Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of petroleum equipment, and in particular to a cleaning tool for a barrel of an oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the process of oil exploration and development, a large amount of oil-containing drill cuttings that pollute the environment will be generated, and the oil-containing drill cuttings need to be harmlessly treated. In the existing technology, the supercritical CO2 extraction method for treating oil-containing drill cuttings has the advantages of low temperature, low energy consumption, no fission of base oil, and direct secondary slurry preparation. Among them, more than 99% of the oil and water in the oil-containing drill cuttings will be extracted, leaving dry drill cuttings blocks with low hardness and relatively loose. After the barrel containing the oil-containing drill cuttings is extracted by the extraction kettle, the dry drill cuttings need to be cleaned. In the past, it was manually cleaned, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and was not conducive to large-scale and rapid operations. Summary of the invention

[0023] Embodiment 1:

[0024] In order to overcome the problem that the existing oil-containing drill cuttings cleaning tools rely on manual cleaning, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is not conducive to large-scale and rapid operations, this embodiment provides a Figure 1 and Figure 2 The oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle barrel cleaning tool shown is a tool for cleaning the oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle barrel, comprising a drill rod 1, a dust cover 4 and a drill bit 5, wherein the dust cover 4 is provided with a through hole in the center, a rolling bearing 3 is provided in the through hole, a linear bearing 2 is provided inside the rolling bearing 3, the drill bit 5 is connected to the lower end of the drill rod 1, a scraper 7 is connected to the lower part of the drill bit 5, the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5 pass through the linear bearing 2, and the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5 can move up and down and rotate.

[0025] The working principle of the oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle barrel cleaning tool provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0026] The upper cover and the lower cover of the barrel 10 that needs to be cleaned are removed, and the cleaning tool is placed directly above the barrel 10. The drill rod 1 is driven to move up and down and rotate by the liftable top drive, thereby driving the drill bit 5 to move up and down and rotate in the barrel 10. The dry drill cuttings in the barrel 10 are cleaned out under the action of the drill bit 5 and the scraper 7. When the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5 move up and down and rotate, the dry drill cuttings in the barrel 10 will splash out from the upper end of the barrel 10. Therefore, a dust cover 4 is provided. A through hole is provided in the center of the dust cover 4. When the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5 move up and down and rotate in the through hole, the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5 will generate friction with the center of the dust cover 4, which can easily damage the equipment. Therefore, a rolling bearing 3 is provided in the through hole in the center of the dust cover 4, and a linear bearing 2 is provided inside the rolling bearing 3 to reduce damage and extend the service life of the tool.

[0027] The oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle barrel cleaning tool of the present invention has a simple structure and reliable performance. The barrel cleaning work can be completed through simple lifting and rotating operations, which is convenient for automatic control and solves the problem of manual cleaning, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive and not conducive to large-scale and rapid operations. At the same time, a dust cover is provided to prevent dust, and rolling bearings and linear bearings are provided on the dust cover to reduce damage and extend the service life of the tool.

In order to clean the dry drill cuttings in the barrel more thoroughly and to ensure that the drill bit 5 is subjected to uniform force when rotating, there are two scrapers 7, which are respectively located on both sides of the drill bit 5.

[0030] Embodiment 3:

[0031] Based on Example 1 or Example 2, this embodiment provides an oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle barrel cleaning tool, wherein the drill bit 5 is provided with a groove for placing a scraper, and one end of the scraper 7 is connected to the groove of the drill bit 5 through a rotating shaft 6. The scraper 7 can rotate up and down around the rotating shaft 6, and the angle between the scraper 7 and the drill bit 5 is 0 to 90 degrees.

[0032] The upper part of the drill bit 5 is a threaded male buckle, which is convenient for installing drill rods of different lengths. The lower part of the drill bit 5 is a twist drill bit with a diameter larger than other parts, which is convenient for rotary drilling. The groove of the drill bit 5 can completely accommodate the scraper 7, which is helpful for establishing a drilling path. The scraper 7 is first in a retracted state, and the drill bit 5 drills a path from top to bottom in the barrel 10, so that the drill bit 5 drills out of the bottom of the barrel 10, and then the scraper 7 is unfolded by the centrifugal force of high-speed rotation, and then rotated at medium speed and slowly lifted up to clean the drill cuttings in the barrel 10, so that the dry drill cuttings are easy to fall, and the centrifugal force can be used to clean the drill cuttings that fall on the drill bit 5 to prevent the scraper 7 from being stuck.

[0033] Embodiment 4:

[0034] On the basis of Example 1 or Example 2, this embodiment provides a cleaning tool for the barrel of an oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle, and further, the free end of the scraper 7 is connected with a brush 8. One end of the brush 8 has dense and thin wear-resistant fibers with a certain hardness, which is conducive to cleaning the drill cuttings on the inner wall of the barrel 10, and the brush 8 is connected to the scraper 7 by a thread, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0035] Embodiment 5:

[0036] On the basis of Example 1 or Example 2, this embodiment provides an oil-containing drill cuttings extraction kettle barrel cleaning tool. Furthermore, a plurality of protrusions 9 are provided on one side above the scraper 7, which facilitates point-to-surface cutting of dry drill cuttings blocks, and facilitates cleaning of dry drill cuttings when the drill bit 5 moves up and down and rotates, while avoiding the difficulty of cleaning dry drill cuttings agglomerates and damage caused by excessive rotation speed of the drill bit 5.

[0037] Embodiment 6:

[0041] Step 1) Connect the upper end of the drill rod 1 of the cleaning tool to the liftable top drive, raise the liftable top drive to the highest point, remove the upper cover and the lower cover of the barrel 10 containing dry drill cuttings, and place the barrel 10 directly below the cleaning tool and directly above the drill cuttings recovery box;

[0042] Step 2) Connect the dust cover 4 to the upper end of the barrel 10, the bottom end of the drill bit 5 is located in the linear bearing 2, and the liftable top drive is turned on. The liftable top drive drives the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5 to rotate and move downward at the same time, and the drill bit 5 drills a channel in the barrel 10;

[0043] Step 3) When the drill bit 5 is completely exposed below the barrel 10, the rotation speed of the liftable top drive is increased, the rotation speed of the drill bit 5 is increased, and the angles between the two scrapers 7 and the drill bit 5 are both 90 degrees through centrifugal force, and then the drill bit 5 is lifted up, and the scrapers 7 will clean the dry drill cuttings in the barrel 10 layer by layer, and the brush 8 will clean the inner wall of the barrel 10, causing it to fall into the drill cuttings recovery box;

[0044] Step 4) When the drill bit 5 reaches the top of the barrel 10, rotate and lower the drill bit 5, and then rotate and lift the drill bit 5 to the top of the barrel 10 until the inside of the barrel 10 is cleaned. Finally, remove the dust cover 4, extract the drill rod 1 and the drill bit 5, and clean the cleaning tool.

[0045] Furthermore, when the angles between the two scrapers 7 and the drill bit 5 are both 90 degrees, the brush 8 and the inner wall of the barrel 10 are in contact with each other.
