Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an annular barrier for being expanded in an annulus between a well tubular structure and a wall of the borehole downhole for isolating a first zone from a second zone in the annulus between the well tubular structure and the wall of the borehole, the annulus having an annulus pressure.
  • the invention also relates to a downhole system, and finally the present invention relates to a drilling method for drilling past a low pressure zone in a formation.
  • the drilling head When drilling a new borehole or a lateral in an existing well, the drilling head may drill into a low pressure zone, resulting in a loss of pressure.
  • the mud entered into the hole while drilling to prevent blowout is lost in the low pressure zone, and there will be a substantial risk of a blowout if the drilling is continued.
  • Cementing and thus sealing part of the annulus above the low pressure zone are also impossible, since the injected cement is lost as it disappears into the low pressure zone, and then this partly drilled borehole is abandoned and plugged from above and a new well is drilled.
  • Expanding and thereby setting an annular barrier in such low pressure zone by pressurising the inside of the well tubular structure opposite the annular barrier may not be successful. This is due to the fact that the expansion opening in the well tubular structure needs to be closed off after expansion, and the prior art closing mechanisms either close before the annular barrier is expanded or do not close at all due to the lack of pressure in the annulus.
  • the prior art closing mechanisms rely on the annulus pressure to shift the valve position and close the expansion opening and open fluid communication to the annulus, and when the annulus pressure suddenly becomes so low as is the case in the low pressure zone, the pressure in the annulus cannot build up to a level high enough to shift the position of the closing mechanism which is normally done when equalisation of the pressure between the annulus and the inside of the annular barrier is required.
  • closing mechanism closes before the expansion has ended as some closing mechanisms rely on a shear pin to brake after expansion, and since such shear pin is set to a differential pressure and not an absolute pressure, and the shear pin is set to brake when the pressure inside the well tubular structure is above a predetermined expansion pressure, the shear pin may brake in the initial phase of the expansion process when the annulus pressure is very low, creating a high pressure difference across the shear pin so that it will shear too early and close the expansion opening before the expansion is even started.
  • annular barrier for being expanded in an annulus between a well tubular structure and a wall of the borehole downhole for isolating a first zone from a second zone in the annulus between the well tubular structure and the wall of the borehole, the annulus having an annulus pressure, comprising:
  • first valve has a first position allowing fluid communication between the inside of the tubular part and the second valve to expand the expandable sleeve, and a second position providing fluid communication between the annular space and the annulus and closing the fluid communication between the inside of the tubular part and the annular space by means of a pressure difference between the inside and the annular space independently of the annulus pressure.
  • the annular barrier By having a first valve shifting position by means of the pressure difference between the inside and the annular space independently of the annulus pressure, the annular barrier is able to be fully expanded also in or above a low pressure zone.
  • the closing of the expansion opening and thus the closing of fluid communication to the inside of the well tubular structure is thus also performed independently of the annulus pressure, and thus unintentional closing before or during expansion is prevented. Further, the situation in which the expansion opening is not closed at all in the event of low pressure in the annulus is also avoided.
  • the first valve may shift from the first position to the second position when the space pressure is higher than the inside pressure by decreasing the inside pressure and using the space pressure to shift position
  • the first valve may comprise a chamber and a piston dividing the chamber into a first and a second chamber section and the piston may be movable within the chamber to shift position.
  • the first valve may have a first aperture being in fluid communication with the inside, a second aperture being in fluid communication with the second valve, a third aperture being in fluid communication with the annular space and a fourth aperture being in fluid communication with the annulus, and in the first position the first aperture may be in fluid communication with the second aperture, and in the second position the third aperture may be in fluid communication with the fourth aperture.
  • the piston may comprise a fluid channel providing fluid communication between the third aperture and the second chamber section in the first position.
  • the piston mentioned above may have a first end face facing the first chamber section and a second piston face facing the second chamber section.
  • the fluid channel may provide fluid communication between the space and the second chamber section in the first position so that the space pressure may act on the second end face of the piston.
