چکیده

حفاری فروتعادلی به منظور کاهش صدمه به سازند، کاهش هزینه­‌ها و افزایش سرعت حفاری مورد توجه قرار گرفته است. علی­رغم این مزیت‌­ها اجرای حفاری فروتعادلی به دلیل خطرات ناشی از پایین‌­تر بودن فشار سیال حفاری از فشار سازندی نیازمند مدل‌­سازی و بررسی دقیق پیش از اجرا عملیات حفاری می­‌باشد. لذا با توجه به این موارد در این پژوهش سعی شده است با استفاده از مدل­‌سازی عددی و روش تحلیلی موهر-کلمب ابتدا پایداری چاه مورد مطالعه در حفاری فروتعادلی مورد بررسی قرار گرفته و سپس به­‌وسیله آنالیز حساسیت تاثیر پارامترهای ژئومکانیکی، تنش­‌های برجا و فشار چاه بر کرنش شعاعی دیواره چاه به عنوان پارامتری وابسته به پایداری چاه محاسبه شود. نتایج نشان داد بازه پنجره گل ایمن و پایدار جهت انجام حفاری فروتعادلی برای سازند مورد مطالعه 21.24 تا 34.7 مگاپاسکال می‌­باشد. همچنین نتایج آنالیز حساسیت چاه مورد مطالعه نشان داد که با توجه به فاکتورهای حساسیت به­‌دست آمده برای هر یک از پارامترهای ژئومکانیکی، موثرترین پارامتر در بین پارامترهای الاستیک و پلاستیک به ترتیب مدول یانگ و چسبندگی و کم اثرترین پارامترها به ترتیب ضریب پواسون و زاویه اصطکاک می­‌باشد. به علاوه با بررسی فاکتور حساسیت در بین تمام پارامترهای ژئومکانیکی، می­‌توان گفت فشار چاه و تنش افقی حداکثر به ترتیب با مقادیر 6.43 و 5.33 دارای بیشترین اثرگذاری بر کرنش شعاعی در حفاری فروتعادلی می­‌باشند.

چکیده [English]

 Underbalanced drilling has been considered to reduce damage to the formation, decrease costs and increase drilling speed. Although underbalanced drilling has many advantages, it requires accurate modeling and fundamental study before drilling operations due to the risks of lower drilling mud pressure than formation pore pressure. Therefore, in this study, by using numerical analysis and Mohr-Coulomb analytical method, the wellbore stability of the studied well in underbalanced drilling was investigated. Then, the sensitivity of geomechanical parameters, in-situ stresses, and mud pressure on the wellbore radial strain was analyzed in order to present their effect of them on the wellbore stability. According to the results, the range of safe and stable mud weight window for underbalanced drilling of the formation was 21.24 to 34.7 MPa. In underbalanced drilling of the studied well, the sensitivity factor of all geomechanical parameters revealed that mud pressure and maximum horizontal in-situ stress have the greatest effect, while Poisson's ratio and friction angle have the least effect on the wellbore radial strain. Additionally, according to the sensitivity factor among all geomechanical parameters, the well pressure and maximum horizontal stress with the values of 6.43 and 5.33 respectively have the greatest effect on radial strain during underbalanced drilling.
