Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of metal material surface treatment, and particularly relates to a surface treatment method for corrosion resistance and hydrogen embrittlement resistance of oil casing threads. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, China has increased the development of unconventional oil and gas resources such as tight oil and tight gas. These oil and gas wells have put forward higher requirements for the airtightness, connection strength, and corrosion resistance of threaded connections. Traditional API round threads and trapezoidal and buttress threads can no longer meet the requirements of these conditions or environments. For example, in the southwestern and Xinjiang regions of China, special threaded oil well pipes are commonly used for the exploitation of shale oil and gas.
[0003] The coupling is one of the important components for connecting oil casings, and the quality of the coupling will seriously affect the success or failure of drilling and production operations. After investigation, 64% of the oil casing failure accidents abroad occur at the threaded joints, and this proportion in China is as high as 86%. It can be seen that the threaded joint is the weakest part of the oil casing, and the thread quality will directly affect the life of the oil and gas well. As a connecting component of the oil casing, the threaded joint, together with the pipe string, is under the action of complex loads such as tension, compression, bending, internal pressure, and external pressure in the well for a long time, and its corrosion is more likely to occur. Common failure forms such as pitting corrosion, mesa erosion, flow-induced corrosion, and crevice corrosion will lead to failures such as sealing, thread failure, and tubing dropout, causing greater economic losses. Therefore, for special thread structures, it is necessary to maintain long-term sealing integrity and structural integrity under downhole atmospheric pressure, and also need to have high corrosion resistance.
[0004] The patent No. 201110007593.0 applied on January 14, 2012 involves a chromium-nickel-molybdenum composite electroplating method on the surface of special pipe joint threads for oil well pipes. An electroplating process is used to finally obtain a chromium-nickel-molybdenum composite coating on the surface of the pipe joint threads, improving the corrosion resistance of the special pipe joint threads. However, the patent uses a three-layer composite coating, and does not involve the problem of hydrogen embrittlement easily generated in aqueous electroplating of the electroplated coating and crevice corrosion generated under the action of load forces of the coupling in the well, and does not consider the pollution of the electroplating solution to industrial production and the environment. The patent No. 201911048508.8 applied on October 31, 2019 involves a tungsten plating anti-corrosion treatment process for oil pipe couplings. An electroplating process is used to finally obtain a tungsten composite coating on the surface of the oil pipe coupling, and the oil pipe coupling is dried and then heat-treated at 200 °C for nearly 8 hours of tempering to remove hydrogen and infiltrate tungsten to obtain an anti-corrosion oil pipe coupling. However, although this patent considers the hydrogen embrittlement factor of the coating, it does not consider the environmental and crevice corrosion problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Aiming at the problems existing in the above-mentioned existing surface treatment methods for oil casing threads, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a surface treatment method for corrosion resistance and hydrogen embrittlement resistance of oil casing threads. This method can form a dense nickel-boron composite coating on the inner and outer surfaces of the oil casing coupling, not only strengthening the high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the coupling, solving the weaknesses of oil pipe corrosion such as pitting corrosion, flow-induced corrosion and crevice corrosion that are prone to occur in an environment containing corrosive media, but also compared with traditional electroplating solutions, the deep eutectic-based ion electroplating solution usually does not contain water, which can avoid the generation of hydrogen during electrodeposition, so the phenomenon of hydrogen embrittlement in the coating is avoided, it is easy to regenerate and can be recycled, meeting the needs of green and sustainable industrial production.
[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A surface treatment method for corrosion resistance and hydrogen embrittlement resistance of oil casing threads, comprising the following steps:
[0007] S1: Thread processing is carried out on the oil casing coupling, and the thread depth is the designed tooth height, with a tolerance range of ±0.15 mm;
[0008] S2: After thread processing, the oil casing coupling is degreased and defatted with a cleaning agent at room temperature, and flaw detection is carried out;
[0009] S3: Carburizing treatment is carried out on the inner and outer surfaces of the oil casing coupling;
[0010] S4: The carburized oil casing coupling is placed in a deep eutectic-based ion mixture, and a double-pulse power supply is used to deposit on the inner and outer surfaces of the coupling to form a nickel-boron composite coating;
[0011] S5: The oil casing coupling is cleaned with clean water, dried and stored in the warehouse to complete the surface treatment of the oil casing thread for corrosion resistance and hydrogen embrittlement resistance.
