Natural gamma energy spectrum calibration device while drilling
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of radioactive measurement equipment, in particular to a calibration device for a natural gamma energy spectrum while drilling.
Background
With the continuous increase of highly deviated wells and horizontal wells, the traditional logging method cannot meet the construction requirement, so that the logging-while-drilling technology suitable for the horizontal wells is rapidly developed. The logging while drilling technology is very widely applied abroad, and the research of logging while drilling in China starts relatively late and is seriously lagged behind developed countries. The gamma-ray energy spectrum logging instrument while drilling is mainly used for judging the lithology of strata in the drilling construction of directional wells and horizontal wells, is an essential device in logging-while-drilling series instruments, and has very wide application prospect.
Natural gamma-ray spectral logging is a logging method for recording natural gamma-rays according to different energy ranges. Because most of the gamma rays emitted by the formation are generated by decay of three radioactive isotopes, namely potassium, thorium and uranium, natural gamma-ray spectroscopy logging can give the content of potassium, thorium and uranium in the formation. These data are useful for accurately determining the shale content of the reservoir, analyzing the depositional environment and oil production conditions, and demarcating lithologies. The log of the natural gamma energy spectrum is in units of API.
No matter a traditional cable natural gamma spectrum instrument or a natural gamma spectrum instrument while drilling, accurate natural gamma logging information needs to be obtained, and the natural gamma logging instrument needs to be regularly calibrated in the field logging application process. The calibration is the calibration process of the gamma-ray spectrum logging instrument.
The existing natural gamma energy spectrum calibration device which is commonly used mainly comprises yellow wrapping cloth, a calibration frame, calibration tiles and other equipment. Whether the yellow wrapping cloth, the scale rack or the scale tile is internally provided with a mixed medium, and three radioactive mineral elements of potassium, uranium and thorium are uniformly distributed in the mixed medium. In the calibration verification process, a natural gamma-ray spectroscopy logging-while-drilling instrument is used for measuring the content proportion of three mineral elements, namely potassium, uranium and thorium, in the calibration device, and the content proportion is compared with the standard proportion marked by the graduator, so that the relevant parameters of the instrument are finally determined.
The existing scale device has the following defects:
1. the existing calibration device (yellow wrapping cloth, a calibration frame and calibration tiles) is mainly designed and applied to the traditional cable natural gamma energy spectrum instrument and is not completely suitable for a natural gamma energy spectrum logging-while-drilling instrument.
2. The content of potassium, uranium and thorium elements in the existing calibration device (yellow wrapping cloth, a calibration frame and a calibration tile) is low, the peak values of potassium, uranium and thorium in a curve measured by an instrument in the calibration process are not obvious, and particularly the uranium value is low, so that the calibration effect is influenced;
3. the existing scale devices (yellow cloth, scale frame and scale tile) are generally small and are easily interfered by external environmental factors;
4. the existing scale device (yellow cloth, scale frame and scale tile) has no shielding protection measures, uranium and thorium elements in the scale device belong to radioactive elements, and the scale device has certain harm to operators.
