Description

Auxiliary device, continuous circulation drilling system and drilling method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a drilling technology, in particular to an auxiliary device, a continuous circulation drilling system and a drilling method thereof.
Background
Drilling is the process of drilling a cylindrical borehole from the surface to the subsurface to a depth using mechanical equipment and related techniques. With the development and progress of oil and gas drilling technology, operators can drill various wells with great technical difficulty, such as deep wells, ultra-large deep wells, horizontal wells, extended reach wells, multi-bottom wells and the like, by applying the novel drilling technology. For example, offshore drilling from shallow water to deep water and ultra-deep water has achieved great success.
During the drilling process, in order to maintain stable borehole pressure and solve a series of abnormal problems caused by stopping the circulation of mud in a well during make-up, make-up and tripping of a conventional drilling well, the borehole is required to maintain a continuous mud circulation state during the drilling process. Due to the continuous circulation of the mud in the drilling process, the stability of the pressure of the well bore is kept, the back pressure value of the annulus can be well controlled, the stability of the well wall and the good cleaning effect of the well bore are kept, the collapse and the formation of a rock debris bed in an inclined shaft section are prevented, various complex conditions such as collapse, blowout leakage and the like are avoided, and thus a great number of complex process problems can be solved. In addition, the continuous circulation of the mud in the drilling process has great significance for ensuring the underground safety, shortening the drilling time and reducing the drilling cost, and especially plays a key role in wells with complex geological conditions.
Although the traditional continuous circulation drilling system can ensure the continuous circulation of mud in the drilling process, namely, the continuous circulation state of mud in a borehole is realized in the processes of screwing up, screwing down and drilling down in the drilling process without stopping a pump, the continuous circulation drilling system can only avoid the problems of rock debris bed or drill sticking and the like caused by static sediment of mud due to the stopping of the pump, and when drilling into a deep stratum, the continuous circulation of drilling fluid is far from enough to ensure when the operation of connecting an upright column is carried out. This is because as the formation deepens, the pressure difference between the pressure of the drilling fluid column and the formation pressure increases, and if the drill string is stationary, the drill string 600 will be pressed against the well wall 400 under the action of the pressure difference, so as to cause formation of stuck drill (stuck drill, also called differential stuck drill, which means that the filter cake 500 formed when solid particles in the drilling are adsorbed on the well wall 400 causes sticking and sticking of the drill string 600 in the well, as shown in fig. 2), so that the drilling operation cannot be performed normally.

Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the invention refers to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present invention, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, use of directional terms such as "upper, lower, left, right, top, bottom" is generally made with respect to the orientation shown in the drawings or with respect to the positional relationship of the components with respect to each other in the vertical, or gravitational direction. The term "inside" and "outside" refer to the inside and the outside of the contour of each member itself. In addition, "a plurality" referred to in the present invention means two or more and includes two.
For a clear understanding of the present invention, a prior art continuous circulation drilling system is first analyzed, specifically as follows: the conventional continuous circulation drilling system mainly comprises two parts, namely a circulation short joint 200 and a control system 100, wherein the circulation short joint 200 is connected with a drilling tool (the drilling tool comprises a drill string, a drill bit and the like), the circulation short joint 200 is suspended through a hook assembly 300, a control manifold is regulated by the control system 100 during the drilling process, and the circulation short joint 200 realizes the switching between a main circulation and a side circulation (the main circulation and the side circulation are described in detail below), as shown in fig. 1, the continuous circulation drilling system in the prior art is structurally schematic.
To facilitate an understanding of the present invention, a detailed description of how the loop sub 200 effects the switching of the primary side loops is provided below.
First, it is required to briefly introduce a circulation nipple 200, as shown in fig. 3, the circulation nipple 200 has a hollow circulation passage (the circulation passage is also referred to as a main circulation passage hereinafter) in which a central valve 210 is disposed and a side valve 220 is disposed at a side of the hollow circulation passage, and when a drilling fluid is pumped from the side valve, i.e., a side circulation is performed, the central valve 210 is automatically closed by a drilling fluid pressure. Next, for the convenience of understanding and description, several terms are defined herein, specifically, the term "main circulation" in the present invention refers to the circulation of drilling fluid (e.g., mud) flowing through the central valve 210 of the circulation nipple from top to bottom during drilling (the lateral valves are closed during the main circulation), the term "side circulation" refers to the circulation of drilling fluid flowing through the lateral valves 220 on the lateral sides of the circulation nipple from top to bottom when the connection of the stand column is required (the central valve is closed during the measurement circulation), and it should be noted that, in the following, when the continuous circulation of drilling fluid is maintained by the auxiliary device of the present invention, the circulation of drilling fluid flowing through the central valve 210 of the circulation nipple from top to bottom is also possible, but the circulation is not performed during drilling and thus cannot be regarded as the main circulation, and may be referred to as "auxiliary circulation" herein.
