The construction of Zhongyuan gas storage group takes the salt layer as the caprock. Therefore, the cementing quality of the sealed salt interval is a key factor in the construction of gas storage. The cement slurry was eroded by the salt gypsum layer during the migration of the salt layer, which affects the basic performance of cement slurry, resulting in the poor cementation quality between cement sheath and salt layer. In addition, the irregular borehole in the salt layer and the expansion of well diameter make the displacement efficiency poor in the cementing process, which restricts the cementing quality of this kind of wells. At present, due to the unsatisfactory cementing quality and low excellent rate of cementing quality in the salt layer during the construction of Wen 23 gas storage, the construction of gas storage cannot be completed as planned. Therefore, in order to ensure the successful construction and service life of gas storage, the cementing technology research of big-thickness salt layer in Zhongyuan Gas Storage Group is carried out. The salt resistant fluid loss reducer and retarder are selected through the project test, and the expansion early strength agent and toughening agent are selected. Through the compatibility research and the evaluation of the performance of cement slurry and the cementation strength of cement stone by the erosion of different salt content, a fresh-water-salt-resistant and ductile cement slurry system suitable for salt rock cementing is formed; In terms of cementing technology, we have developed well hole optimization technology, optimized leakage prevention technology in salt section and supporting high-quality sealing technology in salt layer, formed cementing technology and recommended practices for Wen 23 gas storage, and effectively ensured the primary success rate of cementing in Wen 23 gas storage. The research results of this subject have been successfully applied in 12 wells of Wen 23 gas storage and Wei 11 gas storage. The qualified rate of cementing quality has been increased from 96% to 100% and the excellent rate has been increased from 12% to 83.33%, which meets the requirements of gas storage for salt layer sealing quality and ensures the safe and efficient operation of Zhongyuan Gas Storage Group.
中原储气库群建设以盐层为盖层。因此,密封盐层的固井质量是影响储气库建设的关键因素。在盐层迁移过程中,水泥浆受到盐石膏层的侵蚀,影响水泥浆的基本性能,导致水泥浆与盐层之间胶结质量差。此外,盐层井眼不规则,井径扩大,使得固井过程中的驱替效率较差,制约了该类井的固井质量。目前,文23储气库施工过程中,由于盐层固井质量不理想,固井质量优良率不高,导致储气库施工无法按计划完成。为此,为保证储气库的顺利施工和使用寿命,开展中原储气库集团大厚度盐层固井技术研究。通过工程试验选择了耐盐降滤失剂和缓凝剂,选择了膨胀早强剂和增韧剂。通过对不同含盐量侵蚀作用下水泥浆性能与水泥浆石胶结强度的相容性研究和评价,形成了适合于盐岩固井的淡水-耐盐、延性水泥浆体系;在固井技术方面,开发了井眼优化技术,优化了盐段防漏技术和盐层配套高质量密封技术,形成了文23气库固井技术和推荐做法,有效保证了文23气库固井的初步成功率。本课题的研究成果已成功应用于文23气库和魏11气库的12口井。固井质量合格率由96%提高到100%,优良率由12%提高到83.33%,满足了储气库对盐层密封质量的要求,保证了中原储气库集团的安全高效运行。

Improving water-based drilling fluid properties to mitigate instability issues at elevated temperatures is the need of the hour. In this study, industrially prepared silica nanoparticles (NPs) coated with AEAPTS ([3-(2-Aminoethylamino) propyl] trimethoxy silane) was used as an additive to enhance the rheology and control filtration of the water-based mud. Silica nanoparticles were coated separately in a two-step process, which involved the addition of a hydroxyl group first and then coating with AEAPTS. To check its applicability in water-based drilling fluids rheological and filtration tests were done with varying NP concentrations of 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 w/v %. The rheology values of the mud samples were recorded both before and after the thermal aging of mud in the roller oven at 105°C for 16 hours. The filtration test was carried out according to API standards with 100 psi differential pressure for 30 minutes. The silane coating over the silica NPs was confirmed with the shifting in the peaks of the FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) spectra of the sample. Both the plastic viscosity (PV) and the apparent viscosity (AV) of the drilling fluid were found to be increasing with silane-coated silica nanoparticles’ inclusion when tested at 30°C and 60°C. The degradation in the rheology of the base mud without nanoparticles after thermal aging was found to be around 60 % which was reduced to around 20 % with the addition of the coated silica nanoparticle. Also, a remarkable reduction in the filtrate volume, when compared with base mud, was achieved with the addition of the silane coated NP in the mud. The results show that the novel AEAPT silane-coated silica NPs can be used as a rheology modifier and filtration control additive in water-based drilling fluid for high-temperature drilling applications.
