Definitions

  • This disclosure relates generally to equipment utilized and operations performed in conjunction with a subterranean well and, in one example described below, more particularly provides a rotating control device with a seal which is responsive to outer diameter changes of a drill string.
  • Rotating control devices generally include one or more seals for sealing about drill pipe while the drill pipe rotates therein. These seals can be damaged by repeated displacement of drill pipe connections (e.g., collars or tool joints) or other outer diameter changes through the seals. One reason is that the seals deform to allow the drill pipe diameter changes to pass through them.
  • seals are already compressed against the drill pipe (in order to seal), so further compression of the seals when diameter changes pass through them further strains the seals.
  • drill pipe connections are typically not perfectly smooth, so the seals can also be scraped, cut, abraded, etc., when the connections pass through the

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif tournant de commande destiné à étanchéifier autour d'un train de tiges de forage présentant un changement de diamètre extérieur qui peut comprendre un joint d'étanchéité qui tourne avec le train de tiges de forage, le joint d'étanchéité comprenant au moins deux chambres reliées par un passage, et un fluide qui s'écoule entre les chambres à travers le passage en réponse au déplacement du changement de diamètre extérieur par l'intermédiaire du joint d'étanchéité. Un procédé d'étanchéité peut consister à former au moins deux chambres dans un matériau élastique d'un joint d'étanchéité, à déplacer le changement de diamètre extérieur dans le joint d'étanchéité, ce qui permet de transférer le fluide à partir d'une première chambre vers une seconde chambre, et à déplacer le changement de diamètre extérieur hors du joint d'étanchéité, ce qui permet de transférer le fluide à partir de la première chambre vers la seconde chambre. L'une des chambres peut augmenter de volume tandis que l'autre parmi les chambres diminue de volume.
