Problems solved by technology

However, due to the influence of the surface roughness of the inner wall of the casing, the pressure-bearing performance of the seal after subsidy reinforcement is unstable, and varies greatly due to different well conditions. The reason is that the extrusion force when the seal is anchored is required to be controlled within a certain range from the perspective of construction safety. , and the soft metal material has limited bonding ability with the surface of the casing after plastic deformation, and cannot seal the small concave-convex surface on the inner surface of the casing. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the sealing anchor structure to meet the sealing requirements under the condition that the inner surface of the casing is not smooth.

Abstract

The invention relates to a multi-ring metal framework seal anchoring member, a patching pipe member and a mounting device. The multi-ring metal framework seal anchoring member comprises a seal expansion zone and a connection buffer zone which are connected and arranged coaxially, wherein the seal expansion zone comprises a plurality of rubber expansion rings and metal expansion rings coaxially arranged at intervals on the surface of a pipe body, and the connection buffer zone is of a pipe body structure. According to the multi-ring metal framework seal anchoring member, the patching pipe member and the mounting device, in the transmission process under a well, expanded rubber wrapping the surface of a patching pipe is not worn by scratching with the wall of the well; during patching, when a taper sleeve is extruded, a multi-ring metal framework anchor is expanded to the inner wall of a casing, and metal interference fit is formed; after the patching process, the expanded rubber reacts with well fluid and expands to seal the annulus gap between the casing and the patching pipe; and the anchor sealing device, composed of the multi-ring metal framework anchor and the wrapping expanded rubber, can seal the casing which is not smooth in surface because of corrosion or abrasion, patching sealing effects are improved, and sealing performance is better than that of an anchor structure with single soft metal for sealing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a casing subsidy device used in the field of oil and gas production in oil fields, in particular to a multi-ring metal skeleton sealing and anchoring component, a subsidizing pipe component and an installation device. Background technique [0002] In the process of oilfield development and production, timely and effective plugging and strengthening of damaged casings is an important measure to ensure the continuous development and production of oilfields. In the past, the subsidized pipe was used to seal and strengthen the casing. Soft metal was used as the sealing filling material, and the soft metal was filled between the annular space between the casing and the subsidized pipe by extrusion to play a role of sealing and anchoring. However, due to the influence of the surface roughness of the inner wall of the casing, the pressure-bearing performance of the seal after subsidy reinforcement is unstable, and varies greatly due t...