改善水基钻井液的性能以减轻高温下的不稳定性问题是当务之急。在本研究中,采用工业制备的二氧化硅纳米颗粒(NPs)包裹AEAPTS([3-(2-氨基乙基氨基)丙基]三甲氧基硅烷)作为添加剂,以增强水基泥浆的流变性和控制过滤。将二氧化硅纳米颗粒分别包覆在两个步骤的过程中,首先是羟基的加入,然后是AEAPTS包覆。为了验证其在水基钻井液中的适用性,在0.2、0.3和0.4 w/v %的NP浓度下进行了流变学和过滤试验。记录了泥浆在105℃高温烘箱中热老化16 h前后的流变学值。过滤试验按照API标准进行,压差为100 psi,持续30分钟。硅烷涂层覆盖在二氧化硅NPs上,样品的傅里叶变换红外光谱峰移位证实了硅烷涂层。在30°C和60°C条件下,随着硅烷包覆二氧化硅纳米颗粒的加入,钻井液的塑性粘度(PV)和表观粘度(AV)均有所增加。热老化后,未添加纳米颗粒的基泥流变学降解率约为60%,而添加包覆二氧化硅纳米颗粒后,基泥流变学降解率降至20%左右。此外,与基础泥浆相比,在泥浆中加入硅烷包覆的NP后,滤液体积显著减少。结果表明,新型AEAPT硅烷包覆二氧化硅NPs可作为高温钻井中水基钻井液的流变改性剂和过滤控制添加剂。

Abandoning a well after it reaches the end of its life cycle requires a barrier evaluation operation across multiple strings. The traditional method for barrier evaluation requires exposing the outer casing by a cut and pull or section mill of the inner casing so that the outer casing can be logged, to verify the barrier seal. The cut and pull and subsequent inner casing/tubing recovery or section milling operations are costly and time consuming, often lasting for several days, thus increasing the overall plug and abandonment (P&A) cost and carbon emissions. This paper will describe a novel logging technology, allowing barrier evaluation of two strings simultaneously without the need to remove the inner string. The dual-string barrier evaluation technology is based on combining advanced ultrasonic multimodality physics with a multimodal deep-probing array sonic measurement providing the capability to map the axial and azimuthal material coverage in the first and second annuli simultaneously. The technology is applicable to evaluate tubing-casing dual-string or casing-casing dual-string environments. Based on the new technology, operators are no longer required to remove the inner string to evaluate the outer string. This approach revolutionizes conventional operations by reducing P&A rig days to minimize costs and overall carbon emissions. Furthermore, when proactively performing dual-string barrier evaluation offline or rigless in a number of wells marked for P&A, operators can use the log data to optimize future rig-based operations, minimize contingencies, and possibly prioritize the rig schedule for specific wells only. This paper discusses an offshore case study where the technology was used in two wells in the southern North Sea during the P&A phase. The measurements and observations with dual-string logging technology will be presented in addition to a validation exercise after pulling the inner string. These dual-string log measurements were subsequently used to streamline the abandonment program in realtime resulting in minimized rig time and scope, subsequently reducing overall carbon emissions. Even though the case study covers wells from a P&A operation, the dual-string technology is equally useful in other well scenarios such as sidetracks or even monitoring barrier integrity in production wells in long-term time-lapse well integrity monitoring. The technology can evaluate different types of barrier material such as cement or formation (shale/salt) squeeze or barite sag in both the first and second strings. Formation squeeze from specific North Sea shale (Williams et al. 2009) or salt members has been tested to act as a competent barrier.
