The measuring method of oil well cement paste coagulation time and grout coagulation instrument
Technical field:
The present invention relates to a kind of can the simulation preferably under different well depths and the static condition, measure the annular space grout in high temperature and high pressure environment, its coagulated state and corresponding time method.It is applicable to operations such as petroleum and natural gas well cementation, squeeze method, cementing plug and leak stopping.
Background technology:
In oil, gas prospecting drilling well, bored thousands of meters well depths after, fixed, the packing borehole wall prevents that rock caves in the well, is to increase oil, gas well life-span, improves the key technical problem of oil gas well potential.Technical term fixed, the packing borehole wall is referred to as casing and cementing.Casing and cementing is with the sleeve pipe RIH, again oil well cement paste is gone into to overlap pipe orifice with infusion, replaces between the annular to the borehole wall and sleeve pipe, and the static fixed borehole wall in back that solidifies is called for short cementing.In the oil well cement paste coagulation process, different coagulated state and corresponding time variation ranges thereof constantly to preventing oil, gas, water breakthrough problem that annular space grout " weightlessness " causes and the bonding quality that improves cement mantle, have important and practical meanings.
At present, the different coagulated states of oil well cement paste reach just, final setting time can only be measured under normal pressure and general temperature maintenance, employed surveying instrument is a Vicat apparatus, also once used similar dimension card measuring method to measure first, the final setting time of grout under the High Temperature High Pressure situation, but because of its rugged environment, make mechanical measurement not satisfactory, do not use.In order to solve oil well cement paste in high temperature and high pressure environment, measure first, the final setting time of its different condensation processes, instruct field practice, the special grout of using is in condensation process, the phenomenon of hydration heat temperature variation, determine the presetting period that its grout begins to plastify and have the final setting time of solidification intensity, the former is reflected in the hydration heat temperature and begins to raise a little, and the latter reflects that temperature begins drop point.Because the rising point that hydration heat begins all is the same with this rule of drop point to all grouts.Therefore, as long as measure the temperature variation curve of grout in corresponding high temperature and high pressure environment, can determine first, the final setting time of different slurries.According to conditions down-hole, regulate and the control grout just, final setting time, can improve the ability of the bonding quality of cement mantle and grease proofing, gas, water breakthrough.
Summary of the invention:
In order to solve oil well cement paste in high temperature and high pressure environment, measure first, the final setting time of its different condensation processes, special measuring method and the grout coagulation instrument that proposes a kind of oil well cement paste coagulation time.
The technical solution adopted for the present invention to solve the technical problems is: according to the phenomenon of oil well cement hydration heat temperature variation, determine its grout presetting period that begins to plastify and the final setting time with solidification intensity.Particular content is:
1. hydrated cementitious law of heat release and to measuring Temperature Influence
At oil well cement composition mesosilicic acid DFP 3CaO.SiO
2(be called for short C
3S) content studies show that up to about 70%, C
3The hydration of S can be represented the hydration characteristics of cement, and it plays a part leading to cement setting.As shown in Figure 1, C
3The aquation process of S is divided into five stages: induce in advance, induce, quicken, slow down and spread.Wherein induce in advance, induce, acceleration and deceleration phase be involved in the present invention.Heat release speed is rapid in pre-induction period, but generally has only tens seconds to a few minutes, is to occur in grout system to join the stage, does not have influence to measuring temperature; In induction period, because heat release speed is mild, there is no obvious influence to measuring temperature, its time length is relevant with the prescription and the water cement ratio of grout; Boost phase and deceleration phase are called solidification stages, and in boost phase, heat release speed is obviously accelerated, and have a significant effect to measuring temperature, and in deceleration phase, heat release speed has obviously slows down phenomenon on the contrary.Therefore, can make first, final setting time that corresponding discrimination standard is determined grout according to the rule of hydrated cementitious heat release and the exploration result of characteristics and foundation experiment.
2. experimental technique and experimental result contrast
Grout is first, the final setting time definition, and initial set is final set time for beginning to experience to the sclerosis of energy bearing certain pressure when the cement water transfer for beginning to lose to part the time interval of plasticity when the cement water transfer.The general Vicat apparatus that adopts is measured.Vicat apparatus gauge head general assembly (TW) is 300g, the chaining pin of front end band one length, during measurement by the free-falling of grout face, when chaining pin can not penetrate the examination body again and the required time be called the grout presetting period in base plate 5mm the time, in can only entering the examination body, chaining pin is called the grout final setting time during 0.5~1mm.According to this standard method and measuring method of the present invention, three kinds of different grout prescriptions, two kinds of water cement ratio and two experimental temperatures have been carried out the contrast experiment under normal pressure, its experiment condition and the results are shown in Table 1.By table 1 explanation, the relative error of thermometry and standard method of measurement is less, and its maximum error has only 6.3%, and average relative error is 3.42%.Therefore, the measuring method of the present invention's employing is believable.
3. adopt thermometry to determine that grout is first, the standard of final setting time
According to measured time-temperature variation curve (referring to Fig. 3~Fig. 8), it determines that the presetting period of oil well cement paste and the standard of final setting time are: when temperature curve changes, the pairing time was the presetting period of grout when its temperature rose to the temperature difference and is 0.5 ℃; When temperature curve was changed to maximum point and has just begun to descend, promptly when the maximum temperature difference point began to descend, its pairing timing definition was the final setting time of grout.
Two kinds of measuring methods measurements of table 1 grout is first, the experiment comparing result of final setting time
