Description

Self-adaptive pre-filled ceramsite sand control screen pipe and self-adaptive method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a self-adaptive pre-filled ceramsite sand control screen pipe and a self-adaptive method, belonging to the technical field of underground sand control completion tools for oil and gas exploitation.
Background
Loose sandstone oil and gas reservoirs in China and the world are widely distributed, and reserves and yield of the loose sandstone oil and gas reservoirs are dominant at present. One of the major troublesome problems faced in the exploitation of unconsolidated sandstone oil and gas reservoirs is sand production from oil and gas wells, which causes damage to production equipment and a substantial reduction in production. In recent years, experimental development and exploitation of natural gas hydrate reserves at home and abroad are also gradually carried out. In the natural gas hydrate reservoir, most of the cementing materials of rock particles of the reservoir are hydrates, and a great amount of sand is produced due to the loss of the cementing effect after the reservoir is mined and decomposed. For the sand production problem of the oil and gas reservoir, sand prevention measures are required to be taken for normal exploitation; for the fine sand (the grain size is 50 mu m) of the loose sandstone reservoir of petroleum and natural gas, especially for the ultra-fine sand (the grain size reaches 10-15 mu m) of the hydrate reservoir of natural gas, the sand control is very difficult at present.
Among the sand control methods, gravel pack type and independent mechanical screen type sand control methods are dominant. The gravel filling sand prevention is to fill quartz sand or ceramsite in a mechanical sieve tube, a sleeve or a shaft annulus and a near well reservoir, and to use a porous medium formed by stacking filling particles to play roles in blocking sand and guiding flow; the independent mechanical screen pipe sand control is that a mechanical screen pipe is hung at the position, right opposite to a production layer, of a well bottom, and the screen pipe allows fluid to pass but can block formation sand, so that the aim of preventing the formation sand from entering a shaft is fulfilled; the sand control process of the mechanical sieve tube is simple in technology and convenient to construct. Mechanical sand screens are key downhole devices in early sand control completions or later sand control. The traditional gravel pack type and independent mechanical sieve tube type sand control cannot meet the production requirement on the comprehensive sand control effect of a natural gas hydrate argillaceous powder fine sand reservoir which has serious sand production, high argillaceous content and small formation sand grain diameter.
The pre-packed gravel sand control screen is an important type of sand control screen and is widely applied to sand control operation of oil wells, gas wells and natural gas hydrate wells. The prior pre-filled sand control screen pipe is characterized in that quartz sand or artificial ceramsite with a certain particle size range is filled between two layers of slots or wires, and the sand control of an independent mechanical screen pipe and the sand control of gravel filling are combined to play a better sand control role. It still has some problems:
(1) a pore structure formed by solid particle materials (quartz sand gravel or artificial ceramsite) pre-filled in the sieve tube is easily adsorbed and blocked by clay mud, fine sand grains, thick oil and the like produced along with fluid in a reservoir; after the sand screen pipe is blocked, the permeability of the medium of the sand screen pipe can be greatly reduced, the yield of an oil-gas well is seriously damaged, the service life of the sand screen pipe is shortened, and the integral sand control effect is poor. Because the pre-filling material is completely fixed and blocked in the existing pre-filling sieve tube, the sieve tube lacks self-cleaning capability, and the circulation capability of the sieve tube is reduced and is difficult to recover after the formation sand invades and blocks.
(2) The pre-packed solid particles typically have a size within a certain range (e.g., 20-40 mesh, 30-60 mesh) and are non-uniform in size. After sand control casting, the pre-filled solid particle material can move under the impact of fluid so as to be arranged and recombined, so that the structure of the pre-filled layer is gradually loosened, the pore throat size is increased, and the sand blocking effect is gradually reduced.
(3) After the pre-filled sieve tube is blocked or the structure is impacted to be loose and lose the sand blocking effect, the sand prevention of the pre-filled sieve tube is failed; the corresponding measure is to pull out the sieve tube and carry out the sand control operation again. Finally, the sand control validity period of the prior pre-filled sieve tube is short, and the sand control cost of the oil-gas well is high.
Chinese patent document CN204827393U is a pre-packed sand control screen pipe, which realizes sand control to an oil well, is particularly suitable for casing sand control construction of a heavy oil thermal recovery highly-deviated well, and can prolong the sand control period. The sand control screen pipe comprises a central pipe and an inner wire winding pipe, wherein the central pipe is provided with a liquid flow hole, the inner wire winding pipe is arranged outside the central pipe, a lower bearing cap and an upper pressing cap are respectively fixed at two ends of the central pipe and used for installing a pre-filling layer and an outer wire winding pipe, a compaction compensation mechanism is arranged between the upper part of the pre-filling layer and the upper pressing cap, the upper end of the outer wire winding pipe is connected with the compaction compensation mechanism through a connecting sleeve, pre-tightening force is applied to the pre-filling layer, and the compaction of the pre-filling layer is ensured; although the pre-filling sand control screen pipe can compress a pre-filling layer, ensure the compaction degree of the pre-filling layer and improve the strength of the pre-filling layer, the position of the lower bearing cap is fixed, only the upper pressing cap can slide in the compensation sleeve to compress the filling layer, the lower bearing cap can only compress downwards by virtue of external force, the self-adaptive adjustment of the device cannot be realized, namely, the self-adjusting function of automatically compensating compaction or retracting according to the condition of the pre-filling layer cannot be realized, and the self-unblocking function and the self-compacting function cannot be realized.