在井的生命周期结束后放弃井,需要跨多个井串进行屏障评估操作。传统的阻隔性评价方法需要通过内套管的切割和拉拔或分段磨铣来暴露外部套管,以便对外部套管进行测井,以验证阻隔性密封。切割和拉拔以及随后的内套管/油管回收或段铣作业成本高,耗时长,通常持续数天,从而增加了封堵和弃井(P&A)的总成本和碳排放。本文将介绍一种新的测井技术,该技术可以同时对两根管柱进行屏障评估,而无需移除内部管柱。双管柱屏障评估技术基于先进的超声多模态物理与多模态深度探测阵列声波测量相结合,能够同时绘制第一环空和第二环空的轴向和方位物质覆盖范围。该技术适用于评价油管-套管双管柱或套管-套管双管柱环境。基于新技术,作业者不再需要移除内管柱来评估外管柱。该方法通过减少封堵弃井作业日数,将成本和总碳排放量降至最低,彻底改变了传统作业方式。此外,当在一些标记为封堵弃井的井中进行离线或无钻机的双管柱屏障评估时,作业者可以利用测井数据优化未来的钻机作业,最大限度地减少意外事故,并可能仅针对特定井优先考虑钻机计划。本文讨论了一个海上案例研究,该技术在北海南部的两口井的P&A阶段被应用。此外,还将介绍双管柱测井技术的测量结果和观察结果,以及拉入内管柱后的验证练习。随后,这些双管柱测井测量结果用于实时简化弃井程序,从而最大限度地减少了钻机时间和范围,从而减少了总体碳排放。尽管案例研究涵盖了弃井作业,但双管柱技术在其他井况中同样有用,例如侧钻,甚至在生产井的长期延时完整性监测中监测屏障完整性。该技术可以评估一、二管柱中不同类型的阻隔材料,如水泥或地层(页岩/盐)挤压或重晶石凹陷。经过测试,北海特定页岩(Williams et al. 2009)或盐层的地层挤压可以作为有效的屏障。

Conventionally, the transition from completion to production often requires the well to be killed immediately after perforation is completed, thus exposing the formation to potentially damaging killing fluid. To obtain a perforation tunnel with maximum productivity, this transition requires an optimal clean-up and removal of the perforation damages. Underbalance perforation through Tubing Conveyed Perforating (TCP) system is one of the best practices to ensure less damage to the perforation tunnels (perforating skin) leading to increased well productivity. However, it is very challenging in cases of completions with Electrical Submersible Pump's (ESP) to maintain productivity with undamaged reservoir by preventing any contact between reservoir and completion fluid and achieve the above simultaneously with safe well control during ESP deployment. Otherwise, the alternative solution is to run TCP string in single run then kill the well after perforation in order to install the ESP completion. As a result of the increasing emphasis on reducing operating costs, maximizing well productivity, and minimizing wellbore clean-up time, an integrated solution was designed and successfully implemented for perforating artificially lifted wells in static underbalanced condition and installing ESP completion in single run without killing the well. It combines the use of TCP system equipped with automatic release gun hanger. TCP gun string has been set by Electric Line against the required intervals, then the ESP has been separately installed and the guns has been activated through an electronic firing head for a shoot-and-drop operation. The static underbalance condition has been created by the ESP thanks to the programmed delayed firing time. After this operation, the well has been directly lined up to production flowline with minimal wellbore clean-up time. The combination of static underbalanced perforation with deep penetration charges which is able to bypass invasion zone, can create a clean perforation tunnel, and significantly reduce the post-perforating damage by killing fluid, and finally maximize the well productivity. Despite the challenging reservoir conditions (Depth= 16,500 FT, Pressure=6250 Psi, Temperature= 285 deg. F, Porosity = 8%), the Productivity Index (PI) of the wells were three times compared to the offset wells. Five jobs have been performed by Agiba Petroleum Company, one of the main operators in Western Desert of Egypt, employing this combined TCP-ESP technique which has resulted in significant savings in rig time and increased operating efficiency. This paper summarizes the practical experiences gained during the development and deployment of this integrated technique, in addition to an evaluation of the impact compared to the conventional perforation techniques through ESP downhole sensor data and well modelling.