How the circulation nipple realizes the conversion of the main side circulation is described in detail as follows: during initial operation, namely drilling tools are drilled, drilling fluid flows through the central valve 210 of the circulation nipple 200 from top to bottom to realize main circulation, when an upright column needs to be connected after the drilling operation is carried out for a period of time, the drilling tools in the well are stopped to rotate firstly, the circulation nipple 200 is fixed at the well mouth by using slips, then the high-pressure hose is connected with the lateral valve 220 of the circulation nipple 200, after the connection is completed, the pumping of the main circulation drilling fluid is stopped, and meanwhile, the drilling fluid is pumped from the lateral valve 220 to realize the lateral circulation, so that the conversion from the main circulation to the measurement circulation is realized, and as the lateral circulation is carried out, the drilling fluid keeps continuous circulation, but the drilling string stops rotating in the process, and the longer the stopping time of the drilling string is, the more the drilling rod is likely to be wrapped.
In order to solve the problems, the drill stem stalling time during the connection of the stand column is shortened, so that the problem of drill jamming easily caused during the connection of the stand column is effectively solved, and the specific scheme is as follows:
according to one aspect of the invention, the drill string stall time is reduced as much as possible when the column is short-circuited by means of an auxiliary device, which, in particular, as shown in fig. 4, the auxiliary device comprises a housing 10 and a drilling fluid supply assembly, a first end of the housing 10 is provided with an interface 11 for connecting with the drilling fluid supply assembly, a hollow shaft body 20 is rotatably arranged in the housing 10, the hollow part of the hollow shaft body 20 is communicated with the interface 11 and penetrates out of the second end of the housing, the part of the hollow shaft body 20 penetrating out of the shell 10 is provided with a connecting part 21 (the connecting part 21 is an internal thread or an external thread) for connecting with a circulation short section of a continuous circulation drilling system, for convenience of installation and design, it is preferable that the center line of the hollow shaft body 20 is collinear with the center line of the housing 10.
According to another aspect of the present invention, the continuous circulation drilling system provided by the embodiment of the present invention comprises a drilling tool, a circulation sub 200 connected with the drilling tool, and the above-mentioned auxiliary device, wherein the part of the hollow shaft body 20 penetrating out of the housing 10 can be connected with the circulation sub 200 through a connecting part 21.
According to yet another aspect of the present invention, embodiments of the present invention provide a drilling method for the continuous circulation drilling system, comprising the steps of:
when the vertical column is connected, stopping drilling, and pumping drilling fluid from the lateral valve 220 of the circulation nipple 200, and simultaneously stopping pumping drilling fluid from the central valve 210 of the circulation nipple 200 (namely, switching from the main circulation to the measuring circulation);
the part of the hollow shaft body 20 which penetrates out of the housing 10 is connected with the circulation nipple through a connection part 21 (for example, a threaded connection can be adopted), and drilling fluid is pumped in from the interface 11 of the auxiliary device, and meanwhile, the pumping of the drilling fluid from the side valve 220 of the circulation nipple 200 is stopped (namely, the side circulation is switched to the auxiliary circulation);
the circulation short section is rotated, after the preparation work of the connecting upright column is finished, the circulation short section is stopped rotating, the pumping of the drilling fluid into the interface 11 is stopped, and the drilling fluid is pumped from the lateral valve of the circulation short section again (namely, the auxiliary circulation is switched to the lateral circulation);
the connection between the hollow shaft body 20 and the circulation nipple 200 is disassembled, a prepared new upright column is connected with the circulation nipple 200, then the pumping of the drilling fluid to the lateral valve of the slave circulation nipple is stopped, and meanwhile the drilling fluid is pumped from the central valve of the circulation nipple again (namely, the slave circulation is converted into the main circulation);
the circulation nipple 200 is rotated again to continue the drilling work.
In the invention, when an upright column needs to be connected in a drilling project, the auxiliary device provided by the invention can ensure the continuous circulation of drilling fluid, and more importantly, the drill column stalling time can be greatly shortened, the risk of sticking and sticking the drill column which possibly occurs when the upright column is connected is effectively avoided, the drilling efficiency is improved, and the drilling cost is reduced. Particularly, when drilling deep stratum or high-viscosity stratum, in the process of stopping drilling and connecting the stand column, if only continuous circulation of drilling fluid is ensured, the underground drill string is easy to adhere to the well wall to form adhesion sticking, so that the drill string can be effectively prevented from adhering to the well wall by the aid of the auxiliary device provided by the invention to form adhesion sticking. In other words, just because the prior art does not have auxiliary devices, and in the preparation process of connecting the stand column, the high-pressure hose is always connected to the lateral valve of the circulation short section, so that the circulation short section cannot rotate, and the drill stem must be stopped in the process of connecting the stand column, which is also the main reason of causing the problem of drill sticking. According to the analysis, the auxiliary device is arranged on the short section, so that the drilling fluid can flow into the circulation short section through the auxiliary device when the upright column is connected, namely, a high-pressure hose is not required to be arranged at a side valve of the circulation short section all the time, the problem that the circulation short section connected to the underground upright column stops for a long time due to the limitation of the high-pressure hose is solved, and the problem of drill sticking caused by the long-time stop of a drill column is solved.
