Abstract

Brønn (10) med regulerbar gassløfting og tilhørende S=F|C^=^<K~3^'20 gassløfteventiler (52) og følere (112, 114, 116, 118) for å registrere fluidparametere og bestemme hvilket flytregime fluidet har. I_^brønnen (10) brukes produksjonsrørstrengen (26) og foringsrøret ''t^ftC IjpWP^. (24) til kommunikasjon mellom overflaten og ventilene (59) samt til _JTRstrømforsyning til strømforbrukeren nede i brønnen. Ferrormagnetiske spoler (40, 42) på overflaten (12) og nede i LL—brønnen isolerer rørstrengen (26) elektrisk fra foringsrøret (24). Et kommunikasjonssystem med spektralfordeling og stor båndbredde brukes til kommunikasjonen mellom ventilene (52) og overflaten (12). Følerne (112-118) brukes til blant annet måling av trykk, - "~S1 temperatur og fluidets lyd og kan være anordnet nede i brønnen '(10) for å gi mer presis bedømmelse av forholdene der, særlig' flytregimet. Driftsforholdene, så som gass- injeksjonsmengden per 4Z ^ H | tidsenhet, returtrykket i rørstrengen (26) og posisjonen av ventilene^(52) nede i brønnen (10) kan varieres i avhengighet av flytregimet, ■—forhold nede i brønnen, oljeproduksjonen, bruken av gass og J _„ tilgjengeligheten for å optinialisere produksjonen. Et kunstig og _EUfe—si nevralsimulerende nett (ANN) opplæres til å kunne registrere såkalt Taylor strøm regime ved hjelp av akustiske følere nede i brønnen,eventuelt også andre følere. Bruken er varierende, særlig for flerfaselfuidstrøm i en fluidleder.Well (10) with adjustable gas lift and associated S=F|C^=^<K~3^'20 gas lift valves (52) and sensors (112, 114, 116, 118) to record fluid parameters and determine which flow regime the fluid has. In_^the well (10) the production pipe string (26) and the casing ''t^ftC IjpWP^ are used. (24) for communication between the surface and the valves (59) as well as for _JTR power supply to the power consumer down in the well. Ferromagnetic coils (40, 42) on the surface (12) and down in the LL well isolate the pipe string (26) electrically from the casing (24). A communication system with spectral distribution and large bandwidth is used for the communication between the valves (52) and the surface (12). The sensors (112-118) are used for, among other things, the measurement of pressure, - "~S1 temperature and the sound of the fluid and can be arranged down in the well '(10) to give a more precise assessment of the conditions there, especially the flow regime. The operating conditions, so as the gas injection amount per 4Z ^ H| time unit, the return pressure in the pipe string (26) and the position of the valves^(52) down in the well (10) can be varied depending on the flow regime, ■—conditions down the well, the oil production, the use of gas and J _„ the availability to optimize the production. An artificial and _EUfe—si neural simulating network (ANN) is trained to be able to register the so-called Taylor current regime with the help of acoustic sensors down in the well, possibly also other sensors. The use is variable, especially for multiphase fluid flow in a fluid conductor.
