4.Trends and Suggestions for the Intelligent Development of Onshore Oil and Gas Production in China

4.1 Trends of Development

l China's future intelligent oil fields will focus on expanding the full business chain of oil and gas production, deepening the real-time monitoring, diagnosis and warning, optimization decision-making, and intelligent control technology series of layered injection and production, and improving the overall intelligence of the oil and gas production chain;

l Focus on developing the theoretical system of intelligent fracturing design, diagnosis, equipment, materials, and regulation for unconventional oil and gas reservoirs;

l Develop an integrated intelligent production system for oil reservoir engineering that automatically matches injection and production ends;

l Develop advanced hydraulic control, all electric control, electro-hydraulic integrated control, wireless transmission control and other intelligent completion technologies and intelligent coordinated control systems to realize the transformation of complex reservoir production from "lag control" to "real-time optimization".

1).The overall IoT pattern of the entire business chain of oil and gas production is bound to form.

Although the Internet of Things technology has penetrated the entire business chain of oil and gas exploration, development, production, gathering and transportation, oil and gas processing, and oil and gas export sales, its technological development and application are extremely uneven, and the various fields of the Internet of Things system have not seamlessly connected to form an overall system. Therefore, it is very necessary to shift from individual IoT solutions to full link implementation of overall intelligent IoT. In the future, the oil and gas production Internet of Things system will no longer be an independent injection and production wellbore and surface production Internet of Things system. It will form a "big Internet of Things system" together with the exploration, development, production, gathering and transportation, pipeline transportation, and oil and gas product sales Internet of Things system, achieving the integration of the entire industry chain. From oil extraction to oil and gas export, the entire chain of the Internet of Things is complete and unified. Real time diagnosis, fault prediction, and operation optimization of the oil and gas drilling, production, and sales equipment used are carried out to improve the efficiency of reservoir, oil well, facility management, and production operation, forming an overall intelligent development of the entire oil and gas production chain.

2).Intelligent injection and production has become a key technology for improving the recovery rate of water drive reservoirs.

The goal of intelligent injection and production technology is to form an intelligent layered injection and production real-time monitoring and control process technology series, as well as an integrated intelligent optimization production system for oil reservoirs and engineering; to develop advanced hydraulic control, full electronic control, electro-hydraulic integrated control, wireless transmission control and other intelligent completion technologies and intelligent coordinated control systems to realize the transformation of complex reservoir production from "lag control" to "real-time optimization".

At present, various types of intelligent layering control technologies for oil and water wells have been developed in China, and the level of individual technologies is relatively close to that of foreign countries. However, there is still a need for research in intelligent underground layering testing and underground layering control. In the future, block collaborative application of layered oil production and layered water injection technology should be carried out, with integrated design of layered oil production and layered water injection schemes, and corresponding analysis of the lower sections of the wells at the production and injection ends should be strengthened; That is, using continuous, long-term, and rich underground monitoring data from multiple layers at the injection and production ends of the same block, conducting fine-grained geological modeling driven by big data, obtaining reservoir fluid saturation and pressure field evolution models constrained by real-time layered injection and production data, deepening the understanding of reservoir heterogeneity and flow bands, and reducing the uncertainty of remaining oil distribution prediction, Finally, the real-time intelligent control technology is used to automatically match and adjust the parameters of injection end and production end, realizing the transformation of development adjustment from "lag control" to "real-time optimization".

3) .The fusion of "mechanism+data" drives the "cognition" and "decision-making" of oil and gas production

A "cloud edge" collaborative framework should be built on the basis of digital oilfields to achieve the extension of cloud capabilities at the edge, rapid cloud access of edge data, deployment of artificial intelligence algorithms at the edge, accelerate the deep integration of big data, digital twins, artificial intelligence and other technologies with oil and gas production mechanism models, and form cognitive and collaborative decision-making capabilities for integrated production of oil reservoirs, wellbore, and surface. Carrying out digital modeling of injection and production units based on digital twins, integrate mechanism and data driven integration, establish injection and production regulation agent models through machine learning, apply intelligent algorithms for automatic optimization, and form an integrated analysis and optimization method for injection and production. Establish an automatic matching regulation mechanism and intelligent regulation system for injection and production ends, and achieve real-time perception, diagnosis, early warning of the production process of injection and production units Intelligent services such as regulation.
