Research on Structural Design and Optimisation Analysis of a Downhole Multi-Parameter Real-Time Monitoring System for Intelligent Well Completion

In this paper, based on electro-hydraulic composite intelligent well-completion technology, a new type of downhole multi-parameter real-time monitoring system design scheme is established. Firstly, a multi-parameter real-time monitoring system with a special structure is designed; secondly, its reliability is analysed by applying the method of numerical simulation; finally, in order to verify the reliability of the simulation results, a principle prototype is developed, and indoor experimental tests of fluid flow are carried out. The experimental results show that the flow rate is directly proportional to the differential pressure, and when the flow rate is certain, the higher the water content, the higher the differential pressure. The indoor experimental flow rate of 400 similar to 1000 m(3)/d is measured with high accuracy, and the error range is within 5%. Numerical simulation and experimental results with a high degree of fit, a flow rate of 400-1000 m(3)/d, the two error range within 10%, the integrated flow coefficient of the experimental value is stable between 0.75-0.815, the simulation value is stable between 0.80-0.86. The mutual verification of the two shows that the flow monitoring design meets the requirements and provides a reference basis for the structural design of the intelligent, well-completion multi-parameter real-time monitoring system.
