Description
2359105 1 1 Downhole Cleaning Tool with Shear Clutch 2 3 The present
invention relates to a cleaning tool intended 4 for use in downhole environments. 5 6 After casing or liner has been run into a well bore and 7 cemented in place, it is conventional to use a cleaning 8 tool to clean the interior of the casing or liner and to 9 remove any obstructions such as burrs or lumps of cement 10 which may be remnant from the cementing procedure. 11 Conventional cleaning tools usually take one of two forms 12 which are well known in the art. Brushing tools are 13 afforded a bed of bristles on their exterior surface 14 which "brush" the casing or liner surface while casing 15 scrapers incorporate blades, typically made of steel, 16 which scrape the interior surface of the casing or liner. 17 The blades or brushes are often mounted on supporting 18 pads which are typically biased outwardly by coil springs 19 to encourage contact between the cleaning member and the casing or liner surface.
This invention relates to improvements to our earlier British Patent Application Number 9917601.8 which teaches 2 2 3 1 of a downhole tool comprised of a housing which is typically an upper and lower sleeve which can be mounted on a work string and which support at least one floating component. The floating component, which is a lantern or the like, supports cleaning members such as brushes or scraper blades and can move in a lateral or radial position within receptive components present in the housing. This negates the requirement for springs which are typically used to impart an outward radial bias to the cleaning members on conventional cleaning tools and have been known to break off. In addition superior cleaning properties are afforded to the cleaning tool, as the cleaning members mounted on the lanterns can make more frequent contact with the casing or liner than conventional tools, as the tool remains centralised within the bore. This is particularly important when the casing or liner lines a well which is deviated or horizontal.
9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Whilst this arrangement increases the efficiency of the 21 cleaning procedure, the friction created when the lantern 22 contacts the casing or liner holds the lantern in a 23 stationary position from a rotational perspective. It 24 would be a distinct advantage to provide a cleaning tool 25 wherein the lantern rotates in synchrony with the work 26 string in order to further increase the efficiency of the 27 cleaning procedure. However continuous rotation of the 28 lantern which holds the cleaning members, particularly if 29 the cleaning members were scraper blades, could actually wear the casing. Consequently, the damaged casing would 31 have to be replaced, necessitating the implementation of 32 costly, difficult and timely procedures. It would 33 therefore be advantageous to provide a cleaning tool 3 1 wherein the lantern which carries the cleaning members 2 rotates in synchrony with the work string when desired, 3 but has no or negligible rotational movement, at other 4 times. 5 6 Furthermore, in the event that the lantern carrying the 7 cleaning members meets an obstruction, the resultant 8 torque, or resistance to rotation, may be sufficient to 9 deform the lantern. It would therefore be a distinct advantage to provide a cleaning tool with the superior cleaning abilities of the tool disclosed in British Patent Application Number 9917601.8, but which can rotate in synchrony with the work string if required, without risk of seizing or deforming under excessive load.
11 12 13 14 is 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 It is a yet further object of the present invention to 28 provide a cleaning tool wherein the lantern which 29 supports the cleaning members can rotate in synchrony 30 with the work string when desired, but can also not 31 rotate when required. 32 It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved cleaning tool for cleaning casing in a downhole environment.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a cleaning tool comprising means for transferring the rotational movement of the work string to the cleaning members, wherein the transferring means will shear or rupture if the resistance to the tool exceeds a given load.
4 4 1 According to the present invention there is provided a 2 cleaning tool for mounting on a work string, the cleaning 3 tool being comprised of an upper and lower sleeve and a floating component located between the sleeves, wherein the floating component is free to move in a radial 6 direction relative to the work string within 7 predetermined limits set by the upper and lower sleeve, 8 and wherein the floating component is mechanically linked 9 to the work string by a rupture means, wherein the rupture means is adapted to rupture if the torque or 11 resistance to rotational movement of the floating 12 13 14 is 16 17 18 19 component exceeds a predetermined load, and wherein upon breaking of the rupture means the floating component will be allowed to have no or negligible rotational movement.
Preferably the rupture means is a shear pin.
Preferably, at least one of the upper and lower sleeve comprises a clutch which engages with the floating 20 component. 21 22 23 24 25 26 Preferably the clutch is held to the work string by the rupture means.
Preferably the upper and lower sleeve have female receiving means for receiving the floating component.
27 28 Most preferably the female receiving means have a greater 29 external diameter than the floating component. 30 31 32 Typically the floating component may move axially relative to the work string between a first position 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Preferably the upper and lower sleeve act as stabilisers for the work string in the well bore.
whereat it engages the clutch and a second position where it does not so engage the clutch.
Preferably the upper and lower sleeve are mounted by ball bearings that allow for the work string to rotate relative to the upper and lower sleeve.
