摘要?
影響隨鉆電磁波電阻率測井儀器響應的因素主要來自兩方面:一方面是自身結構因素,包含線圈,、天線凹槽,、蓋板、鉆鋌等,,這些因素通過影響接收線圈感應電動勢的幅度,,進而對電阻率測量結果產生影響;另一方面因素來自外界環(huán)境,,包括井眼泥漿,、圍巖、侵入,、介電常數(shù)以及地層各向異性等,,測井過程中的儀器響應,是對井下多種不同介質的綜合響應,,為了達到探測原狀地層電阻率的目的,,需要扣除其它因素對儀器響應的影響。因而研究影響隨鉆電磁波電阻率測井響應的因素,,對測井資料的解釋與應用是十分必要的,。本文以隨鉆電磁波電阻率儀器WPR (Wave Propagation Resistivity)為算例,,建立真實的3維儀器結構,采用3維有限元3 D FEM (Three-Dimensional Finite Element Model)方法,,針對真實儀器自身結構以及外界環(huán)境因素對儀器響應造成的影響進行了數(shù)值模擬,,并利用解析解對本文的數(shù)值解進行了驗證。感應電動勢絕對值隨著線圈半徑,、線圈凹槽寬度,、天線槽長度、蓋板占空比增大而明顯增大,;隨著凹槽深度增加而減小,。其中,淺探測模式受以上因素影響較深探測模式更大,。此外,,感應電動勢絕對值受金屬鉆鋌的電導率影響較小。在外界環(huán)境因素方面,,井眼與泥漿存在使視幅度比電阻率偏小,,視相位差電阻率偏大;泥漿電阻率越大,,對儀器響應造成的影響越?。桓飨虍愋允挂暦缺入娮杪逝c視相位差電阻率均偏大,;泥漿侵入,、圍巖、介電常數(shù)以及各向異性因素使視幅度比電阻率與視相位差電阻率在數(shù)值上差異逐漸增大,;泥漿侵入使視相位差電阻率與視幅度比電阻率差異先增大再減?。唤殡姵?shù)影響在高阻地層中更加明顯,,其中視相位差電阻率受影響更大,。
Both of the structure of logging tools and environmental factors affect the response of LWD (Logging While Drilling) electromagnetic wave resistivity tools. The structures of the receiver coil, coil groove, coil cover and metal mandrel impact on the amplitude of the induced voltage in the receiver coil, and the measurements of resistivity are affected indirectly. In terms of environment factors, the responses of borehole-mud, surrounding rock, drilling fluid invasion, dielectric properties and anisotropy contribute to the real response of logging tools. These responses corresponding to environment factors should be removed to obtain the real response of the undisturbed formation. Thus, it is indeed imperative to study the effects of tool-structure and environments factors for the interpretation and application of logging information. In this paper, an example of numerical simulation of a wave propagation resistivity tool based on a 3D FEM (Three-dimensional Finite Element Model) method is introduced. We have conducted the numerical simulation of the tool-structure and environments factors based on the real structure of the logging tools. The absolute value of the induced voltage rapidly increases with an increase of coil radius, width of coil groove, length of coil slot, and space proportion of cover. The absolute value decreases with an increase of the depth of the coil groove. The shallow mode is more susceptible than the deep mode to the above factors. Moreover, the absolute value has a weak relation with the conductivity of the metal drill collar. In the respect of environmental factors, the apparent amplitude ratio resistivity decreases while the apparent phase shift resistivity increases due to the borehole-mud while the effects of mud become weaker as the mud resistivity increases; both in the apparent amplitude ratio and the apparent phase shift resistivity increase due to the anisotropy. The value difference between the apparent amplitude ratio and apparent phase shift resistivity increases owing to the effects of the mud invasion, surrounding rock, dielectric or anisotropy. The difference of the two above resistivity values increases at first, and then decreases due to the effect of mud. The influence of dielectric properties becomes more significant in high resistivity formations. Apparent phase shift resistivity is more sensitive than the apparent amplitude ratio resistivity for dielectric effects.
