Using polymer-based fluids is a common technique to improve horizontal downhole cleaning. However, these fluids cannot always guarantee an efficient wellbore cleanout. One way to enhance cleanout efficiency is by rotating the drillpipe to mitigate the settling of solids and facilitate their removal. However, drillstring rotation often increases equivalent circulating density (ECD). Therefore, in this study, we explore how the impact of rotation on hole cleaning can be synergized by using fibrous water-based polymeric fluids to perform cleanout at reduced rotational speeds with limited effect on ECD. The flow loop used for this study consists of a 48-ft long eccentric annular (5×2.375 in.) test section. Each experiment began by forming a stationary bed of natural sand (an average diameter of 1.2 mm) in the test section. High-viscosity and low-viscosity polymer-based suspensions with and without fibers were used. The drillpipe rotation speed was varied from 0 to 150 rev/min. In each experiment, the flow rate was increased from 35 to 195 gal/min stepwise. The bed perimeter was measured at equilibrium condition for every test flow rate until a complete bed cleanout was achieved. In addition, the friction pressure loss was measured. Rotational viscometers were also used to measure fluid rheology before and after each test. Fiber particles improve the carrying capacity of the fluid by reducing solid settling and minimizing the redeposition of particles. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of fiber in synergizing pipe rotation effects on hole cleanout performance in horizontal wellbores. Fiber’s impact is more pronounced when used with low-viscosity fluid. The cleanout performance of the low-viscosity fluid is amplified significantly with rotation, almost entirely cleaning the bed at 75 gal/min and a rotational speed of 50 rev/min, compared with more than 195 gal/min without rotation. Even more improvement could be achieved by adding a small amount of fiber (0.04wt%). In addition, the fiber improved the cleanout performance of the high-viscosity fluid. The enhancement, however, was not as noticeable as with the low-viscosity fluid. In general, rotation combined with low-viscosity fibrous fluid exhibits the best cleaning performance. This is because rotating the pipe resuspends the settled solids, which are then easily carried by fibrous fluid that has high solids carrying capacity.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135809613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the key challenges is enhancing predictive models for the rate of penetration (ROP), which are intricately tied to the delicate interplay between significant parameters and drilling efficiency. Recent research has hinted at the potential of temporal and sequential elements in drilling, but a detailed exploration and understanding of these dynamics remain underdeveloped. Addressing this research gap, our primary innovation is not just the introduction of a model but rather the employment of the attention-based long short-term memory (LSTM) network as a tool to deeply analyze the role of sequential features in ROP prediction. Beyond merely applying the model, we furnish a robust foundation for sequential analysis, detailing data processing methods and laying out comprehensive data analytics guidelines for such temporal assessments. The utilization of the LSTM network, in this context, ensures meticulous capture of real-time drilling data nuances, providing insights that are both profound and actionable. Through empirical evaluations with real-world data sets, we accentuate the vital importance of time-sequential dynamics in refining ROP predictions. Our methodological approach, tailored for the oilfield domain, is both rigorous and illuminating, achieving an R2 score of 0.95 and maintaining a relative error under 10%. This effort goes beyond simply proposing a new predictive mechanism. It establishes the centrality of sequential analysis in the drilling process, charting a course for future research and operational optimization in the petroleum and gas sector. We not only offer enhanced modeling strategies but also pioneer insights that can shape the next frontier of industry advancements.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135850215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a computationally efficient fluid flow and heat transfer model, combined with a fluid chemistry model, is used to simulate fluid circulation and mineral precipitation in reservoir rock, resulting in changes in rock porosity and permeability. A 2D hybrid approach is employed to solve transient mass and momentum conservation equations, coupled with an analytical solution of the energy equation proposed in the literature for geological formations. A marching algorithm is utilized to calculate velocity and temperature fields in the axial direction within the production zone. Mineral scaling is addressed using the outputs of the hybrid model to perform saturation index (SI) and solution/dissolution computations for qualitative and quantitative mineral precipitation modeling. Multiple criteria are considered to assess the likelihood and intensity of fouling issues. The analysis results are used in an empirical model to estimate rock secondary porosity and permeability changes over a 5-year period of heat extraction. The developed simulator is applied to model a site in the Sabalan geothermal field in Iran, and its initial verification is conducted using data from the same site in the literature. The findings in the study for a sensitivity on fluid circulation rate reveal that increasing water circulation flow rate increases precipitation rate and pumping power required. Furthermore, even minor instances of pore blockage can result in notable reductions in permeability. Consequently, ensuring precise control over pressure and temperature during the production phase becomes progressively crucial for both reservoir integrity and production assurance. The proposed framework provides a promising approach for accurate and efficient simulation of geothermal reservoirs to optimize power generation and minimize environmental impact.