BACKGROUND

[0001] Wells may be drilled at various depths to access and produce oil, gas, minerals, and other naturally-occurring deposits from subterranean geological formations. The drilling of a well is typically accomplished with a drill bit that is rotated within the well to advance the well by removing topsoil, sand, clay, limestone, calcites, dolomites, or other materials. The drill bit is typically attached to a drill string that may be rotated to drive the drill bit and within which drilling fluid, referred to as“drilling mud” or“mud”, may be delivered downhole. The drilling mud is used to cool and lubricate the drill bit and downhole equipment and is also used to transport any rock fragments or other cuttings to the surface of the well.

[0002] It is often desired to collect a representative sample of formation or reservoir fluids (e.g., hydrocarbons) to further evaluate drilling operations and production potential, or to detect the presence of certain gases or other materials in the formation that may affect well performance. For example, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a poisonous, corrosive, and flammable gas can occur in formation fluids, and its presence in the wellbore in significant concentrations may result in damage to wellbore components or dangerous conditions for well operators at the surface. However, H2S concentration in formation fluids is often underestimated with current measurement techniques, for example, due to losses via absorption/adsorption on tool surfaces and/or during sample transfers.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] The present disclosure relates to subterranean operations and, more particularly, embodiments disclosed herein provide methods and systems for capture and measurement of a target component.

[0013] Embodiments may include sampling of formation fluids from a wellbore to determine a concentration of a target component in the formation fluid. Target component may- include any of a variety of gases, vapors, or liquids, where quantification in formations fluids may be desired, including, but not limited to, H2S, mercury, and carbon dioxide, among others. By way of example, H2S is a volatile chemical that oxidizes easily, is corrosive to downhole tools, and is poisonous and explosive. The presence of H2S in a formation may increase the cost of extracting and processing formation fluids from a well and also presort a safety hazard to well operators. Accurate measurement of H2S (or other target components) in the formation fluids can better enable well operators to make decisions about completing a well so that formation fluids can be economically extracted while maintaining safe conditions for well operators. In addition, it may desirable to know concentration of mercury and carbon dioxide as well, as these components can also be corrosive.

[0014] The fluid sampling tools described herein may vary in design, but embodiments of the fluid sampling tools typically may include an inlet, an outlet, and a sampling chamber. Embodiments may further include two or more sampling chambers. The inlet and outlet may be fluidly connected to the fluid within the wellbore that is being extracted from a subterranean formation. In operation, a fluid sample may be gathered into the sampling chamber from the wellbore for analysis. Embodiments may include coating inner surfaces of the sampling chamber with a material that can reversibly sorb the target component. In this manner, the target component in the fluid sample should be sorbed by the coating, instead of being lost via soibtion on tool surfaces. At a desired time, for example, after recovery of the sample tool to the well surface, the target component can be desorbed and measured. Given a known volume of formation fluid sampled and amount of target component, the concentration of the target component in the sample can be determined. Multiple component measurements from multiple sample chambers (e.g., two or more) may be obtained, for example, to extrapolate to reservoir conditions. The component measurements may be obtained at different times in the wellbore.

[0015] The fluid sampling tools, systems and methods described herein may be used with any of the various techniques employed for evaluating a well, including without limitation wireline formation testing (WFT), measurement while drilling (MWD), and logging while drilling (LWD). The various tools and sampling units described herein may be delivered downhole as part of a wireline-delivered downhole assembly or as a part of a drill string. It should also be apparent that given the benefit of this disclosure, the apparatuses and methods described herein have applications in downhole operations other than drilling, and may also be used after a well is completed.

