The backing ring 43 is annular, and is used for adjusting the depth of the rod-shaped part of the spray rod 42 connected into the outer cylinder 41 by adjusting the height of the backing ring 43, so as to adjust the width of the annular gap.
The backing ring 43 is prefabricated into different heights according to construction requirements, and different backing rings 43 are selected according to different construction requirements to form annular gaps with different widths. Illustratively, the outer barrel 41 and the spray bar 42 are both cemented carbide.
Illustratively, when the on-site construction only needs to axially cut the underground casing, the separation nipple 1, the self-priming nipple 2 and the first injection nipple 3 are sequentially connected and then are put into the position to be cut in the underground casing, so that the underground casing is axially cut. When the on-site construction only needs to carry out radial annular cutting on the underground casing, the separation nipple 1, the self-priming nipple 2 and the second injection nipple 4 are sequentially connected and then are put into the position to be cut in the underground casing, and the radial annular cutting is carried out on the underground casing. When the underground sleeve is required to be axially cut and radially and annularly cut in site construction, the separation nipple 1, the self-priming nipple 2, the first injection nipple 3 and the second injection nipple 4 are sequentially connected and then are put into the position to be cut in the underground sleeve, and the underground sleeve is axially cut and radially and annularly cut.
Illustratively, after the separation nipple 1, the self-priming nipple 2, the first injection nipple 3 and the second injection nipple 4 are sequentially connected during site construction, the first injection nipple 3 is selectively opened and/or the second injection nipple 4 cuts the downhole casing according to site construction requirements.
Illustratively, embodiments of the downhole casing section milling apparatus provided by embodiments of the present application are as follows:
after the underground casing section milling device provided by the embodiment of the application is put into the position to be cut in the underground casing, the ground pump station pumps high-pressure liquid into the separation nipple 1. When the separation nipple 1 works, high-pressure liquid enters the inner cavity of the expansion rubber cylinder 13 from the liquid passing hole of the upper joint 11, so that the expansion rubber cylinder 13 expands and drives the sealing sliding ring 14 to move outwards, and finally, the separation nipple 1 is sealed with an annular space formed by the inner wall of the underground casing.
When the separation nipple 1 finishes working, the pressure of the liquid in the separation nipple 1 is reduced, the pressure of the inner cavity of the expansion type rubber cylinder 13 is reduced, and the expansion type rubber cylinder 13 gradually contracts and releases the sealing of the annular space between the underground casing and the separation nipple 1.
High-pressure liquid enters the self-priming nipple 2 from the separation nipple 1. When the self-priming nipple 2 works, high-pressure liquid flows into the self-priming nipple 2 from the lower joint 12 of the separation nipple 1 and enters the built-in nozzle 21 of the self-priming nipple 2. As shown in fig. 3, since the flow passage of the internal nozzle 21 is tapered, the outlet cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the internal nozzle 21 is smaller than the inlet cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the internal nozzle 21, and the velocity of the high-pressure liquid increases when the high-pressure liquid is ejected from the outlet of the internal nozzle 21. The high pressure liquid accelerated through the built-in nozzle 21 enters the self-priming chamber of the self-priming extension joint 22 at high speed.
As shown in fig. 3, when the downhole casing is cut by the casing milling device, since the self-priming cavity diameter of the self-priming extension joint 22 is larger than the outlet diameter of the built-in nozzle 21, negative pressure is generated when liquid flows through the self-priming cavity at high speed. Liquid abrasive particles in a gap between the underground sleeve and the underground sleeve milling device and fragments generated by cutting the sleeve are sucked into the self-priming cavity through the self-priming hole on the self-priming cavity under the action of negative pressure in the self-priming cavity. The liquid drawn into the self-priming chamber, the abrasive particles and debris from cutting the casing downhole are re-entrained by the high velocity liquid in the self-priming chamber to form a jet of particles which is ejected from the self-priming extension connector 22 through the extension channel.
When the high-pressure liquid carries abrasive particles to be sprayed out of the self-priming nipple 2, a mode of cutting the underground casing can be selected according to site construction requirements. The mode of cutting the downhole casing includes using only the first jet nipple 3 to axially cut the downhole casing, using only the second jet nipple 4 to radially annular cut the downhole casing, and using the first jet nipple 3 to axially cut the downhole casing after using the second jet nipple 4 to radially annular cut the downhole casing.
