考虑地应力和CO2腐蚀影响的水泥环密封完整性分析

Sealing Integrity Analysis of Cement Sheath Considering the Influence of Ground Stress and CO2 Corrosion

  • 摘要: CO2封存过程中,CCUS井井筒水泥环长期处于交变应力与CO2腐蚀耦合工况下,严重威胁井筒组合体密封完整性。该文利用ABAQUS软件建立了考虑地应力影响且受套管内压和CO2腐蚀耦合作用的井筒组合体有限元分析模型,分析和探讨了套管内压、腐蚀时间及地应力耦合作用下井筒组合体的密封完整性失效行为。结果表明,高套管内压和地应力耦合作用下,水泥环的应力增大,发生了不可恢复的大塑性应变,套管-水泥环界面产生微间隙,井筒完整性失效;套管内压、CO2腐蚀和地应力耦合作用下,较低套管内压时腐蚀对井筒组合体密封完整性的影响存在积极响应;因地应力影响,套管-水泥环界面微间隙受腐蚀时间的影响不明显,但相较于未腐蚀水泥环,腐蚀增大了微间隙产生的临界压力,对保持井筒组合体密封完整性有一定的积极作用。

     

    Abstract: In the process of CO2 storage, the cement sheath of CCUS well may be exposed to the coupling of alternating stress and CO2 corrosion, which greatly affects the sealing integrity of wellbore assembly. In this paper, the finite element analysis model of wellbore assembly considering the influence of the ground stress and the coupling effect of casing internal pressure and CO2 corrosion is established by using ABAQUS software. The sealing integrity failure behavior of wellbore assembly under the coupling effect of casing internal pressure, corrosion time and ground stress is analyzed and discussed. The results show that under the coupling effect of high casing internal pressure and ground stress, the stress of cement sheath increases, and the unrecoverable large plastic strain occurs. The micro-gap is generated at the casing-cement sheath interface, and the wellbore integrity fails. Under the coupling effect of casing internal pressure, CO2 corrosion and ground stress, corrosion has a positive response to the maintenance of the sealing integrity of the wellbore assembly at lower casing internal pressure. Due to the influence of ground stress, the micro-gap at the casing-cement ring interface is not significantly affected by the corrosion time. However, compared with the uncorroded cement ring, corrosion increases the critical pressure generated by the micro-gap, which has a certain positive effect on maintaining the sealing integrity of the wellbore assembly.