[0016] FIG. 1 A illustrates a fluid sampling and analysis system 100 according to an illustrative embodiment used in a well 102 having a wellbore 104 that extends from a surface 108 of the well 102 to or through a subterranean formation 112. While the wellbore 104 is shown extending generally vertically into the subterranean formation 112, the principles described herein are also applicable to wellbores that extend at an angle through the subterranean formations 112, such as horizontal and slanted wellbores. For example, although FIG. 1A shows wellbore 104 that is vertical or low inclination, high inclination angle or horizontal placement of the wellbore 104 and equipment is also possible. In addition, it should be noted that while FIG. 1 A generally depicts a land-based operation, those skilled in the art should readily recognize that the principles described herein are equally applicable to subsea operations that employ floating or sea-based platforms and rigs, without departing from the scope of the disclosure.

[0017] The well 102 is illustrated with the fluid sampling and analysis system 100 being deployed in a drilling assembly 114. In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1A, the well 102 is formed by a drilling process in which a drill bit 1 16 is turned by a drill string 120 that extends from the drill bit 116 to the surface 108 of the well 102. The drill string 120 may be made up of one or more connected tubes or pipes, of varying or similar cross- section. The drill string 120 may refer to the collection of pipes or tubes as a single component, or alternatively to the individual pipes or tubes that include the string. The term“drill string” is not meant to be limiting in nature and may refer to any component or components that are capable of transferring rotational energy from the surface of the well to the drill bit. In several embodiments, the drill string 120 may include a central passage disposed longitudinally in the drill string 120 and capable of allowing fluid communication between the surface 108 of the well 102 and downhole locations.

[0018] At or near the surface 108 of the well 102, the drill string 120 may include or be coupled to a kelly 128. The kelly 128 may have a square, hexagonal, octagonal, or other suitable cross-section. The kelly 128 may be connected at one end to the remainder of the drill string 120 and at an opposite end to a rotary swivel 132. As illustrated, the kelly 120 may pass through a rotary table 136 that is capable of rotating the kelly 128 and thus the remainder of the drill string 120 and drill bit 1 16. The rotary- swivel 132 should allow the kelly 128 to rotate without rotational motion being imparted to the rotary swivel 132. A hook 138, cable 142, traveling block (not shown), and hoist (not shown) may be provided to lift or lower the drill bit 116, drill string 120, kelly 128 and rotary- swivel 132. The kelly 128 and swivel 132 may be raised or low-ered as needed to add additional sections of tubing to the drill string 120 as the drill bit 116 advances, or to remove sections of tubing from the drill string 120 if removal of the drill string 120 and drill bit 116 from the w ell 102 is desired.

[0019] A reservoir 144 may be positioned at the surface 108 and holds drilling fluid 148 for delivery to the well 102 during drilling operations. A supply line 152 may fluidly couple the reservoir 144 and die inner passage of the drill string 120. A pump 156 may drive the drilling fluid 148 through the supply line 152 and downhole to lubricate the drill bit 116 during drilling and to carry cuttings from the drilling process back to the surface 108. After traveling downhole, the drilling fluid 148 returns to the surface 108 byway of an annulus 160 fonned between the drill string 120 and the wellbore 104. At die surface 108, the drilling mud 148 may- returned to the reservoir 144 through a return line 164. The drilling mud 148 may be filtered or otherwise processed prior to recirculation tiirough the w-ell 102.

[0020] FIB. IB illustrates a schematic view of another embodiment of well 102 in which an example embodiment of fluid analysis system 100 may be deployed. As illustrated, fluid analysis system 100 may be deployed as part of a wireline assembly 115, either onshore of offshore. As illustrated, the wireline assembly 115 may include a winch 117, for example, to raise and lower a downhole portion of the wireline assembly 115 into tiie well 102. As illustrated, fluid analysis system 100 may include fluid sampling tool 170 attached to the winch 117. In examples, it should be noted that fluid sampling tool 170 may not be attached to a winch unit 104. Fluid sampling tool 170 may be supported by rig 172 at surface 108.