When the first injection nipple 3 is required to axially cut the underground casing, a steel ball is put into the first injection nipple 3, and falls into a ball seat in the inner cylinder 32 to block a liquid passing channel, so that the pressure in the first injection nipple 3 is gradually increased. When the pressure increases to a certain extent, the pin fixing the inner cylinder 32 is sheared by the inner cylinder 32, and then the inner cylinder 32 moves downward. The inner diameter of the through-flow passage at the lower end of the ejection cylinder 31 is reduced. When the lower end of the inner tube 32 falls down to a position where the inner diameter of the flow passage at the lower end of the injection tube 31 is reduced, it is blocked. The inner cylinder 32 falls a distance sufficient to expose the spray nozzle 33 in the middle of the spray cylinder 31. When the inner cylinder 32 falls down, a plurality of nozzles 33 located in the middle of the injection cylinder 31 are exposed and communicate with the liquid passage of the injection cylinder 31. The high pressure liquid carrying the abrasive particles is ejected through a plurality of nozzles 33 forming a plurality of separate abrasive particle jets. Lifting the downhole casing section milling device provided by the embodiment of the application, enabling the first jet nipple 3 to ascend along the downhole casing shaft, and cutting an axial strip-shaped seam on the downhole casing by abrasive particle jet flow sprayed out of the nozzle 33.
When the second jet nipple 4 is needed to radially and annularly cut the underground sleeve, high-pressure liquid carrying abrasive particles enters the outer cylinder 41, enters an annular space between the inner wall of the outer cylinder 41 and the jet rod 42 through at least two through holes of an annular structure at the upper part of the outer cylinder 41, and is jetted from a gap at the lower part of the annular space to form continuous annular circumferential particle jet. The width of the annular gap is adjusted by adjusting the height of the backing ring 43. The underground casing section milling device provided by the embodiment of the application is lifted, so that the second injection nipple 4 ascends along the underground casing shaft, and a continuous annular seam is cut on the underground casing.
Illustratively, embodiments of the downhole casing section milling apparatus provided by embodiments of the present application are as follows:
the upper joint 11 of the separation nipple 1 is connected with a ground pump station; the lower joint 12 of the separation nipple 1 is connected with the upper end of the self-priming nipple 2 through threads; the lower end of the self-priming nipple 2 is connected with the upper end of the first injection nipple 3 through threads; the lower end of the first injection nipple 3 is connected with the upper end of the second injection nipple 4 through threads. The liquid flow channels of the separation nipple 1, the self-priming nipple 2, the first injection nipple 3 and the second injection nipple 4 are sequentially connected and aligned.
The height of the backing ring 43 of the second jet sub 4 is determined by the required cutting width for the construction requirements. The backing ring 43 with the corresponding height is selected according to the cutting width required by construction.
And (3) sending the assembled downhole casing section milling device to a position to be section milled of the downhole casing by using a delivery tool. The high-pressure liquid carrying abrasive particles are pumped into the separation nipple 1 through the ground pump station, so that the expansion type rubber cylinder 13 expands and drives the sealing sliding ring 14 to move outwards, and sealing of an annular space between the underground casing and the separation nipple 1 is completed. The high pressure liquid in the separator sub 1 carries abrasive particles into the sub 2 via the lower sub 12. The high pressure liquid carrying the abrasive particles is accelerated through the tapered straight liquid passage of the built-in nozzle 21. The high-pressure liquid carrying abrasive particles is accelerated by the built-in nozzle 21 and enters the first jet sub 3 after passing through the self-priming extension joint 22 at high speed.
In an alternative embodiment, the high pressure liquid entering the first jet sub 3 carries abrasive particles through the flow passage of the first jet sub 3 and into the second jet sub 4. And is ejected from the annular gap of the second jet nipple 4 to form a continuous annular abrasive jet. The continuous annular abrasive jet circumferentially cuts the downhole casing until cut through, forming an annular slit.
When the underground casing pipe is subjected to section milling, the separation nipple 1 of the underground casing pipe section milling device is connected with a ground pump station, and the underground casing pipe section milling device is conveyed into a preset underground position by a drill rod or an oil pipe.
And opening the ground pump station, and continuously increasing the displacement to enable the high-pressure liquid to enter the underground casing section milling device.
After the high-pressure liquid enters the separation nipple 1, the high-pressure liquid enters the inner cavity of the expansion rubber cylinder 13 through a liquid passing hole on a flow passage of the separation nipple 1. As the fluid in the inner cavity of the expansion cement 13 increases, the pressure in the expansion cement 13 increases and the expansion cement 13 expands outwardly until the annulus between the downhole casing and the separator sub 1 is sealed.
The high-pressure liquid enters the self-priming nipple 2 after passing through the separation nipple 1. The flow passage of the internal nozzle 21 in the self-priming nipple 2 is tapered, the outlet cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the internal nozzle 21 is smaller than the inlet cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the internal nozzle 21, and the speed of the high-pressure liquid when being ejected from the outlet of the internal nozzle 21 increases.
The high-pressure liquid enters the first jet nipple 3 through the self-priming extension joint 22 after being accelerated by the built-in nozzle 21 in the self-priming nipple 2. The high-pressure liquid flowing at high speed enters the second jet nipple 4 through the flow passage of the first jet nipple 3.
The high-pressure liquid enters the annular space between the spray rod 42 and the outer barrel 41 and is sprayed out of the annular gap at the lower part of the second spray nipple 4. A quantity of abrasive particles is added to the high pressure fluid such that the abrasive particles are pumped into the downhole casing length milling apparatus with the high pressure fluid.
