Hole and formed in subsurface formations (subsurface formations).Embodiments of the present invention are also
Directional drilling can be used, as described below.
Drill string (drill string) 12 be suspended from boring 11 in and there is bottom hole assemblies (bottom hole
Assembly) (BHA) 100 (it is included in the drill bit 105 of its lower end).Surface system include platform and
Be positioned at boring 11 above headframe device 10, this device 10 include rotating disk 16, kelly bar 17,
Suspension hook 18 and rotary swivel 19.Drill string 12 by being provided the rotating disk of energy by unshowned device
16 rotate, and rotating disk 16 engages with kelly bar 17 in the upper end of drill string.Drill string 12 is from being connected to trip
Suspension hook 18 on fly block (the most not shown) hangs, through kelly bar 17 and rotary swivel 19 (its
Drill string is allowed to rotate relative to suspension hook).As it is well known, top drive system can selectively be used.
In embodiment preferably, surface system farther includes to be stored in and is formed in well site
Pit 27 in drilling fluid or mud 26.Pump 29 carries via the port in faucet 19 and bores
Well liquid 26 is to the inside of drill string 12, so that drilling fluid is downward through drill string 12, such as orientation arrow
Shown in 8.Drilling fluid discharges drill string 12 via the port in drill bit 15, and passes through drill string subsequently
Annular region between outside and the wall of a borehole is circulated up, as shown in orienting arrow 9.With this public affairs
The mode known, drilling fluid lubricating drill bit along with carrying rock when it returns to pit 27 with recirculation
Bits (formation cuttings) are until surface.
The bottom hole assemblies 100 of shown embodiment includes well logging during (LWD) module
120, measurement while drilling (MWD) module 130, rotary steering system (roto-steerable system) and
Motor and drill bit 105.
LWD module 120 is contained in the drill collar (drill collar) of specific type as known in the art
In, and the logging tool (logging tool) of one or more known types can be comprised.Can also
Understand, more than one LWD and/or MWD module can be used, such as, such as table at 120A
Show.(in the text, the explanation to 120 position modules can also selectively refer to 120A position
The module at place.) LWD module include for measure, process and storage information and for surface
The ability of device talk.In the present embodiment, LWD module includes pressure gauge.
MWD module 130 is contained in the drill collar of specific type the most as known in the art, and
The device of one or more characteristics for measuring drill string and drill bit can be comprised.MWD tool enters
One step includes the equipment (not shown) for producing electric energy for downhole system.This generally can include by
The mud turbine generator (also referred to as " MTR ") of drilling liquid flow energy supply, it will be understood that can

Here, the particularly advantageous purposes of this system is to turn to or " directed drilling " knot with controlled
Close.In this embodiment, it is provided that rotary steering subsystem 150 (Fig. 1).Directed drilling is well
The eye approach taked natural with it deviates wittingly.In other words, directed drilling be drill string turn to
It is advanced along required direction.
Directed drilling is such as conducive to offshore drilling, because it makes it possible to bore many from single platform
Well.Directed drilling also allows for by oil reservoirs horizontal drilling.Horizontal drilling makes the well can
Passing through oil reservoirs longer length, this improves the productivity ratio of well.
Directional drilling system can be used for vertical drilling operation equally.Generally, due to being penetrated ground
The power of the change that the uncertain character of layer or drill bit are stood, drill bit can be diverted away from plan
Wellbore trace.When this deviation occurs, directional drilling system may be used to drill bit and returns to former road
On line.
Known directional drilling methods includes using rotary steering system (" RSS ").In RSS,
Drill string rotates from surface, and downhole hardware makes drill bit along required direction boring.Make drill string rotating
Greatly reduce the situation that drill string stops and blocks in boring procedure.For creeping in ground
The rotary steerable drilling system of the wellhole of changed course can usually be categorized as " pointing to drill bit
(point-the-bit) " system or " backup drill bit (push-the-bit) " system.
Pointing in bit system, the rotary shaft of drill bit is along the general direction (general of new bore
Direction) the local axle (local axis) of BHA is deviateed.This hole is according to by upper and lower stable
The usual three point geometry shapes that device contact and drill bit limit extend.And between drill bit and lower regulator
The drill bit shaft deflection angle that limited distance combines results in the non-collinear condition needed for curve.Exist
And can be included in BHA near lower regulator to realize many modes of this purpose
Point at stationary curved or the flexure of drill bit power transmission shaft that is distributed between upper and lower regulator.?
In its preferable form, drill bit need not laterally cut, because drill bit shaft is along the direction of bent hole
Rotate continuously.Point to drill bit type rotary steering system and their examples how to operate are described in
United States Patent (USP) 6394193,6364034,6244361,6158529,6092610 and 5113953
Number and U.S. Patent Application Publication 2002/0011359 and No. 2001/0052428 in.
In backup drill bit type rotary steering system, usually not it is used for making drill bit shaft from bottom drill tool
The specially appointed mechanism of combination local axle deviation.On the contrary, it is necessary to non-thread condition by making or
In lower regulator arbitrary or both apply partially along the direction of the direction orientation preferentially extended relative to hole
Mental and physical efforts or displacement and realize.Again, also exist and can wrap to realize many modes of this purpose
Include non-rotating (relative to hole) eccentric stabilizer (approach based on displacement) and execute along required steering direction
Afterburning eccentric actuators on drill bit.Again, it is diverted through in drill bit and at least two additionally
Contact between produce non co-linearity and realize.In its preferable form, drill bit needs side cut
Cut to produce the hole of bending.Backup type rotary steering system and their examples how to operate are described in