通常,从完井到生产的过渡通常需要在射孔完成后立即压井,从而使地层暴露在具有潜在破坏性的压井液中。为了获得最大产能的射孔通道,这种过渡需要最佳的清理和消除射孔损伤。通过油管输送射孔(TCP)系统进行欠平衡射孔是确保对射孔通道(射孔表皮)损害较小,从而提高油井产能的最佳实践之一。然而,在使用电潜泵(ESP)完井的情况下,通过防止储层与完井液之间的任何接触来保持储层的生产力,同时在ESP部署过程中实现安全的井控,这是非常具有挑战性的。否则,另一种解决方案是一次下入TCP管柱,然后在射孔后压井,以安装ESP完井装置。由于人们越来越重视降低作业成本、最大化油井产能和缩短井筒清理时间,因此设计了一套综合解决方案,并成功实施,用于在静态欠平衡条件下进行人工举升井射孔,并在单趟下安装ESP完井,而不会压井。它结合了TCP系统的使用,配备了自动释放枪悬挂器。TCP射孔枪管柱由Electric Line按照要求的间隔下入,然后单独安装ESP,通过电子发射头激活射孔枪,进行射孔-投下操作。由于程序设定的延迟发射时间,ESP产生了静态欠平衡状态。该作业完成后,井直接与生产流水线对接,井筒清理时间最短。静态欠平衡射孔与能够绕过侵入层的深射孔药相结合,可以创建一个干净的射孔通道,并通过压井液显著减少射孔后的损害,最终最大限度地提高油井产能。尽管具有挑战性的储层条件(深度为16,500 FT,压力为6250 Psi,温度为285°F,孔隙度为8%),但该井的产能指数(PI)是邻井的3倍。Agiba石油公司是埃及西部沙漠地区的主要作业者之一,该公司已经完成了五项作业,采用了TCP-ESP技术,大大节省了钻机时间,提高了作业效率。本文总结了该综合技术在开发和部署过程中获得的实践经验,并通过ESP井下传感器数据和井模型对其与常规射孔技术的影响进行了评估。

Success Story of the Development of Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip Technology 超低btu火炬尖端技术发展的成功案例

Current low-BTU flare tip technologies require a flare gas lower heating value (LHV) of approximately 200 BTU/scf while significant advancement on CO2 removal membrane technology has resulted in an extremely low-BTU waste gases having LHVs around 140 BTU/scf. This requires the extremely lean waste gas to be supplemented with methane to raise its heating value to achieve stable combustion. Not only does the operator lose the benefit of the advanced membrane technology but they also lose product (sellable gas) and have increased green house gas (GHG) emissions at the production site. Consequently, the development of the "Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip" is beneficial in multiple ways. The Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip development project was launched as a joint research and development project between PTTEP and John Zink Hamworthy Combustion (JZHC). The innovative design is based on theories behind low heating value gas combustion and improves upon existing low-BTU flare technology. The goal was to obtain flame stability and safe operation in offshore oil and gas production environments at LHVs significantly lower than 200 BTU/scf. This project included multiple iterations of prototype design, simulation, and testing, with various parameter adjustments to optimize the performance against completeness of combustion criteria. The design was studied through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and prototype testing to develop the operating envelope of the Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip. The design of the tip integrates John Zink's existing technology with additional components i.e. spokes and top hat. CFD simulation was performed to observe the fluid behaviors, including temperature, velocity, and unburned hydrocarbon; allowing modification of the design prior to the fabrication of the prototype. The final design has been proven by a series of prototype tests to reinforce the level of confidence in its performance and mechanical integrity. The test results show that the Extremely Low BTU Flare Tip has the capability to combust flare gases with an LHV as low as 110 Btu/scf which is a significant improvement over existing flare tip technology. The benefit of this technology is estimated to be between 10-31 MMUSD per year per platform, depending on the lowest achieved heating value. The success of the Extremely Low BTU flare tip development project provides a breakthrough technology which is not limited to brownfield applications but also supports future acquisition and development of Greenfield sites. This Extremely Low BTU flare tip technology will improve the probability of success for greenfield development with a high CO2 reservoir by maximizing reservoir recovery, optimizing overall capital and operational expenditure, and minimizing hydrocarbons flared which has the direct effect of increasing gas sales and decreasing greenhouse gas emissions.
