Abstract

This invention discloses a double-walled drill pipe, comprising an upper short connector, an outer tube, and a lower short connector connected sequentially from top to bottom by threads, and an inner tube disposed within the central channel of the outer tube. Both the upper and lower short connectors have a central channel and an eccentric channel along their axial direction. The inner tube is fitted inside the outer tube with a gap, forming a double-walled tube with a central channel and an annular channel. Both ends are fixed to the walls of the central channels of the upper and lower short connectors, respectively, so that the central channels of the upper and lower short connectors communicate with the central channel of the inner tube to form a first fluid passage. The eccentric channels of the two short connectors communicate with the annular channel formed between the inner and outer tube walls to form a second fluid passage. Simultaneously, a shoulder seal is formed between the two threaded components, preventing the first and second fluid passages from communicating. This double-walled drill pipe effectively prevents the inner tube from jumping up and down during use, and significantly improves the sealing pressure-bearing capacity and reliability between the long inner and outer tubes.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drilling, and in particular to a double-wall drill pipe. Background Art

[0002] Double-wall drill pipe drilling method refers to the method of drilling using double-wall drill pipe and other auxiliary equipment, mainly including low-pressure drilling, center sampling drilling, RDM technology and double-wall gas-filled drilling, etc. This method has been continuously valued and promoted in the field of geological and mining departments and oil drilling.

[0003] At present, the double-wall drill pipe commonly used in the double-wall drill pipe drilling method consists of an inner pipe and an outer pipe. The inner pipe is installed in the outer pipe to form two flow channels, namely the annular gap between the inner and outer pipes and the internal channel of the inner pipe; the outer pipes are connected by threads, and the inner pipes are connected by plug-in radial sealing structures to achieve connection and prevent fluid communication between the two channels. However, the double-wall drill pipe of this structure has the following problems: ① The inner and outer drill pipes are both long, and their length can reach about 10m. The concentricity of the inner and outer pipes is difficult to ensure, resulting in a large gap between the male and female joints of the inner pipe plug-in seal. Under high pressure, the sealing ring is easily squeezed into the gap between the male and female joints to damage the assembly sealing ring, reducing the sealing pressure bearing capacity and reliability; ② Frequent disassembly and assembly of the drill pipe may cause the sealing ring to curl and squeeze, reducing the sealing pressure bearing capacity and reliability; ③ Due to the space limitation between the inner and outer pipes, the inner pipe needs to be suspended on the upper step of the outer pipe. Due to the small step surface and the up and down vibration of the inner pipe during the use of the double-wall drill pipe, it is easy to cause the suspension step to fail, and the inner and outer pipes are misaligned up and down; the up and down vibration of the inner pipe will also greatly reduce the service life of the sealing ring. The failure of the seal ring will lead to the failure of the double-wall drill pipe drilling method, which seriously hinders the promotion and application of the double-wall drill pipe drilling technology. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the life and reliability of the key equipment in the double-wall drill pipe drilling method, that is, the double-wall drill pipe seal, so as to further promote the development of the double-wall drill pipe drilling technology.
