Detailed description of the invention
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the detailed description of the invention of the present invention is described in detail.It should be appreciated that this place is retouched The detailed description of the invention stated is merely to illustrate and explains the present invention, is not limited to the present invention.
Fig. 1 is the flow chart of the measuring method of the flow rate of downhole fluid according to an embodiment of the invention, such as Fig. 1 institute Showing, the method comprises the steps.
In step s 110, reception is placed in the temperature measured by composite cable of down-hole.
Composite cable includes optical fiber and hot water radiation wire.Such as, as in figure 2 it is shown, optical cable and heater wire fit tightly and cross section Upper geometric relative position is fixed, and protects armour 210 interference fit with metal simultaneously.Metal protects the space in armour 210 by resistant to elevated temperatures Heat-conducting medium 212 is filled.Wrap up in deposited homogeneous insulation layers 208 outside hot water radiation wire 206, prevent electric current and outer layer metal wall in heating process Or between resistance wire, form short circuit.Optical fiber 204 outer wrapping protective layer 202, prevents from extruding optical fiber in metal protects armour 210 process of packing 204。
In the step s 120, determine the rate of change of the temperature recorded, when rate of change is less than rate of change threshold value, start power supply Hot water radiation wire in composite cable is powered by equipment, so that hot water radiation wire heats.
In step s 130, receive composite cable and measure, at each, the warming temperature that point records, and record the heating of correspondence Time.
In step S140, the warming temperature measuring point according to each and corresponding heat time heating time determine that default temperature becomes Change the value of consult volume of parameter.
In step S150, according to determined by the value of consult volume of variations in temperature parameter find in calibration curve collection of illustrative plates respectively The individual flow rate measuring some correspondence.
Calibration curve collection of illustrative plates includes representing the calibration curve of corresponding relation between variations in temperature parameter and flow rate.Temperature Variable parameter includes following at least one: heating rate, warming temperature or heating rate reach the heating-up time used by set-point.
For example, it is possible in each measurement point, the temperature gap that will heat up is divided by with section time heat time heating time, is risen Temperature speed, it is possible to and then the heating-up time used by given heating rate must be reached.Can also be according to warming temperature and heating Time, when obtaining putting given heat time heating time, each measurement point warming temperature.Calibration curve collection of illustrative plates can include representing heating rate And the calibration curve of corresponding relation between flow rate;Represent that between heating-up time and flow rate, the demarcation of corresponding relation is bent Line;And/or represent the calibration curve of corresponding relation between warming temperature and flow rate.By carrying out in calibration curve collection of illustrative plates Corresponding lookup just can get each flow rate measuring point.
In one embodiment, the method for the present invention may also include that the warming temperature and corresponding adding measuring point according to each The heat time determines heating rate distribution curve;The position of heating rate generation Spline smoothing is searched in heating rate distribution curve Putting, the position that will heat up speed generation Spline smoothing is defined as down-hole separating surface.
Hereinafter the theoretical principle of technical scheme institute foundation in the present invention is illustrated.
Its temperature can be made when cryogen flows through high temp objects surface to reduce, and surface temperature and flow rate meet certain pass System, this relation can obtain under the equilibrium state of long-time heating, and along with the reduction of flow, equilibration time can exponentially increase Long.Further, being powered by hot water radiation wire in composite cable after heating, composite cable surface temperature can steeply rise, recombination line The fluid flow through around cable can take away heat, and therefore composite cable heating rate can be the most slack-off, as shown in Figure 3.
For composite cable, its cross-sectional diameter is far smaller than its length, and heater wire armour mechanical engagement outer with metal is tight Contact, and contacted by the outer armour of thermostable heat-conductive medium and metal, its internal thermal conduction resistance is much smaller than its surface heat exchanging thermal resistance, Therefore the temperature within composite cable can be considered as unanimously.
Heat-balance differential equation in composite cable unit length is as follows:
A ρ c d t d τ + h P ( t - t f ) - I 2 R = 0
Wherein, A is composite cable sectional area, and ρ is composite cable density, and c is composite cable specific heat, and t is temperature, when τ is Between, h is the coefficient of heat transfer between composite cable outer wall and fluid, and P is composite cable outer wall girth, and I is to apply on composite cable Electric current, R is unit resistance.