目前的低BTU火炬尖端技术要求火炬气的低热值(LHV)约为200 BTU/scf,而二氧化碳去除膜技术的显著进步导致极低BTU废气的LHV约为140 BTU/scf。这就需要在极贫的废气中补充甲烷,提高其热值,实现稳定燃烧。操作人员不仅失去了先进膜技术的好处,还失去了产品(可销售气体),并增加了生产现场的温室气体(GHG)排放。因此,“极低btu耀斑尖端”的发展在多个方面都是有益的。极低btu火炬尖端开发项目是PTTEP和John Zink Hamworthy Combustion (JZHC)的联合研发项目。创新的设计基于低热值燃气燃烧背后的理论,并改进了现有的低btu火炬技术。目标是在LHVs明显低于200 BTU/scf的海上油气生产环境中获得火焰稳定性和安全操作。该项目包括原型设计、模拟和测试的多次迭代,通过各种参数调整来优化性能,以满足燃烧标准的完整性。通过计算流体动力学(CFD)模拟和原型测试对设计进行了研究,以确定极低btu耀斑尖端的工作包线。尖端的设计集成了John Zink现有的技术与额外的组件,即辐条和礼帽。通过CFD模拟,观察了流体行为,包括温度、速度和未燃烧烃;允许在原型制造之前修改设计。最终的设计已经通过了一系列的原型测试,以加强对其性能和机械完整性的信心。试验结果表明,极低BTU火炬尖端能够以低至110 BTU /scf的LHV燃烧火炬气体,这是对现有火炬尖端技术的重大改进。该技术的效益估计在每个平台每年10-31百万桶/天之间,具体取决于实现的最低热值。极低BTU火炬尖端开发项目的成功提供了一项突破性的技术,不仅限于棕地应用,而且还支持未来收购和开发绿地。这种极低BTU火炬尖端技术将通过最大限度地提高油藏采收率,优化总体资本和运营支出,最大限度地减少碳氢化合物燃烧,从而提高高二氧化碳油藏绿地开发的成功率,从而直接提高天然气销量,减少温室气体排放。

This requires the extremely lean waste gas to be supplemented with methane to raise its heating value to achieve stable combustion. Not only does the operator lose the benefit of the advanced membrane technology but they also lose product (sellable gas) and have increased green house gas (GHG) emissions at the production site. Consequently, the development of the \"Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip\" is beneficial in multiple ways. The Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip development project was launched as a joint research and development project between PTTEP and John Zink Hamworthy Combustion (JZHC). The innovative design is based on theories behind low heating value gas combustion and improves upon existing low-BTU flare technology. The goal was to obtain flame stability and safe operation in offshore oil and gas production environments at LHVs significantly lower than 200 BTU/scf. This project included multiple iterations of prototype design, simulation, and testing, with various parameter adjustments to optimize the performance against completeness of combustion criteria. The design was studied through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and prototype testing to develop the operating envelope of the Extremely Low-BTU Flare Tip. The design of the tip integrates John Zink's existing technology with additional components i.e. spokes and top hat. CFD simulation was performed to observe the fluid behaviors, including temperature, velocity, and unburned hydrocarbon; allowing modification of the design prior to the fabrication of the prototype. The final design has been proven by a series of prototype tests to reinforce the level of confidence in its performance and mechanical integrity. The test results show that the Extremely Low BTU Flare Tip has the capability to combust flare gases with an LHV as low as 110 Btu/scf which is a significant improvement over existing flare tip technology. The benefit of this technology is estimated to be between 10-31 MMUSD per year per platform, depending on the lowest achieved heating value. The success of the Extremely Low BTU flare tip development project provides a breakthrough technology which is not limited to brownfield applications but also supports future acquisition and development of Greenfield sites.

High concentration of CO2 in various fields of Malay basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia pose major challenges in monetizing the resources in a sustainable way. Focused study to understand the source, origin and distribution of CO2 is essential to make informed decisions on developing the fields. This paper is part of the basin scale study to address the distribution of CO2 and its risk assessment. Modelling of the petroleum system including CO2 contaminant was adopted to validate the fluid accumulations in the basin with observed results from fields. An Earth Model was built using maps generated from an integrated study of seismic and 65 key wells. The depth to basement and depth to Moho were incorporated from previous gravity modelling study. The CO2 content and isotope data compiled from reports facilitated in building the knowledge on the source, origin, and distribution over the study area. Play segments identified based on tectonic features were used to divide the basin into subset areas for analysis.

