Definitions
- the field of the invention is screen construction for borehole use and more particularly end rings with a skive cut to allow fitment over the screen assembly built on base pipes with variable external dimension that further feature an end radial component directed toward the base pipe for welding the end ring to the base pipe.
- Screens are used in borehole operations to control produced solids from the formation and to enable inflow through a surrounding pack of filtration material referred to as gravel when producing the formation.
- One common design used for such purposes is known as a wire wrap screen.
- a wire that has round or triangular cross-section with the flat side oriented outwardly is wrapped over a base pipe that features axially extending support members spaced about the periphery.
- a protective jacket which is commonly a rolled sheet with punched openings is put over the wire wrap to protect the assembly when running in the hole and during operations to protect the wire wrap from direct impingement by creating a tortuous path for the flow to reach the wire wrap.
- the base pipe is perforated under the wire wrap to allow the produced fluid to enter a tubing string, a part of which is formed by the base pipe.
- end ring assemblies had to be stocked in a variety of internal dimensions for a given size to fit over the base pipe outside diameter with clearance small enough to allow the end ring to slide over an end of the base pipe while leaving a gap that could be seal welded.
- the end ring assembly involved a base ring secured to the base pipe and an overlapping ring that went over an end of the screen jacket that was separately welded to the base ring secured around the outside of the base pipe.
- These overlapping rings could be purpose machined for a specific design and shrink fit into position over the screen jacket. Welding the overlapping ring to the screen jacket also created risks of screen gage openings that required manual correction which was not favored by the end user.
- the present invention seeks to improve the manufacturing process particularly for screens for borehole use and in the process reduce manufacturing cost by using an end ring assembly that combines a radial segment that fits over the base pipe with an overlapping segment that spans over the screen outer jacket while incorporating a skive cut in the entire assembly.
- This construction maintains sand tight gap and allows a close fit of the overlapping segment while providing an undercut to allow the wire wrap screen end to contact an undercut defined by the end ring and integrated overlapping segment that are both skive cut.
- a borehole screen such as one with a wire wrap/slip on screen on a base pipe with variable external dimensions features an end ring assembly that is one piece with a skive cut to allow fitment over a screen jacket that covers the wire wrap.
- the assembly has a cylindrically shaped component to go over the screen jacket and a radial component at one end oriented toward the base pipe.
- the assembly can be mounted over the base pipe without sliding the assembly over the end of a base pipe due to the skive cut. Relative sliding along the skive cut gets the desired dimension over the screen jacket to control sand inflow followed by the skive cut being sealed with a weld.
- the radial component is attached to the base pipe such that two welds complete the end assembly of the screen.
- FIG. 1 is a part section view of the end ring assembly showing the skive cut through the cylindrical and radial components
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the view in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 1 shows a part section view of a screen assembly 10 that has a base pipe 12 with openings 14.
- a series of axially oriented and circumferentially spaced support rods 16 are covered with a wrapped wire 18 that can have a circular or triangular cross section for example. If the triangular section is used a flat side of each triangle is outwardly oriented and a point of the triangle is oriented toward the base pipe 12.
- An end ring assembly 20 has a cylindrical component 22 overlapping the wrapped wire 18. In many cases the wrapped wire 18 is covered with an outer jacket that is not shown for protection of the wrapped wire 18 during running in and in use.
- a radial component 24 extends integrally from an end of the cylindrical component 22 toward the base pipe 12.
- the cut 26 extends at an angle from end 28 of the cylindrical component 22 to end 30 of the radial component 24.
- the end ring assembly 20 is a split ring that can be opened at the skive cut 26 to be placed over the base pipe 12 without going over either end of the base pipe 12.
- the skive cut 26 can be closed with ends 32 and 34 abutting or overlapping or both in the case where each end 32 and 34 is made with an adjacent step that can mesh together and slide relatively along the skive cut 26 as the internal diameter changes.
- the skive cut 26 is welded followed by a weld 36 that is circumferential at end 30 to secure the end ring assembly 20 to the base pipe 12