Further, with reference to fig. 4, the auxiliary device includes a pressure bearing 30 and a positioning bearing 40, the pressure bearing 30 is sleeved on the middle portion of the hollow shaft body 20, and the positioning bearing 40 is sleeved on the end portion of the hollow shaft body 20, so that the hollow shaft body 20 can rotate relative to the housing 10 through the pressure bearing 30 and the positioning bearing 40, and the pressure bearing 30 and the positioning bearing 40 can perform the functions of pressure bearing and positioning. Specifically, the pressure bearing 30 may be a thrust ball bearing, and the positioning bearing 40 may be a ball bearing. In addition, it should be noted that the end portions herein refer to portions other than the "middle portion".
In order to make the structure of the auxiliary device more stable and compact, the positioning bearing 40 preferably includes a first positioning bearing 41 and a second positioning bearing 42 respectively located at both sides of the pressure bearing 30. For further positioning, a first positioning sleeve 51 is arranged between the first positioning bearing 41 and the first end of the housing 10 in the axial direction, and a second positioning sleeve 52 is arranged between the second positioning bearing 42 and the second end of the housing 10 in the axial direction. In addition, the first positioning bearing 41 and the second positioning bearing 42 may be further positioned by the snap spring.
Further, for convenience of installation and detachment, it is preferable that the housing 10 includes a body 12 and a first cover 13 and a second cover 14 detachably connected to both ends of the body 12 (for example, the detachable connection here may be realized by a fastener such as a bolt), the interface 11 is disposed on the first cover, and the hollow shaft 20 is capable of rotating relative to the first cover 13 and the second cover 14.
In order to facilitate connection of the drilling fluid supply assembly in use (it is usually necessary that a high-pressure hose is connected to the interface 11 of the auxiliary device, and then the high-pressure hose is connected to the drilling fluid supply assembly), an elbow 15 connected to the interface 11 is disposed at the interface 11 (at this time, drilling fluid enters through an inlet of the elbow 15, passes through the interface 11, and then enters the hollow shaft body 20 in use), and the elbow 15 and the first cover body 13 are integrally formed, so that the structure is simpler and more compact.
In addition, since the pipe of the elbow, the interface 11 and the hollow part of the hollow shaft body 20 need to form a circulation channel of the drilling fluid together, in order to avoid leakage of the drilling fluid while ensuring rotation of the hollow shaft body 20, it is preferable that the hollow shaft body 20 is dynamically sealed with the first cover body 13 and the second cover body 14, respectively. Specifically, a plurality of first seal rings 61 (e.g., V-shaped seal rings) may be respectively disposed between the upper end of the hollow shaft body 20 and the first cover 13 while the sealing is reinforced by the first rubber oil seal 62, and similarly, a plurality of second seal rings 63 (e.g., V-shaped seal rings) may be respectively disposed between the lower end of the hollow shaft body 20 and the second cover 14 while the sealing is reinforced by the second rubber oil seal 64. Further, the first rubber oil seal 62 and the second rubber oil seal 64 may be fixed by a first circlip 65 and a second circlip 66.
In addition, in order to enable smooth rotation of the hollow shaft body 20, one end of the hollow shaft body 20 is aligned with and spaced apart from the interface 11, thereby preventing rotational friction between the hollow shaft body 20 and the first cover 13 from affecting rotation of the hollow shaft body 20.
For a further understanding of the present invention, the entire operation of the continuous circulation drilling system provided by the present invention (mainly including the joint column operation process) will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
s1: in the initial state, when the continuous circulation drilling system normally works, a circulation short section 200 is connected above a drill rod, a water tap and other parts for providing drilling fluid are connected above the circulation short section 200, the water tap and the circulation short section are hung above a position to be drilled through a hook assembly 300, and after the preparation work is finished, a drilling tool drills;
s2: when the upright column needs to be connected after a period of drilling, the drilling needs to be stopped firstly, then the circulation short section 200 is disconnected with a water faucet, then the circulation short section is fixed on a rotary table of the drilling machine by clamps such as slips, and a high-pressure hose is connected to a lateral valve 220 of the circulation short section; of course, the other end of the high-pressure hose is connected with a drilling fluid supply device;
s3: stopping the main circulation, namely stopping pumping the drilling fluid from the central valve 210 of the circulation nipple 200, and simultaneously starting the pump, so that the drilling fluid is pumped from the lateral valve 220 of the circulation nipple 200 through the high-pressure hose, namely opening the lateral circulation; wherein the step is to maintain continuous circulation of the drilling fluid;

s6: after the preparation work of the upright column is finished (specifically, after the connection of a drill string connected with a new circulation short section is finished below a water tap below a lifting hook), stopping the rotation of the rotary table again, then connecting a high-pressure hose again at a lateral valve of the circulation short section, stopping pumping the drilling fluid into an interface of the auxiliary device, and simultaneously starting the pump to ensure that the drilling fluid is pumped from the lateral valve of the circulation short section again, namely, opening the lateral circulation again; wherein this step is also intended to maintain continuous circulation of the drilling fluid;
s7: detaching the high-pressure hose from the interface of the auxiliary device, and detaching the auxiliary device from the circulating short section;
