Definitions
- This specification for a patent concerns a system for autonomously performing the monitoring of the operational parameters of oil and natural gas wells, such as pressure and temperature, but not being limited to these, and for transmitting this information, by means of devices, for example, spheres, but not being limited to this geometric form, equipped with an internal electronic data storage circuit (memory).
- devices for example, spheres, but not being limited to this geometric form, equipped with an internal electronic data storage circuit (memory).
- patent document US5829520 concerns a method and apparatus for testing, completing and monitoring well operations, including a data acquisition device for monitoring and recording characteristics of the well and/or reservoir, which is also capable of controlling fluid flow, and a method for monitoring and/or recording at least one characteristic of the well during its testing, completion and/or maintenance, said device including an assembly comprising a drilling sensor, with an optional flow port, for allowing fluid flow while detecting the characteristics of the well and/or reservoir, and also having a microprocessor, transmission device and control device, for processing and transmitting data in real time, also having a memory device for recording data related to the monitored characteristics of the well and / or reservoir.
- the main drawback of the development mentioned above lies in the fact that the retrieval of the information stored in the memory device is carried out using a data retrieval mandrel, which is implanted inside the device, and which is designed to be aligned with sensor and memory devices, so that the information can be transferred selectively as needed.
- the proposed system is used to autonomously measure well pressure and temperature, but is not limited to these parameters, and to send the collected data to the surface, using spheres, or elements of any geometric shape suitable for the application, with a built-in memory, that will be transported to the surface by the flow of oil in the production chain, and which will be retrieved to have their data read.
- the system consists of three main elements; a well-bottom module; spheres with a built-in memory; and a surface collector with a memory reader.
- the well-bottom module which constitutes the object of the present invention, is composed of a mechanical body installed in the nipple of the production line, located below the packer, by means of specific locking , with sensors, batteries, acquisition and management circuits, a wireless data recording device, a support for the spheres and means for their release.
- the power for the system is supplied by a primary cell battery, classified to 100°C or higher, with low self-discharge characteristics.
- the pressure and temperature sensor used is a resonant crystal transducer, MEMS or equivalent.
- the control electronics are responsible for reading and storing pressure and temperature sensor data, measuring battery consumption, controlling system events, monitoring the integrity of the system, transferring data to the spheres through the recording device and activating the ball releaser.
- the data recording device is responsible for transferring the data to the memory incorporated into the spheres, which occurs without contact, through a proprietary wireless technology system.
- the spherical support and launcher store the memory-carrying units that are released individually within the oil flow to the surface, with its electromechanical unit possessing fail-safe mechanisms and sensors for release validation, and also having springs and two compartments for sequencing the release, and always releasing one sphere at a time.
- the memory spheres store information that will be sent to the surface; they possess capacity for at least 50,000 data samples, and are designed and classified for operation in a well-bottom environment.
- the surface subsystem which does not form part of the scope of the present invention, consists of equipment located along the pipe outlet, and which will be responsible for the detection and recovery of the sphere, and which also possesses equipment for reading the memory, and software for processing and organizing the recovered data.
- the sphere detection device will be responsible for detecting its arrival on the surface, and after detection, the operator will be alerted and retrieve the sphere with the recovery device.
- the recovery device of the sphere will be responsible for collecting the spheres released by the well module without interrupting production, and the data stored in the memory are collected by the reading device, which transfers the information to the computer.
- Figure 1 illustrates a semi-cross section perspective view of the pipe that houses the proposed system in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 2 illustrates an expanded view of Figure 1 , showing the constructive arrangement of the proposed system in accordance with the present invention.
- Figures 3 through 6 illustrate the release of a sphere with recorded data, and the position of another sphere for recording. PREFERRED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
- the entire system for permanently monitoring the operational parameters of oil and natural gas wells proposed herein is housed inside a pipe or shirt (1 ), which also houses a separate compartment for the memory spheres (2), and where a well-bottom sensor (3) is also installed, through which the parameters related to the physical magnitudes of interest are acquired, which are transmitted to the control electronics (4), where both the well-bottom sensor and control electronics are powered by a battery (5), where the control electronics are also responsible for interrogating the sensors, processing the signals, and managing the entire system, including the electrical power, recording the information from the sensors and other information (for example, the date, time and conditions of the system, etc.) in the memory circuits embedded in the devices responsible for their transportation to the surface, which may be spheres, but are not limited to this geometric shape, and where the recording in the memory circuits (Cm) is performed by wireless electromagnetic transmission, using transmitting antennas (6) and a receiver of the memory circuit.
- a pipe or shirt which also houses a separate compartment for the memory spheres (2), and where a well
- the spheres will be released through a solenoid, engine, or any other electromechanical device.
- the spheres can be recorded and released at regular or varied intervals, according to the system schedule, and in accordance with the conditions of the sensors and/or the system.
- the spheres are carried to the surface by the flow of fluid that drains through the well, and they are collected on the surface by an unspecified device, and their readings are performed through a wired or wireless reading system, and/or with or without electrical contact with the memory circuits.
