簡介：環(huán)境與自然資源公司（ENRG）最近發(fā)布一款新型技術(shù)，即用于鉆完井作業(yè)的噪音監(jiān)控系統(tǒng)，該項技術(shù)正在申請專利中。據(jù)稱該向技術(shù)為行業(yè)內(nèi)第一款基于網(wǎng)絡(luò)終端，實時的監(jiān)控服務(wù)，作業(yè)人員能夠夠在鉆完油氣井過程中，及時發(fā)現(xiàn)潛在的噪聲源。該項服務(wù)早在2006年已經(jīng)在Barnett 油頁巖作業(yè)中得以應(yīng)用。
The Environmental & Natural Resources Group (ENRG) has recently launched a new, patent-pending noise-monitoring service for drilling and completions activities. The service, reportedly the industry’s first real-time, Web-based noise-monitoring offering, will allow operators to proactively address potential sound issues that arise while drilling or completing gas or oil wells.
The service was developed in response to the marked increase in urban, high-impact drilling and fracturing activities in the Barnett and Haynesville Shale areas, according to the company. This increased activity has prompted city governments to tighten their ordinances pertaining to drilling noise around nearby communities.
The company states that their technology offering is the only Web-based service on the market that provides drillers and operators with 24-hour access to real-time well noise data via personal computers or personal digital assistants.
The technology incorporates ENRG’s Noise-Monitoring Terminals in the field, which employ wireless telemetry to allow clients to self-monitor their wells. The terminals transmit information to users via text message or email if their operation exceeds city ordinance noise compliance levels. This allows proactive changes to be made to a drilling or completion operation, the company states.
The new technology is also unique in that it tracks noise levels against city-ordinance allowable intermittent decibel increase thresholds, in which sound levels are permitted to increase intermittently for a restricted amount of time.
“Typically, if a drill site receives a noise complaint, the operator will then conduct a sound test that traditionally measures only the hourly average decibel levels, not taking into consideration the city ordinance’s allowable intermittent noise increase thresholds. Without tracking and evaluating the city’s allowable intermittent increase in decibel levels, the hourly average noise levels at the well site may appear to be out of compliance,” said ENRG President and Founder Todd Boring. “As a result, the operator may be compelled to install sound walls or blankets as an expensive reactive measure, which might be unnecessary, had the allowable threshold limits been evaluated on a minute-by-minute basis.
“If the operator had used ENRG’s real-time minute-by-minute noise tracking, they might have found that the drilling operational noise was actually within compliance when the allowable intermittent decibel increases were evaluated,” Boring continued. “Our system tracks those allowable increases on a cumulative basis in real time, enabling the operator to know precisely whether or not their sound levels are actually out of compliance. This can result in huge dollar savings for oil and gas companies if they can avoid constructing sound abatement installations.”
ENRG has been providing noise-monitoring consulting services to oil and gas companies in the Barnett Shale since early 2006.
