As a key piece of equipment in the drilling process, the drilling mud circulation system plays a vital role in maintaining wellbore pressure and preventing blowouts and lost circulation.

[0003] In the polar regions' perennially low temperatures, the density and rheological properties of drilling mud change, impacting wellbore cleaning efficiency, wellbore pressure control, wellbore stability, and cuttings transport, ultimately impacting drilling safety.

[0056] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0057] To address the problem that related technologies cannot effectively cool drilling mud, this embodiment proposes a polar drilling mud temperature control system, method, and controller. The system includes a mud return module, a diverter valve, a shutoff valve, a diverter pump, a natural cooling pipe, an insulated pipe, a collecting valve, a mud circulation module, and a controller. The diverter valve's input is connected to the polar wellbore's mud output via the mud return module. The diverter valve's first output is connected to the collecting valve's first input via the shutoff valve, the diverter pump, and the natural cooling pipe, and the diverter valve's second output is connected to the collecting valve's second input via the insulated pipe. The collecting valve's output is connected to the polar wellbore's mud input via the mud circulation module. This embodiment can determine if the first mud temperature in the mud return module is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, then control the diverter pump's speed to distribute the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulated pipe, thereby cooling the drilling mud and improving the cooling accuracy of the drilling mud, effectively achieving cooling of the drilling mud.

[0058] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 5 The polar drilling mud temperature control system of the present invention is described.

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes a first polar drilling mud temperature control system, which includes: a mud return module, a diverter valve, a stop valve, a diverter pump, a natural cooling pipe, an insulation pipe, a collecting valve, a mud circulation module and a controller;

[0060] The input end of the diverter valve is connected to the mud output end of the polar wellbore through the mud return module. The first output end of the diverter valve is connected to the first input end of the collecting valve through the stop valve, the diverter pump, and the natural cooling pipe in sequence. The second output end of the diverter valve is connected to the second input end of the collecting valve through the insulation pipe.

[0061] The output end of the collecting valve is connected to the mud input end of the polar wellbore through the mud circulation module;

[0062] The controller is communicatively connected to the mud return module, the shut-off valve, the shunt pump and the mud circulation module, and is used to determine that the first mud temperature in the mud return module is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, and then control the speed of the shunt pump to distribute the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe to cool the drilling mud.

[0063] The mud return module can be used to receive and transfer drilling mud returned from the polar wellbore to achieve recycling of the drilling mud. It should be noted that the mud return module can pre-set a target mud flow rate, receive and transfer drilling mud based on the target mud flow rate, and control the mud flow rate in the mud return module to maintain the target mud flow rate.

[0064] The natural cooling pipe may be a pipe for naturally cooling the drilling mud flowing through it. The heat-insulating pipe may be a pipe for heat-insulating the drilling mud flowing through it.

[0065] Specifically, the mud circulation module can be used to store drilling mud and transport drilling mud to polar wellbores.

[0066] Optionally, the controller may be a controller that uses a set control algorithm to perform temperature control.

[0067] The first mud temperature may be the temperature of the drilling mud in the mud return module.

[0068] The maximum allowable temperature may be the highest temperature in the normal operating temperature range of the drilling mud, and may be set by technicians based on actual conditions, and is not limited in this embodiment.

[0069] It is understandable that in this embodiment, the judgment result of whether the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature can be used as a control basis for whether to cool the drilling mud.

[0070] Specifically, the mud return module can collect the first mud temperature and send it to the controller. The controller determines whether the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature. If it is determined that the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, it can be determined that the temperature of the drilling mud from the polar wellbore is too high and needs to be cooled. At this time, the controller can control the shut-off valve and the diverter pump to be in the open state, so that the drilling mud from the mud return module is transported to the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe through the diverter valve for cooling. At this time, the drilling mud flowing through the natural cooling pipe will undergo heat exchange with the outside world and cool down naturally, while the drilling mud flowing through the insulation pipe will be insulated. If it is determined that the first mud temperature is not greater than the maximum allowable temperature, it can be determined that the temperature of the drilling mud from the polar wellbore is not too high and no cooling treatment is required.

