Description
The present invention relates to a method of plugging a petroleum well permanently 5 or temporary, for instance, during a plug and abandonment operation (P&A) or during other operations where setting of a barrier in the well is required, by use of a multitask tool.
Background of the invention
Petroleum wells for the exploitation of oil and/or gas from a reservoir normally consist of an upper and outer conductor, which forms the base of the well, an upper casing arranged into and in extension of the conductor, and further down in the well more casings which are arranged into and overlaps the above casing. A production tubing string is located in the middle of the well for transporting petroleum from the bottom of the well to the earth’s surface or to the sea floor. Annuli will then be formed between the different casings.
Several wells will normally be drilled in a reservoir, where some of these are test wells which are only used for a shorter period prior to the production from the reservoir, and thus will be plugged after testing. If a test well is a successful well, such a well will normally be temporary plugged before the production starts, while a test well which is “dry”, i.e. a well in which the hydrocarbon content is too small to be worth producing, will be plugged permanently.
However, as the production from a well gradually falls, all wells will sooner or later have to be abandoned. Before the well is permanently abandoned, the well must be securely plugged, where there are official requirements with respect to how the work is to be carried out and to its completion.
For this purpose normally concrete plugs are used to provide a barrier in the well.
For example, a common requirement during plug and abandonment operations is to have a plug set inside an inner casing string and a further plug set in the annulus between the inner casing string and the outer casing string. The plug will then extend across the full cross sectional area of the well and seal both vertically and horizontally in the well.
In other operations, where setting of a barrier in a well is required, it may be that additional official requirements must be fulfilled.
Other common methods of performing annular sealing during temporary or permanent plugging of petroleum well are, all of which have the goal of having the
10335240_1 (GHMatters) P102171.AU
2014309518 26 Jun2018 cement placed in the annulus in a secure and safe manner via either holes in the tubular or by directly pumping in the annulus:
a) so-called shoot and squeeze, which displaces the fluid by use of an open-ended drill pipe or tubing, b) top down cementing, c) circulation squeeze, d) hesitation squeeze.
All of the above methods a)-d) have challenges relating to conform the cement over the full interval, this relates both to the placing as well as the logging. The placing of the cement is not conclusive as the cement will have to change place with the annulus fluids present in the annulus prior to placing barrier cement. The fluid which is present in the annulus needs to be evacuated/forced to either above or below the interval or through the formation rock by formation leak-off.
The current logging technologies, e.g. Ultra Sonic Imager Tool (USIT), Cement
Bond Log (CBL), Segmented Bond Tool (SBT), have proven very subjective regarding being able to conclusively confirming or verifying that the barrier is sealing properly in the annulus. The current designs of today’s logging tools are fully dependent on a logging-friendly downhole environment, i.e. the environment needs to fulfill certain demands to be able to perform a proper logging operation.
Document WO 2012/096580 Al describes a method and washing tool for combined cleaning of an annulus in a well across a longitudinal section of the well, and subsequent plugging of the longitudinal section.
It is, though, a challenge with the known solutions, as well as with the solution described in WO 2012/096580 Al, that the displacement of the washing fluid by the cement is non-satisfactorily, whereby this may, in worst case, result in a leaking cement plug. One of the embodiments described in said document includes dropping of the perforation tool subsequent to the perforation of the well, washing the perforated zone, setting the washing tool at a location in the well, and finally cementing in the perforated zone. Additionally, subsequent to that the cement has been introduced in the well, normally remaining washing fluid that has not been displaced during the cementing operation, has to be displaced by pressurizing the cement plug. However, such pressurizing of the cement plug may result in that the cement plug will not seal off the well properly, as not only the washing fluid will be forced or squeezed out of the tubular and into the surrounding formation, but also the cement. Furthermore, the cement plug will not be subjected to the same pressure over its length, whereby the cement may not be distributed equally around the periphery of the well.

Brief description of the drawings
These and other characteristics of the invention will be clear from the following description of a preferential form of embodiment, given as a non-restrictive example, with reference to the attached drawings wherein;
Fig. 1-7 show a sequence of displacing fluids present in a well annulus by the filling of a sealing fluid that will make sure that any pressurized formation areas are isolated and that they will not leak to surface, and

Detailed description of a preferential embodiment
Fig. 1 shows the situation after that a desired zone of the well has been perforated, washed and cleaned by a combined perforate and wash tool 1. However, it should be understood that a perforate gun is not used when there are existing perforations that can be employed for plugging. Otherwise the perforate gun is run with the wash tool 1 to make perforations. A packer or bridge plug, schematically illustrated in Figure 8, is also located further downhole to support the sealing material to be delivered into the tubular that is perforated above to support the sealant below the perforated section 10. The plug can be run in on the same trip or a different trip as the tool 1. The combined perforate and wash tool 1 has been lowered in the well until one lower set of sealing arrangements in the form of cups 2 is arranged below the lower
10335240_1 (GHMatters) P102171.AU
2014309518 26 Jun2018 part of the perforated section 10, the perforated section 10 being indicated by the broken lines, and one upper set of sealing arrangement in the form of cups 3 is just above the lower part of the perforated section 10. This allows for circulation of sealing fluid (colored light grey in the Figures) between the lower set of sealing arrangement 2 and the upper set of sealing arrangement 3, and out through a plurality of radial holes 4 arranged between the lower and upper sets of sealing arrangements 2, 3 in the tool 1 from an inside of the tubing 11. The flow pattern is disclosed by the arrows Al, A2 in the figures, forcing the sealing fluid from the bottom of the perforated section 10 radially outwardly towards the sidewalls of the casing 9 and perforated section 10, including formation 14, in operation of the tool
