Description

Marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass
Technical field
The present invention is marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass, belongs to the Special buoyancy piece of ocean deepwater drilling engineering, is applicable to the complex environment of exploratory engineering of off-shore petroleum/gas reservoir exploitation.
Background technology
At present global undiscovered offshore oil and gas reserves have and exceed 90% and be imbedded in the depth of water and exceed among the stratum below I000m.Therefore, ocean deepwater oil well is to promote the key point that petroleum industry advances, but the depth of water has but seriously restricted the development of ocean deepwater drilling.Present stage, the offshore petroleum drilling of China has progressively moved towards deep-sea, and as China has 981 offshore boring island of independent intellectual property right, the drilling well depth of water has reached 3000 meters, for the exploitation of the deep water marine oil and gas resource of China provides sound assurance.But along with the increase of the depth of water, the marine environment that marine drilling platform faces becomes and becomes increasingly complex.Therefore, need to before drilling well, be lowered to marine riser and isolate drilling rod and seawater, alleviate the adverse effect of marine environment to marine riser.But in the process of drilling well, appoint a lot of problem that so exists, as marine riser distortion damages, the excessive marine riser that causes of platform displacement comes off, and the corner of marine riser top/bottom part ball pivot is excessive etc., this series of problems all can cause drilling well normally to implement, and even causes huge economic loss.Therefore, need on marine riser, add buoyant mass, buoyant mass can provide buoyancy for marine riser, alleviates the load of top tensioner, reduces the distortion of marine riser.At present, in engineering, the main buoyant mass using is that these two kinds of buoyant mass exist very large deficiency, first in order to ask foamed plastics and air tank buoyant mass, buoyant mass is among the darker depth of water, be subject to higher hydrostatic pressure, be easy to be infiltrated and loss of buoyance effect by water, after buoyant mass lost efficacy, marine riser will be unstable, marine riser distortion, axial load, ball pivot corner all can increase, once exceed drilling well limit window, creep into and stop being forced to.Secondly, due to the long term of ocean current in ocean and wave, can make buoyant mass produce vortex-induced vibration, finally cause the fatigue failure of buoyant mass.
The many sections of articles such as document SPE96290, IADC/SPE112648, SPE74534, IADC/SPE39295 and field data confirm: excessive drag force, excessive skew and the excessive marine riser spherojoint corner number of degrees will cause drill-well operation to stop work; The vibrating fatigue damage accumulation of marine riser rear eddy current induction will cause marine riser premature failure, as marine riser wear and tear, comes off, ruptures and crowded ruin etc.Therefore, traditional buoyant mass is to be difficult to be embodied as marine riser variable buoyancy is provided, reduces wave current load and reduces the function of eddy current induced vibration.
Summary of the invention
The present invention has overcome some shortcomings that exist in original technology, and a kind of marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass is provided.First, buoyant mass can be according to ocean deepwater environment, and the control of acceptor center process software, for marine riser provides variable buoyancy, thereby the destruction that the current load while reducing deepwater drilling in marine environment, wave load and eddy current load cause marine riser, weakens the vibration of the sharp effect in whirlpool.Secondly, can also change upstream face and the flow surface size of buoyant mass itself.Thereby improve the force-bearing situation of riser top tensioner, alleviate the service load of riser top tensioner, reduce the flexural deformation of marine riser, slow down the fatigue damage of marine riser, strengthen the safety of deepwater drilling operating system, improve operating efficiency, to adapt to ocean deepwater drilling complex environment.
The present invention is a kind of marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass (accompanying drawing 1) of tape guide ring, this buoyant mass is made up of deflection spring, admission valve, outlet valve, guide ring, retractable support ring and exocoel, core component is wherein retractable support ring, and it is made up of flexible chain and telescopic arm in accompanying drawing 3.
Top guide ring of the present invention can be adjusted according to the variation of water (flow) direction the state of buoyant mass, now all streamlined lateral location in marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass of flow surface and upstream face, it is minimum that their area reaches, not only reduce the input of flow energy, also can effectively reduce current excitement and vortex vibration, thus the ocean current and the sea beat load minimum that allow buoyant mass be subject to.In addition, in the time running into severe sea condition, can calculate with the matching used control software of marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass real-time ocean current and the seaway load that marine riser and buoyant mass are subject to, and give an order to compressor after data processing, compressor is filled with appropriate gas in buoyant mass.Now, air pressure can drive the retractable support ring of buoyant mass to extend, it is large that marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass volume becomes, according to f=ρ gv, known marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass will provide larger buoyancy for marine riser, avoid riser top tensioner to occur that stress is concentrated, alleviate the increase of the bottom spherojoint corner number of degrees, reduce platform offset distance.When after the severe sea condition past, the gas in buoyant mass will be discharged by outlet valve.
The present invention, compared with existing buoyant mass, has following advantage: 1. guide ring is installed at buoyant mass top, and the area that can control upstream face is always minimum, effectively reduces the shock loading of ocean current and wave; 2. according to principle of hydrodynamics, improve the resemblance of buoyant mass, adopt double streamline side to reduce vortex-induced vibration; 3. can in marine drilling controllable type buoyant mass, be filled with air by air compressor, allow buoyant mass that variable buoyancy is provided; 4. retractable support ring is installed in buoyant mass, is made up of flexible chain and telescopic arm, can stretch by a certain percentage, expandable material is selected in buoyant mass outside.
