近日,Halliburton推出了Elect压裂滑套,这是一种单孔套筒解决方案,针对多产层段压裂完井设计,可实现无限级作业。对于完井滑套工具来说,Elect是革命性的创新,其应用具有更高的灵活性,可精确激活目标产层,提高井筒与油藏的连通性。
为了优化产层增产效果,提高油井-油藏接触面积,Elect滑套对管串内径无限制,可最大化井液流率。对于开发商来说,取消了内径限制意味着可进行更多产层的压裂作业,水平段长度更长。
此外,Elect滑套利用电子设备的力量提高水力压裂效率。在实际作业中,Elect作为井建工具的一部分随套管安装于井中,可发挥当前所有滑套的作用,减少相关机械工具的使用。利用软件、硬件与机械工具的协同应用,加之合理的编程参数,哈里伯顿将Elect转化为了一款强力井下作业解决方案。这项创新技术是哈里伯顿不断向数字化解决方案发展的关键推动因素。
Halliburton完井工具副总裁Mark Dawson说:“Elect压裂套管的可靠性经过全面的测试和审查,可以缩短作业时间,加速生产的进行。我们相信,这项创新技术将继续推动提高非传统工具带来的完井效率。”
长久以来,提高非常规油藏产能一直是困扰开发商的难题。常规压裂滑套和作业方法面对着诸多限制和障碍,包括压裂级数有限、增产效果不佳等,这些都降低了井筒与油藏的连通性。要提高油藏产能,优化增产作业,服务公司必须解决这些问题。
?“我们的Elect压裂滑套是一种单孔、可配合固井作业的解决方案,在多级增产中可实现无限级的目标,并消除内径限制,优化井筒与储层的接触。Elect压裂滑套是市场上唯一可以应用在井中的电子压裂滑套。通过消除压裂级的限制,紧凑型Elect滑套有助于消除传统投球和连续油管压裂滑套的风险和影响。通过提供多种功能选项,开发商可以利用该工具的能力大幅提高油藏采收率,同时降低运营成本。”
在Elect的帮助下,开发商可以克服压裂级数限制,消除滑套过度使用风险,优化油藏与井筒连通性,提高增产作业效果。此外,Elect还可实现精准增产,降低作业强度和风险,减少完井作业时间。
可以说,哈里伯顿的Elect压裂滑套标志了该技术创新性发展的方向,通过电子控制激活,将传统的套管完井工作转变为智能完井工具。Elect克服了传统滑套工具的缺点,为压裂作业带来更高的灵活性,通过程序化设计,还可以实现完全的定制化。目前该工具推出了多种规格,包括单趟下入式、重复利用式和趾端滑套,最大化满足开发商需求。
单趟下入滑套:Elect SE是一种可配合固井作业的压裂滑套,支持无限级压裂作业,匹配各种内径井筒。该滑套的激活需要一次投球,其可消除当前常规滑套的流量限制,同时无需担心作业压力限制。配合可降解投球技术,该工具无需磨铣和后期的清洗操作。
重复使用滑套:Elect ME滑套与SE类似,但是其不具有隔离功能,取而代之的是延时开启功能,可为压裂段创造额外的射孔簇。
趾端滑套:Elect趾端滑套可实现真正的压力独立操作。由于该工具在预编程功能,其可作为套管的一部分使用,无需为其考虑压力问题,例如下入井筒过程中、流体流动或类似尾管挂工具安装等过程。一旦预编程的时间达到,套筒将在预定压力条件下开启。
该工具的应用特点包括:通过电池控制的电子工具,具有编程设定功能,消除内径应用限制,将“套管“转化为多功能压裂滑套。在此基础上,其在应用中可为开发商带来诸多收益,包括:消除多余干预作业,降低固井复杂性级井液流率限制,在复杂的井筒中也能保持稳定性,可完成无限级压裂作业,消除作业中压力相关风险,缩短完井作业时间。?
Halliburton Company has introduced the Elect frac sleeve, a monobore sleeve solution that enables unlimited stage count in multistage fracturing operations. The Elect frac sleeve is an evolutionary step in completion sleeves, supporting greater flexibility for highly optimized reservoir access with pinpoint well stimulation options.
The Elect frac sleeve provides no inner diameter or flow rate restrictions in order to optimize zonal stimulation treatment and contact with the reservoir. Removing internal restrictions can allow for more frac treatment options and longer laterals.
Additionally, the sleeve harnesses the power of electronics to promote efficiencies in hydraulic fracturing. The sleeve functions as an integral part of the well construction solution in the casing which reduces planning associated with other mechanical tools required for today’s sleeves. Hardware, firmware and software work in tandem to convert the sleeve into a useable downhole solution based on pre-programmed parameters. This innovative technology is a key enabler in Halliburton’s continued evolution to digital completion solutions.
“The reliability of the Elect frac sleeve has been thoroughly tested and vetted to provide reduced time to production,” said Mark Dawson, V.P of Halliburton Completion Tools. “We are confident that this innovative technology will continue the drive to improved completion efficiency in the unconventional market.”
Elect? Monobore Frac Sleeve Systems
Maximizing well production in unconventional reservoirs has long been a challenge. Standard sleeves and traditional methods have limitations and obstacles, including the number of stages, isolation method used, and well stimulation rates needed – all of which place severe limits on accessing reservoirs, optimizing stimulated reservoir volume, and maximizing production levels.
Our Elect? frac sleeve is a monobore, cementable, solution that offers unlimited stage counts in multistage fracturing operations and minimal inside-diameter (ID) restrictions in order to optimize contact with the reservoir. The Elect frac sleeve is the only electronic frac sleeve on the market that can be reliably cemented in a well. By enabling unlimited stages in multistage fracturing operations, the compact Elect sleeve helps eliminate the risks and effects of using conventional ball-drop-activated and coiled-tubing-activated frac sleeves. With numerous functional options, operators can leverage the tools capability to dramatically increase recoverable reserves while also decreasing operational costs per BOE.
Elect frac sleeves enable operators to:Overcome stage count limitations
Mitigate over-displacement
Optimize reservoir access and stimulation
Enable pinpoint stimulation
Reduce service intensity and risk
Decrease completion cycle timeHalliburton Elect? monobore sleeve systems are a revolutionary platform that electronically actuates to turn wellbores from simple casing to smart completion tools. This suite of tools overcomes the current limitations and barriers associated with standard sleeves and traditional methods. The Elect sleeve platform provides unlimited flexibility by enabling programmable settings and features that are fully customizable.
These frac sleeves are available in three variations: single-entry (SE) and multi-entry (ME) sleeves, and toe sleeves
ELECT SINGLE-ENTRY FRAC SLEEVE
The Elect SE sleeve is a cementable frac sleeve with a full-wellbore inside diameter (ID) that allows for an unlimited number of stages. A single-sized ball is used to activate and treat the sleeves. By removing the flow restrictions present with conventional frac sleeves, there are no longer any rate or pressure limitations. The use of dissolvable ball technology helps eliminate the need to perform a millout or cleanout operation.
ELECT MULTI-ENTRY FRAC SLEEVE
The Elect ME frac sleeve is similar to the SE version, except that it does not provide isolation. Instead, this delayed-opening sleeve is used, along with the SE sleeve, as an additional cluster (entry point) in a stage.
ELECT TOE SLEEVE
The Elect toe sleeve allows for true operational pressure independence. Because the tool acts like a piece of casing for a pre-programmed amount of time, there is no need to pin the tool for pressures typically encountered, such as running in hole, fluid displacement, or setting a tool like a liner hanger. Once the pre-programmed timer elapses, the sleeve will open when a predetermined pressure is achieved.
