Description

Novel cutting combined ball and cutting process
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of oil gas and other energy operation, relates to fixed-point cutting of a continuous oil pipe, in particular to a novel cutting combination ball for cutting the continuous oil pipe, and further relates to a cutting process using the cutting combination ball.
Background
During oilfield operations, special conditions occur, and the coiled tubing string is most complex to be stuck in the well and difficult to handle. In general, the outer diameter of the tool is larger than that of the pipe column, most of clamping points are at the tool, the pipe column is sometimes required to be cut above the clamping points, and then the pipe column capable of freely moving is lifted out so as to be convenient for the next step of treatment, and chemical cutting is an ideal means. The existing chemical cutting process needs to cut off the continuous oil pipe before implementing the process, and then send the chemical cutting bomb into the continuous oil pipe through steel wires, cables and other transmission equipment and then lower the chemical cutting bomb into the target depth. The coiled tubing cutting operation divides the whole coiled tubing into two parts, so that the respective lengths of the two parts cannot meet the operation length requirement of a construction well.
In addition, once the coiled tubing is clamped, the coiled tubing can not be normally unclamped, before the coiled tubing is cut above the clamping point, the coiled tubing needs to be cut off at a wellhead, transmission equipment such as steel wires and cables can be put into the coiled tubing through the inner drift diameter of the coiled tubing, the coiled tubing is cut off above the clamping point, and once the coiled tubing is cut off at the wellhead, the whole disc of expensive coiled tubing is scrapped.
In addition, some coiled tubing has a small inner diameter, and the conventional transmission equipment such as steel wires, cables and the like cannot pass through the coiled tubing with such a small inner diameter. Under the condition that the continuous oil pipe is blocked at the tool string, how to cut the continuous oil pipe without cutting the continuous oil pipe at a wellhead and cut the continuous oil pipe with small inner diameter above the blocking point, and finally, the continuous oil pipe is smoothly lifted out, so that the continuous oil pipe becomes a field problem to be solved by operators.
Aiming at the problems, the invention provides a novel cutting combined ball for fixed-point cutting of a continuous oil pipe, which consists of a hole ball and a chemical ball. In the method, the coiled tubing is cut off at fixed points by selecting proper hole ball and chemical ball sizes and carrying out chemical reaction by filling the hole ball and throwing the chemical ball according to the characteristic that the coiled tubing equipment can throw balls, so that the whole coiled tubing can be preserved for continuous utilization. Meanwhile, the method can also be applied to the coiled tubing with small inner diameter. The process of the invention greatly reduces the difficulty of the subsequent salvage operation and saves the salvage cost; it is particularly advantageous that extreme cases of rejection of the entire oil and gas well can be avoided.

7) Lifting the continuous oil pipe, and if the continuous oil pipe can be lifted normally, completing the operation; if the continuous oil pipe is not lifted, the chemical ball A and the chemical ball B are repeatedly put into the continuous oil pipe until the continuous oil pipe is cut off and can be lifted normally.
In another embodiment, the novel cutting process of the present invention comprises the steps of:
1) Selecting proper hole ball size and number and proper chemical ball size according to the inner diameter channel length of the downhole tool string and the inner diameter of the continuous oil pipe;
2) A plurality of hole balls are thrown into the inner diameter of the continuous oil pipe through the ball throwing position of the continuous oil pipe equipment roller;

Under the condition of thicker oil pipe wall, chemical balls can be thrown into the oil pipe in batches for multiple times, and after the previous group of reaction, the next group of chemical balls are thrown into the oil pipe to increase the total corrosion medicine dosage or generate multiple groups of high-temperature explosions, so that the cutting operation is completed.
In the step 2), the hole balls are thrown for filling, and the throwing quantity of the hole balls is based on that the total height of the stacked hole balls is not lower than the length of the inner diameter channel of the tool string, and is preferably slightly higher than the length of the inner diameter channel of the tool string.
The novel fixed-point cutting process has the advantages that: under the condition that the operation tool string is blocked in the well and various blocking-releasing measures are invalid, the cutting process can effectively solve the problem. On one hand, after the coiled tubing at the upper part of the tool string is cut off at fixed points, the coiled tubing can be lifted out, so that the cutting of the coiled tubing is avoided, the whole coiled tubing is ensured, and the coiled tubing can be continuously utilized; on the other hand, the method can also be applied to coiled tubing with small inner diameter without any limitation. The method of the invention greatly reduces the difficulty of the subsequent salvage operation and greatly saves the salvage cost; most importantly, the extreme case of scrapping the whole oil and gas well is avoided.
