AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the exploration and development of oil and natural gas, the borehole size necking, blocking, collapse of the well wall, and rock chip deposition caused by poor stability, cause drilling rod to be stuck. Especially in gas drilling conditions and horizontal well drilling conditions, accidents of external thread joint failure occur frequently during the unblocking process, which restricts the application and development of gas drilling technology and horizontal well drilling technology.

Method used

A drill rod with anti-blocking joint is designed, which includes joint A and joint B. Joint A processes axial and circumferential grooves with a certain depth distributed at equal intervals on the conical steps to form milling teeth, so that joint A has a cutting function, cuts deposited rock chips or necked wellbores, and the axial grooves allow the cuts to have a flow channel, realizing the unblocking and unblocking of the entire drill string when it encounters a jam.

Benefits of technology

By machining axial and circumferential grooves on the drill rod joints to form a milling tooth structure, the drill rod can effectively cut deposits and necked wellbores when encountering a clamping resistance, thereby realizing the unblocking, avoiding failure accidents of fracture of external thread joints, and improving the application and development of drilling technology.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of drill rods for oil and natural gas exploration and development, in particular to a drill rod with an anti-jamming joint. Background Art

[0002] During the exploration and development of oil and natural gas (coalbed methane), the borehole size shrinkage, well wall block loss, collapse, and rock debris deposition caused by poor well wall stability often cause the drill string to get stuck. Due to the structural characteristics that the outer diameter of the drill pipe external threaded joint is much larger than the size of the pipe body (for example, the outer diameter of the drill pipe joint corresponding to the 127mm drill pipe body is 168mm), the blocking point is often located on the 35° slope surface of the external threaded joint. During the unblocking operation of lifting, twisting, lifting + twisting, the friction and wear between the well wall (sand sedimentation) and the drill pipe joint often leads to a reduction in the effective cross-section of the drill pipe external threaded joint at the 35° slope surface, and even the high temperature generated by friction causes the joint's structure to undergo a phase change, resulting in failure accidents such as plastic deformation or fracture of the drill pipe. Especially under gas drilling conditions and horizontal drilling conditions, the stability of the well wall is poor, well wall block falling and collapse are common, the risk of drill pipe jamming is very high, and accidents of external threaded joints breaking and failing in the drill pipe unjamming process occur frequently, which restricts the application and development of gas drilling technology and horizontal well drilling technology.