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136161494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This challenge is exacerbated in a robust optimization (RO) setting, where flow simulation must be repeated for numerous geological realizations, rendering RO impractical for many field-scale cases. In this paper, we introduce and discuss a new optimization workflow that addresses this issue by providing computational efficiency, i.e., achieving a near-global optimum of the predefined objective function with minimal forward model (flow-simulation) evaluations. In this workflow, referred to as “Bayesian optimization (BO),” the objective function for samples of decision (control) variables is first computed using a proper design experiment. Then, given the samples, a Gaussian process regression (GPR) is trained to mimic the surface of the objective function as a surrogate model. While balancing the dilemma to select the next control variable between high mean, low uncertainty (exploitation) and low mean, high uncertainty (exploration), a new control variable is selected, and flow simulation is run for this new point. Later, the GPR is updated, given the output of the flow simulation. This process continues sequentially until the termination criteria are satisfied. To validate the workflow and obtain a better insight into the detailed steps, we first optimized a 1D problem. The workflow is then implemented for a 3D synthetic reservoir model to perform RO in a realistic field scenario (8-dimensional and 45-dimensional optimization problems). The workflow is compared with two other commonly used gradient-free algorithms in the literature: particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA). The main contributions are (1) developing a new optimization workflow to address the computational cost of flow simulation in RO, (2) demonstrating the effectiveness of the workflow on a 3D grid-based model, (3) investigating the robustness of the workflow against randomness in initiation samples and discussing the results, and (4) comparing the workflow with other optimization algorithms, showing that it achieves same near-optimal results while requiring only a fraction of the computational time.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135663739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional and statistical models are inadequate for predicting ROP in complex formations, as they fail to conduct a comprehensive analysis of method validity and data validity. In this study, geological conditions parameters, mechanical parameters, and drilling fluid parameters were extracted as prediction parameters, and an intelligent ROP prediction method was constructed under method-data dual validity analysis. The effectiveness of the ROP prediction method is studied by comparing five machine learning algorithms. The data validity of ROP prediction is also studied by changing the input data type, input data dimension, and input data sampling method. The results show that the effectiveness of the long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network method was found to be superior to support vector regression (SVR), backpropagation (BP) neural network, deep belief neural network (DBN), and convolutional neural network (CNN) methods. For data validity, the best input data type for ROP prediction is geological conditions parameters after principal component analysis (PCA) combined with mechanical parameters and drilling fluid parameters. The lower limit of input data dimension validity is seven input parameters, and the accuracy of prediction results increases with the increase of data dimension. The optimal data sampling method is one point per meter, and the error of the prediction result increases and then decreases with the increase of sampling points. Through step-by-step analysis of method validity, input data type, input data dimension, and input data sampling method, the range, size, and mean of error values of ROP prediction results were significantly reduced, and the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of the prediction results of the test set is only 18.40%, while the MAPE of the prediction results of the case study is only 11.60%.

Computational problems in multiphase numerical simulation include phase labeling issues and path dependencies that can create discontinuities. To mitigate hysteresis, modeling kr as a state function that honors changes in physical parameters like wettability is a promising solution. In this research, we apply the state function concept to develop a physics-informed data-driven approach for predicting kr in the space of its state parameters. We extend the development of the relative permeability equation-of-state (kr-EoS) to create a predictive physically-constrained model using artificial neural networks (ANNs). We predict kr as a function of phase saturation (S) and phase connectivity (χ^), as well as the specific S-χ^ path taken during the displacement while maintaining other state parameters constant such as wettability, pore structure, and capillary number. We use numerical data generated from pore-network modeling (PNM) simulations to test the predictive capability of the EoS. Physical limits within S-χ^ space are used to constrain the model and improve its predictability outside of the region of measured data. We find that the predicted relative permeabilities result in a smooth and physically consistent estimate. Our results show that ANN can more accurately estimate kr surface compared to using a high-order polynomial response surface. With only a limited amount of drainage and imbibition data with an initial phase saturation greater than 0.7, we provide a good prediction of kr from ANN for all other initial conditions, over the entire S-χ^ space. Finally, we show that we can predict the specific path taken in the S-χ^ space along with the corresponding kr for any initial condition and flow direction, making the approach practical when phase connectivity information is unavailable. This research demonstrates the first application of a physics-informed data-driven approach for the prediction of relative permeability using ANN.