In a global context aiming to unlock a low carbon future by industry decarbonization, developing the infrastructure for capturing and storing CO2 emissions is a key target of countries, energy companies and regulatory bodies. Injection for geological storage in suitable reservoirs is an advantageous option which presents challenges related to the completion accessories and string exposed to the injected fluid and the thermodynamical loads during injection and the well life. The purpose of this work is to simulate by numerical analysis and full-scale test, the behavior of a gas-tight Metal-to-Metal OCTG premium dope-free connection when subjected to low temperatures and loads generated by the effect of a sudden CO2 high pressure drop during injection in depleted reservoirs. Extreme temperature drop down caused by the Joule-Thompson (J-T) effect between injection conditions (P-T) inside the tubular and those in the annulus, may expose tubing connections to a thermal shock reaching a temperature near the theoretical figure of -78.5°C. This temperature drop assumed as worst-case scenario is also explored. The analysis is performed considering estimated loads for a CO2 injection case study. The numerical analysis and full-scale test performed confirm the structural and sealability performance of the connection is not affected by the exposure to such low temperatures. Additionally, transient thermal loads, with a drop of approximately 100°C, appears to be not critical for the metal-to-metal dope-free seal integrity and also not affecting the structural integrity of the connection. The challenges setting up of a prototype testing frame, simulating the cooling by thermal shock, lead to a methodology for assessing CCS projects premium connection able to define a robust testing protocol for cryogenic temperatures. The numerical and full-scale results collected on the tested connection size, together with the ones previously tested, allow extrapolation to near sizes of the same premium thread family. The results achieved by testing a premium connection which has been subjected to a thermal shock approaching -78.5°C represent a forefront in the industry, demonstrating the reliability of the product not only in operative conditions during CO2 injection, but also after an extreme event, assessing performance for the CCUS storage projects.
在旨在通过工业脱碳开启低碳未来的全球背景下,发展捕获和储存二氧化碳排放的基础设施是各国、能源公司和监管机构的一个关键目标。在合适的储层中进行地质储层注入是一种有利的选择,但也面临着一些挑战,如完井附件和管柱暴露在注入流体中,以及注入过程中的热力学载荷和井寿命。这项工作的目的是通过数值分析和全尺寸测试来模拟气密金属-金属OCTG优质无毒品连接在低温下的行为,以及在枯竭油藏注入过程中突然产生的二氧化碳高压降的影响。由于管内注入条件(P-T)和环空注入条件(P-T)之间的焦耳-汤普森(J-T)效应导致的极端温度下降,可能会使油管连接处暴露在接近理论值-78.5℃的热冲击下。并对最坏情况下的温度下降进行了探讨。该分析是考虑二氧化碳注入案例研究的估计负荷进行的。数值分析和全尺寸试验表明,这种低温环境不会影响接头的结构性能和密封性能。此外,瞬态热载荷(下降约100°C)似乎对金属对金属无添加剂密封的完整性并不重要,也不会影响连接的结构完整性。建立一个原型测试框架,模拟热冲击冷却的挑战,导致了一种评估CCS项目优质连接的方法,能够定义一个强大的低温测试协议。在测试的连接尺寸上收集的数值和全尺寸结果,以及先前测试的结果,允许外推到接近相同优质螺纹系列的尺寸。在接近-78.5°C的热冲击条件下,通过测试优质连接获得的结果代表了行业的前沿,证明了该产品不仅在二氧化碳注入的操作条件下,而且在极端事件之后,评估CCUS存储项目的性能。

An offshore horizontal oil well was identified as having multiple tubing leaks and depleting reservoir pressure. Intervention was required to reinstate the well and optimize the gas lift system performance to maximize oil recovery. Various challenges were identified in the project design stage due to the horizontal well trajectory and its potential to cause debris obstructions combined with the absence of any capability to monitor downhole parameters. Software simulations were performed to determine the downhole reach limitations of the rigid tool string to ensure that the deepest Gas Lift Valve (GLV) could be successfully deployed to the target depth under live well conditions. The viability of safely deploying such a long Bottom Hole Assembly (BHA) from a limited deck space with a short riser height also needed to be resolved. To accomplish this while maintaining a double barrier on a live well without setting a deep plug and killing the well required detailed planning. A specific space out of the Coiled Tubing (CT) Pressure Control Equipment (PCE) was tailored to enable the simultaneous holding of a 350 meters long gas lift string while also allowing make-up of the packer assembly on surface. Due to the completion design not containing a suitable profile for depth reference with a conventional mechanical locator tool, the Real-Time (RT) catenary CT system was selected as an ideal method of achieving reliable depth correlation. The catenary CT system, equipped with a BHA containing various RT sensors such as pressure, temperature, compression, tension, inclination, Casing Collar Locator (CCL), Gamma-Ray (GR), and torque, was critical in monitoring the downhole parameters in this challenging trajectory to allow decision making and confirmation during the packer setting process. Despite the complexity of job design, preparation, and operational planning with challenges involving pumping, flowback, and the CT package set up in an offshore environment, this customized solution successfully deployed 350 meters of GLV deepening string with precisely set straddle packers to isolate the leak points without any issues. The completion of this project successfully reinstated significant production following a prolonged shut-in period, and gas lift performance was optimized for maximum oil recovery from the considerable remaining oil reserves in the reservoir. This project marked the first successful deployment of a thru-tubing GLV deepening system on a horizontal well for the asset operator. The catenary CT system was an effective solution that managed to safely achieve all of the objectives while overcoming all the challenges faced throughout the project.