  • the pressure difference between the first chamber section and the second chamber section may move the piston to shift position of the first valve.
  • the first end face may have an outer diameter being substantially equal to an outer diameter of the second end face.
  • the outer diameter of the first end face and second end face may correspond to an inner diameter of the chamber.
  • the piston may have a recess providing fluid communication between the third and fourth apertures in the second position.
  • the recess may be annular.
  • the piston may have sealing elements.
  • the second valve may be a ball valve or a check valve.
  • the first valve may comprise a shear pin extending into the piston to maintain the piston in the first position until a predetermined pressure difference is reached.
  • the annular barrier according to the present invention may further comprise an anti-collapsing unit comprising an element movable at least between a first position and a second position, the anti-collapsing unit having a first port which is in fluid communication with the first zone of the annulus, and a second port which is in fluid communication with the second zone of the annulus, and the anti-collapsing unit having a third port which is in fluid communication with the annular space, and in the first position, the first port may be in fluid communication with the third port, equalising the pressure of the first zone with the space pressure, and in the second position, the second port may be in fluid communication with the third port, equalising the pressure of the second zone with the space pressure.
  • the anti-collapsing unit may comprise a shuttle valve and the element may be comprised in the shuttle valve.
  • the annular barrier according to the invention may furthermore comprise a locking element adapted to mechanically lock the piston when the piston is in the closed position, blocking the first opening.
  • the locking element may be configured to move at least partly radially outwards or inwards upon movement of the piston away from the first position to prevent the piston from returning to the first position of the piston.
  • the locking element may permanently lock the piston in a closed position.
  • shear pin may extend through the locking element and the piston.
  • the annular barrier according to the present invention may also comprise a cement port or a fracturing port.
  • the invention also relates to a downhole system for completing a well in a formation having layers of varying pressures, comprising:
  • the well tubular structure may be a drilling liner connected with a drilling head in a first end.
  • the annular barrier may be arranged closer to the first end than a second end of the well tubular structure.
  • the well tubular structure may be a production casing.
  • the present invention relates to a drilling method for drilling past a low pressure zone in a formation, comprising the steps of:
  • the drilling method mentioned above may further comprise the step of equalising the pressure between the annulus and the annular space.
  • the drilling method may comprise the step of providing cement above the annular barrier in an annulus between the casing and a wall of the borehole.
  • drilling method described above may further comprise the steps of:
  • Fig. 1 shows an annular barrier 1 which has been expanded in an annulus 2 between a well tubular structure 3 and a wall 4 of a borehole 5 downhole for isolating a first zone 101 from a second zone 102 in the annulus between the well tubular structure and the wall of the borehole.
  • the annular barrier 1 comprises a tubular part 6 mounted as part of the well tubular structure and comprises an opening 7 and an inside 8 with an inside pressure.
  • the annular barrier comprises an expandable sleeve 9 surrounding the tubular part and having an inner face 10 facing the tubular part and an outer face 11 facing the wall 4 of the well tubular structure.
  • Each end 12 of the expandable sleeve 9 is connected with the tubular part forming an annular space 14 between the inner face of the expandable sleeve and the tubular part.
  • the annular barrier further comprises a valve system 15 comprising a first valve 16 and a second valve 17.
  • the second valve 17 allows pressurised fluid into the annular space 14 to expand the expandable sleeve 9 and prevents the fluid from flowing from the annular space 14 to the inside 8 of the tubular part 6.
  • the first valve 16 has a first position allowing fluid communication between the inside of the tubular part and the second valve 17 to expand the expandable sleeve 9, and has a second position providing fluid communication between the annular space 14 and the annulus 2 and closing the fluid communication between the inside of the tubular part 6 and the annular space by means of a pressure difference between the inside and the annular space independently of the annulus pressure.
  • the inside pressure of the tubular part is greater than the annulus pressure, but if the pressure in the annulus is very low, such as a low pressure zone in the formation where loss of pressure has occurred, the position of the first valve 16 can still be shifted by decreasing the inside pressure and using the space pressure to shift from the first position to the second position.
