Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for introducing an inductor loop into a rock formation for heating an oil reservoir and a corresponding In ⁇ tion device.
- a disadvantage of using the superheated steam method is that the heat distribution within the oil reservoir is difficult or impossible to predetermine.
- the known induction heater for the oil reservoir in particular the introduction of the inductor cable is difficult. So it is imperative for the induction heating to form a so-called inductor loop.
- Words must be placed an annular or CLOSED ⁇ sene otherwise form of Induktoriquess into the oil reservoir. This is done, for example, with flat drilling gen in the range of about 40 m below the surface of the Ge ⁇ stone formation. The so-called
- Bananaloopbacter be used, in which along a curved path two substantially parallel holes are performed.
- Each of these bores has an inlet opening and an outlet opening, so that the two outlet openings on the surface of the rock formation can serve to connect the two ends of the two inductor arms together again to the inductor loop on the surface.
- such a method can only be used in areas near the surface for the oil reservoir. For deep drilling in areas up to 800 m or 1000 m below the surface of the rock formation, such a drilling method is not possible. This is particularly due to the fact that when drilling a hole, the weight of the drill pipe itself is supportive.
- the method comprises the following steps: drilling a first inductor bore for introducing a first inductor arm,
- a total of three holes are now souge ⁇ leads.
- an inductor bore is carried out in each case for the first inductor arm and the second inductor arm.
- three or more inductor arms can also be used.
- a separate inductor bore is generated for each Induktorarm.
- the inductor bores are all created by a common inductor bore so that all or some of the inductor bores are coextensive in the initial region of the respective bore.
- the individual Induktorbohronne diverge and in particular parallel to each other to an area réellespan ⁇ NEN, in which the eddy currents inductively generated to perform the heating of the oil reservoir.
- At least one cut hole is provided. This cut bore now serves to make the ends of the blind holes
- Induktorbohrungen is drilled.
- a finding means can be used to during drilling the respective ends of the
- a cutting region is to be understood as a region which extends essentially between the at least two inductor bore ends and the introduced distal ends of the inductor arms.
- the inductor arms introduced into the rock formation advantageously end within the cutting area.
- the cutting region is only a small portion of the oil reservoir to be heated, and it is also conceivable that the cutting region lies outside the oil reservoir to be heated or to be heated.
- the Thomasbe ⁇ rich is less than or equal to about 1 m.
- the distance between the cutting hole and the inductor bore, preferably the end of Inductor, less than or equal to about I m is formed.
- a real intersection (7) ⁇ se is a real intersection between the bore section and the respective Induktorarm present.
- the electrical ⁇ dungsarm closing of the inductor by the Verbin when the sectional area having a size, as has been described above with less than about 1 m beschrie ⁇ ben. If the described holes for the inductor arms and for the connecting arm in the form of the cut hole have been carried out, the introduction of the individual arms can be done.
- the cutting bore itself can be in the form of a
- a plurality therefore may at least partially extending in parallel horizontally by means of single ⁇ Lich a single at least partially vertically extending bore section
- Induktorbohronne be connected. Furthermore, consequently, a plurality of substantially radially horizontally extending inductor bores can be connected by means of a single cutout bore configured in the form of a circular bore.
- the inductor arms are used. These are now in their fullest possible extent within the oil reservoir and up to corre ⁇ spective control unit or control unit on the surface of the rock formation.
- the cut hole now one or more connecting arms are used.
- two inductor arms become one link arm and four
- Induktorarmen two connecting arms, etc. necessary.
- the connecting arms now do not extend over the entire length of the cutting bore, but extend only over sections of this cutting bore.
- the connecting arms have a length which corresponds to the length of the cutting bore between the two corresponding or correlating cutting areas with the two inductor arms.
- a Verbin thus extends at least between two ⁇ dungsarm Induktorarmen to a Inducer loop to produce.
- the introduction takes place in such a way that an electrically conductive connection between the respective ends or at other locations of the inductor arms takes place in the respective inductor bore. This can be done, for example, in a mechanically contacting manner.
- devices can be introduced, which in actual overlap of the cutting bore and the respective
- Cutting area is resorted to. This means that the inductor loop is formed by the inductor arms, the connecting arm and the cutting area in the form of the rock formation and the rock present there.
- the conductivity of the Thomasbe ⁇ Empire in the case that no actual overlap between cutting bore and Induktorarm takes place, be aware of increased.
- This can be done, for example, by the use of an electrically conductive fluid or medium.
- this fluid can be introduced into the region of the cut bore and spread out within the cut bore in such a way that it creates a connection between the first cut region and the second cut region and consequently the first inductor arm and the second inductor arm.
- a bringing in of a connecting arm into the cutting bore is replaced by an introduction of an electrically conductive fluid to one
- the electrically conductive fluid is introduced in addition to the connecting arm at least in the cutting area within the cutting bore to advantageously Ver ⁇ bond between the first Induktorarm, the second
- Induktorbohrung and the cutting hole possible It is crucial that all of these holes exclusively downwards (ie in the vertical direction) or horizontally aligned within the oil reservoir. Ent ⁇ now against the known Bananaloopclar no upward drilling must be done, so that can be used on simple, formerly güns ⁇ term and above all in a relatively short time feasible drilling techniques. As a result, it is only through a method according to the invention that the possibility of induction heating of the oil reservoir is also available at any depth within the rock formation. In particular, in this way, oil reservoirs can be provided with an induction heating of the inductor loop, which are also arranged in deep well areas of approximately 1000 m or more below the surface of the rock formation.
