Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of filling mining, and specifically relates to a device and method for cutting and mixing casing in a horizontal wellbore. Background Art

[0002] In mining projects, roof horizontal wells are mainly used for the exploitation of oil and gas resources such as shale gas and coalbed methane. With the high-intensity exploitation of coal resources, large-scale goafs are accompanied, which leads to surface subsidence, aquifer destruction, soil erosion, and waste dumping, causing regional ecosystem disorder. Using roof horizontal wells for mining and filling in large, high-yield and high-efficiency mines can solve a series of ecological problems in coal mining areas. Among them, horizontal wells are mainly used as channels for conveying paste double slurry during mining and filling. During the filling process, the double slurry needs to be fully stirred. At the same time, due to the limited coverage of the filling slurry in the goaf, as the comprehensive mining face gradually advances, the outlet of the filling slurry needs to be continuously moved forward. Therefore, it is required to perform fixed-point cutting of the slurry conveying pipeline in the goaf. At present, there are no cases at home and abroad for devices that integrate cutting and mixing in narrow spaces.

[0003] On the one hand, conventional mixers are driven by motors to mix multiple slurries. However, due to their large size and large space occupation, they form barriers to the paste and double slurries and are not suitable for horizontal holes. In addition, the paste and double slurries solidify during the transportation process, causing pipe blockage and bursting, further reducing work efficiency.

[0004] Secondly, the fixed-point cutting of the casing currently mainly includes conventional hydraulic cutter cutting. This cutting method has certain safety risks because sparks are easily generated during the cutting process.

[0005] Thirdly, cutting and mixing are two relatively independent processes. The construction process is complicated and requires repeated lifting and lowering of pipes, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, seriously affecting the efficiency of construction.

[0006] Therefore, in view of the above problems, the design of the present invention, through intensive research and careful design, has developed a tool that can meet the needs of conveying paste slurry and cutting casing at a fixed point, so that the tool can cut the casing in sections once entering the well, and at the same time achieve uniform mixing of the two slurries.
