摘要

Compared to conventional (incompressible) drilling fluids,rnrelatively little is known about the hydraulic and rheologicalrnproperties of foamed drilling fluids. The complex flowrnmechanisms involved in compressible drilling fluid circulationrnmake determination of the optimum combination of liquid andrngas injection rates very difficult. Modeling of foam rheologyrnis the key issue in hydraulic design in order to predict thernbottom-hole pressure accurately and to optimize differentrncontrollable variables for effective cutting transportrnperformance.rnThe University of Tulsa’s low-pressure ambientrntemperature flow loop has been recently modified tornaccommodate foam flow. The flow loop permits foam flowrnthrough 2”, 3”, 4” diameter pipes and an 8” by 4 1/2” annularrnsection. Preliminary experiments have been conducted inrnwhich pressure losses were measured for different foamrnqualities. Measured parameters were gas/liquid flow rates,rnpressure, differential pressure loss, and temperature.rnStatistical analysis was carried out to see the degree of fitrnprovided by Bingham plastic, power law, and yield power lawrnmodels for the generalized foam flow curve data.rnA comparative study was conducted to investigate thernpredictive ability of the available foam hydraulic models.rnModels presented by Beyer et al. (1972), Blauer et al. (1974),rnReidenbach et al. (1986), Sanghani and Ikoku (1983),rnGardiner et al. (1988) and Valko and Economides (1992) werernused to estimate the frictional pressure losses during the flowrnof foam in horizontal pipes. Comparison of the modelrnpredictions with experimental pressure loss values show thatrnmodel predictions of frictional pressure losses can be differentrnfrom the actual values by 2 to 250 %.
