Abstract The South China Sea has rich natural gas source with typical high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) and the extremely narrow drilling window, which leads to frequent influx, even borehole abandonment. However, horizontal gas wells have been placed in the area to develop the gas reservoir, which presents greater well control challenges. Therefore, the influx risk evaluation is quite necessary to guide the well control design. Firstly, the influx mechanism is analyzed based on gas intrusion to provide a theoretical basis for well control design. It is found that influx usually occurs when drilling the high-temperature stratums and target layers. Secondly, the relationship between horizontal open-hole length and influx volume is calculated under different reservoir permeability, reservoir thickness, negative bottom hole pressure and horizontal open-hole section length. Thirdly, the characteristics of gas-liquid two-phase flow are described. Fourthly, the inflow risk evaluation and well control strategies of the target horizontal gas wells are proposed, and the influx risk evaluation envelope was established. The influx risk evaluation and well control strategies have been successfully applied to the DF gas field featuring offshore HPHT. Horizontal gas wells were drilled in the micro pressure window without accidents and the well cost was significantly reduced.

The efficient development of oil and gas resources is inseparable from the progress of drilling technology and the safety of the long life cycle of wellbore. At present, exploration and development is expanding to deep and ultra-deep areas. The long life cycle safety of deep and ultra-deep wells is mainly realized by the sealing performance of cement slurry. Additionally, the accumulation degree of cement slurry particles is closely related to sealing performance. Based on fractal theory, an accumulation model of continuous distribution of additive material particles was designed, which can determine the range of fractal dimension necessary to realize the tight stacking and guide the proportion of solid admixture. The formulation of high temperature-resistant cement slurry was prepared by designing the ratio of solid admixture and optimizing the high temperature-resistant liquid admixture. The evaluation of engineering and temperature resistance of the cement slurry proves the rationality of the accumulation model, which can be applied to the design of a high temperature cementing slurry system in deep and ultra-deep wells.

AbstractThe mixed cation triel borate Ga4In4B15O33(OH)3 was synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus at high-pressure/high-temperature conditions of 12.5 GPa and 1300°C. Although the product could not be reproduced in further experiments, its crystal structure could be reliably determined via single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Ga4In4B15O33(OH)3 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/a (origin choice 2) with the lattice parameters a = 11.382(2), c = 15.244(2) Å, and V = 1974.9(4) Å3. The structure of the quaternary triel borate consists of a complex network of BO4 tetrahedra, edge-sharing InO6 octahedra in dinuclear units, and very dense edge-sharing GaO6 octahedra in tetranuclear units.
