  • 摘要: 针对疏松砂岩易出砂储层的储气库的交变注采工况条件,着眼于交变注采对防砂介质稳定性的要求,评价优选并提出了机械筛管与环空涂敷砂充填复合防砂方法。为了探究其在交变注采工况下的可行性并推荐优化方案,使用完全密实充填和不同模式的不完整充填条件,开展了交变注采筛管涂敷充填复合防砂模拟实验,系统分析了涂敷层结构失稳破坏和地层砂侵入堵塞机理,以及流通性变化规律。结果表明:筛管涂敷砂充填复合防砂的介质稳定性、挡砂性能和过流性能能够满交变注采工况下的稳定性要求;不同条件的多轮次交变注采后,充填密实的涂敷固结充填层表面无剥落损坏或损坏非常轻微,具有较好的抵抗高强度和高频次气体交变注采的能力及结构稳定性;密实充填条件下基本无过砂现象,在三种不完全充填条件下有出砂现象,但出砂量和粒径随注采周期延续逐渐降低,最后能够达到堵塞平衡不再出砂,挡砂能力满足控砂要求。地层出砂条件下,筛管涂敷层复合充填层存在地层砂侵入堵塞现象,但随产出和注入出现堵塞和解堵交替现象,整体渗透率随注采周期延续呈下降趋势。典型实验条件下,交变注采5周期后,充填效率为95%的涂敷充填层,渗透率降幅约为25.9%。提升筛管外环空涂敷层的充填密实度和固结强度,是保证稳定性、挡砂效果和流通产能的关键。

     

    Abstract: Focusing on the stability requirements of the sand control media under alternating injection and production, a mechanical screen pipe and annular coating sand-filled composite sand control method has been evaluated, optimized, and proposed. To explore its feasibility under alternating injection and production conditions and recommend an optimal solution, a series of simulation experiments on alternating injection and production with coated screen pipes and filled sand composite sand control were conducted. These experiments used fully compacted filling and incomplete filling conditions under different modes. The experiments systematically analyzed the instability and failure mechanisms of the coating layer structure, sand invasion and clogging mechanisms, and the flow characteristics. The results show that the stability, sand control performance, and flow performance of the sand-filled composite coating on the screen pipe meet the stability requirements under alternating injection and production conditions. After multiple cycles of alternating injection and production under different conditions, the surface of the filled and compacted coated consolidation layer showed no peeling or only minor damage, indicating a good ability to resist high-intensity and high-frequency alternating gas injection and production, as well as structural stability. Under compacted filling conditions, there was essentially no sand production. However, under the three incomplete filling conditions, sand production occurred, but the amount and particle size of the sand decreased gradually with the injection and production cycles. Ultimately, the system reached a clogging equilibrium with no further sand production, and the sand control performance met the sand control requirements. Under the conditions of formation sand production, the screen pipe coating composite filling layer exhibited formation sand invasion and clogging. However, alternations between clogging and clearing occurred during production and injection, and the overall permeability decreased with the injection and production cycles. Under typical experimental conditions, after five cycles of alternating injection and production, the permeability of the filling layer with a filling efficiency of 95% decreased by about 25.9%. Improving the filling density and consolidation strength of the coating layer in the outer annular space of the screen pipe is key to ensuring stability, sand control effectiveness, and production capacity.