Introduce Excess temperature θ=t-tf, available heating rate relational expression.
d θ d τ = I 2 R A c ρ c exp ( - h P τ A c ρ c )
Being up to the given time used by heating rate is designated as heating-up time τ,
τ=f (h) C0
Owing to plunderring fluid temperature (F.T.) and speed is relevant except coefficient of heat transfer h is vertical in addition to composite cable, other parameters are all compound The physical parameter of cable.
Nu=CRen Prm
τ = C 1 ( μ ρ L v ) n ( λ μc p ) m = C ( P , T ) v n
Wherein, L is characteristic length, and Nu is Reynolds number, and Re is Reynolds number, and Pr is Prandtl number, and λ is flow thermal conductivity coefficient, μ It is fluid kinematic viscosity, cpIt it is fluid ratio thermal capacitance.
As shown in Figure 4, corresponding one gives heating rate, the heating-up time difference that different flow speed is corresponding, flow rate The biggest required heating-up time is the shortest;When heat time heating time is identical, flow rate the biggest composite cable surface temperature is the lowest.
On the other hand, for oil, gas well or reservoir paintpot, there is air water, profit, gas and oil separating surface.Underground composite cable It is immersed in two media, relies on the specific heat capacity of different medium, density, heat conductivity different, the recombination line when heat time heating time is identical Cable surface there will be different heating rates, can judge dielectric interface according to heating rate change.Before resistive conductor heating, two Plant medium local environment temperature identical, when composite cable surface temperature can rise after heating, around composite cable, wrap up in attached stream simultaneously Knowing from experience and take away composite cable surface portion heat by free convection, its heating rate can be the most slack-off.Due to different medium Specific heat capacity, density, heat conductivity, fluid viscosity are different, and its coefficient of heat transfer is the most different.
For this composite cable, its cross-sectional diameter is far smaller than its length, and heater wire armour mechanical engagement outer with metal Being in close contact and contact with by the outer armour of thermostable heat-conductive medium and metal, its internal thermal conduction resistance is much smaller than its surface heat exchanging warm Resistance, can be considered as the temperature within composite cable unanimously.
Heat-balance differential equation in composite cable unit length is as follows:
A ρ c d t d τ + h P ( t - t f ) - I 2 R = 0
Wherein, A is composite cable sectional area, and ρ is composite cable density, and c is composite cable specific heat, and t is temperature, when τ is Between, h is the coefficient of heat transfer between composite cable outer wall and fluid, and P is composite cable outer wall girth, and I is to apply on composite cable Electric current, R is unit resistance.
Introduce Excess temperature θ=t-tf, available heating rate relational expression.
d θ d τ = I 2 R A c ρ c exp ( - h P τ A c ρ c )
When the physical parameter of composite cable is it is known that heat time heating time is identical, the coefficient of heat transfer of fluid is the biggest, the liter of composite cable Temperature speed is the lowest.
Nu=CGrn Prn
h = g n α V n Δt n ρ f 2 n L 3 n - 1 c p n λ 1 - n μ
In formula, L is characteristic length, and Nu is Reynolds number, and Gr is grashof number, and Pr is Prandtl number.λ is fluid heat conduction system Number, αVIt is change in volume coefficient, ρfBeing fluid density, μ is fluid kinematic viscosity, cpIt it is fluid ratio thermal capacitance.
Choose water at normal temperature, diesel oil, the physical parameter of air bring above-mentioned formula into, and the coefficient of heat transfer that can obtain water is more than The coefficient of heat transfer of oil, the coefficient of heat transfer of diesel oil is more than the coefficient of heat transfer of air.For gas and oil separating surface, in identical heat time heating time Under, composite cable aerial part heating rate is big, and the part heating rate in oil is little, and the position of speed sudden change is i.e. For gas and oil separating surface.For oil water surface, under identical heat time heating time, composite cable part heating rate in oil is big, And part heating rate in water is little, the position of speed sudden change is oil water surface, as shown in Figure 5.
Fig. 6 is the schematic diagram of the scene of the measurement of the flow rate of downhole fluid according to an embodiment of the invention;Fig. 7 is The schematic diagram of the system of the measurement of the flow rate of downhole fluid according to an embodiment of the invention.Measurement system includes aboveground electricity Source device, light source, demodulated equipment, operating platform, underground survey equipment.
