Problems solved by technology

The main problems of the window milling method in this section are: the efficiency of the window opening tool is low; the rock breaking speed of the drill bit is slow; the amount of milling iron chips is large and the shape is large, and it is difficult to remove; after the section milling, the window opening must be sealed with cement. That is, it is often said in the field that large cement plugs are waiting for setting, and the strength of cement is required to be high.
The main problems of this technology are: the preparatory work is relatively complicated, the pipe string needs to be lowered several times for section milling and reaming, the drilling cycle is long, and the operation procedure is relatively complicated

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the sidetrack drilling of radial branch well bores through hydraulic jet and a device thereof. The device comprises a first oil pipe and a second oil pipe, wherein the external diameter of the first oil pipe is smaller than the internal diameter of a sleeve arranged inside an oil well; and the end part of the first oil pipe is connected with a deflector. The external diameter of the second oil pipe is smaller than the internal diameter of the first oil pipe; and the second oil pipe is connected with a sidetrack drilling tool carrying out the sidetrack drilling of the radial branch well bores. The external dimensions of the deflector are smaller than the internal diameter of the sleeve; the deflector has a through passage communicated with the top and the side wall; and the sidetrack drilling tool is deflected to the side wall from the top of the deflector via the through passage. The device overcomes well-known defects, can correctly and conveniently fix the deflector at a set stratum position and have a correct drilling position. The device is particularly suitable for the sidetrack drilling of a well with an ultra short radius, can operate conveniently on a ocean platform, thereby avoiding the downhole accidents caused by a downhole tool, effectively shortening the drilling cycle, saving the drilling cost, reducing the labor intensity ofworkers, improving the construction effects and having great market potential.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and device for drilling multiple branch wells in a single wellbore, especially a method and device for sidetracking radial branch wellbore with hydraulic jet. The present invention is especially suitable for oil and natural gas exploitation field. Background technique [0002] The branch well drilling technology is a drilling technology that drills several branch wells in a single wellbore and returns to a single main wellbore. At present, there are many drilling techniques for multilateral wells, including casing window forging and milling sidetracking, preset window, open hole sidetracking, radial branching method, expansion tube positioning sidetracking and intelligent branching, etc. Multilateral well drilling technology has many advantages: increasing the length of the wellbore in the reservoir, expanding the oil drainage area, increasing the recovery factor, improving the dynamic profile of oil flow, slo...