[0071] Specifically, the mud circulation module can collect the mud temperature within the mud circulation module, use this as the second mud temperature, and transmit it to the controller. The controller can calculate the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature and the desired temperature range and, based on this temperature deviation, control the speed of the diverter pump. This allows the diverter pump to deliver drilling mud from the diverter valve to the free cooling and insulation pipes, distributing the mud flow in these pipes. The drilling mud then flows from the free cooling and insulation pipes into the manifold valve for further transmission.

[0072] It should be noted that the controller can achieve the flow distribution of drilling mud in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe by controlling the rotational speed of the diverter pump, and thus achieve the control of the cooling range of the drilling mud in the system. Specifically, when the rotational speed of the diverter pump is relatively high, the flow rate of the drilling mud in the natural cooling pipe is relatively high, the flow rate of the drilling mud in the natural cooling pipe is relatively high, the heat exchange efficiency with the outside world is relatively high, the natural cooling rate is relatively high, and the cooling range of the drilling mud is relatively high. When the rotational speed of the diverter pump is relatively low, the flow rate of the drilling mud in the natural cooling pipe is relatively low, the flow rate of the drilling mud in the natural cooling pipe is relatively high, the heat exchange efficiency with the outside world is relatively low, the natural cooling rate is relatively low, and the cooling range of the drilling mud is relatively low.

[0073] Among them, this embodiment uses the polar low temperature environment and natural cooling pipes to cool the hot drilling mud, and accurately adjusts the fluid temperature by diversion. It can avoid the shortcomings of inaccurate temperature caused by fixed cooling of condensers in related technologies, as well as the shortcomings of energy consumption and emissions caused by cooling of refrigeration units in related technologies. It has the characteristics of design specifications, environmental protection, convenience and precise control, ensuring the environmentally friendly and safe development of polar drilling.

[0074] It is understandable that the diverter valve, diverter pump, natural cooling pipe, insulation pipe and collecting valve in this embodiment can constitute a cooling module. If a natural cooling pipe is set separately in the cooling module, since the passive cooling effect of the natural cooling pipe is relatively fixed, if all the drilling mud is cooled through the natural cooling pipe, the temperature reduction range may be too large and the temperature reduction control accuracy is low. Therefore, this embodiment can add another pipe to the cooling module to divert the drilling mud, so as to achieve cooling of only part of the drilling mud and increase the adjustable temperature range of the system. Specifically, this embodiment can transport the drilling mud to the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe through the diverter valve, cool the hot mud flowing through the natural cooling pipe, and keep the hot mud flowing through the insulation pipe warm. The flow rate ratio and volume ratio of insulation and cooling are adjusted according to the temperature feedback from the mud circulation module. Then, the insulation fluid and the cooling fluid are mixed after passing through the collecting valve to accurately reduce the temperature of the fluid, that is, accurately adjust the fluid temperature, and improve the accuracy of the drilling mud cooling control in the system.

[0075] Optionally, the mud return module includes: a mud cleaning module, a return pump and a first temperature sensor;

[0076] The input end of the diverter valve is connected to the mud output end of the polar wellbore through the return pump and the mud cleaning module in turn;

[0077] The first temperature sensor is arranged on a pipeline between the input end of the diverter valve and the reflux pump. The first temperature sensor is communicatively connected to the controller and is used to detect the first mud temperature and transmit the temperature to the controller.

[0078] Among them, the mud cleaning module can be used to clean the return mud in polar wellbores.

[0079] Specifically, in this embodiment, a target mud flow rate may be pre-set for the return pump, and the rotation speed of the return pump may be set based on the target mud flow rate to control the mud flow rate in the return pump to be maintained at the target mud flow rate.

[0080] The first temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of drilling mud returning from the polar wellbore.

[0081] Optionally, the mud circulation module includes: a second temperature sensor, a mud pool and a mud delivery module;

[0082] The output end of the collecting valve is connected to the mud input end of the polar wellbore through the mud pool and the mud delivery module in turn;

[0083] The second temperature sensor is arranged on the pipeline between the output end of the collecting valve and the mud pool, and is communicatively connected to the controller, and is used to detect the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and transmit it to the controller;

[0084] The controller is also used to control the speed of the diverter pump according to the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature and the desired temperature, so as to transport the drilling mud from the diverter valve to the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe, and distribute the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe to cool the drilling mud.

