Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of offshore oil drilling technology, specifically relating to a deep-water drilling indoor vibration test device and method. It is mainly used in the field of offshore oil drilling to collect drilling pressure, rotation speed, torque, displacement and vibration data of drill string system through indoor experiments. Background Technology
[0002] In offshore oil drilling, impact and vibration are the main factors restricting the speed and efficiency of deepwater drilling. Conducting laboratory experiments is an important means of studying the dynamic characteristics of deepwater drilling, and also a crucial basis for optimizing and correcting the boundary conditions of various virtual drilling systems. Current deepwater drilling laboratory experimental setups mainly consist of single riser and drilling equipment experimental devices, which cannot accurately simulate the actual working conditions of deepwater drilling. Therefore, existing equipment cannot accurately obtain the dynamic characteristics of the drill string system to explore the vibration characteristics and motion trajectory during offshore drilling.
[0003] In the prior art, a patent entitled "A Simulation Test Device for the Vibration Characteristics of a Riser under Deepwater Drilling Conditions" simulates the vibration performance of a riser under different deepwater drilling conditions. This test device only studies the riser model but does not consider the influence of marine environmental loads on the dynamic characteristics of the drill string. Another patent entitled "An Active Vibration Control System for a Deepwater Drilling Riser System" uses sensors to monitor the vibration information of the deepwater drilling riser system and realizes active control of the lateral and longitudinal vibrations of the deepwater drilling riser system. However, this system also does not consider the influence of marine environmental loads on the drill string system, and the experiment cannot obtain signals such as torsion, which still has certain limitations in understanding the dynamic characteristics of the drill string system.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a device that can simulate actual deep-water drilling conditions and obtain the dynamic characteristics of the drill string system under these conditions, so as to achieve a more accurate understanding of the dynamic characteristics of the drill string system, reduce and suppress vibration by accurately setting the boundary conditions of the drill string system, and improve the mechanical drilling rate of deep-water drilling.