[0021] Fluid sampling tool 170 may be tethered to the winch 117 through wireline 174. While FIG. IB illustrates wireline 174, it should be understood that other suitable conveyances may also be used for providing mechanical conveyance to fluid sampling tool in the well 102, including, but not limited to, slickline, coiled tubing, pipe, drill pipe, drill string, downhole tractor, or the like. In some examples, the conveyance may provide mechanical suspension, as well as electrical connectivity, for fluid sampling tool 170. Wireline 174 may include, in some instances, a plurality of electrical conductors extending from winch 117. By way of example, wireline 174 may include an inner core of seven electrical conductors (not shown) covered by an insulating wrap. An inner and outer steel armor sheath may be wrapped in a helix in opposite directions around the conductors. The electrical conductors may be used for communicating power and telemetry downhole to fluid sampling tool 170.

[0022] With reference to both FIGs. 1 A and IB, operation of fluid sampling tool 170 for sample collection will now be described in accordance with example embodiments. Fluid sampling tool 170 may be raised and lowered into well 102 on drill string 120 (FIG. 1A) and wireline 174. (FIG. IB). Fluid sampling tool 170 may be positioned downhole to obtain fluid samples from the subterranean formation 1 12 for analysis lire formation fluid and, thus the fluid sample may be contaminated with, or otherwise contain, the target component. In some embodiments, the target component may be contained in the fluid sample in small quantities, for example, less titan 500 parts per million (“ppm”). For example, the target component may be present in the fluid sample in an amount from about 1 ppm to about 500 ppm, about 100 ppm to about 200 ppm, about 1 ppm to about 100 ppm, or about 5 to about 10 ppm The fluid sampling tool 170 may be operable to measure, process, and communicate data regarding the subterranean formation 112, fluid from the subterranean formation 112, or other operations occurring downhole. After recovery, tire fluid sample may be analyzed, for example, to quantify the concentration of the target component. This information, including information gathered from analysis of the fluid sample, allows well operators to determine, among other things, the concentration the target component within the fluid being extracted from the subterranean formation 112 to make intelligent decisions about ongoing operation of the w'ell 102. In some embodiments, the data measured and collected by the fluid sampling tool 170 may include, without limitation, pressure, temperature, flow, acceleration (seismic and acoustic), and strain data As described in more detail below, the fluid sampling tool 170 may include a communications subsystem, including a transceiver for communicating using mud pulse telemetry or another suitable method of wired or wireless communication with a surface controller 184. The transceiver may transmit data gathered by the fluid sampling tool 170 or receive instructions from a well operator via the surface controller 184 to operate the fluid sampling tool 170.

[0023] Referring now to FIG. 2, an example embodiment of a fluid sampling tool 170 is illustrated as a tool for gathering fluid samples from a formation for subsequent analysis and testing. It should be understood that the fluid sampling tool 170 shown on FIG. 2 is merely illustrative and the example embodiments disclosed herein may be used with other tool configurations. In an embodiment, the fluid sampling tool 170 includes a transceiver 202 through which the fluid sampling tool 170 may communicate with other actuators and sensors in a convey ance (e.g., drill string 120 on FIG. 1 A or wireline 174 on FIG. IB), the conveyance’s communications system, and with a surface controller (surface controller 184 on FIG. I A). In an embodiment, the transceiver 202 is also the port through which various actuators (e.g. valves) and sensors (e.g., temperature and pressure sensors) in die fluid sampling tool 170 are controlled and monitored by, for example, a computer in another part of the conveyance or by the surface controller 184. In an embodiment, the transceiver 202 includes a computer that exercises the control and monitoring function.

[0024] The fluid sampling tool 170 may include a dual probe section 204, which extracts fluid from the formation (e.g., formation 112 on FIGs. 1 A and IB), as described in more detail below', and delivers it to a channel 206 that extends from one end of the fluid sampling tool 170 to the other. The channel 206 can be connected to other tools or portions of the fluid sampling tool 170 arranged in series. The fluid sampling tool 170 may also include a gauge section 208, which includes sensors to allow' measurement of properties, such as temperature and pressure, of the fluid in the channel 206. The fluid sampling tool 170 may also include a flow-control pump-out section 210, which includes a pump 212 for pumping fluid through the channel 206. The fluid sampling tool 170 also includes one or more chambers, such as multi-chamber sections 214, which are described in more detail below.

