Problems solved by technology

At present, the traditional sand washing method in my country's oilfields has low operating efficiency, large leakage, and the cemented section of the sand bed is not easy to be washed away and cannot be completely carried out of the ground.
During the sand washing process, the pipe string is easy to be blocked by sand, and a sand jam accident occurs, which makes the sand washing operation unable to continue
[0003] Horizontal well sand washing has the following characteristics: First, the sand washing time is long and the efficiency is low
The phenomenon of sand settling is common in the horizontal section of horizontal wells. The average length of the "sand bed" is about 600m. The conventional reverse circulation sand washing footage is about 150m / d, and the sand washing time is long and the efficiency is low.
Second, the wellbore leakage is serious during the sand washing process
According to the observation of the objects returned from sand washing in the early stage, the returned sand grains are in a cemented shape with high hardness and are not easy to break, which makes the sedimented sand difficult to disperse, which affects the progress of sand washing and normal sand washing operations.

Embodiment 1

[0025] In order to overcome the problems that cables are easy to wear, drill tools are easy to get stuck, high safety risks, complex tripping procedures, low efficiency, and high labor intensity during the downhole process, this embodiment provides a method such as figure 1 As shown in the horizontal well reverse circulation jet screw drill, the outside of the screw drill includes the upper part of the upper joint 1, the upper cardan shaft housing 3, the stator 8, the lower cardan shaft housing 9, and the transmission shaft housing 11 connected in sequence from top to bottom And the sealing head 16, the inside of the screw drill includes the lower part of the upper joint 1, the upper cardan shaft 5, the rotor 7, the lower cardan shaft 10, the transmission shaft 15 and the spray head 17 connected sequentially from top to bottom, the middle of the upper joint 1 The sealing cup 2 is connected, the injection head 17 is provided with injection holes in the circumferential direction,...

Embodiment 2

[0030] On the basis of embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a kind of figure 1 In the shown horizontal well reverse circulation jet screw drill, the outer sides of the upper cardan shaft 5 and the lower cardan shaft 10 are connected with a sealing rubber tube. Since there are holes on the upper cardan shaft 5 and the lower cardan shaft 10, when the liquid flows through, a short flow phenomenon will occur, and the short flow of the liquid can be effectively prevented by the sealing effect of the sealing rubber tube.

[0031] Further, the rotor 7 is a hollow hollow rotor. The liquid entering from the casing passes through the sealing cup 2 to make the liquid flow together and then enters the working chamber of the motor. The motor is composed of the rotor 7 and the stator 8, which converts the liquid energy into the mechanical energy of the hollow rotor 7 to drive the spray head to rotate and make full use of it. energy, reducing costs.

Embodiment 3

[0033] On the basis of embodiment 2, this embodiment provides a kind of figure 1 In the shown horizontal well reverse circulation jet screw drill, the upper end and the lower end of the transmission shaft 15 are connected with bearings. The bearing has effectively prevented the transmission shaft 15 from jumping up and down during the rotation process.

[0034] Further, in order to prevent radial deflection of the transmission shaft 15 during rotation, a circle of needle rollers 14 is connected to the outer circumference of the transmission shaft (15), and both ends of the needle rollers 14 are round heads.

[0035] Furthermore, the injection holes of the injection head 17 are radially inclined from the inside to the outside. The spray head 17 rotates at a high speed, the spray holes are radially inclined from the inside to the outside, and the liquid is sprayed out in a divergent manner through the spray holes to form a high-pressure spray rotating fluid, requiring less circ...

Abstract

The invention provides a horizontal well reverse circulation jet flow screw drill. The exterior of the screw drill comprises an upper connector upper portion, an upper universal shaft shell, a stator, a lower universal shaft shell, a transmission shaft shell and a sealing head which are sequentially connected from top to bottom. The interior of the screw drill comprises an upper connector lower portion, an upper universal shaft, a rotor, a lower universal shaft, a transmission shaft and a jetting head which are sequentially connected from top to bottom. A sealing rubber cup is connected to the middle of an upper connector. Jetting holes are formed in the peripheral direction of the jetting head. The sealing head is connected to the upper portion of the jetting head. The screw drill is small in size and compact in structure, the tool rotation speed is high, torque is large, maintenance is easy, the screw drill can be reused, and the screw drill has the advantages that drilling speed is high, carrying capacity is high, and the drill cannot be clamped by a pipe string easily; the quantity of needed circulating liquid is small, the discharge capacity is high, the flowback efficiency is high, a sleeving and milling tool is connected to the lower end of the screw drill, and the milling, sleeving, grinding and punching problems of a horizontal segment of a horizontal well are effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the research field of downhole operation in oilfield development, in particular to a horizontal well reverse circulation jet screw drill. Background technique [0002] Sand production in horizontal wells mostly takes multi-segment and multi-cluster hole sections in the horizontal section as the sand production point, the sand production boundary is long, the oil flow direction and the sand settlement direction are perpendicular to the wellbore, and the sand bed is accumulated in a "wave" manner in the horizontal section. With the prolongation of the oil recovery production cycle, problems such as cementation of the bottom hole sand bed, casing scaling, and blast hole plugging appear in the process of oil recovery and production. At present, the traditional sand washing method in my country's oilfields has low operating efficiency, large leakage, and the cemented section of the sand bed is not easy to be washed away and cannot b...