[0044] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0045] Example 1
[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides a deep-water drilling indoor vibration test device, including a derrick 1, a rock sample clamping mechanism 2, an air wave generator 3, and a sensor group;
[0047] A power head 4 is installed on the upper part of the derrick 1, and a torque measuring instrument 5 is installed at the lower end of the power head 4. A flexible drill string 6 is connected to the lower end of the torque measuring instrument 5. A hydraulic cylinder 7 is connected to the lower end of the flexible drill string 6. The hydraulic cylinder 7 is fixed on the derrick 1. A rigid drill string 8 is connected to the lower end of the hydraulic cylinder 7. A drill bit 9 is connected to the end of the rigid drill string 8. A horizontal plate is installed at the bottom of the derrick 1. A through hole is opened on the horizontal plate. The rigid drill string 8 passes through the through hole and connects to the drill bit 9.
[0048] The derrick 1 is installed on the ground. The derrick 1 includes an upper derrick and a lower derrick. The height of the derrick 1 can be adjusted by adjusting the installation position of the upper derrick on the lower derrick.
[0049] The power head 4 can be a power head from an existing water well drilling rig. The power head 4 is mounted on the top of the derrick 1 via a base. The power head 4 provides drilling pressure and torque to the drill bit 9 through the flexible drill string 6 and the rigid drill string 8. The hydraulic cylinder 7 provides greater drilling pressure to the drill bit 9 through the rigid drill string 8, solving the problem that the flexible drill string 6 cannot transmit sufficient drilling pressure to break rocks. The power head 4 and the hydraulic cylinder 7 constitute the power system of the device.
[0050] Please refer to the reference. Figure 2 and Figure 3The hydraulic cylinder 7 includes a cylindrical cylinder rod 701. Bearing grooves are provided at both ends of the inner wall of the cylinder rod 701. A drive shaft 702 passes through the center of the cylinder rod 701. The upper and lower ends of the drive shaft 702 are connected to a flexible drill string 6 and a rigid drill string 8, respectively. A bearing 703 is provided between the drive shaft 702 and the cylinder rod 701. The bearing 703 is a tapered roller bearing and is located within the bearing groove. A cylinder sleeve 704 is fitted over the cylinder rod 701. The sealed gap between the cylinder sleeve 703 and the cylinder rod 701 is an oil cavity. The cylinder rod 701 is provided with an annular protrusion 705, which divides the oil cavity into an upper oil cavity and a lower oil cavity. An upper oil port and a lower oil port are respectively provided at both ends of the upper and lower oil cavities, and the upper and lower oil ports are connected to an external pressurizing device. When oil enters through the upper oil port and exits through the lower oil port, the oil pushes the annular protrusion 705 to move the cylinder rod 701 downward, increasing the drilling pressure of the rigid drill string 8; when oil enters through the lower oil port and exits through the upper oil port, the oil pushes the annular protrusion 705 to move the cylinder rod 701 upward, reducing the drilling pressure of the rigid drill string 8.
[0051] The cylinder barrel 704 is fixed on the derrick 1 by the mounting base. A limit bar 706 is longitudinally provided on the cylinder rod 701. The limit bar 706 is U-shaped and its two ends are connected to the upper and lower ends of the cylinder rod 701 respectively. A limit block 707 is provided on the outer wall of the cylinder barrel 704. An opening groove is opened on the limit block 707. The limit bar 706 passes through the opening groove. A limit pressure plate 708 is connected to the opening groove.
[0052] The limit rod 706, together with the limit block 707, can prevent the cylinder rod 701 from rotating during up and down movement.
[0053] The flexible drill string 6 is woven from steel wire rope with high torsional stiffness and low bending stiffness, enabling the transmission of torque and drill pressure from the power head 4 to the drill bit. The flexible drill string 6 exhibits high torsional strength and low bending strength, simulating the buckling and deformation of the drill string due to its ultra-high slenderness ratio during deep and ultra-deep marine well drilling. The flexible drill string 13 is woven from steel wire rope using different weaving methods, with male and female connectors pressed and welded at both ends, allowing for convenient and stable connection to the torque measuring instrument 5 and the rigid drill string 8. This ensures the stability of the experimental process and realizes a drill string system that undergoes torsion and bending under dynamic marine environmental load disturbances and drill pressure / torque driving.
[0054] The flexible drill string 6 and the rigid drill string 8 constitute the drill string system of the device.
[0055] The rock sample clamping mechanism 2 is used to clamp the rock sample, which is located below the drill bit 9. The drill bit 9 includes a full-size oil drill bit. The rock sample is composed of rock samples of different components. The drill bit 9 can break different types of rock samples.
[0056] Please refer to the reference. Figure 4The rock sample clamping mechanism 2 includes a base plate 201, with upright plates 202 on both sides of the base plate 201. Through holes are formed at the same positions on both upright plates 202, and these through holes can be located at the center of the upright plates 202. An internally threaded cylinder is embedded within the through hole, and a screw rod 203 is screwed onto the internally threaded cylinder. A clamping plate 204 is rotatably connected to the inner end of the screw rod 203. A shaft hole is provided on the outer wall of the clamping plate 204, and the end of the screw rod 203 is inserted into the shaft hole. The screw rod 203 can push the clamping plate 204 inward, and the two clamping plates 204 are used to hold the rock sample. When the rock sample is clamped by the rock sample clamping mechanism 2, the rock sample is placed on the base plate 201, and the screw rods 203 at both ends are rotated. The screw rods 203 push the clamping plates 204 to clamp the rock sample, ensuring the stability of the rock sample during the rock breaking process of the drill bit 9. The rock sample clamping mechanism 2 can clamp rock samples of different sizes and compositions.
[0057] A wrench is provided at the outer end of the screw 203, which makes it easier to rotate the screw 203.
[0058] The rock sample holding mechanism 2, the rock sample and the drill bit 9 constitute the drill bit-rock interaction system.
[0059] Please refer to the reference. Figure 5 The air wave generator 3 is set on one side of the derrick 1. The air wave generator 3 is mounted on the bottom surface by a bracket. The air wave generator 3 includes a wave pool 301, which is located below the power head 4. A hole is opened at the bottom of the wave pool 301. The flexible drill string 6 passes through the hole from top to bottom through the wave pool 301. A sealing plug is provided between the hole and the flexible drill string 6 to prevent water from leaking from the hole.
[0060] The air wave generator 3 can adopt existing technology and includes an equipment room 302, an air storage room 303, and an air chamber 304. The equipment room 302 is equipped with an electrical control system 305 and a fan 306. The fan 306 is a high-pressure centrifugal fan, and the air outlet of the fan 306 is connected to the air storage room 303. The air storage room 303 is connected to the equipment room 302 through a pipeline. A connection port is provided between the air chamber 304 and the equipment room 302. A valve 307 is provided at the connection port. The valve 307, the fan 306, and the electrical control system 305 are connected. A silencer 308 is provided on the equipment room 302. The lower part of the air chamber 304 is connected to the wave pool 301.
[0061] In this embodiment, the air wave generator 12 provides wave force under different marine environmental loads, which dynamically acts on the flexible drill string 6. The rock sample holder 2 fixes different types of rock samples that simulate different strata in actual drilling. The flexible drill string 6 transmits torque to the rigid drill string 8 and then to the drill bit 9. The drill bit 9 interacts with the rock sample to break the rock.
[0062] In this embodiment, the power head 4 can provide a smaller drilling pressure to conduct indoor experiments on the pre-bent flexible drill string 6 and study its buckling deformation. A system composed of an air wave generator 3 and the flexible drill string 6 simulates the dynamic disturbances of wave forces and ocean currents on the drill string system in marine drilling engineering. The electrical control system 305 of the air wave generator 3 controls the airflow of the fan 306 and the opening and closing of the valve 307 to provide waves of different intensities. The fan 306 provides power, and the gas stored in the air storage chamber 303 is introduced into the air chamber 304 through the airflow blown by the fan 306, compressing the free water surface within the air chamber 304. By repeatedly pumping air out of the air chamber 304, waves can be formed in the wave pool 301, simulating the periodic impact of marine environmental loads on the flexible drill string 6, thus realizing the simulation of the drill string system under the influence of dynamic marine environmental loads.
[0063] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sensor group includes a displacement sensor 10, an acceleration sensor 11, and a pressure sensor 12. The displacement sensor 10 is mounted on the derrick 1, specifically on the upper part of the derrick 1, and is used to measure the displacement generated by the flexible drill string 6. The acceleration sensor 11 is fixedly attached to the surface of the rigid drill string 8 and is used to measure the triaxial acceleration of the rigid drill string 8. The pressure sensor 12 is located at the bottom of the rock sample clamping mechanism and is used to measure the drilling pressure of the drill bit 9.
[0064] The pressure sensor 12 is set on the bottom surface of the base plate 201 of the rock sample clamping mechanism 2. The pressure sensor 12 is mounted on the pressure sensor base 13, which is equipped with four rollers. There are two tracks on the ground. The tracks are grooved, and the rollers can roll along the tracks to facilitate the drilling position of the drill bit 9 on the rock sample and to facilitate the removal of the rock sample for replacement.