  • the annular barrier can therefore be expanded and the first valve can subsequently be shifted from the expansion position to the second position where the pressure in the annular space and the annulus can be equalised and the fluid communication to the inside of the tubular part has been shut off.
  • the space pressure in the annular space is thus used to shift position of the first valve.
  • the expandable sleeve is connected to the tubular part by means of connection parts 18, and the valve system 15 is fluidly connected to the connection part 18 by means of a first tube 21, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 .
  • the opening 7 in the tubular part 6 is arranged opposite a screen 19, so that the fluid during expansion flows through the opening 7 through the screen 19 into the valve system 15 through a second tube 22 and into the annular space 14 through the first tube 21, as shown in Fig. 1 .
  • the fluid flows through the screen in through a third tube 23 (shown in Fig. 2 ) past the valve system 15 into the space through the first tube 21 if the annulus pressure is higher than the space pressure, and vice versa if the space pressure is higher than the annulus pressure.
  • the first valve 16 comprises a chamber 24 and a piston 25 dividing the chamber into a first chamber section 26 and a second chamber section 27 where the piston is movable within the chamber to shift position between the first position, which is shown in Fig. 3 , and the second position, which is shown in Fig. 4 .
  • the first valve 16 has a first aperture 31 being in fluid communication with the inside, a second aperture 32 being in fluid communication with the second valve, a third aperture 33 being in fluid communication with the annular space and a fourth aperture 34 being in fluid communication with the annulus. And in the first position the first aperture is in fluid communication with the second aperture, and in the second position the third aperture is in fluid communication with the fourth aperture.
  • the second aperture is aligned with an inlet 41 of the second valve 17, and the third aperture 33 is in fluid communication with an outlet 42 of the second valve.
  • the outlet 42 is furthermore in fluid communication with the annular space by channel 43.
  • the piston comprises a fluid channel 35 providing fluid communication between the third aperture 33 and the second chamber section 27 in the first position.
  • the piston has a first end face 36 facing the first chamber section 26 and a second end face 37 facing the second chamber section 27.
  • the fluid channel 35 provides fluid communication between the annular space and the second chamber section 27 in the first position, so that the space pressure acts on the second end face 37 of the piston and presses the piston to move if the space pressure is higher than the inside pressure of the tubular part.
  • the first end face has an outer diameter OD P corresponding to an inner diameter ID C of the chamber 24.
  • the outer diameter OD P of the first end face 36 is larger than an outer diameter of the second end face, but may in another embodiment, shown in Fig. 7 , be substantially equal to the outer diameter of the second end face 37.
  • the piston has a recess 28 providing fluid communication between the third aperture 33 and the fourth aperture 34 in the second position of the first valve 16.
  • the recess is annular so that the fluid can flow freely around the piston.
  • the piston has several sealing elements 29 to fluidly isolate the third aperture in the first position and to fluidly isolate the fourth aperture 34 also in the first position, so that there is no fluid communication there between in the first position, as shown in Fig. 3 .
  • the sealing elements fluidly isolate so that there is no fluid communication between the second aperture 32 and the third and fourth apertures 33, 34.
  • the second valve is a ball valve or a check valve.
  • the annular barrier of Fig. 5 further comprises an anti-collapsing unit 51 comprising an element 52 movable at least between a first position and a second position.
  • the anti-collapsing unit 51 has a first port 53 which is in fluid communication with the first zone of the annulus, and a second port 54 which is in fluid communication with the second zone of the annulus, and the anti-collapsing unit has a third port 55 which is in fluid communication with the annular space.
  • the first port 53 In the first position (as shown) of the anti-collapsing unit 51, the first port 53 is in fluid communication with the third port 55, equalising the pressure of the first zone with the space pressure, and in the second position of the anti-collapsing unit 51, the second port 54 is in fluid communication with the third port 55, equalising the pressure of the second zone with the space pressure.
