Background
The depressurization trial production method is considered to be the mainstream technology of hydrate trial production, but in the depressurization trial production process, reservoir compaction and settlement can occur in a production well. For example, in the trial production in the sea area of the sea chest of south Japan, the measurement of the deformation of the sea bottom in a certain year proves that the top of the production well is settled in the order of centimeters after the pressure reduction trial production for a plurality of days, and a large amount of sand is produced in the trial production process.
Compared with the gas production application of the conventional oil and gas well, the service life of the sand control screen pipe applied to trial production of hydrate in the sea is far short of the original normal life cycle. Different from the conventional oil gas, the reservoir layer can generate a settlement compaction effect in the process of reducing pressure, trial production and gas production of the marine hydrate sedimentary deposit, so that settlement compaction stress is generated. This settling compaction stress can create frictional stresses between the production casing and the contact layer. Due to the sedimentation and compaction of the reservoir, the casing shoe in the pilot production equipment is vertically stretched downwards, so that tensile stress is generated inside and around the casing shoe. Therefore, in the hydrate depressurization pilot production process, the influence of the compaction and sedimentation of the reservoir on the sand control screen pipe in the pilot production process is monitored in real time, and long-term safe pilot production is realized.

That is, the upper end of the first signal line 401 is branched to form two paths, one path is directly connected with the outside, and the other path is connected with the outside through the submersible electric pump 20.
The upper completion pipe string stops continuously lowering after the upper completion pipe string is lowered to the designed fixed depth, and the single-action directional plug-in communication assembly at the moment may not be accurately lowered to the preset specified depth, so that the calculation error and the actual construction error need to be balanced, and the errors are balanced through the telescopic oil pipe, so that the wet plug male end 402 and the wet plug female end 601 can be accurately butted.

Synchronously, the radial compressive stress change of the reservoir hydrate to the sand control screen pipe caused by the pilot production operation is obtained through the real-time monitoring of the radial compressive stress measuring device 802. The measured longitudinal settlement stress and radial compressive stress data are transmitted out through the first signal pipeline 401, the second signal pipeline 602 and the third signal pipeline 801, and therefore the compaction settlement stress is measured in real time in the hydrate pilot production process.
