- ABSTRACT This device comprises means for detecting the instantaneous position of the drill pipe relative to the floating installation, said means generating a first signal representative of this position.
- the first signal is transmitted to a circuit which generates a second signal representative of the average position of the drill pipe relative to the floating installation, this second signal being applied to a derivating circuit which delivers a signal representing the drilling speed.
- the present invention relates to a device for measuring the rate of penetration of the drill bit during drilling operations performed from a floating installation and more particularly from a floating installation equipped with an apparatus preventing the drill pipe from being subjected to the vertical movements due to the action of the swell.
- the floating drilling installation are at sea subjected to vertical pounding movements which make the drilling operations difficult.
- Such apparatuses generally comprise a support member for the drill pipe, permitting its downward displacement as the drilling progresses, and means for compensating the vertical movements of the floating installation, connecting this installation to the support member.
- An object of the invention is accordingly to provide a device permitting the measurement of the drill speed during drilling operations performed from a floating installation equipped with an apparatus of the aboveindicated type, this device making it possible to preserve the drill pipe from the vertical movements to which the floating installation is subjected.
- the device comprises, in combination with said apparatus, means for detecting the instantaneous relative position of the drill pipe and of the floating installation, said detecting means generating a first signal representative of said instantaneous position, means for processing said first signal, connected to said detecting means and adapted to generate a second signal, representative of the average relative position of said drill pipe with respect to said floating installation, means for processing said second signal, connected to said means for processing said first signal and adapted to generate a third signal representative of the average speed of displacement of the drill pipe with respect to the floating installation and means for displaying the value of said drilling speed, connected to said means for processing said second signal.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an apparatus suitable for compensating the vertical movements of a floating installation
- FIG. 2 shows curves representing the relative movements of the drill pipe and of the floating installation
- FIG. 3 diagrammatically illustrates a particular embodiment of the device according to the invention, used in combination with the apparatus of FIG. 1.
- the floating drilling installations are provided with apparatuses whereby the drill string can be preserved from the vertical movements due to the action of the swell.
- These apparatuses generally comprise a support member for the drill pipe allowing the displacement thereof as the drilling progresses and means for compensating the vertical movements of the floating installation, connecting the support member to this installation.
- the support member may, for example, be constituted by one or more pulleys or blocks from which the drill pipe is suspended and by a pseudo-stationary crown block connected to the floating installation.
- the means for compensating the vertical movements comprise a jack inclined with respect to the path followed by the support member, this jack being articulated at one end on the floating installation and being articulated at its other end either directly to the support member or to an element including a lever which itself is articulated to the support member on the one hand and to the floating installation on the other hand.
- the jack is supplied with a fluid under pressure through an air-oil accumulator or through a pneumatic accumulator.
- These compensation means may also be constituted by a device connected to an accumulator which supplied a fluid under a variable pressure, this device providing a determined pressure to a jack supporting the support member of the drill pipe.
- All these devices comprise at least one element (jack or lever) which is articulated and subjected to a rotating motion determining the instantaneous position of the support member of the drill pipe.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a non-limitative embodiment of such an apparatus for compensating the vertical movements of the floating installation.
- reference numeral 1 designates the drill pipe suspended from the hook of a travelling block which is connected through a cable 3 to a pseudostationary crown block 4.
- the axis S-of the travelling block 4 is moveable along a vertical guideway 6 carried by a derrick 7 which is integral with the floating installation.
- the travelling block 4 is carried by two arms 8 and 9, each having one end articulated to the axis 5 of the travelling block 4 and the other end displaceable within slots 10 and 11 respectively integral with the derrick 7.
- Each articulated arm 8 and 9 is subjected to the action of a jack (jacks 12 and 13 respectively) articulated both to the derrick 7 (articulations 14 and 15) and to one of the arms 8 and 9 (articulations 16 and 17).
- the jacks are supplied with fluid under pressure through at least one air-oil accumulator, such as the accumulators 18 and 19.
- the device operates as indiciated hereinunder.
- the tension in the cable 3 connecting the blocks 2 and 4 tends to increase, thereby producing an inward displacement of the piston rods of the jacks 12 and 13 into their respective cylinders which rotate about their respective articulations 14 and 15.
- the axis 5 of the block 4 is then moved downwardly relative to the slot 6 along a distance which corresponds to the vertical displacement of the ship.
- the floating installation is displaced downwardly the reverse phenomenon occurs and the axis 5 moves upwardly.
- an identical process occurs resulting in a downward displacement of the average position of the axis 5 of the block 4.