某海上水平井发生多处油管泄漏,导致储层压力下降。为了最大限度地提高采收率,需要进行修井作业,并优化气举系统的性能。在项目设计阶段,由于水平井轨迹及其可能造成的碎屑堵塞,再加上缺乏监测井下参数的能力,研究人员发现了各种挑战。通过软件模拟来确定刚性工具串的井下到达极限,以确保在活井条件下,最深的气举阀(GLV)能够成功下入目标深度。在有限的甲板空间和较短的隔水管高度下安全部署这种长井底钻具组合(BHA)的可行性也需要解决。要实现这一目标,同时在没有下深桥塞和压井的情况下保持活井的双重隔离,需要详细的规划。连续油管(CT)压力控制设备(PCE)的特定空间进行了定制,可以同时保持350米长的气举管柱,同时还可以在地面上组装封隔器组件。由于完井设计中不包含适合常规机械定位工具的深度参考剖面,因此选择实时(RT)接触网CT系统作为实现可靠深度相关的理想方法。接触网连续油管系统配备了一个BHA,该BHA包含各种RT传感器,如压力、温度、压缩、张力、倾角、套管接箍定位器(CCL)、伽马射线(GR)和扭矩,对于监测这一具有挑战性的轨迹中的井下参数至关重要,可以在封隔器坐封过程中做出决策和确认。尽管作业设计、准备和作业计划非常复杂,包括泵送、反排和连续油管包在海上环境中的安装,但该定制解决方案成功地部署了350米的GLV加深管柱,并精确设置了跨式封隔器,隔离了泄漏点,没有出现任何问题。经过长时间的关井,该项目的完成成功地恢复了大量的产量,并优化了气举性能,以最大限度地从储层中可观的剩余油储量中采收率。该项目标志着该资产运营商首次在水平井上成功部署了过油管GLV深化系统。接触网连续油管系统是一种有效的解决方案,在克服整个项目面临的所有挑战的同时,成功地实现了所有目标。

In a deep gas wells drilling project, due to surface location limitations, predetermined target, and completion requirements, an S shape well profile is required. The well type is one of the most challenging due to the extended tangent section, increasing the risk of differential sticking, hole cleaning, extended reaming while tripping, and losses risk from the fracture-prone formation. An aggressive target at the outmost reservoir boundary is determined, requiring delivery of the furthest step-out S shape well, demanding more advanced technology and rigorous well planning. Comprehensive well planning and strategy, utilizing cutting-edge technology to achieve the furthest step-out S shape well. –Thorough offset wells analysis, identifying best drilling practices for the most critical S shape directional section.–Modified S shape well design, dividing two directional sections to enable reaching desired reservoir target.–Latest generation of RSS technology with a more robust system and improved tool reliability, enabling the achievement of required DLS in high drilling dynamic conditions.–Optimized BHA design, improved drilling fluid design, and LCM strategy, enabling the achievement of maximum drilling parameters while minimizing differential sticking and losses risk.–Specific casing and light cementing design strategy in the extensive S shape section allowing the casing to reach the bottom smoothly and avoid losses risk while cementing due to higher ECD. High drilling performance was achieved within the S shape well type in the field with no downhole tool failure nor drilling complexity and meeting desired well trajectory. High losses risk in the section and differential sticking was avoided, ensuring close adherence to drilling fluid parameters with bridge and seal strategy while drilling. The determined reservoir target was successfully reached with a total horizontal displacement of 3,140 ft (~1 km), resulting in the longest step-out S shape well in the deep gas well project. No wiper trip was required prior to running casing following best drilling practices and drilling fluid design and strategy prior to POOH the BHA. The casing string was able to run smoothly in the field's longest open hole section, with less than maximum rig hoisting capacity, following low drag friction factor to the casing point. The cementing job was performed using a real-time top of cement identifier and was further performed successfully without inducing any losses using a light slurry strategy and met the objective to seal off the reservoir formation. The novel holistic strategy encompasses cutting-edge technology utilization, Innovative well construction design, optimized BHA and drilling strategy, drilling fluid strategy, and specific measures in the casing and cementing design and execution, resulting in successfully delivering the longest step-out S Shape well in a deep gas drilling project.

