Abstract

A model of a multibody system is established to investigate the dynamic response of an oil tube-shock absorber-perforating gun system in downhole perforation-test joint operation. In the model, the oil tube and perforating gun are modeled as elastic rods and the shock absorber is modeled as single particle system with damping and a spring. Two force continuity conditions are used to simulate the interactions among the three components. The perforation impact load is determined by an experiment of underwater explosion of perforating bullets. Using the model, the effects of charge quantity of perforating bullet, the number of shock absorbers, and the length of oil tube on the dynamic response of oil tube and packer are investigated. On this basis, a basic principle of the combination design of shock absorber and oil tube is proposed to improve the mechanical state of downhole tools. The study results can provide theoretical support for the design of downhole perforation-test joint operation.

Highlights

  • IntroductionThe purpose of this paper is to find an effective engineering calculation formula of shock load based on experiment data and establish a dynamic model considering the mutual coupling effect of oil tube, shock absorber, and perforation gun

  • The effects of three important parameters, charge quantity, shock absorber number, and tube length, on the dynamic behavior of downhole tools have been investigated in detail

  • (1) The shock absorber between the perforating gun and the tube string can obviously improve the mechanical state of the oil tube and packer

Summary

Introduction

The purpose of this paper is to find an effective engineering calculation formula of shock load based on experiment data and establish a dynamic model considering the mutual coupling effect of oil tube, shock absorber, and perforation gun. On this basis, the effects of main perforation parameters on the dynamic response of downhole tools are studied, focusing on the buckling of oil tube and the force acting on packer
