Definitions
- the present invention relates to expandable sand screens and other expandable tubulars. More particularly, the present invention relates to a profiled encapsulation for use with an expandable sand screen or other expandable downhole apparatus.
- the profiled encapsulation can house instrumentation lines or control lines in a wellbore.
- Hydrocarbon wells are typically formed with a central wellbore that is supported by steel casing.
- the steel casing lines the borehole formed in the earth during the drilling process. This creates an annular area between the casing and the borehole, which is filled with cement to further support and form the wellbore.
- Some wells are produced by perforating the casing of the wellbore at selected depths where hydrocarbons are found. Hydrocarbons migrate from the formation, through the perforations, and into the cased wellbore. In some instances, a lower portion of a wellbore is left open, that is, it is not lined with casing. This is known as an open hole completion. In that instance, hydrocarbons in an adjacent formation migrate directly into the wellbore where they are subsequently raised to the surface, possibly through an artificial lift system.
- Open hole completions carry the potential of higher production than a cased hole completion. They are frequently utilized in connection with horizontally drilled boreholes. However, open hole completions present various risks concerning the integrity of the open wellbore. In that respect, an open hole leaves aggregate material, including sand, free to invade the wellbore. Sand production can result in premature failure of artificial lift and other downhole and surface equipment. Sand can build up in the casing and tubing to obstruct well flow. Particles can compact and erode surrounding formations to cause liner and casing failures. In addition, produced sand becomes difficult to handle and dispose at the surface. Ultimately, open holes carry the risk of complete collapse of the formation into the wellbore.
- well screens are often employed downhole along the uncased portion of the wellbore.
- One form of well screen recently developed is the expandable sand screen, designated by the Assignee as ESS ® .
- the ESS is constructed from three composite layers, including a filter media.
- the filter media allows hydrocarbons to invade the wellbore, but filters sand and other unwanted particles from entering.
- the sand screen is connected to production tubing at an upper end and the hydrocarbons travel to the surface of the well via the tubing.
- the sand screen is expanded downhole against the adjacent formation in order to preserve the integrity of the formation during production.
- an expandable sand screen which consists of a perforated base pipe, a woven filtering material, and a protective, perforated outer shroud. Both the base pipe and the outer shroud are expandable, and the woven filter is typically arranged over the base pipe in sheets that partially cover one another and slide across one another as the sand screen is expanded, or is expanded directly.
- the expanded tubular or tool can then be expanded by a cone-shaped object urged along its inner bore or by an expander tool having radially outward extending rollers that are fluid powered from a tubular string.
- expansion means like these, the expandable tubular or tool is subjected to outwardly radial forces that urge the expanding walls against the open formation or parent casing.
- the expandable components are stretched past their elastic limit, thereby increasing the inner and outer diameter of the tubular.
- a major advantage to the use of expandable sand screen in an open wellbore like the one described herein is that once expanded, the annular area between the screen and the wellbore is mostly eliminated, and with it the need for a gravel pack.
- the ESS or other solid expandable tubular is expanded to a point where its outer wall places a stress on the wall of the wellbore, thereby providing support to the walls of the wellbore to prevent dislocation of particles.
- Solid expandable tubulars are oftentimes used in conjunction with an expandable sand screen to provide a zonal isolation capability.
- downhole tools or instruments include sliding sleeves, submersible electrical pumps, downhole chokes, and various sensing devices.
- These devices are controlled from the surface via hydraulic control lines, electrical control lines, mechanical control lines, fiber optics and/or a combination thereof.
- the operator may wish to place a series of pressure and/or temperature sensors every ten meters within a portion of the hole, connected by a fiber optic control line. This line would extend into that portion of the wellbore where an expandable sand screen or other solid expandable tubular or tool has been placed.
- control lines or instrumentation lines In order to protect the control lines or instrumentation lines, the lines are typically placed into small metal tubings which are affixed external to the expandable tubular and the production tubing within the wellbore.
- control lines In addition, in completions utilizing known non-expandable gravel packs, the control lines have been housed within a metallic rectangular cross-sectioned container.