9 10 11 Typically the floating component supports a plurality of 12 cleaning members.
13 14 is 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Optionally the cleaning members are brushes. Alternatively the cleaning members may be scraper blades.
Preferably the floating component is a lantern or the like.
Optionally the floating component may be provided with elongate slots which afford flexibilty to the floating component.
An example embodiment of the invention will now be illustrated with reference to the following Figures in which:
Figure 1 shows a cross section of a cleaning tool in accordance with the invention, and; 31 Figure 2 is a section of the cleaning tool in close up.
32 6 1 Referring firstly to Figure 1, a cleaning tool for 3 cleaning casing within a well bore is generally depicted at 1, mounted on a work string 2. The cleaning tool 1 is 4 comprised of an upper 3 and lower 4 sleeve which are mounted via ball bearings 5 and associated screw (not 6 shown) onto the work string 2. The ball bearings enable 7 the upper 3 and lower 4 sleeves to have no or negligible 8 rotational movement, notwithstanding rotation of the work 9 string 2. The upper 3 and lower 4 sleeve limit the axial 10 movement of the cleaning tool 1 along the work string 2. 11 The cleaning tool 1 is further comprised of at least one 12 lantern 6 which supports a plurality of cleaning members 13 7 which may be brushes or scraping blades, or other like 14 members. 15 16 17 18 19 20 Figure 2 shows a section of cleaning tool in more detail. The lantern 6 has a plurality of elongate slots 8 which afford flexibilty to the lantern 6. The lantern 6 may engage with a clutch 9 by virtue of corresponding teeth structures 10 on the clutch 9 and lantern 6. The clutch 9 is held to the work string 2 by a shear pin 11. The lower sleeve 4 has a recess 12 for receiving the lantern, and within which the clutch 9 sits. The recess 12 has a greater external diameter than the lantern and as a result the lantern 6 is free to move in a radial manner relative to the work string 2 but within the limits set by the recesses in the upper 3 and lower 4 sleeve.
In use, the lantern 6 will move in a radial manner relative to the work string 2 and selectively engage with the clutch 9. Specifically, when the work string 2 to which the cleaning tool 2 is attached is advanced down a well bore (not shown) friction form the casing wall 7 1 together with the drill fluid which is present within the 2 bore will cause the lantern 6 to move radially away from 3 the clutch 9 which sits in the lower sleeve 4 recess 12. 4 As a result the lantern 6 will be free to remain 5 stationary from a rotational perspective, notwithstanding 6 rotation of the work string 2. 7 8 However, when the work string is tripped or picked up 9 from the bore the resistance created will encourage the 10 lantern 6 to move towards the clutch 9 which sits in the 11 recess 12 of the lower sleeve 4. The lantern 6 will 12 engage with the clutch 9 by virtue of the corresponding 13 teeth structures. With the clutch 9 engaged, the lantern 14 6 will rotate in synchrony with the work string 2 and 15 thereby increase the efficiency of the cleaning process. 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 In use, the lantern 6 which carries the cleaning members 7 of cleaning tool 1 may meet an obstruction such as burrs or lumps of cement within the well bore as the cleaning procedure is carried out. If this occurs, the torque or resistance to rotation on the lantern 6 will increase, and could result in deformation of the lantern 6. However if the torque or resistance to the lantern 6 exceeds a given load the shear pin 11 which holds the clutch 9 to the work string 2, will break, thereby 26 breaking the mechanical connection between the workstring 27 2 and lantern 6. As a result of the mechanical connection 28 between the lantern 6 and work string 2 breaking, the 29 lantern 6 will be able to remain stationary from a 30 rotational perspective even if the clutch 9 is engaged. 31 This prevents the build up of resistance on the lantern 6 32 from deforming the work string 2. 33 8 1 The advantage of the present invention is that the 2 lantern which supports the cleaning members can be 3 selectively caused to rotate with the work string 2 4 5 during cleaning, or remain stationary when not cleaning so as to reduce wear on the casing wall. When cleaning 6 is required, the work string can be tripped or picked up, thereby engaging the lantern with the clutch. As a result of this engagement the lantern will rotate in synchrony with the work string. However it will be appreciated that continual cleaning of the casing 11 surface, particularly if the cleaning members are 12 scraping blades, can induce wear of the casing.
13 Therefore at such times that the work string is being 14 advanced through the bore, the lantern will not engage 15 the clutch and will therefore have only axial movement 16 relative to the work string.
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 It will also be appreciated that the inclusion of a shear pin or other rupture means which holds the lantern to the work string, will prevent deformation of the lantern should the lantern be exposed to torque or resistance exceeding a predetermined load.
Further modifications and improvements may be incorporated without departing from the scope of invention herein intended.
