Abstract

In recent years, the exploration and development of China's Tarim Basin has moved towards ultra-deep and complex areas. With the increase in well depth and the influence of the geological characteristics of the Kuche Piedmont area, a series of drilling problems for 8000m-level ultra-deep wells in this area have been caused. As a result, a series of new drilling and completion technologies have been formed: ①Based on the tower standard I type well structure, the improved tower standard II-B\II-C type well structure is used to solve the drilling of two sets of salt formations. Difficulties; ②Optimizing UDM-2 oil-based drilling fluid, achieving an average hole diameter expansion rate of only 6.82%, reducing lost circulation and other complications; ③Designing and optimizing a new type of multi-edge PDC bit to significantly increase the average ROP; ④Application The industry-leading pre-measurement resistivity technology successfully predicts the salt bottom; ⑤The application of fine controlled pressure cementing technology to achieve effective sealing of high-pressure saline formations. In recent years, the Kuche Piedmont Block in the Tarim Basin has continued to tackle key problems in the application of ultra-deep well drilling and completion technologies, and has successfully reached a new level of 8000m, which has played an important role in supporting the development of deep oil and gas exploration and development business.
