Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rock mass mechanics tests, in particular to a water retention and pressure relief device and method suitable for stress testing of deep-water drilling holes. Background technique [0002] Conventional hydraulic fracturing methods for in-situ stress testing are mainly divided into single-pipe method and double-pipe method. The single-pipe method realizes the pressure channel switching between the packer and the test section by connecting a push-pull valve between the drill pipe and the double-plug packer. It is suitable for continuous and rapid testing of deep drilling with high water level (generally the water level does not exceed 50m). easy to use. The double-pipe method forms two pressure channels by connecting a slender high-pressure water pipe and drill pipe outside the packer, which is suitable for shallow drilling tests and is complicated to operate. As the burial depth of underground engineering...

The double-pipe method forms two pressure channels by connecting the slender high-pressure water pipe and the drill pipe outside the packer, which is suitable for shallow drilling tests and is complicated to operate

As the burial depth of underground engineering becomes larger and larger, geological boreholes with large burial depth and deep water level will generally exist. Generally, the single-pipe method is used for testing, but the pressure formed by the difference between the inner and outer water heads of the drill pipe during the process of injecting water into the drill pipe will increase. As a result, the packer is self-expanding and fixed on the hole wall and cannot be moved. Therefore, a supporting pressure relief device is required to relieve the pressure of the packer alone. However, the existing pressure relief method is relatively inefficient, and the test time required is far longer than that of high water level drilling.

[0003] At present, there are mainly two types of pressure relief methods with high operability: the first pressure relief method cannot be continuously tested after the packer pressure is removed, and the packer needs to be fully lifted by the drill pipe after a test section is completed. On the ground, restore the pressure relief device manually, and then connect the drill pipe again and lower it to the designated position through the winch of the drilling rig, and refill the drill pipe with water. This method of pressure relief is the least efficient, and