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136161222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the effects of fracturing fluids imbibition on CBM recovery are still unclear. In this study, spontaneous and forced water imbibition experiments in methane-bearing low-volatile bituminous (LVB) coal were conducted at various gas adsorption equilibrium pressures, following which methane desorption and diffusion experiments were performed. These experiments simulated the complete process of fracturing fluid imbibition during well shut-in and subsequent methane production upon reopening, which is helpful in understanding the impact of fracturing fluid imbibition on CBM production. The results show that water imbibition displaces adsorbed methane in the coal matrix, and with reservoir pressure increasing, the displaced effect decreases. Furthermore, the forced imbibition (FI) displaces less methane than the spontaneous imbibition (SI) due to water rapidly filling fractures and blocking methane migration out of the matrix in the FI. In the initial stages of gas production following spontaneous or forced water imbibition, the displaced methane diffuses out of the coal at a rapid rate and then slows down. Furthermore, in the case of FI, a significant amount of residual gas remains after desorption and diffusion due to the water blocking effect. However, the water blocking effect has a minimal impact on coal undergoing SI. In terms of desorption and diffusion, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the effects of fracturing fluids imbibition on recovery of CBM, which is useful for practical shut-in operations following hydraulic fracturing in LVB coal seams.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134935458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cutting speed, feed rate, and cutting thickness are used as parameters while cutting power (P), material removal rate (MRR), and tool chip temperature (T) are used as optimization objectives with the trade-offs between the three objectives considered. The full factorial design is used to carry out the experiments and the combination of grey relational analysis (GRA) method and entropy weight method is used to determine the weight of the three objectives. The influence of cutting parameters on the optimization objectives is analyzed, the mathematical model between cutting parameters and a single objective is established, and the adaptive weight particle swarm algorithm is used to optimize the coefficients of this model. The relationship between the multiobjective model and cutting parameters is established using a multiple nonlinear regression model, and the selection of interaction terms is completed using a stepwise regression method. The reliability of the model is also verified.

The aging process extended up to 56 days for assessing mechanical properties and up to 28 days for evaluating hydraulic sealability through dedicated tests. The obtained results unveil a nonlinear correlation between the designated temperature and pumping duration. Notably, the issue of fluid loss emerged as a significant concern for these geopolymers. The early-age strength development of the mix design containing zinc demonstrates adherence to industry norms by achieving minimal strength requirements within 24 hours of curing. Zinc plays a pivotal role as a strength enhancer during the initial curing stages of geopolymers, both under ambient conditions and at elevated temperatures (70℃). However, upon extended curing at elevated temperatures, zinc’s impact slightly diminishes compared with the unmodified mix design. After around 30 days of curing, a consecutive reaction occurs in both the unmodified and zinc-modified mix designs.

Observation wells are widely considered in geologic CO2 storage (GCS) projects where the pressure perturbation induced by CO2 injection is measured. In this work, we use analytical and numerical modeling tools along with field data to examine the pressure behavior in GCS projects before and after CO2 arrival at an observation well. Before CO2 arrival, a baseline pressure trend is established which corresponds to single-phase brine flow across the observation well (approximated by the Theis solution). Therefore, analysis of early time pressure data is straightforward, provides the single-phase flow characteristics (mobility and storativity), and helps in establishing a baseline pressure change that can be extended beyond the single-phase flow period at the observation well. Upon CO2 arrival, a departure from this baseline trend is expected. For the pressure to detect the CO2 arrival at an observation well, the departure from baseline pressure behavior must be significant and well above the background noise levels. We use existing analytical models to determine the strength of the expected pressure departure signal from the baseline trend upon CO2 arrival. The strength of the expected pressure departure is found to be directly proportional to the change in the mobility upon CO2 arrival. Larger change in the flow mobility—compared with single-phase brine mobility—results in a stronger pressure departure signal. In addition, the departure is found to be upward (downward) from the baseline pressure trend when the mobility ratio is less (more) than unity. We present a pressure analysis approach through application to synthetic and field data and show the characteristic pressure behavior before and after CO2 arrival. We show that while generally the pressure can be either above or below the expected baseline pressure trend, it would be likely above the baseline upon CO2 arrival. This is because the mobility ratio becomes less than unity after CO2 arrival. We show that depending on the reservoir characteristics, changes in the pressure trend may or may not be sufficient to detect the CO2 arrival.","PeriodicalId":22252,"journal":{"name":"SPE Journal","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135605298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