1. The tool 1 has an internal plugging device 7 which is closed during this part of the operation.
In Fig. 2 the pumping of the sealing fluid, e.g. cement, Thermaset®, Sandaband® or any other fluid, substances or other sealant or similar, has begun. Compared to what is disclosed in Fig. 1, the level of sealing fluid has risen in the well, to a position in which the sealing fluid is at a higher elevation than the tool 1 in the well.
In Fig. 3 the tool 1 has been pulled upwards in a controlled manner while pumping of the sealing fluid has proceeded. The level of the sealing fluid above the tool 1 is held substantially constant. Compared to Fig. 2, the sealing fluid above the perforate and wash tool 1 has begun to fill the tool 1 from the annulus via the perforate and wash tool 1 bypass system, allowing the sealing fluid to fill the void below the perforate and wash tool 1, ensuring solid sealing fluid across the cross sectional area of the perforated section 10. The bypass-system comprises a first set of openings 12 leading from the annulus towards the inside of the tool 1, bypassing the first and second sets of sealing arrangements 2, 3, and ending up in a second set of openings 13 arranged on the other side of the first and second sets of sealing arrangements 2, 3 compared to the first set of openings 12. The by-pass lines extending from the openings in the first set of openings 12 to the second set of openings 13, may be separate lines leading from one opening to another opening, or alternatively, one or more common lines for a plurality of openings. As can be seen from the Figure, sealing fluid can be “sucked” from above the tool 1 towards the area below the tool 1 due to a change in pressure over the tool 1, as the tool 1 is pulled towards the surface, leaving an area without sealing fluid. To solve this, the bypass-system allows for sealing fluid to flow through the first set of openings 12 through the tool 1 and out of the second set of openings 13, providing a whole continuous sealing fluid plug in the well (also shown by arrows A4, A5).
In Fig. 4 a continued pulling of the tool 1 has taken place until the perforate and wash tool 1 has been pulled above the perforated section 10 in the well and
10335240_1 (GHMatters) P102171.AU
2014309518 26 Jun2018 positioned inside a non-perforated tubular 15. Now the pumping of sealing fluid is stopped.
Now referring to Fig. 5 it is disclosed a situation where the internal plugging device 5 7, which can be opened and closed multiple times, has been opened. This might be done in numerous ways of remote actuation, e.g. electric actuation, hydraulic actuation or by using a ball element, a valve or dart, a mud pulse, cement etc. By opening the internal plugging element 7, the sealing fluid is allowed to be displaced through the tool 1. The bypass-system, which is described in greater detail above, allow for the sealing fluid to be displaced through the bypass-system and up to a location above the tool 1. The displacement of the sealing fluid is disclosed by arrows A6, A7, i.e. in through the second set of openings 13, further through the tool 1 and out of the first set of openings 12. However, it should be understood that the displacement of the sealing fluid may be done the opposite way. The tool 1 is continued to be pulled upwards until the sealing fluid is placed in the well as desired.
With reference to Fig. 6 it is disclosed a situation where the tool 1 has been pulled above the top of the sealing fluid. A cleaning process of the tool 1 has been performed, e.g. by pumping washing fluid through the inside of the tubing 11 and down through the tool 1 and the open internal plugging device 7. By this arrangement, washed fluids can flow into the second set of openings 13, up through the tool 1, and out of the first set of openings 12. The cleaning fluid is preferably another fluid than the sealing fluid, and such fluids are known to the person skilled in the art.
Fig. 7 discloses a situation where it is performed a squeeze of excess fluids in the well. Sealing elements 16 are arranged around the tubing 11 and the squeeze is performed by pushing the tubing 11 and tool 1 downwards into the well. Another way to do this is to be able to close ports 13 so that there is no need for the seal 16 and move the tool 1 downhole, with or without fluid moving through the tool 1. At the same time a fluid will be run through the tubing 11. Alternatively, the tool 1 can be pulled to the surface instead of squeezing in cases where squeezing of excess fluid is unnecessary.
Fig. 8 discloses an overview of the perforate and wash tool 1 according to an embodiment of the invention arranged in the well, subsequent to that first a perforating operation and thereafter a washing operation have taken place, but prior to that the sealing fluid is pumped into the well.
