Abstract:In light of the fact that the water hammer effect causes a significant increase in pressure oscillation when sand plugging occurs during hydraulic fracturing of ultra-deep wells, a prediction model for the water hammer effect of fracturing sand plugging is established and numerically solved using the finite difference method, taking into account the characteristics of the multiphase flow, proppant properties, wellbore friction, high construction pressure, and sand plugging formation mechanism. The prediction model's calculation findings are compared to field data of sand plugging during fracturing in a high-pressure deep well. The findings reveal that the highest error is less than 2.92 percent, indicating that the model is reliable. A comparative analysis was carried out on the influence of fracturing operation parameters. The results indicate: 1) The water hammer pressure fluctuation rises as the fracturing fluid displacement rises, although displacement has minimal influence on water hammer velocity. 2) The kinetic energy increases as the two-phase flow density increases, and the pressure fluctuation of the water hammer effect increases significantly, but the wave velocity drops initially and then increases as the sand ratio increases. 3) The variation of the water hammer pressure rises as proppant density increases, and the change in water hammer wave velocity is dictated by proppant density and proppant elastic modulus.