Power-supply device provides effective current for underground survey equipment, for composite cable interior-heat resistance heating;Also it is aboveground Electrical equipment provides electric power.Light source, under the triggering of synchronous control unit, produces a high-power smooth arteries and veins by laser instrument Punching, light pulse enters sensing optic cable, carries the composition dorsad in the spontaneous Raman scattering light of temperature information along former in sensing optic cable Road returns, by being divided into two-beam after beam splitter, under connect the wave filter of two different centre wavelengths, correspondence leaches stokes light And anti-Stokes light, after photodetector is converted into the signal of telecommunication, send into data acquisition and procession unit.Demodulated equipment is number According to gathering and processing unit, include signal of telecommunication amplification, denoising, demodulating algorithm, output temperature value.Operating platform monitoring down-hole is surveyed Amount data and aboveground all appts equipment working state, the operation of all devices and stopping in control system.Aboveground measurement equipment By being arranged on the effusion meter (turbine flowmeter or other conventional flow meters) at well head, measure the total output of well.Underground survey Equipment can comprise the composite cable of one or more temperature measuring optical cable and hot water radiation wire, can measure composite cable wall surface temperature.Compound The structure of cable is as in figure 2 it is shown, repeat no more.
When measuring, composite cable is positioned in oil, gas well as downhole flow distribution measurement apparatus.Composite cable In heater wire be connected with aboveground power-supply system, can heat cable when energized, promote cable temperature.Optical fiber in composite cable Also it is temperature signal under optical pickocff production wells as optical signal transmission passage simultaneously.The downhole temperature information gathered is by ground Upper thread cable is transferred in demodulated equipment, and demodulated equipment passes through optical-electrical converter, converts optical signal into the signal of telecommunication, counts subsequently Mould is changed, and the digital signal after conversion enters operating platform, carries out computing by distributed temperature signal processing.Distributed Incoming temperature-the discharge model of data after processes temperature signal process computing finally calculates, draws Underground Distributed temperature The information such as degree, heating-up time, heating rate, flow.The control system of operating platform can control the opening and closing of other equipment, And to the control of electric current, voltage in power-supply system.
In the present embodiment, calibration curve collection of illustrative plates acceptance of the bid determine curve can by under the most various environment measure Obtain.Calibration curve collection of illustrative plates is included under various environment under this environment of expression recorded between variations in temperature parameter and flow rate The calibration curve of corresponding relation;Determined by described basis, the value of consult volume of variations in temperature parameter finds in calibration curve collection of illustrative plates It is right that each flow rate measuring some correspondence comprises the steps that the environment parameter value according to subsurface environment determines in calibration curve collection of illustrative plates The calibration curve answered;According to corresponding to each measure point determined by variations in temperature parameter value of consult volume determined by demarcate song Line finds each and measures the flow rate that point is corresponding.
For example, it is possible in laboratory environments composite cable to be applied given electrical power, carry out different fluid temperature, pressure Measurement under power, different flow speed, it is thus achieved that the wall of composite cable at a temperature of different pressures, different fluid, flow rate And the calibration curve of relation between warming temperature, heating-up time and/or heating rate, the calibration curve composition under various environment should The calibration curve collection of illustrative plates of model composite cable.
When flow rate on the spot is measured, apply identical electrical power to optical cable, during according to the warming temperature recorded and heating Between can obtain in actual environment each warming temperature measuring point, heating-up time or heating rate.According in actual environment Environment parameter value, such as fluid temperature (F.T.), pressure etc., measure in the lab in gained calibration curve collection of illustrative plates and select to meet actual rings The calibration curve in border.Utilize gained warming temperature, heating-up time or heating rate to make a look up in calibration curve, draw each Measure the flow rate of the fluid of point.
Such as, when carrying out actual measurement, in well that composite cable is hung down or be strapped on coiled tubing and place into down-hole, Composite cable head end is made to be arranged into the bottom (well tail end) of well.When downhole temperature rate of change is less than 0.1 DEG C/min, start Aboveground power-supply device is powered to hot water radiation wire in composite cable.The composite cable wall that after record power supply, underground composite cable is measured Temperature and corresponding heat time heating time.Wall surface temperature and the corresponding heat time heating time of the composite cable according to record obtain warming temperature, rise Temperature time or heating rate.In calibration curve collection of illustrative plates, select the calibration curve corresponding to actual environment, look in calibration curve Find each flow rate measuring point, it is thus achieved that overall length flow rate distribution in well.
