Description
- In the drilling and completion industry, it is often desirable to position tracer materials including tracer substances at positions within a borehole system to map produced fluids. The tracer materials are generally disposed as plastic blocks attached in or on tubular members with or without screens or other filtration material associated therewith. The blocks are traditionally put in place at a place of manufacture of the tubular member and or screen member. While the products available are effective in their intended use, there are drawbacks to the structural requirements necessary to placing such blocks and as noted they are generally disposed on tools at a place of manufacture rather than at a destination when more would be known about just what types of tracers might be most useful. As the art is always interested in improvements in efficiency, it will well receive alternate configurations and methods that yield such efficiency.
- A screen including a screen segment having a mesh and a shroud radially outwardly of the mesh, a tracer material configured with a greater surface area than volume disposed radially inwardly of the shroud.
- A method for making a tracer screen including selecting a pattern of shroud holes in a screen cartridge for application of tracer material, applying tracer material into the selected holes, migrating the tracer material outwardly from the hole and between a mesh and the shroud of the screen cartridge.
- A borehole system including a borehole, a tubing string disposed in the borehole, and a tracer screen having tracer material with a greater surface area than volume disposed between a shroud and a mesh or a screen cartridge.
- The following descriptions should not be considered limiting in any way. With reference to the accompanying drawings, like elements are numbered alike:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a mesh retainer type cartridge of the prior art; -
FIG. 2 is a illustration of the application of a particular geometric configuration of tracer material to the cartridge ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 2A is a view illustrating one possible pattern of the injected tracer material; -
FIG. 2B is a view illustrating one possible pattern of the injected tracer material and -
FIG. 3 is a view of a downhole system employing the screen - A detailed description of one or more embodiments of the disclosed apparatus and method are presented herein by way of exemplification and not limitation with reference to the Figures.
- Referring to
FIG. 1 , a prior art cartridgetype screen segment 10 is illustrated. Thesegment 10 includes amesh 12 positioned radially inwardly of aperforated shroud 14. Themesh 12 may be a woven material, a wrapped material, etc. as is known to the art as filtration media for use downhole. If a cartridge of this type is to be used over aholed basepipe 16 known to the art and the configuration is one in which thecartridge 10 is dimensioned such that an inside dimension thereof is close in measurement to an outside diameter of theholed basepipe 16 upon which it will be installed, there is no room for a tracer block in a common position between theholed basepipe 16 and thecartridge 10 and hence the art has no effective way to utilize a tracer with such construction. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , a method for making a screen of the type described above into atracer screen 20. For the embodiment, a tracer material is configured as a compound of a particular tracer substance (which may be a chemical or a radioactive material, non-halogenated compounds, inorganic salts, nitrate salts, alcohols, dyes, natural isotopes such as carbon-13, halogenated compounds such as fluorinated benzoic acid or sulfonic acid napthalenes, or combinations including one or more of the foregoing; a fluorescent substance such as: noble metals (gold, silver, platinum), fluorides, rare earth oxides (lanthanides), and combinations including one or more of the foregoing, and insoluble particle tracers (including nanoscale particles).) and a carrier fluid (which may be, for example, epoxy, silicone, precipitated silica, organic polymers, polyvinyl acetate, acrylates, ethylene vinyl acetate. Also organic polymers susceptible to hydrolysis such as polyurethanes, polyesters, polypeptides, polyesteramides, polysulfides, and polyhydroxy acids or a combination including one or more of the foregoing) that either has a viscosity allowing application but not allowing flowing without extreme application of pressure from anapplicator 22 or exhibits a lower viscosity for easier application and is then hardenable (or otherwise becomes too viscous for flowing) within a practical period of time. In the particular embodiment ofFIG. 2 , it may be seen that theapplicator 22 is a hand type applicator common to home projects. In such embodiment a tracer substance is added to an epoxy or silicone base material to create theparticular tracer material 24 to be applied and which is then squeezed into an area directly radially inwardly of theshroud 14 and predominantly radially outwardly of themesh 12. It will be appreciated that infiltration of thetracer material 24 in themesh 12 will also occur at least to some extent. Created is a tracer material geometry that exhibits more surface area than volume, in contrast to prior art tracer material blocks such that tracer material may be disposed in a location (essentially between the mesh and the shroud) that is not possible in prior art tracer blocks. A greater area then is exposed to the produce fluid to ensure that tracer substances are indeed dissolved within the flow for positive identification downstream in the process. - Because some areas of the
mesh 12 may be occluded by thetracer material 24, it is desirable to applytracer material 24 to holes in a skipping pattern. Examples of appropriate patterns include: a checkerboard pattern, a helical pattern, etc. An example is illustrated inFIGS. 2A and 2B . One consideration for an effective pattern is to facilitate an even flow of produced fluid over the area of the screen. - Screens with tracer materials of the type described herein may be employed wherever needed in a downhole system such as that illustrated in
FIG. 3 . Illustrated is aborehole 30 having a string 32 therein, the string including a number oftracer screens 20 withtracer material 24 as described herein. - Set forth below are some embodiments of the foregoing disclosure:

Further, it should further be noted that the terms “first,” “second,” and the like herein do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another. The modifier “about” used in connection with a quantity is inclusive of the stated value and has the meaning dictated by the context (e.g., it includes the degree of error associated with measurement of the particular quantity).
- The teachings of the present disclosure may be used in a variety of well operations. These operations may involve using one or more treatment agents to treat a formation, the fluids resident in a formation, a wellbore, and/or equipment in the wellbore, such as production tubing. The treatment agents may be in the form of liquids, gases, solids, semi-solids, and mixtures thereof.
