Drilling Technology of the M-1 Well in Hot Dry Rock of Matouying,Tangshan北大核心CSCD

This paper presents the general situation and key techniques of the drilling well M-1 in Matouying dry hot rock exploration hole, Leting, Tangshan, Hebei Province. A series of problems have been studied on the sea water drilling fluid, high temperature resistant fresh water drilling fluid, screw composite drilling technique, screw hole coring technology, and high temperature, thus solving the difficulty of sea water drilling fluid well protection, poor stability of drilling fluid under high temperature, and low efficiency in hot dry rock drilling and coring drilling to ensure the safety of the borehole and improve drilling efficiency. The high temperature resistant double condensation and double density cement slurry system and relevant technical measures are adopted to ensure the quality of cementing in the high temperature environment. Through the understanding and analysis of the strata in this area, this work provides valuable experience for drilling in the same strata in the future. The final hole depth of the M-1 well in Matouying is 4502. 11m, and hot dry rock with a temperature of 150t is found at 3965 m, which is the first hot dry rock well with a temperature of more than 150°C in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region so far. © 2022 Editorial Board of Geology and Exploration.

Approximately-Balanced Drilling in Daqing Oilfield

The Daqing oilfield is a multilayered heterogeneous oil field where the pressure are different in the same vertical profile causing many troubles to the adjustment well drillings. The approximatelybalanced drilling technique has been developed and proved to be efficient and successful in Daqing oilfield. This paper discusses the application of approximately-balanced drilling technique under the condition of multilayered pressure in Daqing oilfield, including the prediction of fornmtion pressure, the pressure discharge technique for the drilling well and the control of the density of drilling fluid.

Petroleum geoscience in Norden - exploration, production and organization

Offshore exploration in Norway and Denmark-in the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea-has involved drilling about 850 wildcat wells, resulting in about 300 oil and gas finds, of which 84 are fields with production. The recoverable resources of all these finds total about 65 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Almost all these hydrocarbons come from a Jurassic source and the main reservoirs and traps are Jurassic sandstones in fault blocks and Paleocene sandstones or Cretaceous chalks in gentle domes. The article describes four major fields-Ekofisk, Gullfaks, Ormen Lange and SnФhvitto illustrate some of the many challenges in developing and producing the hydrocarbons.
Elsewhere in Norden, there has been much less exploration. Drilling results have mostly been negative in mainland Sweden, onshore Denmark, onshore Svalbard and on- and offshore West Greenland. Minor oil finds have been made in Palaeozoic rocks in the Baltic Sea. The first wells have recently been drilled off the Faroe Islands, resulting in one discovery. No drilling has taken place on- or offshore East Greenland.
As a result of the hydrocarbon activities in Norway and Denmark, petroleum geoscience there has flourished, with 2000 geoscientists currently employed in the industry, many technical innovations made, a wealth of publically available information and a great increase in the understanding of the geology.

1. IntroductionThe effectiveness of the DC resistivity method in solving subsurface water problems and in minimizing drilling costs has been established in many parts of the world (e. g. Breusse, 1963; Zohdy and Jackson, 1969; Zohdy, 1969). Within the framework of a hydrogeological and geologic economic project between the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and the Federal Republic of Germany, Heimbach and Meiser (1969) and Worzyk (1982) used the method in the south section of the Dead Sea tran…     

Application of wellhead suction anchor technology in the second production test of natural gas hydrates in the South China Sea

Traditional suction anchor technology is mainly used in the fields of subsea structure bearing foundations,single-point mooring systems and offshore wind power. It is characterized by providing sufficient lateral and vertical bearing capacities and lateral bending moment. The anchor structure of a traditional suction anchor structure is improved with wellhead suction anchor technology, where a central pipe is added as a channel for drilling and completion operations.

The Equilibrium Coefficient Kp and Petroleum Exploration:Design of the New Generation of Petroleum Exploration Instrument

The main reason why the application of nuclear technology in petroleum exploration has not yet been accepted by most exploration workers is that they are not clear about the homologous distribution features of oil and gas fields and radioactive radiation. The authors hold that the disequilibrium of uranium, radium and radon as a natural radioactive series is the basic feature in the use of this technology in petroleum exploration. The invention Gamma-ray Spectral Measurement of the Equilibium Coefficient Kp and Its Embodiment of the senior author now can readily solve that problem and replace the impedient measure of normalization of uranium and potassium to thorium that had to be proposed before. Application of this impedient measure has some limitations. In areas where the surface is covered by beach or river sands, thorium minerals such as monazite may be concentrated by placering. This could result in local thorium highs that would yield local uranium and potassium lows after normalization to thoriu