- this method of housing control lines or instrumentation downhole is not feasible in the context of the new, expandable completions now being offered.
- control lines behind an expandable tubular interferes with an important function, which is to provide a close fit between the outside surface of the expandable tubular, and the formation wall.
- the absence of a close fit between the outside surface of the expandable tubular and the formation wall creates a vertical channel outside of the tubular, allowing formation fluids to migrate between formations therein. This, in turn, causes inaccurate pressure, temperature, or other readings from downhole instrumentation, particularly when the well is shut in for a period of time, or may provide a channel for erosive wear.
- an encapsulation for control lines or instrumentation lines which is not rectangular in shape, but is profiled so as to allow a close fit between an expandable tubular and a formation wall or parent casing.
- an encapsulation which resides between the outside surface of an expandable tubular and the formation wall, and which does not leave a vertical channel outside of the expandable tubular when it is expanded against the formation wall.
- such an encapsulation device which is durable enough to withstand abrasions incurred while being run into the wellbore, but which is sufficiently deformable as to be deformed in arcuate fashion as to closely reside between an expanded tubular and the wall of a wellbore, whether cased or open.
- the encapsulation of the present invention can be used to house instrumentation lines, control lines, or instruments downhole.
- the encapsulation resides between an expandable downhole tool, such as an expandable sand screen, and the wall of the wellbore.
- the encapsulation is specially profiled to allow the downhole tool, e.g., ESS, to be expanded into the wall of the wellbore without leaving a channel outside of the tool through which formation fluids might vertically migrate.
- the encapsulation is useful in both cased hole and open hole completions.
- the profile is generally derived from the bore hole inner diameter (i.d.) (or parent casing i.d.) and the outer diameter (o.d.) ofthe expanded tubular.
- Figure 1 is a section view showing an open hole wellbore with a typical expandable sand screen and tubulars disposed therein. A profiled encapsulation of the present invention is shown in cross-section running from the surface to the depth of the expandable completion.
- Figure 2 is a top section view of an expandable sand screen completion within an open wellbore.
- the sand screen is in its unexpanded state.
- Visible is a top view of a profiled encapsulation of the present invention residing in the sand screen- formation annulus.
- Figure 3 is a top section view of an expandable sand screen before expansion, and a blow-up view of a portion of the expandable sand screen.
- Figure 4 is a top section view of an expandable sand screen within an open wellbore.
- the sand screen is in its expanded state.
- Visible is a top view of a profiled encapsulation of the present invention residing in the sand screen-formation annulus.
- Figure 5 depicts the expandable sand screen of Figure 4, expanded against a cased hole wellbore.
- Figure 1 is a section view showing an open hole wellbore 40.
- the wellbore 40 includes a central wellbore which is lined with casing 42.
- the annular area between the casing 42 and the earth is filled with cement 46 as is typical in well completion.
- Extending downward from the central wellbore is an open hole wellbore 48.
- a formation 50 is shown adj acent the wellbore 48.
- a downhole tool 20 Disposed in the open wellbore 48 is a downhole tool 20 to be expanded.
- the tool 20 is an expandable sand screen (ESS ® ).
- ESS ® expandable sand screen
- the tool 20 could be any expandable downhole apparatus.
- An ESS 20 is hung within the wellbore 40 from a hanging apparatus 32.
- the hanging apparatus is a packer (not shown).
- the hanging apparatus is a liner 30 and liner hanger 32.
- a separate packer 34 may be employed to seal the annulus between the liner 30 and the production tubular 44.
- FIG. 1 Also depicted in FIG. 1 is an encapsulation 10 of the present invention.
- the encapsulation 10 is shown running from the surface to the liner hanger 32.
- the encapsulation 10 is secured to the production tubular 44 by clamps, shown schematically at 18.
- Clamps 18 are typically secured to the production tubular 44 approximately every ten meters.
- the clamps 18 are designed to expand with the tool 20 when it is expanded.
- the encapsulation 10 passes through the liner hanger 32 (or utilized hanging apparatus), and extends downward to a designated depth within the wellbore 40.
