Abstract:

 In the process of horizontal well drilling, due to the large curvature of the borehole in the deviated section, the drilling tool in the horizontal section lies in the bottom of the well under the influence of gravity and other reasons, the problem of technical casing wear is extremely prominent, which seriously destroys the wellbore integrity of the whole well. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out systematic research on the problem of casing wear and residual strength in horizontal wells. In this paper, casing wear experiment and casing wear efficiency prediction model are combined to study and analyze the casing wear thickness, wear coefficient and casing residual strength after wear, the casing wear thickness and the residual internal pressure resistance and residual extrusion resistance after wear have been obtained as under the condition of the wear coefficient with 1.52 × 10-13 / pa-1 and wellbore curvature with 2 ° / 30m~6 ° / 30m in horizontal well, as well as the residual strength of casing wear is also evaluated. Then, based on the well trajectory optimization, selection of casing inner diameter and the wear belt of drill pipe joint, the optimization suggestions of technical casing wear prevention in horizontal well are summarized. The research results have guiding significance for technical casing wear prevention design and measures in horizontal wells.

摘要: 在水平井钻井过程中,受造斜段井眼曲率大、水平段钻具受重力影响躺在井眼底边等原因,技术套管磨损问题极为突出,井筒完整性存在极大的隐患,对水平井套管磨损及剩余强度的分析展开系统性的研究是非常有必要的。文章采用套管磨损实验和套管磨损效率预测模型相结合的方法,对技术套管的磨损厚度、磨损系数、磨损后套管的剩余强度进行了研究分析,得到了在水平井磨损系数为1.52×10-13/pa-1、井眼曲率在(2~6)°/30 m时的套管磨损厚度、磨损后套管的剩余抗内压强度和剩余抗外挤强度,并对磨损后套管剩余强度进行安全评价。随后从井眼轨迹优化、套管内径及钻杆接头耐磨带选择等出发,总结出水平井技术套管防磨优化建议。此项研究结果对水平井技术套管防磨设计及防磨措施具有指导意义。
