Problems solved by technology

However, wellhead overflow may be caused by uneven weighting of the drilling fluid; if the pressure of the standpipe drops, it may be a puncture of the drilling tool; caused by
Using traditional drilling methods, if leakage or overflow is found, the amount of leakage or overflow is already large, and there is no quick solution. For example, if a leakage occurs, it is necessary to prepare for plugging, and if an overflow occurs, it is necessary to shut down the well for pressure, and then circulate Exhaust, extremely low efficiency, and hidden safety hazards

Embodiment 1

[0057] see figure 1 , a drilling equipment that uses flow monitoring to control bottomhole pressure, the equipment includes: mud pump inlet flow measurement system 1001, back pressure pump inlet flow measurement system 1002, drilling fluid return flow measurement system 1003, automatic throttle tube The sink system 2001, and the rotary control head 11, the liquid-gas separator 24, the vibrating screen 25, etc.; the dynamic sealing pressure of the rotary control head 11 is 14MPa, and the static sealing pressure is 35MPa; the back pressure pump 3 can be a 160 pump, and the rated working pressure is 35MPa , displacement: 12L / s; liquid-gas separator 24 liquid handling capacity: 200m 3 / h, gas handling capacity: 20000m 3 / h, working pressure: 1.5MPa.

[0058] Specifically, as a preference, the inlet of the mud pump inlet flow measurement system 1001 is connected to the mud tank 1 by a pipeline, and the outlet of the mud pump inlet flow measurement system 1001 is connected to the ...

Embodiment 2

[0065] The present invention also provides a method for controlling the bottomhole pressure by using the flow monitoring of the drilling equipment described in Embodiment 1. During drilling, the drilling conditions are divided into three basic conditions: normal drilling, tripping, and single root connection , Tripping generally refers to the replacement of drilling tools. Lifting the drilling tools out of the ground from the ground is called "tripping". Bottom, called "drilling down", single connection generally means that during the drilling process, when the uppermost part of the kelly is about to reach the bushing and cannot continue drilling, the kelly needs to be lifted out, and then a kelly should be connected above the lower part of the kelly. In order to continue drilling down the drill pipe, the process of connecting only one drill pipe is called single connection.

[0066] Through analysis under different working conditions, it is judged that the equipment is in the...

Embodiment 3

[0073] This embodiment provides a method for controlling the bottomhole pressure by using the flow monitoring of the drilling equipment described in the first embodiment. Combining with the content of the first embodiment above, this embodiment takes the normal drilling working condition as an example for illustration. Under normal drilling conditions, the drilling fluid is sucked from the mud tank 1, passed through the first manual plate valve 5, the second mass flow meter 7 and the third manual plate valve 8, and then pumped into the drill string through the mud pump 9, and the drilling fluid is pumped into the drill string by the drill pipe From the water hole to the bottom of the well, return to the ground from the wellbore annulus, blocked by the rotary control head 11, reversed and enter the automatic throttle manifold system 2001, pass through the first air control plate valve 14 and then pass through the first hydraulic throttle valve Throttle 16, enter the drilling flu...

Abstract

The invention discloses a drilling equipment and a method for realizing bottom hole pressure control by using flow monitoring. The drilling equipment includes: mud pump inlet flow measurement system, back pressure pump inlet flow measurement system, drilling fluid return flow measurement system, automatic throttling manifold system, and rotary control head, liquid-gas separator, vibrating screen, all The inlet of the mud pump inlet flow measurement system is connected to the mud tank by a pipeline, and the outlet of the mud pump inlet flow measurement system is connected to the drill pipe by a pipeline. Through the bottom of the drill pipe, the drill bit travels from the borehole annulus to the rotary control head and connects with the automatic control unit. The inlet pipeline of the flow manifold system is connected with the outlet pipeline of the inlet flow measurement system of the back pressure pump; the inlet flow measurement system of the back pressure pump has a pipeline connected to the mud tank; the outlet of the automatic throttling manifold system has a pipeline and the return flow of drilling fluid The inlet of the measurement system is connected; the outlet of the drilling fluid return flow measurement system is connected with the inlet of the liquid-gas separator by a pipeline; the liquid-gas separator has two branches. The invention can effectively control or eliminate the bad influence caused by well bottom leakage or overflow on well drilling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of oil and natural gas drilling pressure control systems, and relates to a drilling equipment and method for realizing bottom-hole pressure control by using flow monitoring. Background technique [0002] Loss and overflow are downhole complex situations that are often encountered in the drilling process. Among them, leakage refers to a downhole complex situation in which drilling fluid leaks into the formation during oil and gas drilling engineering operations. On the one hand, it directly leads to the loss of a large amount of drilling fluid and affects normal drilling. During operation, the well wall may even become unstable due to the excessive drop in fluid column pressure, leading to well collapse or even sticking, and the scrapping of some or all well sections. It will cause serious damage to the reservoir; and overflow refers to a complex downhole situation in which formation fluid flows into the wellbore durin...
