Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas exploration, and more specifically to a controllable variable diameter stabilizer for oil drilling and an application method thereof. Background Art

[0002] During the drilling process of oil and gas wells, stabilizers are commonly used downhole tools to maintain the stability of the drill bit and control the wellbore trajectory. The current stabilizers are mainly divided into two categories: fixed stabilizers and adjustable stabilizers. The fixed stabilizer needs to accurately select the tool size according to the wellbore size before going down the well, and it cannot be adjusted after going down the well; while the adjustable stabilizer adjusts the outer diameter of the drill bit after going down the well through mechanical adjustment or hydraulic adjustment to adapt to different wellbore environments. However, the existing adjustable stabilizers have the following technical problems: 1. Insufficient adjustment accuracy: The existing adjustable stabilizers rely on mechanical structures for adjustment, usually requiring manual control, and it is difficult to achieve accurate real-time adjustment. This results in the inability of the stabilizer to quickly adapt to the changes in the wellbore under complex well conditions, thereby affecting the drilling efficiency and wellbore quality, the outer diameter adjustment is inaccurate and slow to respond, and in the traditional oil drilling process, the outer diameter of the stabilizer is usually fixed or can only be adjusted manually to a limited extent, which is difficult to adapt to the complex and changeable working conditions downhole, and the outer diameter adjustment is inaccurate, resulting in a large deviation of the wellbore trajectory during the drilling process, affecting the efficiency and safety of drilling. In addition, some existing automatic adjustment systems are slow to respond to rapid changes in downhole pressure, temperature and drilling pressure, resulting in insufficient real-time adjustment capabilities and increasing the risk of wellbore instability or tool jamming. 2. Slow response speed: Since mechanical adjustment or hydraulic adjustment usually requires a certain amount of operation time, the existing adjustable stabilizer responds slowly during the adjustment process and is difficult to quickly respond to complex downhole working conditions. Especially when the outer diameter of the stabilizer needs to be adjusted frequently to control the wellbore trajectory, lags often occur, affecting the continuity of the drilling process. The existing stabilizer adjustment system generally lacks an accurate feedback mechanism and cannot monitor the downhole drill bit posture, wellbore trajectory and other key parameters in real time and accurately. This lack of feedback adjustment method will cause adjustment lag or inaccuracy, which in turn affects the overall efficiency of the drilling process. The existing sensor system has insufficient accuracy and poor real-time performance, which also increases the difficulty for ground control personnel to judge downhole working conditions. 3. Difficult downhole control: Current technology cannot achieve automated and intelligent control of downhole stabilizers, and often requires ground operators to make adjustments. This not only increases the difficulty of operation, but also greatly reduces the accuracy and efficiency of ground control in complex well conditions such as deep wells and ultra-deep wells. 4. Poor durability: Due to the extremely harsh downhole environment, the mechanical components of existing adjustable stabilizers are easily affected by high temperature, high pressure and corrosive fluids, resulting in poor durability and limited service life. Therefore, the existing stabilizers have obvious deficiencies in accuracy, response speed, downhole control and durability. 5. Poor stability of the system under extreme working conditions: The downhole environment of oil drilling is complex and changeable, and it is affected by high pressure, high temperature, vibration and other extreme conditions. Traditional stabilizers are prone to failure or unstable operation in such environments. Especially in high-pressure and high-temperature environments, the outer diameter adjustment mechanism of the traditional stabilizer is often difficult to maintain a stable adjustment function due to limited mechanical properties, thereby increasing the incidence of drilling accidents.

It can automatically connect and perform auxiliary adjustment when the electric adjustment module cannot provide sufficient power, ensuring the stability and reliability of the system under extreme conditions, significantly reducing the risk of tool failure or failure due to harsh working conditions during drilling, and improving overall safety;

[0048] 3. The present invention introduces a multi-sensor feedback module to realize intelligent control. By integrating multiple sensors, including drilling pressure, attitude, borehole trajectory and temperature sensors, a complete sensor feedback module is constructed. The sensor data is transmitted to the intelligent control module in real time through the communication module, which can grasp the downhole working conditions in real time and make outer diameter adjustment decisions in time. The downhole information can also be transmitted to the ground control center, which is convenient for operators to monitor the operating status of downhole equipment in real time and conduct manual intervention when necessary.
