Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to apparatus for protecting down-hole tools such as sensors during drilling, and more particularly to apparatus for protecting down-hole sensors from the effects of vibration produced when drilling a well.
- a rig In typical drilling systems utilized in the oil and gas industries, a rig is established at a desirable location, the rig comprising a rotatable drill string (consisting of drill pipe sections and heavier drill collars, the latter fitting around the lower drill pipe) and a drill bit at the down-hole end.
- this rotatable component of the rig is rotated from the surface, causing the drill bit to cut into the downwardly adjacent rock formations, with the weight of the drill collar assisting in driving the drill bit downward into contact with the underlying rock.
- Drill collars also act as conduits for the drilling fluids used to lubricate the drill bit and carry cuttings back to the surface. Mud motors and turbines are sometimes employed down-hole to aid the drill bit rotation.
- MWD measurement-while-drilling
- LWD logging-while-drilling
- While such sensors provide highly useful information about the down-hole drilling environment, vibration due to the drilling process can damage the sensors.
- An axial load is applied to the drill bit during drilling into underlying formations, and this produces vibrations in the overlying drill string, and vibration can occur due to drill string rotation in deviated or directional wellbores.
- drilling fluid flow around the tool can initiate harmonic vibrations and side-to-side “slapping” of the tool ensues. While most of these sensors are sufficiently robust to address the vibrations of normal drilling conditions, a variety of attempts have been made to counter the potentially damaging vibrations.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,522,271 to Bodine et al. teaches a sonic damper unit which is placed directly above a drill collar string to damp out unwanted complex wave vibrations of the string both longitudinal and lateral in vibration mode, the damper unit comprising a tubular section filled with small pieces of material capable of motion in a random pattern and thereby responding to the frequency content to damp out unwanted vibrational energy.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,429,653 to Kruspe et al. discloses a method and apparatus for protecting a sensor from impact and abrasion, including a drill collar having a section of electrically non-conductive material, the sensor being located inside the drill collar within the section of electrically non-conductive material.
- Kruspe et al. alternatively disclose placing the sensor in a removable probe fitted with protective stabilizers.
- a variety of other shock absorbing devices are also known in the art, such as mechanical stabilizing projections mounted on the tool.
- What is therefore required is a means for addressing the problem of down-hole vibration (from the drill bit as well as harmonic vibration) and resultant tool damage, the means being relatively inexpensive to manufacture, preferably more reliable than point-contact mechanical stabilizers and capable of effective use in rough or underbalanced environments, and not requiring reliance on significant fluid flow to support the stabilization of the down hole tool.
- a drill collar for use with a down-hole tool, the drill collar comprising: a hollow, cylindrical sleeve having a longitudinal axis and an inner surface facing towards the longitudinal axis; and a plurality of elongate ribs parallel to the longitudinal axis and mounted on the inner surface in spaced-apart arrangement, defining thereby a central aperture within the sleeve for receiving the down-hole tool and inter-rib apertures for receiving drilling fluid.
- a vibration-dampening apparatus for use with a down-hole tool used in measurement-while-drilling and/or logging-while-drilling applications, the vibration-dampening apparatus comprising: a drill collar comprising a hollow, cylindrical sleeve having a longitudinal axis and an inner surface facing towards the longitudinal axis; and a plurality of elongate ribs parallel the longitudinal axis and mounted on the inner surface of the drill collar in spaced-apart arrangement, defining thereby a central aperture within the drill collar for receiving the down hole tool and inter-rib apertures for receiving drilling fluid.
- a drill collar for use with a measurement-while-drilling and/or logging-while-drilling sensor, the drill collar comprising: a hollow, cylindrical sleeve having a longitudinal axis, an inner surface facing towards the longitudinal axis, and a box end and a pin end at opposed ends of the sleeve, the sleeve composed of a non-magnetic nickel alloy; and four elongate ribs parallel to the longitudinal axis and mounted on the inner surface in spaced-apart arrangement, defining thereby a central aperture within the sleeve for receiving the sensor and inter-rib apertures for receiving drilling fluid, the elongate ribs extending along substantially the entire length of the sleeve and composed of a nitral elastomer.
- the down-hole tool is a sensor used in measurement-while-drilling and/or logging-while-drilling applications.
- the sleeve is preferably composed of a non-magnetic material, and most preferably a nickel alloy, and the sleeve preferably but not necessarily comprises a box end and a pin end at opposed ends of the sleeve, while double box end or double pin end connections may be used in some preferred embodiments.
- the elongate ribs are preferably composed of an elastomeric material, most preferably a nitral elastomer.
- the ribs are preferably three or four in number, depending primarily on sleeve dimensions, the ribs preferably equally spaced around the inner surface of the sleeve and preferably but not necessarily extending along substantially the entire length of the sleeve.
- This novel drill collar is especially useful in rough or underbalanced drilling applications, supporting and centralizing the sensor and enhancing measurement accuracy by dampening flow-based harmonic vibrations, absorbing vibration from lateral tool movement, and stabilizing/centralizing the sensor within the central aperture. Also, the novel drill collar allows the operator to run lower fluid rates while drilling, minimizing formation damage from fluid invasion.
- FIG. 1 is a cut-away side elevation view of a drill collar according to the present invention, showing the positioning of the elongate ribs in relation to the longitudinal axis of the drill collar;
- FIG. 2A is a cross-sectional view of the drill collar of FIG. 1 along line 2 - 2 , illustrating the use of four elongate ribs;
- FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view similar to FIG. 2A but illustrating the use of three elongate ribs.
