Drilling in low-permeable reactive shale formations with water-based drilling mud presents significant challenges, particularly in high-pressure and high-temperature environments. In previous studies, several models were proposed to describe the thermodynamic behaviour of shale. Most shale formations under high pressure are expected to undergo plastic deformation. An innovative algorithm including work hardening is proposed in the framework of thermo-chemo-poroelasticity to investigate the effect of plasticity on stresses around the wellbore. For this purpose a finite-element model of coupled thermo-chemo-poro-elastoplasticity is developed. The governing equations are based on the concept of thermodynamics of irreversible processes in discontinuous systems. In order to solve the plastic problem, a single-step backward Euler algorithm containing a yield surface-correction scheme is used to integrate the plastic stress–strain relation. An initial stress method is employed to solve the non-linearity of the plastic equation. In addition, super convergent patch recovery is used to accurately evaluate the time-dependent stress tensor from nodal displacement. The results of this study reveal that thermal and chemical osmosis can significantly affect the fluid flow in low-permeable shale formations. When the salinity of drilling mud is higher than that of pore fluid, fluid is pulled out of the formation by chemical osmotic back flow. Similar results are observed when the temperature of drilling mud is lower than that of the formation fluid. It is found that linear elastic approaches to wellbore stability analysis appear to overestimate the tangential stress around the wellbore and produce more conservative stresses compared to the results of field observation. Therefore, the drilling mud properties obtained from the elastoplastic wellbore stability in shales provide a safer mud weight window and reduce drilling cost.  相似文献

井壁失稳是钻井过程中常常遇见的难题之一,尤其在钻遇泥页岩井段。针对河南中牟页岩气区块在山西组-太原组泥页岩钻进过程中发生井壁坍塌掉块、卡钻、井径扩大率大等复杂情况,利用MY1井钻井岩心从泥页岩类型划分、孔渗特征、微观结构、岩石力学以及地应力等方面开展井壁稳定性影响因素实验分析。通过分析可知,中牟区块泥页岩属硬脆性泥页岩,造成井壁失稳的主要因素为地层非均质性强,岩石脆性程度较高,微裂缝发育,易导致井壁机械剥落、坍塌掉块。通过合理控制钻井液密度、优化井身结构及钻井参数、研发低自由水强封堵钻井液提高井壁稳定性,在区块钻井实践中取得了较好的应用效果,基本解决了井壁失稳难题。  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Wellbore instability is one of the major challenges facing the drilling industry and it shows itself in the form of wellbore collapse and/or fracture. The major reason for this challenge is the inability of the mud density to balance the weight of the excavated materials. While most drilling operations are carried out through shale formations, the complexities of drilling such wells are increased because of the tendency for shale to react with water-based mud. Moreover, the very low permeability of shale means that time-dependent effects may set in. The convention used to incorporate time-dependent effect is to couple the constitutive stress model and chemical diffusion, but in this study, we considered the effect of incorporating time variable into the rock failure criterion. The choice criterion used is the Mogi-Coulomb rock failure criterion, which was modified to incorporate the time effect. The results indicate that in an open-hole the mud density to prevent wellbore collapse increases with time while that to prevent wellbore fracture decreases, thus making the mud window reduce with time.  相似文献

Borehole Stability Analysis of Horizontal Drilling in Shale Gas Reservoirs   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
Serious wellbore instability occurs frequently during horizontal drilling in shale gas reservoirs. The conventional forecast model of in situ stresses is not suitable for wellbore stability analysis in laminated shale gas formations because of the inhomogeneous mechanical properties of shale. In this study, a new prediction method is developed to calculate the in situ stresses in shale formations. The pore pressure near the borehole is heterogeneous along both the radial and tangential directions due to the inhomogeneity in the mechanical properties and permeability. Therefore, the stress state around the wellbore will vary with time after the formation is drained. Besides, based on the experimental results, a failure criterion is verified and applied to determine the strength of Silurian shale in the Sichuan Basin, including the long-term strength of gas shale. Based on this work, horizontal well borehole stability is analyzed by the new in situ stress prediction model. Finally, the results show that the collapse pressure will be underestimated if the conventional model is used in shale gas reservoirs improperly. The collapse pressure of a horizontal well is maximum at dip angle of 45°. The critical mud weight should be increased constantly to prevent borehole collapse if the borehole is exposed for some time.  相似文献

Water active rocks consist of minerals that hold water in their crystalline structure and in pore spaces. Free water from drilling fluid can be attracted by the formation depending on the potential differences between pore space and drilling fluid. The fluid movement into the formation or out of the formation can lead to a change in effective stress, thus causing wellbore failures. In all previous studies it is found that the solute transport from or to the formation is primarily controlled by diffusion process and the effect of advection on solute transfer is negligible for a range of very low permeable shale formations (>10−5 mD). In this study a range of permeable shale formations (10−5 to 10−3 mD) commonly encountered in drilling oil and gas wells are considered to investigate the solute transfer between drilling fluid and formation due to advection. For this purpose a finite element model of fully coupled chemo-hydro-mechanical processes was developed. Results of this study revealed that the solute transfer between the drilling fluid and the shale formation is controlled primarily by permeability of the shale formations. For the range of shale formations studied here, there exists a threshold permeability below which the solute transfer is dominated by diffusion process and above which by fluid in motion (fluid flow). Results from the numerical experiments have shown that when the permeability of shales is greater than this threshold permeability, the chemical potential gradient between the pore fluid and drilling fluid reaches equilibrium faster than that when the permeability of shales is below this threshold value. Also it has been found that when advection is taken into account, effective radial and tangential stresses decrease around the wellbore, particularly near the wellbore wall where the solute concentration has reached near equilibrium.  相似文献