- Induktorbohrung be drilled through a common Induktorbohrötechnik. As has already been indicated, it is sufficient if the individual inductor bores run separately within the oil reservoir. They thus clamp the induction field or the heating field in the oil reservoir.
- the implementation of a common Induktorbohrötechnik. As has already been indicated, it is sufficient if the individual inductor bores run separately within the oil reservoir. They thus clamp the induction field or the heating field in the oil reservoir.
- Induktorbohrept done.
- the heating power depends on the distance between the individual inductor arms. The greater the distance between the Induktorarmen, the greater the heating power is formed. If the Induktorarme out in ih ⁇ ren vertical sections as close together, for example in a common vertical Induktorbohrung, this results in a low or very low heat output in these sections. Only after splitting into the individual separate inductor bores the inductor arms bring a distance between them, so that now the heating power is provided to a greater extent and exactly at the desired location within the oil reservoir.
- Inductor bores from each other can be made, for example, at different heights within the rock formation. Even at different positions on a common height or even in different radial directions, a separation of the individual inductor bores from each other is conceivable.
- a further advantage is obtained when the Invention Induktorbohrept having at a ⁇ process according to at least one deflection point, in particular exactly one turning point.
- the inductor bores are formed substantially with a vertical and with a substantially horizontal or inclined portion.
- the vertical sections mean that the inductor arms can be introduced as vertically as possible into the rock formation. Vertical holes are particularly cost effective, fast and easy to execute.
- At least one deflection leads to the fact that now a horizontal or angled section for the respective inductor bore can be seen ⁇ .
- These horizontal or angular sections of the inductor bores now preferably extend into the oil reservoir.
- the actual orientation of the respective deflection point preferably depends on the respective geometric design of the oil reservoir within the rock formation. This deflection is preferably designed such that a deflection in the Ho ⁇ horizontal or at an angle to the bottom of the Horizonta ⁇ len takes place. This avoids that drilling upwards with the disadvantages already described would be necessary.
- the cutting bore has at least one deflection point, in particular sections being drilled along a curved path .
- a deflection point for the cutting bore brings about the same advantages as have already been explained with regard to the deflection point for the inductor bores .
- a curved path that is to say a continuous deflection point, preferably in an angled or horizontal plane, leads to a radially star-shaped network of
- Induktorarmen or inductor holes can be achieved with a single cut hole. This leads to a particularly homogeneous heating of a radially formed in Wesentli ⁇ chen Olreservoirs with only a few holes is possible in the inventive manner.
- Induktorbohrungen a finder is arranged for a detection of this Bohrendes when drilling the Thomasboh- tion.
- a finding means may, for example Strah ⁇ lung in the form of radioactive radiation or to emit electromagnetic radiation.
- An acoustic signaling for example in the form of ultrasound, can for the Detection means are provided.
- a magnetic Aus ⁇ education of the finder is conceivable. It is crucial that the shape of the signals emitted by the finder be transportable through the rock. In this way it becomes possible, when drilling the cutting bore, for example by means of a detection device, to perceive the actual location of the respective locating means.
- control or the alignment of the drill head for the cutting bore can be aligned with this drill end, so that the cutting area is hit with a higher probability.
- the bore section adjacent to the at least one connecting arm in particular encapsulated.
- this takes place when parts in the cutting area with electrically conductive liquids or
- a further advantage can be achieved if, in a method according to the invention, the inductor bores within the oil reservoir are drilled at a uniform or essentially uniform distance of, in particular, more than approximately 50 m. This is in particular the ho ⁇ rizontalen or angled portions of Induction holes inside the oil reservoir. A distance that is uniform, leads to uniform heating ⁇ power within the oil reservoir. Unwanted heat islands in parts of the oil reservoir are avoided in this way. Distances of about 50 m and more lead to a particularly advantageous and strong heating power for a sufficient reduction of the viscosity of the oil in the oil reservoir.
- an electrically conductive fluid is introduced at a Inventions process according to at least one of the interface regions for the elekt ⁇ driven conductive connection of the connecting arm and the angren ⁇ collapsing Induktorarms.
- the cutting areas have sufficient proximity between the cutting bore and the respective inductor bore.
- the cutting areas preferably have a distance from the cut bore to the respective inductor bore, which is smaller or equal to approximately 1 m.

- This induction device is particularly formed by a erfindungsge ⁇ zeßes method and has a first Induktorarm in a first and a second Induktorbohrung Induktorarm in a second Induktorbohrung on.
- An inventive Indukti ⁇ onsvorraum is characterized in that at least one connecting arm is arranged in a bore section which forms with the two Induktorbohritch sectional areas. In this case, the connecting arm connects the two inductor arms in an electrically conductive manner with each other. Due to the inventive design of the induction device, in particular by means of a method according to the invention, he brings ⁇ inventive induction device with the same advantages, as they have been explained in detail with reference to a method according to the invention.

- time entste ⁇ Henden temperature gradient occurs in dependence of the thermal parameters, such as thermal conductivity also for heat conduction, whereby the temperature profile compensates. With a greater distance to the conductor of the inductor loop, the strength of the alternating field decreases, so that only a smaller heating is possible there.

This ensures that the electromagnetic field of a return conductor of the conductor is not compensated and on the other hand, the number of holes in relation to the thickness of the reservoir can be kept optimally low. In the case of the immediate removal of the fluid made electrically conductive liquids, the electromagnetic field continues to reach removed from the Induktorarm electrically conductive layers and induces eddy currents there.