The method for self-unblocking and self-compacting by utilizing the self-adaptive pre-filled ceramsite sand control screen pipe comprises the following steps:
s1: setting springs at two ends of a sand control screen pipe pre-filled ceramsite layer to be in a semi-compressed state; in the normal production process, because the semi-compression state spring has the characteristic of tending to elongation, longitudinal compression acting force is generated on the pre-filled ceramsite layer, when the self-filled ceramsite layer is arranged and recombined under the action of fluid impact to generate a destabilization phenomenon, the longitudinal compression acting force of the spring compacts the pre-filled ceramsite layer, so that the destabilized filling layer is quickly compacted and is maintained in a stable state again, and the self-compaction effect is realized;
s2: after the pore throat of the sand blocking medium of the pre-filled ceramsite layer is blocked by stratum sand, the permeability and the fluidity are both reduced, so that the pressure in the cavity of the pre-filled layer is increased, the increased pressure compression spring retracts, the space of the cavity of the pre-filled layer is increased, under the action of fluid impact, the sand blocking medium of the pre-filled ceramsite layer is unstable, the space of the pore throat is increased, stratum sand particles intruding into the blockage are washed by fluid and carried through the holes of the base pipe to be discharged, and the effects of dredging, blocking self-cleaning and self-unblocking are realized.
The self-plugging removal and self-compaction principle of the self-adaptive pre-filled ceramsite sand control screen pipe is as follows:
1. the self-compaction principle is as follows: and when the sieve tube is assembled, the spring springs at the upper end and the lower end of the pre-filled ceramic particle layer are set to be in a semi-compressed state. In the normal production process, because the spring bullet in the semi-compression state at both ends has the extension characteristic of tendency about in the prefilled haydite layer, can produce the longitudinal compression effect to prefilled haydite layer, be equivalent to prefilled haydite layer by the compaction. And once the pre-filled ceramsite layer is arranged and recombined under the action of fluid impact to generate a destabilization phenomenon, the destabilized filling layer can be quickly compacted and can be maintained in a stable state again under the compaction action of the spring. Fig. 3 illustrates the above process and the self-compaction principle.
2. The self-unblocking principle is as follows: under the normal circulation condition of the sieve tube, the pressure in the cavity of the sieve tube prefill layer is lower; when the pore throat of the sieve tube prefilled ceramsite sand-blocking medium is blocked by stratum sand, the permeability and the fluidity of the sieve tube prefilled ceramsite sand-blocking medium are reduced, and the pressure is caused to rise in the containing cavity of the prefilled layer. The increased pressure can compress the spring to retract, so that the space of the cavity of the pre-filling layer is enlarged; under the action of fluid impact, the pre-filled ceramsite particles in the enlarged space are unstable and the pore throat space is enlarged; under the condition, sand particles intruding into the blocked stratum can be flushed by fluid and carried through the holes of the base pipe to be discharged, so that the effects of dredging, self-cleaning and self-unblocking are achieved. Once the blockage is relieved and the flow is recovered, the pressure in the cavity of the pre-filling layer is reduced to a normal level, and the spring returns to the original semi-compressed state, so that the ceramsite in the pre-filling layer returns to the original compacted state. Until finally the sand stabilizing bridge frame is formed on the outer part of the screen pipe, and the inner part of the screen pipe is always kept unblocked. Fig. 4 shows the above process and the self-unblocking principle.
Aiming at the self-plugging-removing principle and the sieve tube structure of the sieve tube, the invention needs to be specially strengthened and explained as follows: under normal conditions, the sand blocking process of the sieve tube is as follows: in the early stage of screen sand control production, the fine formation sand particles enter the inside of the screen to produce invasion blocking, and meanwhile, the coarse formation sand particles are bridged outside the screen until a stable bridge outside the screen is formed (fig. 4 d). The stratum sand bridge outside the screen pipe is a natural phenomenon and also a basic principle and a necessity of the screen pipe for controlling the sand. However, plugging inside the screen during the formation of the bridge outside the screen is undesirable because the plug permeability is extremely low, which can significantly reduce the well productivity. The self-plugging-removing function of the sieve tube provided by the invention is just to remove the plugging of the inside of the sieve tube medium in the process.