- the curve I in solid line shows as a function of time, the instantaneous position of the axis 5 in the guide slot 6 whose length L is limited by points A and B.
- the first derivative of the curve M (indotted lines) which represents the average position of the axis 5, is representative of the drilling speed, the ondulations of the curve I having a peak-to-peak amplitude P representative of the alternating vertical movements of the axis 5 generated by the vertical movements of the floating installation.
- the length L has obviously been so selected that L P.
- the curves I and M also represent the instantaneous angle 0,- and average angle 0,,, of inclination of a jack (such as jack 13) with respect to a horizontal line.
- the instantaneous position of the axis 5 in the slot 6 can be determined through detection means either directly associated to the axis 5 or associated to one of the jacks 12 or 13 or alternatively associated to one of the arms 8 and 9, this arrangement being however not limitative.
- FIG. 3 diagrammatically illustrates the device of the invention.
- This device includes means for detecting the instantaneous position of the axis of block 4.
- this means is constituted by a potentiometer connected to a source of electric current 21 and the slider 22 of which is fast in rotation with the articulation axis 15 of the jack 13, for example.
- the voltage obtained between the terminal 23 and the slider 22 thus constitutesan electric signal which is representative of the instantaneous position of the jack 13 and consequently of the block 4.
- This signal whose variations can be represented through a curve having the shape of the curve I (FIG. 2), is applied, through a conductoor 24, to an amplifier 25 and then transmitted to a filter 27 through a conductor 26.
- the signal issuing from the amplifier 25 may be transmitted to a displaying and/or recording means 28 indicating the instantaneous position of block 4.
- the filter 27 is adapted to transform the received signal into a signal representative of the average position of the block 4.
- the device 30 is constituted by a derivating circuit of a type well known to those skilled in the art and delivers on its output terminal a signal representative of the first derivative of the signal issuing from the filter 27, i.e., a signal representative of the drilling speed. This last signal is transmitted through a conductor 32 to a displaying and/or recording device 33.
- the above-described device may optionally include safety means permitting an automatic operation, as indicated hereinunder.
- a safety circuit is shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3.
- This circuit comprises comparating elements 34 and 35 which receive through a conductor 36 the signal representing the instantaneous position of the block 4.
- the comparator 34 receives an order signal representative of the lowermost position of the block 4.
- the comparator 35 receives an order signal representative of the uppermost position of the block 4.
- the corresponding comparator delivers at its output terminal a safety signal which, through conductors 39, 40 or 41 and 42, can be transmitted to warning lamps 43 and 44 and to an acoustic warning device 45 so as to warn the operator that the block 4 is at its uppermost or lowermost position.
- the signals delivered by the comparators 34 and 35 are transmitted through the conductors 46 and 47 respectively for controlling the operation of the winch on which is wound the cable 3, so as to provide for an automatic operation as indicated hereinabove.
- the block 4 Since the slot 6 has a length L greater than the amplitude of the vertical movements of the floating installation, the block 4 is placed in the position C shown by FIG. 2, such that the length of the portion CA of the slot be at least equal to the amplitude P/ 2 of the vertical movements of the floating installation.
- the slider of the potentiometer is driven in rotation through the axis 15 of the jack l3 and a first signal is obtained, which represents the instantaneous position of the block 4, the curve representing the variations of this signal having the shape of the curve I of FIG. 2.
- This signal is applied to a filter 27 which cut off the sinuosities of the curve and delivers a signal representative of the average position of the block 4, whose variations are shown by a curve having the shape of the curve M (FIG. 2).
- This signal is applied to a derivating circuit which delivers a signal representative of the value of the drilling speed, this value being recorded and/or displayed at 33.
- the signal representing the instantaneous position is applied to the comparators 34 and 35.
- this signal When the value of this signal is equal to the order value displayed at 38, which has been selected for representing the selected uppermost position of the block in the slot 6, the comparator 35 generates a warning signal energizing the warning lamps 44 and/or the acoustic warning device 45. The operator can then actuate the winch so as to unwind the cable 3, thereby causing the rising of the block 4 until the signal representative of the instantaneous position causes the activation of the comparator 34 which, in turn, generates a signal indicating to the operator that the winch must be stopped.
- the potentiometer 20 can be controlled by the rotation of the articulated arms 8 or 9. It will also be possible to select another type of detection means, such as, for example, a potentiometer whose slider has a rectilinear displacement controlled by the movements of the block 4.
- the generator 21 may be an oscillator whose frequency is modified through the detection element 21, an analogical circuit being then substituted for the filter 27, this circuit generating a signal which is a function of the frequency of the signal issuing from the generator etc.