On the other hand, laboratory is likely not to have the demarcation corresponding with actual environment in measurement gained calibration curve collection of illustrative plates Curve.In such a case, it is possible to obtain calibration curve in the following way.Described method may also include that and receives the well measured Warming temperature at mouth flow rate and down-hole maximum stream flow speed, the heat time heating time that record is corresponding, receives the bottom measured The warming temperature at place, the heat time heating time that record is corresponding;Intensification temperature at flow rate according to well head, down-hole maximum stream flow speed The heat time heating time of degree and correspondence determines corresponding relation between maximum stream flow speed and variations in temperature parameter;By the flow speed at bottom Rate is set as preset value, according to determining minimum discharge speed the heat time heating time of the flow rate at bottom, warming temperature and correspondence Corresponding relation between rate and variations in temperature parameter;According to corresponding relation and minimum discharge between maximum stream flow speed and variations in temperature parameter Calibration curve during corresponding relation simulates calibration curve collection of illustrative plates between speed and variations in temperature parameter.
Further, warming temperature at the described flow rate according to well head, down-hole maximum stream flow speed and correspondence Determine that between maximum stream flow speed and variations in temperature parameter, corresponding relation includes heat time heating time: according to the environment parameter value of well head environment With the environment parameter value of environment at the maximum stream flow speed of down-hole, the flow rate of well head is converted to maximum stream flow speed.
Such as, first, under certain current value, measure by composite cable wall surface temperature and right at maximum stream flow speed in well logging The heat time heating time answered.In ground and the overhead nearest total flow that flow is this well between payzone, i.e. to should the maximum of well Flow rate, is shown in Fig. 6.Maximum stream flow speed is identical with well head flow rate, can be by being arranged on the turbine flowmeter of well head (or other conventional flow meters) are measured and are obtained, and the warming temperature that now foundation maximum stream flow flow rate is corresponding is (at maximum stream flow speed The wall surface temperature of composite cable) and maximum stream flow speed can mark the right endpoint of calibration curve.Or, according to maximum stream flow speed At rate, composite cable wall surface temperature and corresponding heat time heating time obtain the heating-up time of corresponding given heating rate, according to this intensification Time and maximum stream flow speed can remember the right endpoint calibration curve, see Fig. 8.The temperature, pressure environment of at well head and down-hole is not With, the maximum stream flow rate value of down-hole can be obtained by physical properties of fluids parameters revision.
Then, it is determined that by zero delivery ramp temperature (composite cable wall surface temperature) and correspondence in well logging under this current value Heat time heating time.Composite cable one end is laid in bottom, it is to avoid the interference that composite cable is flowed by borehole fluid, can recognize It is 0 for the flow rate around bottom composite cable.Warming temperature according to 0 flow flow rate and the bottom of measurement can labelling Go out the left end point of calibration curve.Or, composite cable wall surface temperature and corresponding heat time heating time according to bottom obtain correspondence The heating-up time of given heating rate, the left end point calibration curve can be remembered according to this heating-up time and 0 flow rate, see Fig. 8.
For Laminar Flow, when fluid flows through static heater surface, the orderly laminar flow of fluid, adjacent interlayer is without stream Dynamic, to fluid center, transmission relies primarily on molecule diffusion motion thermal conduction mechanism to wall heat.This is with static fluid inwall fever sensation of the face Measure close to surrounding fluid diffusion mechanism.And Turbulence Flow, fluid random motion, destroy original laminar flow, energy Strengthen with momentum transmission.Therefore the warming temperature of zero delivery speed can be designated as the minimum corresponding stream of turbulent Reynolds number with the heating-up time Warming temperature during amount speed and heating-up time, the method has been confirmed.Can be obtained by above-mentioned two point To flow rate and warming temperature or the calibration curve of heating-up time.Therefore, once the heating-up time of zero delivery in acquisition well The heating-up time corresponding with well head total flow, i.e. can determine that the flow rate-heating-up time of measured well marks by two-point method Determine curve, see solid line in Fig. 8, and then obtain flow rate value corresponding to different heating-up time.Use the method can pass through to demarcate Curve is each zone flow rate value in obtaining this measurement well.Visible by experiment, use above-mentioned two-point method to be calculated flow speed Rate value, the deviation of data obtained with experiment, within 10%, is shown in Fig. 8.
