Definitions

  • the invention generally refers to the field of mining and exploration. More particularly, the invention relates to an automated method and an apparatus for determining physical properties of samples suspended in a drilling fluid, wherein the physical properties of the samples are determined while a borehole for extraction of a natural resource, particular oil or gas, contained in a subterranean reservoir is drilled.
  • MWD Measurement While Drilling
  • Detailed records, i.e. well logs, of the geologic formations penetrated by boreholes are typically based either on visual inspection of samples brought to the surface (geological logs) or on physical measurements performed by instruments lowered into the borehole or well (geophysical logs) .
  • Well logging is practised nowadays during all phases of the devel- opment of an extraction site, i.e. during drilling, completing, producing and abandoning of the borehole or the well.
  • the operator of the extraction site usually has to stop the production of the borehole or well when well logging procedures are performed. Hence, the development of alternative procedures that may avoid a delay of production are desired.
  • M D devices are capable of performing various meas- urements such as measuring naturally occurring gamma radiation to characterise the rock or sediment in the borehole. Furthermore, MWD device are capable of measuring borehole pressure, temperature, vibration, torque and the like. Advanced MWD devices of the prior art are adapted to measure formation pressure and take information samples. MWD devices additional provide means of communication for operating rotary steering tools.
  • MWD devices may be provided with means of digi- tal storage so that measurement results may be digitally stored. Additionally, measurements results may be transmitted digitally to the surface via mud pulse telemetry.
  • Mud pulse telemetry describes a method of data transmission, wherein pressure fluctuations are generated in the drilling fluid and used as signals.
  • a downhole valve may be operated to restrict the flow of the drilling fluid or slurry according to the digital information to be transmitted. Accordingly, pressure fluctuations propagating within the drilling fluid are received by pressure sensors. The pressure fluctuations may al- so be used as signals for controlling the MWD device.
  • special core analysis provides supplementary information on the subterranean rock formations abundant at the extraction site.
  • Special core analysis includes laboratory experiments performed on core plugs or core samples taken from the natural reservoir.
  • core analysis requires expensive procedures for acquisition of the core samples.
  • procedures of mud logging and sample logging are well established in the state of art.
  • a standard mud log usually includes real-time drilling parameters such as a rate of penetration, lithology, flow line temperature, mud weight and/or estimated pore pressure. Chemical parameters may include the determination of concentration's of hydrocarbons and/or chlorides. Sample logs are usually made by examining samples or cuttings circulated to the surface by the drilling fluid, sometimes also called drilling mud, in rotary drill- ing.
  • the samples are suspended in the drilling fluid that enters the borehole via a drill pipe, sometimes also called drill sting. Accordingly, samples originating from a drilling depth return to the surface via an annulus of the borehole.
  • the samples are then transported to separation devices, in particular shale shakers, for separation from the drilling fluid.
  • Shale shakers typically comprise flat sheets of wire mesh screens or sheats that shake or vibrate so as to separate the samples from the fluid as drilling mud flows through them. Samples are collected at regular time intervals and an- alysed and described by a geologist or a mud logger. Although sand and shale make up the majority of the samples encountered while drilling boreholes, depending on the location, any number of formations can actually be encountered. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automated method for determining physical properties of the samples suspended in the drilling fluid that is capable of providing a comprehensive survey of the extraction site while minimising production delay.
  • the object is achieved by an automated method for determining physical properties of samples suspended in a drilling fluid while drilling a borehole for extraction of a natural resource, in particular oil or gas, contained in a subterranean reservoir, that comprises the steps of
  • separating the samples from the drilling fluid analysing the separated samples by means of electron microscopy, magnetic resonance imaging and/or computer tomography, the step of analysing including the generation of at least one image of at least one of the samples and the deter- mination of at least one physical property of the at least one sample ;
  • the drilling fluid suspending the samples originating from one of the drilling depths is automatically extracted from the borehole via the annulus and transported to a separation device.
  • the samples are separated from the drilling fluid, in particular by means of sieving.
  • the separated samples are then transported to an analysis device capable of analysing the separated samples by means of electron microscopy, magnetic resonance imaging and/or computer tomography.
  • the samples are analysed in a manner such that at least one image of the at least one of the sample is generat- ed and at least one physical property of the least one sample is automatically determined.
  • the steps of extracting, separating and analysing is repeated for different drilling depths, i.e. different samples are automatically extracted, separated and analysed at regular time intervals during the drilling procedure of the borehole.
  • the method for determining the physical properties of the samples may be fully automated so that the determination of the physical properties occurs in real time during the drilling procedure. Additionally, comprehensive information on the various rock for- mations may be collected by the sophisticated methods of electron microscopy, magnetic resonance imaging and/or computer tomography. A comprehensive survey including the data of determined physical properties of samples originating from different rock formation may be used as the basis for both operational decisions while drilling and for reservoir development strategy.
  • the at least one property is determined by means of image processing.
  • Image processing is a means suitable for express analysis as algorithms are available that are capable of determining parameters relating to physical properties of the samples from image data in real time. Consequently, the procedure of drilling the borehole does not have to be inter- rupted for determination of the at least one physical property and production delay is minimised.

  • the at least one image is generated from back-scattered electrons.
  • Electron microscopy is a powerful technique to image the mi- crostructure in particular of porous samples that has already found application in digital rock physics including thin- section imaging to build three dimensional porous media mod- els using process-based geostatistical modelling, multiple- scale imaging for shale and carbonate analysis, nano- resolution three dimensional image reconstruction, sample mineral content and special distribution study, and qualita- tive core structure analysis for engineering and research and development purposes .
  • Electron microscopy, computer tomography and/or magnetic res- onance imaging is now suggested to be performed directly on the extraction site for analysing the contents of the drilling mud emerging from the annulus of the borehole during the process of drilling.
  • the method may be automated so as to provide key information about the various rock formations of the natural reservoir in minimal time.
  • the drilling of additional boreholes for surveillance purposes only is thus obsolete.
  • images generated from back-scattered electrons are provided with sufficient resolution so that the at least one physical property may be determined with improved accuracy.