[0025] In some embodiments, the dual probe section 204 includes tw'O probes 218, 220 which extend from the fluid sampling tool 170 and press against the borehole wall to receive fluid for sampling. Probe channels 222, 224 connect the probes 218, 220 to the channel 206. The pump 212 can be used to pump fluids from the reservoir, through die probe channels 222, 224 and to the channel 206. Alternatively, a low volume pump 226 can be used for this purpose. TWO standoffs or stabilizers 228, 230 hold the fluid sampling tool 170 in place as the probes 218, 220 press against the borehole w'all to receive fluid. In an embodiment, the probes 218, 220 and stabilizers 228, 230 are retracted when the tool is in motion and are extended to gather samples of fluid from the formation.

[0026] With additional reference to FIG. 3, the multi-chamber sections 214 include multiple sample chambers 230. While FIGS. 2 and 3 show the multi-chamber sections 214 having three sample chambers 230, it will be understood that the multi-chamber sections 214 can have any number of sample chambers 230 and may' in fact be single chamber sections. In some embodiments, the sample chambers 230 may' be coupled to the channel 206 through respective chamber valves 320, 325, 330. Formation fluid can be directed from the channel 206 to a selected one of the sample chambers 230 by opening the appropriate one of the chamber valves 320, 325, 330. The valves 320, 325, 330 may' be configured such that when one of the chamber valves 320, 325, 330 is open the others are closed.

[0027] In some embodiments, the multi-chamber sections 214 may include a path 335 from die channel 206 to the annulus 160 through a valve 340. Valve 340 may be open during the draw-down period when the fluid sampling tool 170 is clearing mud cake, drilling mud, and other contaminants into the annulus before clean formation fluid is directed to one of die sample chambers 230. A check valve 345 may prevent fluids from the annulus 160 from flowing back into the channel 206 through the path 335. As such, the multi-chamber sections 214 may include a path 350 from the sample chambers 230 to the annulus 160.

[0028] FIG. 4 illustrates a cross-sectional view an example embodiment of a sample chamber 230 lined with a coating 400 of a material that can reversibly sorb a target component. As illustrated, die coating 400 may be disposed on inner surfaces 402 of chamber walls 404. Sample chamber 230 may be any suitable chamber for use in a fluid sampling tool (e.g., fluid sampling tool 170 on FIGs. 1A, IB, and 2). In some embodiments, sample chamber 230 may have a fixed volume. For example, the sample chamber 230 may have a fixed volume of from about 0.1 milliliters to about 1 liter. Alternatively, the sample chamber 230 may have a fixed volume of from about 1 milliliters to about 1 liter. In some embodiments, the sample chamber 230 may be configured for obtaining micro-samples, i.e., volumes of less than 1 milliliter. For example, the sample chamber 230 may have a fixed volume of from about 10 milliliters to about 1 milliliters. One of ordinary skill in the art, with the benefit of this disclosure, should be able to select an appropriate sample chamber 230 and size thereof for a particular application.

[0029] As illustrated, the coating 400 may line the sample chamber 230. The coating 400 may include any of a variety of suitable materials capable of reversibly sorbing a target component, such as H2S, mercury, or carbon dioxide, whether by absorption or adsorption. Non-limiting examples of suitable materials may include, but are not limited to, gold, silver, nickel, platinum, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, gold max' be suitable for reversible absorption of target component, such as H2S and mercury'. In some embodiments, nickel and/or platinum may be suitable for reversible absorption of H2S and/or mercury. One of ordinary skill in the art, with the benefit of this disclosure, should be able to select an appropriate material for the coating 400 based on a number of factors, including the particular target component of interest.