- the encapsulation 10 extends into the annular region (shown as 28 in FIG. 2) between the expandable sand screen 20 and the open hole wellbore 48. Note that the expandable sand screen 20 of Figure 1 has already been expanded against the open hole formation 50 so that no annular region remains.
- the ESS 20 is thus in position for production of hydrocarbons.
- FIG 2 presents a top section view of an encapsulation 10 of the present invention.
- the encapsulation 10 resides in this depiction within an open hole wellbore 48.
- the encapsulation 10 is disposed in the annular region 28 defined by the expandable sand screen 20 and the formation wall 48.
- the encapsulation 10 is designed to serve as a housing for control lines or instrumentation lines 62 or control instrumentation (not shown).
- control lines 62 include any type of data acquisition lines, communication lines, fiber optics, cables, sensors, and downhole “smart well” features.
- the encapsulation 10 may optionally also house metal tubulars 60 for holding such control or instrumentation lines 62.
- the encapsulation 10 is specially profiled to closely fit between the sand screen 20 and the surrounding formation wall 48 after the sand screen 20 has been expanded. In this way, no vertical channel is left within the annular region 28 after the sand screen 20 is been expanded.
- an arcuate configuration is employed for the encapsulation 20 whereby at least one of the walls 12 and 14 is arcuate in shape. In the preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 2, both walls 12 and 14 are arcuate such that a crescent-shape profile is defined.
- the encapsulation 10 shown in FIG. 2 comprises a first arcuate wall 12 and a second arcuate wall 14 sharing a first end 15' and a second end 15".
- the outside wall 12 be arcuate in design.
- the encapsulation 10 is normally fabricated from a thermoplastic material which is durable enough to withstand abrasions while being run into the wellbore 40. At the same time, the encapsulation 10 material must be sufficiently malleable to allow the encapsulation to generally deform to the contour of the wellbore 48. This prevents annular flow behind the sand screen 20.
- the encapsulation 10 is preferably clamped to the expandable tubular 20 by expandable clamps (not shown). The expandable clamps are designed to provide minimal restriction to the tubular i.d.
- the sand screen 20 is in its unexpanded state.
- the sand screen 20 is constructed from three composite layers.
- Both the base pipe 22 and the outer shroud 26 are configured to permit hydrocarbons to flow therethrough, such as through slots (e.g., 23) or perforations formed therein.
- the filter material 24 is held between the base pipe 22 and the outer shroud 26, and serves to filter sand and other particulates from entering the sand screen 20 and the production tubular 44.
- the sand screen 20 typically is manufactured in sections which can be joined end-to-end at the well-site during downhole completion. It is within the scope of this invention to employ an encapsulation 10 with one or more sections of expandable sand screen 20 or other expandable downhole tool.
- the sand screen 20 is again shown in cross-section.
- a portion 20e of the sand screen 20 is shown in an expanded state, to demonstrate that the sand screen 20 remains sand tight after expansion. (Note that the expanded depiction is not to scale.)
- Radial force applied to the inner wall of the base pipe 22 forces the pipe 22 past its elastic limits and also expands the diameter of the base pipe perforations 23.
- the shroud 26 is expanded to a point of contact with the wellbore 48. Substantial contact between the sand screen 20 and the wellbore wall 48 places a slight stress on the formation 50, reducing the risk of particulate matter entering the wellbore 48. It also reduces the risk of vertical fluid flow behind the sand screen 20.
- Figure 4 is a top section view illustrating the wellbore 48 and the sand screen 20 expanded therein. Expansion is within the open wellbore 48 of FIG. 2. Visible is the top view of a profiled encapsulation of the present invention residing in the sand screen- formation annulus 28. The encapsulation 10 has been expanded by a conformed cone or roller apparatus or other expander tool (not shown) to provide a close fit between the sand screen 20 and the formation 48 such that no annular region 28 remains as would permit measurable vertical fluid movement behind the sand screen 20.
- Figure 5 depicts an expandable sand screen 20 expanded against a cased hole wellbore. Casing is shown as 52, and the cement is shown as 56.
- the casing 52 is perforated 53 to allow hydrocarbons to pass into and through the sand screen 20.