[0012] In the thread processing of step S1, the surface roughness value Ra of the thread ≤ 3.2, and the surface roughness value Ra of the sealing surface ≤ 1.6.
[0013] In step S2, the oil casing coupling is degreased and defatted with the cleaning agent at least twice. The cleaning agent is of low alkalinity, with a PH range of 7 - 8. After degreasing and defatting, the inner and outer surfaces of the coupling are cleaned with hot water wash and water wash respectively. The hot water temperature range for hot water wash is 50°C - 60°C, and the water temperature range for water wash is 20°C - 25°C.
[0014] In step S2, the flaw detection method is dye penetrant inspection method or wet magnetic flaw detection method.
[0015] The carburizing treatment in step S3 is carried out in an industrial plasma carburizing furnace. The specific parameters of the carburizing treatment are as follows: the voltage of the power supply system of the industrial plasma carburizing furnace is 200 - 650 V, the duty cycle is 50 - 64%, and the holding time is 3 h - 7 h; when carrying out plasma carbonitriding, the flow rate of the reaction gas H2 is 300 - 450 ml / min, and the flow rate of CO2 is 10 - 25 ml / min; the air pressure during the reaction process is 100 - 200 Pa, the temperature is 300 - 500 °C, and it is cooled in the furnace after completion.
[0016] In step S4, a deep eutectic-based ionic mixture is used. The specific preparation process is as follows: according to the molar ratio, 0.3 - 0.6 parts of 2-hydroxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride and 0.6 - 1.2 parts of glycerol are mixed evenly to form a chlorine-based eutectic ionic solution ChCl-2GlyDES. In the ChCl-2Gly DES ionic solution, 2 - 3 parts of 0.5 mol / l NiCl2·6H2O and 2 - 5 parts of 0.6 mol / l WCl6·2H2O are respectively added to form a ChCl-2Gly-NiCl2·6H2O-WCl6·2H2O deep eutectic ionic electroplating solution.
[0017] In step S4, a dual-pulse power supply is used to deposit on the inner and outer surfaces of the coupling. The specific control parameters are as follows: the voltage of the dual-pulse power supply: 200 - 400 V, the number of pulses is 500 - 999, the duty cycle is 40 - 60%, and the current density is 7 A / dm 2 , and the pulse wave modulation frequency: 100 - 3000 Hz.

Under a sealed state, the mixture is heated and melted. The heating temperature is 70 °C - 80 °C. Stirring continues during the heating process until the mixture becomes a colorless and clear liquid. The obtained colorless and clear liquid is dried for at least 12 hours to form a ChCl-2Gly DES ionic solution, which is stored in a vacuum seal.
[0020] The technical effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0021] 1. After the special threaded oil casing coupling of the present invention is subjected to plasma carburizing treatment, the oxide film can be removed, the hardened layer can be effectively controlled on the thread, shoulder and coupling surface, the deformation amount can be reduced, and at the same time, growth nodes are provided for the epitaxial growth of the coating phase, improving the coating film / substrate bonding strength.
[0022] 2. The deep eutectic ionic electroplating solution of ChCl-2Gly-NiCl2·6H2O-WCl6·2H2O adopted in the present invention, compared with the traditional electroplating solution, usually does not contain water in the ionic liquid, which can avoid the generation of hydrogen during electro-deposition, so it avoids the phenomenon of hydrogen embrittlement in the coating, and there is no waste water discharge. The ionic liquid hardly generates steam, and the ionic liquid is easy to regenerate and can be recycled, which can truly achieve green production.
[0023] 3. The present invention modifies the surfaces of the threads, shoulders and couplings of the oil casing by plasma carburizing process, and adjusts the electroplating process parameters to enhance the bonding force between the material and the coating and increase the coverage rate, thereby forming a nickel-tungsten composite coating with uniform density, electrical insulation, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, improving the high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance (crevice corrosion, pitting corrosion) and wear resistance of the special thread coupling, and prolonging its service life.

After completion, it is cooled in the furnace.
[0036] In step S4, a deep eutectic-based ionic mixture is used.
