Description

At present, the conventional sidetracking process has the problems of high cost, long period and large sag. The cost of single open hole side drilling is estimated at 900 ten thousand yuan, and the cost of single casing side drilling is estimated at 1800 ten thousand yuan. The construction period is 1-2 months. Because the maximum build-up rate is 30 m/30 degrees in the prior art, the vertical distance of the sidetrack drilling is generally more than 90m, and the ultra-short radius radial sidetrack drilling cannot be realized. The main problems are that the conventional short-radius sidetracking tool aims at a small size of a borehole of a Tahe oil field, the mechanical drilling speed is low, the curvature of the oil field is large, the passing capacity of a pipe column is limited, the track control difficulty is large, and the problem of magnetic interference in casing windowing is prominent. This results in a smaller reservoir size that can be communicated with, and a lower probability of the radial drill encountering a fracture hole, thereby making production inefficient.

Although the flexible drilling tool can realize the deflecting and horizontal borehole drilling of a production zone under the condition of high pressure and increase the exposed surface of the production zone to the maximum extent, the conventional flexible drilling tool is easy to leak under the condition of high pressure underground, so that the flexible drilling rod is damaged too early, and the service life of the flexible drilling tool is short. In addition, the conventional flexible drilling tool can achieve a larger vertical distance, and if the drilling of a horizontal borehole with a shorter radius is to be achieved, the conventional flexible drill rod unit is shorter in length and more in number, so that the failure rate of the flexible drilling tool is higher.

After the drilling tool enters the well, the pump is started to circulate the slurry, and the well mouth turntable drives the drill rod 2 to rotate so as to provide rock breaking power. The flexible drilling tool module 5 synchronously rotates along with the wellhead turntable through the drill rod 2, and then drives the lower drilling tool 6 to perform corresponding construction operation. For example, driving a drill bit to break rock to achieve drilling purposes, driving a shoe mill to open a window to achieve fishing of fish falling downhole, and the like.
The flexible drill system 100 according to the present invention will be further described with the example of the lower drill 6 being a fishing male cone, with the flexible drill system 100 assembled as a fishing drill assembly for fishing fish from downhole drops. First, the fishing male cone is adopted as the lower drilling tool 6, and the fishing male cone is connected to the lower end of the flexible drilling tool module 5 in a threaded connection mode, so that the fishing drilling tool assembly is assembled. And then, the flexible drilling tool system 100 is put into a shaft, the pump is started to circulate slurry, and the drill rod 2 is driven to rotate through the wellhead turntable, so that rock breaking power is provided. The flexible drilling tool module 5 synchronously rotates along with the wellhead turntable through the drill rod 2, so that the fishing male cone is driven to rotate, and then the buckle is made, and therefore fishing operation of fish is achieved.
According to the invention, the sidetracking process for radial drilling of the ultra-deep well is also provided, and by using the flexible drilling tool system 100, the well track can be horizontally changed from vertical within the vertical distance of 3m, the size of the vertical distance of sidetracking can be greatly reduced, and the operation cost is obviously reduced. The specific construction steps of the sidetracking process are described in detail below.
First, a drift diameter gauge drift is used. In one embodiment, the drift is performed using a drift gauge model of phi 162 x 1.8m.
And after the drifting is finished, scraping and cleaning the position, corresponding to the whipstock hanging position, of the casing 1 by a pipe scraper. Specifically, a pipe scraper is adopted to repeatedly scrape pipes for 3 times within the range of 5m from top to bottom of the sitting and hanging position of the whipstock so as to ensure that the sitting and hanging position of the whipstock is regular and clean. And, after cleaning, the wellbore is kept full of drilling fluid to ensure that circulation can be established in the wellbore.
And then, descending the whipstock to a preset position in the shaft and sitting and hanging. The whipstock is oriented by a Measurement While Drilling (MWD) instrument in the sitting and hanging process, and the whipstock is separated from the hand after the orientation is finished, so that the sitting and hanging of the whipstock are finished.

After the flexible drilling tool system 100 is assembled, when the flexible drilling tool system 100 is drilled down to the position 2m away from the top of the whipstock, the pump is started to circulate the drilling fluid, the drilling fluid is slowly drilled down to the whipstock, the position where the drilling fluid meets the resistance is recorded, and the windowing operation is started. Thereby, the casing 1 is windowed by the flexible drilling tool system 100, thereby forming a window in the sidewall of the casing 1.
In the embodiment, the initial bit pressure of the windowing operation is 1-2t, the bit pressure is gradually increased to 3-3t after the bit pressure is stable, the rotating speed is within the range of 30-60r/min, and the displacement is within the range of 500-600L/min.

The flexible drilling system 100 does not rotate the drilling tool during passage through the window to avoid damaging the window of the casing. If the window is obstructed, the rotation is really needed and the process should be performed under the guidance of a T-shaped drilling engineer.
And after the deflecting operation is finished, performing horizontal drilling operation. The lower drilling tool 6 of the flexible drilling tool system 100 employs a drilling bit and assembles the drilling bit, the flexible drilling tool module 5, a float valve sub (not shown), the safety sub 32, the jar 31, and the drill pipe 2 to form a horizontal drilling tool assembly through which horizontal drilling operations are performed.

After the flexible drilling tool system 100 is assembled, the flexible drilling tool system 100 is lowered into the wellbore and horizontal drilling operations are performed through the window until radial drilling operations are completed.
And finally, recovering the whipstock to finish sidetracking operation.