  • the anti-collapsing unit 51 is in fluid communication with the first zone through the screen, and with the second zone through the inside of the tubular part/well tubular structure or a tube extending through the annular barrier.
  • the anti-collapsing unit comprises a shuttle valve 51a and the element 52 is comprised in the shuttle valve.
  • the annular barrier further comprises a locking element 56 adapted to mechanically lock the piston when the piston is in the second position blocking the first aperture 31.
  • the locking element 56 is configured to move at least partly radially inwards upon movement of the piston away from the first position to prevent the piston from returning to the first position of the piston.
  • the locking element 56 permanently locks the piston in a closed position.
  • Fig. 6 shows a downhole system 100 for completing a well in a formation having layers of varying pressures.
  • the downhole system 100 comprises the well tubular structure 3 and at least one annular barrier 1.
  • the well tubular structure 3 is a drill string also called a drilling liner 3a connected with a drilling head 45 or bit in a first end 44.
  • the annular barrier is arranged closer to the first end 44 than a second end of the well tubular structure at the top of the well, e.g. near the Christmas tree, blowout preventer (BOP) or well head.
  • BOP blowout preventer
  • the annular barrier is expanded to seal off the low pressure zone, and cement can be ejected into the second zone above the annular barrier through a cement port 57, and in this way the low pressure zone is sealed off and further completion can be initiated, e.g. by drilling further into the formation past the low pressure zone down to the hydro-carbon containing fluid reservoir.
  • the well tubular structure becomes a production casing or at least an intermediate casing having a production casing arranged therein.
  • the drilling head is thus designed so that it is possible to drill through it and further down the reservoir.
  • the piston is maintained in the first position by a shear pin 39 which functions as an extra safety precaution.
  • the shear pin shears when the pressure inside the tubular part and thus the well tubular structure has reached a level at which the pressure difference between the space pressure and the inside pressure is high enough to shear the shear pin 39.
  • the shear pin will not shear unintentionally when the pressure inside the well tubular structure drops a little bit due to fluctuations in the power supply or the pump delivery, since the pressure difference will not be high enough; however, the shear pin will hold the piston in the first position so that such small fluctuations will not cause the piston to shift position.
  • a closing element such as a ball
  • the inside pressure of the well tubular structure is increased and expansion of the annular barrier just above or in the low pressure zone will occur.
  • the inside pressure is decreased to a pressure below the space pressure shifting the position of the first valve from the first position to the second position, as the space pressure being substantially equal to the expansion pressure presses onto the second end of the piston and forces the piston to shift position.
  • the well tubular structure is permanently closed and fluid communication between the annular space and the annulus is provided, so that in the event that a pressure difference arises between the annular space and the annulus, then the pressure difference there between can be equalised to prohibit collapse of the expandable sleeve 9 of the annular barrier 1.
  • the well tubular structure is a production casing having a production opening or production zone which may be provided with an inflow control valve, screens etc.
  • the well tubular structure may also comprise a cement port 57 or a fracturing port.
  • Completing the well using the downhole system may further comprise oscillating or rotating at least part of the well tubular structure in relation to the annular barrier while cementing, after expansion of the expandable sleeve of the annular barrier. After cementing the annulus between the well tubular structure and the wall of the borehole above the annular barrier, the completion may continue by drilling past the low pressure zone.
  • the expandable sleeve may be of metal, and the tubular part may be of metal so that the annular barrier is substantially of metal.
  • the annular barrier may comprise sealing elements arranged on the outer face of the expandable sleeve.
  • the well tubular structure is of metal and is substantially a well tubular metal structure.
  • the well tubular structure may have some parts or components fully or partly of non-metal.
  • fluid or well fluid any kind of fluid that may be present in oil or gas wells downhole, such as natural gas, oil, oil mud, crude oil, water, etc.
  • gas is meant any kind of gas composition present in a well, completion, or open hole
  • oil is meant any kind of oil composition, such as crude oil, an oil-containing fluid, etc.
