[en] SAFETY ASPECTS IN OFFSHORE OIL DRILLING WITH THE FLOATING MUD CAP DRILLING TECHNIQUE / [pt] ASPECTOS DE SEGURANÇA NA PERFURAÇÃO DE POÇOS DE PETRÓLEO OFFSHORE COM A TÉCNICA FLOATING MUD CAP DRILLING

JOAO PAULO SANSEVERINO ABDU 14 January 2019 (has links)
[pt] Frente às dificuldades de perfurar poços em reservatórios caracterizados por carbonatos fraturados e depletados, com frequente ocorrência de massivas perdas de fluido para formação e impossibilidade de manter o retorno de fluido para superfície, foi desenvolvida a técnica FMCD- Floating Mud Cap Drilling. A técnica consiste na perfuração com bombeio contínuo de fluido pela coluna de perfuração e também pelo anular do poço, injetando todo fluido e formação cortada pela broca para o reservatório. Na técnica convencional de perfuração, o fluido é bombeado pela coluna e retorna pelo anular, sendo possível monitorar continuamente a ocorrência de kicks - influxos acidentais de hidrocarbonetos no poço No entanto, na técnica FMCD, devido à ausência de retorno de fluido no anular, torna-se necessário adotar métodos não convencionais de monitoramento e prevenção de kicks, sendo o principal método, a injeção continua de fluido pelo anular, a uma vazão determinada, que evite influxos do reservatório e migração de hidrocarbonetos para superfície, denominada vazão de segurança. Inicialmente é apresentada uma contextualização da perfuração de poços offshore com técnica convencional e técnica FMCD, associada a uma ampla revisão bibliográfica sobre a técnica, e também de modelos e experimentos de fluxo óleo-água. Por fim, como objetivo principal da dissertação, é realizado a discussão de premissas, análise da vazão de segurança e métodos de monitoramento de influxos. Contudo, é esperado que a revisão bibliográfica e análises desenvolvidas, auxiliem em futuros projetos de perfuração com a técnica FMCD- Floating Mud Cap. Drilling. / [en] With the oil carbonate reservoirs exploration and exploitation around the world and the Brazilian coast, new challenges for well drilling are found which requires new techniques to be developed. The carbonate reservoirs can present fractures with high conductivity along its structure, often accompanied by geological faults. When associate with scenarios where the reservoirs are depleted, due to the ongoing production of these oil fields, may lead to fluid severe losses into the formation during the news well construction. For decades, in case of total loss at offshore wells drilling, the proposed solution has been to pump sealing material into the formation and, persisting the losses, to end it with a cement plug in open hole and make another attempt to drill the interval. When these procedures were not effective, the wells were often abandoned. On one side, it should be emphasized, that pumping sealant material and cement into the producing reservoir is undesirable, due to the possibility of damaging the intervals of greater permeability and production potential which may bring reduction in productivity (or injectivity) of the well. On the other side, continuing the drilling with fluid total loss may be intolerable from the operational safety point of view, as it is not possible to use conventional kick detection methods, that are mainly based on drilling fluid mass control. Facing these difficulties of drilling wells in reservoirs characterized by fractured and depleted carbonates, the FMCD (Floating Mud Cap Drilling) technique was developed. The technique consists of drilling with continuous pumping of fluid both through the drilling column and the well annulus, injecting all fluid and formation cuts into the reservoir.
