Abstract
The present invention discloses a method for controlling a toe-end sliding sleeve in a horizontal well based on efficient decoding communication. The method comprises the following steps: forming a pressure wave signal by adjusting and controlling a pressure value in a wellbore according to a first preset encoding manner; acquiring a pressure value change signal in the wellbore, determining a reference time by using an STA/LTA method, and predicting pressure value to acquire a predicted pressure value signal curve; identifying a toe-end sliding sleeve control command in the acquired pressure wave signal by using a first preset decoding manner based on the fitness between the acquired pressure value signal curve and the predicted pressure value signal curve; and driving the toe-end sliding sleeve to perform actions according to the toe-end sliding sleeve control command. The method disclosed by the present invention is simple to operate, low in communication error rate, and aimed to solve the technical problems of complicated system of wellbore pressure test and sliding sleeve joint operation, high operation complexity, high bit error rate of pressure pulse communication, and long c…