The thickness and the particle size of the pre-filled ceramsite layer are preferably obtained in a sand blocking simulation experiment by simulating a large number of conventional oil and gas reservoirs and various particle size stratum sands of hydrate reservoirs by an inventor, so that each structural parameter of the pre-filled sand control screen pipe can adapt to the geological and production conditions of conventional oil and gas and natural gas hydrate argillaceous silty fine sand reservoirs, the high sand blocking performance and the high circulation performance can be considered in the sand control process, after the screen pipe is blocked, a blocking object is removed by a self-cleaning mechanism to recover the circulation performance of the screen pipe, the effective blocking and the efficient oil and gas flow guiding of argillaceous silty fine sands are realized, and meanwhile, the stability of the pre-filled layer can be effectively protected by an outer protection cover and an outer blocking screen net, and the risk of erosion damage is reduced.
Aiming at the equal-diameter ceramsite filling, the ceramsite with a certain particle size range is selected and filled during actual processing and manufacturing, so that the processing and screening errors are considered, the processing and manufacturing are facilitated, and the cost is reduced. Because in field practice it is difficult and costly to screen solid particles of perfectly equal diameter.
Even so, the packed particle size range according to the present invention is narrow and very close to the desired isodiametric particle size. Taking the equal diameter grain diameter of 0.6mm as an example, the porcelain granules with the grain diameter of 0.55-0.65mm are allowed to be filled for the convenience of processing and manufacturing and cost reduction. For comparison, the particle size range of the ceramsite corresponding to the equivalent average particle size of 0.6mm in the existing prepacked sieve tube is 0.4-0.8 mm. Such a large particle size range can result in large variations in pore throat structure and sand retention accuracy after particle destabilization and reorganization.
The invention has the following technical characteristics and advantages:
1. the sand control screen pipe is provided with a self-adapting adjusting mechanism, and the self-adapting adjusting mechanism comprises a spring, a spring fixing base, an inner side sliding guide rail and an outer side sliding guide rail; the spring mechanism in the original semi-compression state has the characteristic of tending to extend, and can generate the longitudinal compaction effect on the pre-filled ceramsite layer. Once the pre-filled ceramsite layer is arranged and recombined under the action of fluid impact to generate a destabilization phenomenon, the destabilized filling layer can be quickly compacted and can be maintained in a stable state again through the compaction action of the spring. Compared with the conventional pre-filled sieve tube, the pre-filled ceramsite has the advantages that the pre-filled ceramsite can be kept in a compact filling state for a long time, stable sand blocking precision and sand blocking effect are kept, and the sand prevention validity period of the pre-filled sieve tube is prolonged.
2. The sand control screen pipe is provided with a self-adaptive adjusting mechanism and has a self-unblocking function. When the sieve tube prefilled ceramsite sand blocking medium is blocked, the pressure in the filling containing cavity can be increased due to poor pressure, and the sealing end of the driving spring compresses the spring, so that the containing cavity space of the prefilled layer is enlarged; the pre-filled ceramsite particles are unstable, and the pore throat space is enlarged; the sand particles intruding into the blocked stratum can be flushed by fluid and carried through the holes of the base pipe to be discharged, so that the effects of dredging, self-cleaning and self-unblocking are achieved. Once the blockage is relieved, the pressure is reduced, and the ceramsite in the pre-filling layer can be restored to the original compaction state under the action of the spring. Compared with the conventional pre-filled sieve tube, the self-plugging-removing and self-recovering sieve tube has the advantages that the pre-filled ceramsite can be prevented from being excessively plugged through the self-plugging-removing and self-recovering functions, the good circulation performance of the sand blocking medium layer is kept, the productivity of an oil-gas well is kept, the sand prevention validity period of the pre-filled sieve tube is prolonged, and the overall sand prevention production effect is improved.
3. The pre-filled ceramsite layer of the sand control screen pipe is the constant-diameter artificial ceramsite, so that the pore throat size after final compaction is stable no matter how the ceramsite particles are unstable and arranged and recombined in the self-plugging removal and self-compaction processes of the screen pipe, and the stable liquidity and the sand blocking effect are ensured. Compared with the traditional pre-filled sieve tube filled with solid particles with larger particle size range, the filling of the invention can better ensure stable sand blocking effect and sand blocking precision, avoid the change and reduction of sand blocking capability after the instability recombination of the filling layer and has better comprehensive sand prevention effect.
4. The design method of the grain diameter and the thickness of the pre-filled ceramsite layer of the sand control screen pipe recommends reasonable grain diameter and filling thickness of the pre-filled ceramsite without passing through production conditions and stratum sand design. The recommended design parameters are verified based on experimental evaluation, and the sand control effect of the self-adaptive pre-filled ceramsite sand control screen pipe provided by the invention under different conditions is ensured.