[0030] The coating 400 on the chamber walls 404 may have any suitable thickness. For example, the coating 400 may have a thickness of about 10 nm to about 100 microns. In some embodiments, the coating 400 may have a thickness of about 0.1 micron to about 1 micron or about 10 microns to about 100 microns. One of ordinary skill in the art, with tire benefit of this disclosure, should be able to select an appropriate thickness for the coating 400 based on a number of factors, including the particular target component of interest and surface area.

[0031] The coating 400 may be applied to the chambers walls 404 using any suitable technique. Suitable techniques may include any of a variety of different techniques for depositing a coating onto a substrate, including, but not limited to thin-film deposition techniques, such as atomic layer deposition, physical vapor deposition, and chemical vapor deposition. One or ordinary skill in the art, with the benefit of this disclosure, should be able to select an appropriate technique for application of the coating 400. [0032] It should be understood that the surface area of the coating 400 available for die target component may provide an upper limit on the amount of the target component that can be quantified. In other words, the fluid sample may, in some embodiments, contain more of the target component than can be sorbed by the coating 400. Accordingly, the surface of the coating 400 may be selected so that a sufficient quantity of target component can be measured to provide desirable information.

[0033] In some embodiments, the surface-to-volume ratio of the coating 400 and or the chamber walls 404 may be maximized, for example, to provide additional surface area for sorption of the target component. In this manner, the coating 400 and/or the chamber walls 404 may be configured to effective sorption of different concentrations of the target component. In some embodiments, the surface-to-volume ratio of the coating 400 may be maximized. In some embodiments, the surface-to-volume ratio of the chamber walls 404 may be maximized. In some embodiments, the surface-to-volume ratio of the coating 400 and the chamber walls 404 may be maximized. Any of a variety of techniques may be applied to the coating 400 and/or chamber walls 404 for maximization of the surface-to-volume ratio. Suitable examples of the coating 400 and/or chamber walls 404 with increased surface-to-volume ratio may include creation of a porous or structure coating that maximizes surface-to-volume ratio. Examples of suitable techniques for maximization of the surface-to-volume ratio may include, but are not limited to, lithograph techniques, such as etching, anodizing, or patterning. Specific examples of suitable lithograph techniques may include, but are not limited to, electro-chemical anodization, semiconductor lithography, and electron-beam lithography. In addition to lithographic techniques applied to the chamber walls 404 and/or the coating 400 after deposition, techniques may also be used to maximize the surface-to-volume ratio during of the coating 400 application, including nanotube deposition and nanoparticle deposition. In addition to the above mentioned techniques, the coating material may be deposited in such a way as to create a highly porous material coating.

[0034] FIG. 5A illustrates an enlarged cross-sectional view of a sample chamber 230 showing an example embodiment of a porous coating 500. The porous coating 500 may provide, for example, an increased surface-to-volume ratio as compared to non- porous coatings. As illustrated, the porous coating 500 may be deposed on the inner surfaces 402 of the chamber walls 404. While the porous coating 500 is shown with a random distribution of pores 502, it should be understood that the structure and arrangement of the pores 502 should depend on the particular application technique. For example, a porous coating 500 be provided with the pores 502 in a regular distribution (not shown).

[0035] FIG. 5B illustrates an enlarged cross-sectional view of a sample chamber 230 showing an example embodiment of a structured coating 504. The structured coating 504 may provide, for example, an increased surface-to-volume ratio as compared to non- pattemed coating. As illustrated, the structured coating 504 may be deposed on the inner surfaces 402 of the chamber walls 404.

[0036] In some embodiments, a protective coating (not shown) may be applied to sample chamber 230 and/or to other components of the fluid sampling tool 170. For example, the protective coating may be applied on the chamber walls 404 underneath the coating 400 such that the coating 400 may be backed by the protective coating. In addition, the protective coating may be applied to other components of the fluid sampling tool 170, such as o-rings, seals, inlet lines (e.g., channel 206 on FIG. 2), inlet valves (e.g., chamber valves 320, 325, 330 on FIG. 3). The protective coating may include any suitable material that is resistant to target component, for example, does not readily adsorb, absorb, or otherwise react to the target component. Suitable materials may include, but are not limited to, aluminum oxide and beryllium oxide, which are both resistant to H2S. One or ordinary skill in the art, with the benefit of this disclosure, should recognize that the specific material for the protective coating should depend on a number of factors, including die particular target component.

