气侵条件下深水钻井井筒温压耦合场分布规律研究

Study on the Coupling Field of Temperature and Pressure in Deepwater Drilling under Gas Kick Condition

  • 摘要: 在深水钻井中,气体侵入会对井筒内的温度和压力分布产生显著影响,进而对深水钻井作业带来安全风险。针对深水钻井中的气侵问题,考虑井筒内流体与地层、海水间的传热,建立了气侵条件下的深水钻井井筒温压耦合场计算模型,分析了气侵条件下气液两相流对井筒温度场和压力场的影响,探讨了钻井液循环时间、气侵量、地层深度、海水深度以及钻井液排量等因素对井筒温度场和压力场的影响规律。研究发现:海水深度是影响深水井筒环空温度的主要因素,钻井液排量、地层深度是影响深水井筒环空温度的次要因素,钻井液循环时间与气侵量的影响最小;随着钻井液循环时间、气侵量和钻井液排量增加,井筒温度和压力都降低;随着地层深度增加,井筒温度和压力都升高;随着海水深度增加,井筒温度降低而压力升高。该研究结果对气侵条件下深水钻井井筒温压耦合场分布研究和深水钻井作业安全具有指导意义。

     

    Abstract: During deepwater drilling, gas kick have a significant impact on the temperature and pressure distribution inside the wellbore, which will poses challenges to wellbore stability, fluid circulation, and operational safety. In this paper, focusing on the problem of gas invasion during deep water drilling, considering the heat transfer between the fluid in the wellbore, the formation, and the seawater, the calculation model for the temperature and pressure coupling field in deep water drilling wellbore under gas kick has been established. The influence of gas-liquid two-phase flow on wellbore temperature and pressure fields under gas kick has been analyzed. Furthermore, the influence of factors such as circulation time of drilling fluid, gas kick amount, formation depth, seawater depth, and casing size on wellbore temperature and pressure fields. The results show that the water depth is the main factor on the temperature of the deepwater wellbore annulus. The displacement of drilling fluid and the formation depth are secondary factors. The gas kick amount and drilling fluid circulation time have little influence on the temperature of the deepwater wellbore annulus. With the increase of the drilling fluid circulation time, gas kick amount and the displacement of drilling fluid, the temperature and pressure both decreases. With the increase of the formation depth, the temperature and pressure both increases. With the increase of the water depth, the temperature decreases and the pressure increases. This paper provides valuable guidance for deepwater drilling operations.