- the exemplary drill collar 2 is for use with measurement-while-drilling and/or logging-while-drilling sensors (not shown) employing electro-magnetic transmission modes, the drill collar 2 comprising a hollow, cylindrical sleeve 4 having a longitudinal axis 6 .
- the sleeve 4 has an inner surface 8 facing towards the longitudinal axis 6 , and a box end 16 and pin end 18 at opposed ends of the sleeve 4 for connecting the drill collar 2 to adjacent string sections (not shown) (although double box end or double pin end connections may be used in some preferred embodiments).
- the sleeve 4 is composed of a non-magnetic nickel alloy such as MonelTM, although other non-magnetic materials may be suitable in various contexts.
- the drill collar 2 may be from 2 to 12 metres in length, depending on tool requirements, with an outside sleeve 4 diameter accordingly ranging from 89 to 229 mm, and an internal sleeve 4 diameter accordingly ranging from 57 to 82.55 mm. Multiple collar sizes will be required to address different hole sizes, flow rates, and MWD/LWD tool sizes.
- the following table provides dimensions for a variety of drill collars 2 according to the present invention, including preferred rib 10 numbers: Minimum Maximum Sleeve Sleeve Outside Sleeve Internal Sleeve Number of Length Length Diameter Diameter Elongate Ribs 2 metres 9.5 metres 89 mm 57 mm 3 or 4 2 metres 9.5 metres 95.25 mm 57 mm 3 or 4 2 metres 9.5 metres 121 mm 57 mm 4 3 metres 12 metres 159 mm 71.44 mm 4 3 metres 12 metres 165 mm 71.44 mm 4 3 metres 12 metres 171 mm 71.44 mm 4 3 metres 12 metres 177.8 mm 76.2 mm 4 or 5 3 metres 12 metres 190.5 mm 76.2 mm 4 or 5 3 metres 12 metres 203 mm 76.2 mm 5 3 metres 12 metres 229 mm 82.55 mm 5 or 6
- the drill collar 2 is provided with a plurality of elongate ribs 10 .
- FIG. 2A there are four ribs 10 , spaced evenly apart on the inner surface 8 of the sleeve 4 .
- FIG. 2B there are three ribs 10 , again spaced evenly apart on the inner surface 8 of the sleeve 4 .
- the required flow area (determined by collar size and drilling flow requirements) will determine the number and size of elongate ribs 10 required in a given application, with six ribs 10 for the largest collar 2 lengths (see the above table).
- the elongate ribs 10 are permanently attached to the inner surface 8 and are parallel the longitudinal axis 6 , thereby defining a central aperture 12 (best seen in FIGS. 2A and 2B ) within the sleeve 4 for receiving the down-hole tool; this central aperture 12 has a diameter of 44.5 to 47.63 mm depending on tool clearance requirements.
- the positioning of the elongate ribs 10 also results in inter-rib apertures 14 , best seen in FIGS. 2A and 2B , for receiving drilling fluid (not shown).
- the elongate ribs 10 extend along substantially the entire length of the sleeve 4 and are composed of a nitral elastomer; this is the same elastomer that is used with some mud motor stators.
- Elastomeric material is known in the art for its ability to absorb energy from vibration and impact (for example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,102,142 to Besson et al.).
- the ribs 10 support the cylindrical tool along its entire length, not just at contact points as is the case with current mechanical stabilizers, so the tool does not start moving and causing harmonic vibrations.
- the present invention accordingly does not require the minimum fluid rates used in a multiphase flow in underbalanced drilling applications to stabilize and protect the tool, which therefore minimizes formation damage from fluid invasion. It has been found, in fact, that only minor lubrication is required to work this invention. Where a specific desired elastomer may swell due to the presence of certain fluids, or experience possible down-hole temperature limitations where hot hole conditions are encountered, a special elastomer may be required.
- the manufacturing process is relatively simple and akin to known elastomer processes in mud motor contexts; the existing process for building a mold for injecting mud motor stators can be employed to inject the drill collars 2 .
- a mold (not shown) will incorporate three or more rib voids based on the required flow data.
- the drill collar 2 is then prepared for the mold and a bonding agent (not shown) is prepared and installed on the inner surface 8 of the drill collar 2 .
- the mold is then inserted into the drill collar 2 and an elastomeric material is injected into the drill collar 2 with the mold seated therein.
- the elastomeric material then sets and adheres to the inner surface 8 , and the mold is removed, creating a set of elastomeric ribs 10 that run substantially the entire length of the drill collar 2 .
- the drill collar 2 can be provided with replacement ribs 10 using the same process.
- the present invention is especially useful in underbalanced applications, and also with coalbed methane drilling.
- the elastomeric fins 10 will both centralize the tool and dampen vibration during the drilling process in single phase or multiphase flow regimes. The result is a stable environment in which the sensor can conduct measurements, with a significantly reduced risk of tool damage due to vibration. Tool life and performance are accordingly enhanced by use of the present invention.
- a prototype according to the present invention was tested for performance, and test drillings without a drill collar according to the present invention were conducted for the sake of comparison.
- the present invention was found to significantly enhance the tool life.
- the test drillings were conducted with an electromagnetic MWD tool in an underbalanced drilling medium, a hole size of 61 ⁇ 4′′ (159 mm), and a drilling medium comprising 5 gallons/min. (20 litres/min.) fluid and 1300 cfm (36.8 cubic metres/min.) gas.
- Two test runs were conducted without a drill collar according to the present invention, g values were measured up to 125 ⁇ g (the force exerted by gravity), and catastrophic tool failure occurred within a matter of minutes on both test runs.