页岩气主要以吸附和游离状态贮藏在海相、陆相和海陆过渡相泥页岩中,这些岩石的沉积过程、时间和类型不同,表现出了地层或岩石的物理化学性质各向异性的特点。页岩气钻探所遇地层主要是不同时代的泥岩、砂岩、泥质砂岩、砂质泥岩等,这些岩石对钻井液中水分子具有极强的敏感性。所以,在钻探过程中常遇到起下钻遇阻、孔内沉渣多、重复破碎、卡钻等问题,由此花费大量的时间处理,从而减少了纯钻时间。这些问题的根本原因则是由于岩石膨胀缩径、孔壁崩塌超径所造成的。本文首先对河南中牟页岩气区块地层特征进行了描述,并就牟页1井钻探问题从钻孔缩径和超径2个方面进行了理论研究和分析,最后从钻井液和钻探工艺选择方面提出了原则性的建议。  相似文献

盐岩在深部高温高压环境下具有很强的蠕变特性,在岩盐层钻井经常出现井眼缩径、卡钻等复杂事故。目前关于岩盐层井段安全钻进泥浆密度的计算方法主要适用于均匀地应力的情况,难以在非均匀地应力条件下应用。为此研究建立了三向地应力作用下盐岩和砂泥岩相互交错的复合岩盐层井眼蠕变缩径的三维有限元模型,并以塔里木油田羊塔克地区深井为例,研究了非均匀地应力条件下,复合岩盐层井眼随时间变化的蠕变缩径规律,得出了一定泥浆密度下岩盐层井眼在不同时刻的井径值。计算结果表明,安全泥浆密度有限元模拟值与羊塔克地区岩盐层井段实际采用的安全泥浆密度非常接近,验证了所建数值模型的合理性和计算结果的可靠性,研究成果为岩盐层井段的安全钻进提供了技术支撑。   相似文献

Shale formation swelling is one of the main factors affecting wellbore instability and associated problems in drilling operation. In order to eliminate these problems, it is important to investigate formation characteristics and understand mechanisms of rock-fluid interaction, from chemical/mechanical point of view. Shale membrane efficiency is known as an important parameter affecting wellbore instability. In order to measure this parameter, many mathematical models and experimental efforts have been carried out which consider mechanical-chemical processes for rock-fluid interactions. In this study, the field equations governing the problem have been derived based on the linear chemo-poroelastic theory and solved using analytical/numerical methods. Afterward, a comprehensive workflow to characterize the chemo-poroelastic parameters of illite-rich shale is conducted in the laboratory. In fact, mineralogical and apparent properties of shale sample have been described and some setups were performed such as triaxial test and membrane efficiency. Then genetic algorithm has been applied to solve an inverse problem and get a match between experimental data and modeling results. Ultimately, the three important properties in shale-fluid interactions, i.e., shale membrane efficiency, hydraulic, and chemical diffusivity coefficient have been estimated. Comparing the simulation results with the experimental data indicates that the simulation model can appropriately simulate the pore pressure transmission test. With this approach, the required parameters can be estimated with good accuracy without using time-consuming and costly tests.  相似文献

Evaluation of petroleum-fluid properties, hydrocarbon shows, and source-rock characteristics requires new tools to properly recognize and correct for drilling and test-induced contamination, which is increasingly common in modern deepwater field operations. Oil exploration, development, and now production, are more frequently conducted in deeper-water environments where the challenges faced by drilling and operations can severely impact the evaluation of oil and rock geochemistry and fluid properties. Poorly consolidated sediments, swelling clay minerals, and responses to evolving environmental regulations regarding offshore disposal of drill cuttings have resulted in the widespread use of enhanced mineral oil or synthetic-based muds. Also, water-based drilling fluids used in some deepwater operations contain additives that may impact fluid and rock geochemistry. For example, asphalt-based shale stabilizers are added to aid well-bore competency and prevent sticking drill pipe, and polyalkylated glycols are added to depress freezing temperatures and prevent the formation of gas hydrates in the drilling mud. Because these and other additives are often a significant component of water-based muds, they may affect the geochemical signature of fluids and rocks and alter fluid properties. Highly saline brines are another important source of contamination as they are used in completion fluids, water-wet muds, and are emulsified in oil-wet muds. Brine components impact metal contents of petroleum-fluid tests and complicate the determination of formation-water compositions. Despite potential problems introduced by these additives, successful strategies can be devised to accurately access key geochemical and engineering parameters.  相似文献

In oil and gas drilling or geothermal well drilling, the temperature difference between the drilling fluid and formation will lead to an apparent temperature change around the borehole, which will influence the stress state around the borehole and tend to cause borehole instability in high geothermal gradient formations. The thermal effect is usually not considered as a factor in most of the conventional borehole stability models. In this research, in order to solve the borehole instability in high-temperature formations, a calculation model of the temperature field around the borehole during drilling is established. The effects of drilling fluid circulation, drilling fluid density, and mud displacement on the temperature field are analyzed. Besides these effects, the effect of temperature change on the stress around the borehole is analyzed based on thermoelasticity theory. In addition, the relationships between temperature and strength of four types of rocks are respectively established based on experimental results, and thermal expansion coefficients are also tested. On this basis, a borehole stability model is established considering thermal effects and the effect of temperature change on borehole stability is also analyzed. The results show that the fracture pressure and collapse pressure will both increase as the temperature of borehole rises, and vice versa. The fracture pressure is more sensitive to temperature. Temperature has different effects on collapse pressures due to different lithological characters; however, the variation of fracture pressure is unrelated to lithology. The research results can provide a reference for the design of drilling fluid density in high-temperature wells.  相似文献
