摘要:

超深水钻井作业经常发生隔水管涡激疲劳问题,而由隔水管涡激振动(VIV)引起的井口系统疲劳可能更为严重。根据超深水隔水管-井口系统VIV疲劳分析算法与计算流程,建立隔水管-井口系统整体有限元模型,通过模态分析提取各阶模态下所有节点的振型、斜率和曲率,应用SHEAR7程序进行详细疲劳分析,识别系统关键疲劳部位,评估系统的VIV疲劳寿命,并研究顶张力、防喷器(BOP)、导管结构尺寸及井口出泥高度对井口系统VIV疲劳特性的影响规律。针对南海某超深水井的隔水管-井口系统进行实例分析,结果表明,超深水隔水管井口系统容易发生多阶模态振动,系统最大疲劳损伤位于导管上,系统疲劳寿命满足作业要求,适当提高顶张力、采用小型化的BOP、增大导管抗弯刚度以及降低井口出泥高度均可有效改善井口系统的VIV疲劳性能。

Abstract:

The fatigue induced by vortex in a riser occurs frequently during ultra deepwater drilling operations, while the wellhead system fatigue caused by vortex-induced vibration (VIV) in a riser may be more severe. The present paper established an integral finite element model for the riser-wellhead system by using the VIV fatigue analysis algorithm and calculation flow chart of the ultra deepwater riser-wellhead system. A modal analysis was performed to extract the vibrating mode, slope and curvature of all nodes in multi-stage modality. A detailed VIV fatigue analysis was carried out by applying SHEAR7 to identify key fatigue places of the riser-wellhead system, assess the VIV fatigue life of the system, and investigate impacts of the top tension, blowout preventer (BOP), conductor dimension and wellhead mud-line height on the VIV fatigue performance of the wellhead system. A practical analysis on the riser-wellhead system of an ultra deepwater well in the South China Sea indicated that multi-stage modal vibration occurred more readily in the ultra deepwater riser-wellhead system, the maximum fatigue damage was located on the conductor, and the fatigue life of the system could meet operation requirements. An appropriate increase of top tension, a small BOP, a conductor with large bending rigidity, and a reduction of the wellhead mud-line height would effectively improve the VIV fatigue performance of the wellhead system.
