A Model for Calculating Annular Pressure Loss in Slim Hole Taking into Account Tool Joint
摘要
Abstract
Slim hole drilling as an important technology is more and more used in developing deep oil and gas resources.In slim hole drilling,the much higher annular pressure losses impose a challenge to the annular pressure control.Accurate prediction of the annular pressure losses under the condition of eccentric rotation of drill string is an important theoretical and practical base for slim hole drilling.Conventional prediction models for this purpose have limited applicability and often omit the influences caused by the tool joints,thus cannot satisfy the requirements for accuracy in field operation.To solve this problem,a method of constructing empirical models with pressure loss correction factors is established based on the analyses of the effects of the tool joints on the flow-field and pressure losses in annular spaces using numerical simulation.The analyses show that the extra pressure losses produced by the tool joints are affected by the type of drilling fluid,rotary speed of drill pipe,eccentricity of drill pipe and annular flow velocity.Thus,when determining the pressure loss correction factor,the coupling of these effects should be taken into account.Using the result of numerical simulation of 152 sets of data,a model for predicting the annular pressure losses of the slim holes drilled in the Mahu oilfield in Xinjiang is established.The calculation using this model shows that there is a critical rotary speed at low drill pipe eccentricity,at which the annular pressure loss reaches maximum.At high drill pipe eccentricity,the annular pressure losses increase with rotary speed.The effects of the drill pipe eccentricity on the annular pressure losses will become complex because of the rotary speed.Using the annular pressure loss prediction model developed,the equivalent circulation density of the well MHHW-X in the Mahu oilfield was calculated and compared with the PWD data,the average error was only 1.18%,indicating that the model has high accuracy.The results of the study show that,the model established through numerical simulation for calculating annular pressure losses in slim holes,which takes into account the effects of tool joints,is able to satisfy the requirement of accuracy for field prediction of annular pressure losses,and to provide guidance to the annular pressure control in field operation.关键词