The torque measuring instrument 5 utilizes existing technology and includes a clamping plate 501, a power head housing 502, an input shaft 503, an output shaft 504, a torque and speed sensor 505, and a transmitter 506. The torque measuring instrument 5 can stably collect and record the speed and torque of the drill string at high speeds. The torque measuring instrument 5 is fixedly mounted on the derrick 1 via the clamping plate 501. The input shaft 503 is connected to the lower end of the power head 4, and the output shaft 54 is connected to the upper end of the flexible drill string. The torque and speed sensor 505 is connected between the input shaft 503 and the output shaft 504.

A transmitter 506 is installed on the outer wall of the power head housing 502. The transmitter 506 is connected to the control and data processing terminal to transmit the data measured by the torque and speed sensor 505 to the external control and data processing terminal for data processing.

The sensors in the data acquisition system are connected to an external control and data processing terminal. The data acquired by the data acquisition system is transmitted to the control and data processing terminal for processing and analysis. Through the data acquisition system, the dynamic characteristics of the drill string system when the drill bit breaks different types of rock samples can be obtained, and the dynamic characteristic parameters of the drill string system under different drilling pressure, rotation speed, and wave conditions can be obtained.

[0074] Furthermore, during the rock-breaking drilling of the rock sample by the drill bit 9, the drilling pressure and torque of the power head 4 are adjusted according to the depth of the drill bit 9 into the rock sample. The drilling pressure applied by the hydraulic cylinder 7 to the rigid drill string 8 and the drill bit 9 is adjusted. The wave force generated by the air wave generator 3 is adjusted. The torque measuring instrument 5 and various sensors collect the torque, speed, displacement of the flexible drill string 6, the triaxial acceleration of the rigid drill string 8, and the drilling pressure applied to the rock sample under different conditions.
[0075] The deep-water drilling indoor vibration test method in this example can carry out vibration data measurement experiments on the rock breaking of the drill bit 9 under different rock samples under different drilling pressure, rotation speed and wave conditions.
[0076] Prepare different types of rock samples, install rock sample clamping mechanism 2 and clamp the rock samples;
[0077] The ground drilling parameters in the indoor experiment are set, including drilling conditions and marine environmental conditions.

[0078] After determining the surface drilling parameters, the drill bit 9 is raised. A water tap can be installed on one side of the rock sample clamping mechanism 2. The water tap is turned on for standby use to cool the drill bit 9 and flush the rock cuttings. The data acquisition system is turned on, and each sensor and torque measuring instrument 5 starts collecting data. Drilling pressure, torque and wave force are applied to the drill string system to conduct the rock breaking test of the drill bit 9.
[0079] The drilling pressure, torque, and wave force were adjusted according to the depth of the drill bit 9 into the rock. Drill pressure, rotation speed, displacement, and pressure information under different conditions were collected. The above parameters constituted the vibration information of the drill string system, and the experiment was continued.

Experiments on different rock samples are continued, and the above steps are repeated to collect and analyze the vibration information of the drill string system under different rock samples until the experiment ends. Then, power head 4, hydraulic cylinder 7, and air wave generator 3 are turned off again, and the data acquisition system finishes data acquisition. The data collected by the data acquisition system is uploaded to an external control and data processing terminal for processing and analysis, and the dynamic characteristic parameters of the drill string system are analyzed.
