(qiáng)二高一低特征。舉砂液,建立井筒循環(huán)之后清潔井眼所用,通過高密度、高黏度的特點(diǎn)充分?jǐn)y帶井筒巖屑。形成了一套適合塔里木山前礫石層地質(zhì)特征的鉆井液轉(zhuǎn)換工藝技術(shù)(4),保障安全實(shí)施。