The determined reservoir target was successfully reached with a total horizontal displacement of 3,140 ft (~1 km), resulting in the longest step-out S shape well in the deep gas well project.\u0000 No wiper trip was required prior to running casing following best drilling practices and drilling fluid design and strategy prior to POOH the BHA. The casing string was able to run smoothly in the field's longest open hole section, with less than maximum rig hoisting capacity, following low drag friction factor to the casing point. The cementing job was performed using a real-time top of cement identifier and was further performed successfully without inducing any losses using a light slurry strategy and met the objective to seal off the reservoir formation.\u0000 The novel holistic strategy encompasses cutting-edge technology utilization, Innovative well construction design, optimized BHA and drilling strategy, drilling fluid strategy, and specific measures in the casing and cementing design and execution, resulting in successfully delivering the longest step-out S Shape well in a deep gas drilling project.

This article briefly discusses the workflow through which a gas discovery was made within the Late Miocene interval (Lower and Upper Stage IVD) from the structurally down-flank of a three-way fault closure, where previously an unsuccessful campaign was carried out in the structurally higher location. The causes for the failure were attributed to reservoir absence and trap incompetency. An attempt was made to understand the causes of facies variations and their limits through an integrated sequence stratigraphic approach. This model was further concretized through post-stack attributes where the limits of the seismic facies were prominent. A quantitative interpretation (QI) study coupled with forward modelling helped de-risk the reservoir presence and fluid types. Rock physics modelling work, including shear log prediction, rock property modelling, depth -trend analysis, followed by simultaneous inversion and sand probability volume generation, reveals that the deeper part of Upper Stage IVD and Lower Stage IVD intervals were shale-out and pinch-out, respectively, for the earlier campaign. Likewise, sand-dominated facies are likely at the down-dip for both intervals with an effective lateral seal up-dip (due to facies change and pinch out). Finally, this integration led to a hydrocarbon discovery in a previously written-off fault block and proved a potential stratigraphic trap presence in this area. The well encountered 50 m of net gas-bearing sand within both intervals. This approach could further facilitate exploring stratigraphic play (s) in a similar geological setup.
本文简要讨论了在晚中新世段(IVD上、下阶段)从三向断层闭合的构造下侧发现天然气的工作流程,此前在构造较高的位置进行了一次失败的勘探活动。失败的原因是储层缺失和圈闭不合格。试图通过综合层序地层学方法了解相变化的原因及其局限性。该模型通过叠后属性进一步具体化,其中地震相的局限性突出。定量解释(QI)研究与正演模拟相结合,有助于降低储层存在和流体类型的风险。岩石物理建模工作,包括剪切测井预测、岩石性质建模、深度趋势分析,随后进行同步反演和砂体概率生成,表明在早期活动中,上段IVD和下段IVD层段的较深部分分别为页岩出砂和尖出砂。同样,砂质占主导的相可能在两个层段的下倾处,并且在上倾处具有有效的侧向封闭(由于相变化和掐出)。最后,这一整合导致在先前被冲销的断块中发现了油气,并证明了该地区存在潜在的地层圈闭。这口井在两个层段都遇到了50米的含气砂。这种方法可以进一步促进在类似地质构造中勘探地层油气藏。
