Description

Horizontal well sectional setting type flow metering water exploration pipe column and water exploration method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas production in oil and gas fields, in particular to a horizontal well sectional setting type flow metering water finding pipe column and a water finding method thereof.
Background
Horizontal wells are special wells having a maximum well deviation angle of up to or near 90 (typically no less than 86) and maintaining a horizontal well section of a certain length in the zone of interest. The horizontal well is suitable for thin oil-gas reservoirs or fractured oil-gas reservoirs and aims to increase the exposed area of the oil-gas reservoirs. In the production process of the horizontal well, if the oil well produces water, a water outlet layer needs to be accurately detected. At present, the water exploration of the horizontal well mainly uses a water exploration pipe column, and a packing cup packer can be selectively used for the water exploration pipe column to explore water in a layered mode. The key part of the packing cup packer is a conical packing cup which is formed by vulcanizing rubber on a metal framework, the oil sleeve annulus is sealed by interference of the packing cup and the inner wall of the production casing, and the packing cup expands the sealed annulus under the action of pressure difference in the well, so that the packing cup packer can only bear large pressure difference in one direction.
The existing water exploration pipe column has the following defects:
1. the diameter of a packing cup packer of the existing water finding pipe column is slightly larger than the inner diameter of a production casing pipe, and because the packing cup can not retract, the packing cup can only be dragged into a horizontal section in a well, so that the damage to the sealing effect and the service life of the packing cup is great, and the efficiency of layered water finding is also influenced. And because some high-water-cut horizontal wells are often communicated with the channeling of the corresponding water injection well, and the wellhead of the high-water-cut horizontal well is self-sprayed (sleeved back), the cup packer cannot be put into the underground, if a bidirectional slip packer is selected, the horizontal section of the horizontal well is easy to have difficulty in deblocking, and the construction process is complex.
2. Because the underground fluid of the non-flowing well is subjected to low formation pressure and cannot automatically rise to the ground, the conventional water exploration pipe column is only suitable for exploring water in a high-water-content flowing (casing-returning) horizontal well, and low-risk and high-efficiency water exploration cannot be realized for a non-flowing production well.
Therefore, the sectional seating-sealing type flow metering water exploration pipe column for the horizontal well and the water exploration method thereof are needed to be provided, wherein the sectional seating-sealing type flow metering water exploration pipe column is convenient to construct and can realize water exploration for a non-flowing well.
