whole level of the erosion and the resistance of rocks which were composed closured have been studied, besides, the impact of temperature and laser irradiation for more investigation about this issue has been involved before all. This subject more reveals the matter which laser absorption on the laboratory scale using laser to what extent can cause the augment of the relative permeability and secondary porosity of reservoir rock, that of the vertical and horizontal useful connectivity and eventually that of the positive transferability. This research has been carried out in the form of case study on one of Iranian south west formations in north east of Behbahan city in Iran, either the rate or generation of forming the subtle and large fractures has been studied by considering and preparing this section from rocks of stratified sequence of the laboratory area before and after the laser irradiation operation and various analyzer by the means of Spectrophotometer and advanced electron microscope. It should be noted that during the erosion and ablation in the laser drilling operation in the experimental rocks of considered field, given the capability of the field, the formation and field lithology we observed the creation of fractures at the level of micro and nano simultaneously whose vacant spaces were positive, and reservoir and some others were neutral, this fractures can be created by the rate of crude oil absorption. The main purpose of this study is to advance the operations towards the higher technology in order to the better efficiency in the field of the well completion to be gained improving the rate of oil production by the introduction of this modern method of improving and fracturing reservoir which uses certain specialized parameters and indicators, and, finally, the certain method that might be a better way to use laser irradiation on our chosen formation of Iran.
The capability level of rotary as well as first generation drilling operation could not be matched for deeply drilling programs. To reach that deep, the increasing in drill string length could also cause an additional constraint on hydraulic performance. The operation of slim hole drilling has significant potential to reduce well costs. This cost might be savings are especially important with increased demand for reduced capital finance under current economic conditions in the Iranian oil and gas industry. This savings achievement could be caused by use of smaller drilling rigs, work over rigs, reduced casing size, reducing requirement for drilling consumables and other costs associated with hole size. Otherwise, using laser irradiation for drilling operation can save cost little more higher look like do not using casing and perforation in reservoir layer for slim hole which are drilled by high power laser systems. As the matter of fact, Cost savings achieved from slim hole drilling could be offset by inability to effectively transmit the weight to the bit, increased mechanical failures of drill pipes and tools and reduced the well bore instability effects in particular, in drilling operation at greater depths This paper investigates the effects of borehole parameters during laser drilling operations in the case of slim hole.
Laser rock spallation is a rock removal process that utilizes laser induced thermal stress to fracture and cause a break through the rock by creating small fragments before melting of the rock. In this paper we investigated the effects of CO 2 laser irradiation on limestone of Iran Sarvak formation. Since the limestone included heavy and light oil, we studied the amount of laser beam absorption by this oils for determining thermal fractured during the laser drilling laboratory process. In order to characterize this limestone spectrophotometry (from UV to NIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have been used.
Due to constructive role of technology developments in petroleum industry and their affects in reducing the costs of drilling, it is necessary to use future technologies. One of these new progresses taking very effective role in drilling industry is to get use of laser in drilling processes. The aim of this paper is to categorize and represent the different study results and also to analysis the principle and advantages of laser drilling. Compared to prevalent drilling, laser drilling is capable to augment the efficiency of drilling and solve its problems such as increasing the rate of penetration, monitoring the bottom hole, diminishing equipment and drilling process, but faces some problems such as laser beam transference, cleaning the down hole. As a result, the benefits of laser drilling overcome the problems and it can be replaced or combined in bits in early future. in this paper we showed the result of using laser technology during drilling operation. Also, In this paper we experiments on changing wavelength transmitted during fracturing and drilling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