[0037] FIG. 6 illustrates an example of a test system 600 for target component measurement. As illustrated, the test system 600 may include a chamber housing 602, a fluid analyzer 604, a vacuum pump 606, and a processor 608. Chamber housing 602 may include a chamber receptacle 610 for receiving die sample chamber 230. Sample chamber 230 may contain, for example, a fluid sample of a formation fluid. In some embodiments, the fluid sample may be evacuated from the sample chamber 230 prior to use of test system 600. As previously described, the fluid sample may contain a target component. It may be desired to quantity the concentration of the target component in the fluid sample. In some embodiments, test system 600 may be used for measurement and quantification of the target component in the fluid sample.

[0038] In some embodiments, the chamber housing 602 may receive the sample chamber 230 in the chamber receptacle 610. As previously described, the target component may have been sorbed by the coating (e.g., coating 400 on FIG. 4) lining the sample chamber 230. The chamber housing 602 may be operable to desorb the target component from the coating. By way of example, the chamber housing 602 may include a heating element 612. In some embodiments, the heating element 612 may confirm electrical energy into heat. The heat from the heating element 612 may heat the chamber housing 602 such that the target component may be desorbed from the chamber housing 602. While the heating element 612 is shown, it should be understood that the present techniques are intended to encompass other techniques for desorption of the target component from the chamber housing 602. For example, the target component may be chemically stripped from the chamber housing 602.

[0039] Test system 600 may further include a fluid analyzer 604 for analyzing the target component after desorption from the chamber housing 602. In the illustrated embodiment, a channel 614 provides fluid communication between the fluid analyzer 604 and tire sample chamber 230. Chamber housing 602 may be opened (or otherwise) accessed so that the desorbed target component in the chamber housing 602 can be provided into the fluid analyzer 604 for analysis. As illustrated, a vacuum pump 606 may be used, for example, to create a suction that drives the fluid sample with the desorbed target component from tiie chamber housing 602 to the fluid analyzer 604. Fluid analyzer 604 may use any of a variety of suitable analysis techniques for analyzing the fluid sample to quantify concentration of the target component Suitable analysis techniques may include, but are not limited to, gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, and optical sensors.

[0040] Test system 600 may further include processor 608. The processor 608 may include any suitable device for processing instructions, including, but not limited to, a microprocessor, microcontroller, embedded microcontroller, programmable digital signal processor, or other programmable device. The processor 608 may also, or instead, be embodied in an application specific integrated circuit, a programmable gate array, programmable array logic, or any other device or combinations of devices operable to process electric signals. The processor 608 may be communicatively coupled to the fluid analyzer 604. The connection between the fluid analyzer 604 and the processor 608 may be a wired connection or a wireless connection, as desired for a particular application.

[0041] In some embodiments, the processor 200 can be configured to receive inputs from the fluid analyzer 604, for example, to determine a concentration of the target component in the fluid sample. The fluid analyzer 604, for example, may measure a total quantity (e.g., volume, moles, etc.) of the target component. Since of a total volume of the fluid sample in the sample chamber is known, the concentration of the target component in the fluid sample can then be readily determined with the total quantify of the target component.

[0042] In some embodiments, target component measurements may be extrapolated to reservoir conditions. Extrapolation may be performed, for example, using measurements of the target component from more than one sample chamber 230. The fluid sample may be acquired in each of the more than one sample chamber 230 downhole at during the same pump out or at different times. Any suitable technique may be used for extrapolating the target component measurement to reservoir conditions, including, but not limited to, equations of state and geodynamic modeling, among others.
