Abstract In consideration of high transmission rate and high reliability of the
coiled tubing drilling measuring instrument, through comparison with the MILSTD-1553B bus protocol, we proposed a modified CAN version to improve the
CAN bus as data transmission scheme for underground communication bus. Comparing the 1553 bus with CAN bus in terms of their basic principles, characteristics
and formats of data, the feasibility of CAN bus as underground transmission bus is
analyzed. In order to meet the demand of small size coiled tubing instrument, the
design of CAN bus controller based on FPGA technology and the improvement of
CAN bus protocol… More >

Abstract The condensate gas reservoir output could be enhanced significantly
with the gas-wetting reversal FC-1. However, changes in the wettability have been
shown to affect dispersion properties of clay minerals in condensate gas reservoir.
With the gas-wetting realized on the montmorillonite (MMT), zeta potential and
cation exchange capacity (CEC) change with wettability reversion were studied
in this paper, and the mechanism of it was also analyzed. The zeta potential of
100 ∼ 200 mesh MMT reached to -17.27mV and gradually approached to nondispersion condition; with FC-1 concentration increased, CEC decreased sharply
from 2.14 to 0.2. The microstructure of MMT was analyzed… More >

Abstract Theoretical analyses and experimental results show that gas wettability
plays an important role on gas-well production. In the study, the gas-wet ability parameter of gas vs. liquid ζG-L, calculated from the proposed formula in the sessile
drop method, used to measure gas wettability of microscopic pore models treated
by fluorocarbon polymer Zonyl8740. Following that, the effect of gas-wetness on
gas-water two-phase seepage in models was studied by stereomicroscope with a
camera. Research results show that, under the condition of the pore structure is
constant and displacement velocity is very slow, capillary force is the main motivation for two-phase seepage, and… More >

Abstract The objectives of this paper are to report a novel method for the design of desirable yield point range of drilling fluid, which take consider of the needs
for drilling engineering and the principles of carry and suspend formation cuttings.
The calculation model was derived using solid-liquid dynamics under certain given
assumptions such as well structures, drilling fluid densities, depth, and etc., and
corresponding software was developed in c#. Then, relationship between plastic
viscosity and yield point has been expounded. For brevity, under the premise of
no sedimentation, any one of the drilling fluid density, pump discharge, plastic viscosity and… More >

Abstract For herringbone wells with antisymmetrical and curved laterals, the
effects of lateral symmetry and camber on production of herringbone wells are analyzed by semi-analytical model. The effects of laterals with different angles, different number and different spans on production of herringbone wells are analyzed
on this base. The results indicate that the contribution of mainbore of production is
smaller than symmetrical herringbone well whereas the contribution of laterals of
antisymmetrical herringbone well is bigger. The total production of antisymmetrical herringbone well is bigger than that of symmetrical herringbone well. The
curved laterals will cause less production comparing with deviated laterals.… More >

Abstract Developing low and extra-low permeability reservoirs becomes more
and more important to the sustainable energy development in China and waterflood
development is the common development mode. But with the oilfield development, water injection well has also exposed some questions gradually, such as the
injection pressure increases, water injection rate decreases and so on. We proposed
a new reservoir protection technology by adding new anti-swelling agent NTW-1
and fluorocarbon surfactant FCS-08 in the injection water. NTW-1 has good antiswelling ability and FCS-08 could change rock surface to neutral wetting. After
successful field application in ShengLi oilfield in china, water injection pressure… More >

Abstract In this paper, visual micro-model technology has been applied to investigate the influence rules of pore structure on water and polymer flooding, by
observing multiphase flow in porous media under the ZEISS 2000-C microscopy.
To make the transparent etched glass micro-model representative, the image of target reservoir layer from Shuanghe Oil field, was selected by using laser confocal
scanning technology. To ensure effective flow, pore channels with dead-end were
gotten through artificially, then the fine-adjustment-image was etched into two glass
plates and a specific cementing process was used. The main characteristic of this
micro-model is that it preserves the typical… More >
