水平井大排量旁通筛管设计与应用

Design and Application of High-Flow-Rate Shunted Screen for Horizontal Wells

  • 摘要: 水平井砾石充填过程中因形成砂桥易导致桥堵,为提高旁通通道的过流截面利用率和工作可靠性,基于旁通分流砾石充填技术原理,研制了大排量旁通筛管,优化了旁通通道结构,将传统旁通筛管中的充填管替换为喷砂环,形成了“喷砂环−输送管”结构。通过地面物理模拟试验和现场试验验证,相比传统型旁通筛管,大排量旁通筛管在输送管过流截面扩大了47.1%,沿程摩阻压降降低了53.8%,充填速率提高了180%,应用井投产后360 d内累计产油量提高了31.2%。研究结果表明,大排量旁通筛管具有优异的旁通通道输送能力,可实现快速循环充填,有效降低储层污染,减少砾石与地层砂的掺混,为提高单井产量提供了一种技术手段。

     

    Abstract: To meet the challenge of sand bridge-induced blockages while gravel packing in horizontal wells and improve the flow area utilization and working reliability of shunted tubes, a high-flow-rate shunted screen was developed based on the principle of gravel packing technology for bypass channels. By optimizing the shunted tube structure, the packing tube in the traditional shunted screen was replaced by a sand blasting ring, and a “sand blasting ring−conveying tube” structure was formed. The surface physical model test and field test verified that compared with the traditional shunted screen, the high-flow-rate shunted screen expanded the flow area of the conveying tube by 47.1%, reduced the frictional pressure drop by 53.8% along the process, increased the packing rate by 180%, and enhanced the accumulative oil production by 31.2% within 360 days after the operation of the applied well. The results show that the high-flow-rate shunted screen has excellent bypass channel conveying capacity. It can realize rapid circulation packing, effectively reduce reservoir pollution, alleviate the mixing of gravel and formation sand, and provide a technical means to increase the production of a single well.