[0085] The mud pool can be used to store drilling mud and to perform corresponding pretreatment on the drilling mud to achieve recycling of the drilling mud.

[0086] The second temperature sensor may be used to detect the temperature of the drilling mud after being heated, cooled or kept warm.

[0087] The polar drilling mud temperature control system proposed in this embodiment includes a mud return module, a diverter valve, a shut-off valve, a diverter pump, a natural cooling pipe, an insulation pipe, a collecting valve, a mud circulation module and a controller. The input end of the diverter valve is connected to the mud output end of the polar wellbore through the mud return module, the first output end of the diverter valve is connected to the first input end of the collecting valve through the shut-off valve, the diverter pump and the natural cooling pipe in sequence, and the second output end of the diverter valve is connected to the second input end of the collecting valve through the insulation pipe. The output end of the collecting valve is connected to the mud input end of the polar wellbore through the mud circulation module. This embodiment can determine that the first mud temperature in the mud return module is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, and then control the speed of the diverter pump to distribute the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe, cool the drilling mud, improve the cooling accuracy of the drilling mud, and effectively achieve cooling of the drilling mud.

[0088] like Figure 2As shown, this embodiment proposes a second polar drilling mud temperature control system, which also includes: a first reversing valve, a heater and a second reversing valve.

[0089] The input end of the first reversing valve is connected to the output end of the mud return module, the first output end of the first reversing valve is connected to the first input end of the second reversing valve through the heater, and the second output end of the first reversing valve is connected to the input end of the diverter valve;

[0090] The second input end of the second reversing valve is connected to the output end of the collecting valve, and the output end of the second reversing valve is connected to the mud input end of the polar wellbore through the mud circulation module;

[0091] The heater is communicatively connected to the controller;

[0092] The controller is further configured to, if it is determined that the first mud temperature is lower than the minimum allowable temperature, transport all the drilling mud in the mud return module through the heater, and control the heater to heat the drilling mud flowing through.

[0093] like Figure 2 As shown, the wellbore refers to the polar wellbore. The mud return module may include a mud cleaning device, a pump 1, and a temperature sensor 1. The mud cleaning device, the pump 1, and the temperature sensor 1 may refer to the mud cleaning module, the return pump, and the first temperature sensor, respectively.

[0094] The electric gate valve, pump 2 and cooling pipeline may refer to the above-mentioned stop valve, diverter pump and natural cooling pipeline respectively.

[0095] The mud circulation module may include a temperature sensor 2, a mud pool and a mud delivery module. The temperature sensor 2 may refer to a second temperature sensor.

[0096] It should be noted that the variable universe fuzzy controller can refer to the above controller. Figure 1 The dotted line in the figure represents the controller and the direction of the arrow represents the flow direction of the drilling mud.

[0097] The electromagnetic reversing valve 1 and the electromagnetic reversing valve 2 refer to a first reversing valve and a second reversing valve, respectively. Specifically, the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve may be two-position three-way electromagnetic reversing valves.

[0098] Specifically, this embodiment can be Figure 1 Based on the system shown in the figure, a first reversing valve, a second reversing valve and a heater are added to construct a heating pipeline for heating the drilling mud. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, an electromagnetic reversing valve 1, a heater and an electromagnetic reversing valve 2 can be added to construct a heating pipe independent of the cooling pipe and the insulation pipe.

[0099] It is understandable that, compared to Figure 1 The system shown, Figure 2 The mud return module is no longer directly connected to diverter valve 1, but is instead connected to diverter valve 1 through solenoid reversing valve 1. Specifically, the output of the mud return module is connected to the input of solenoid reversing valve 1 (i.e., the first reversing valve). The first output of solenoid reversing valve 1 is connected to the first input of the second reversing valve via a heater, and the second output of solenoid reversing valve 1 is connected to the input of diverter valve 1. The collecting valve 1 is no longer directly connected to the mud circulation module, but is instead connected to the mud circulation module through solenoid reversing valve 2. Specifically, the output of collecting valve 1 is connected to the second input of solenoid reversing valve 2 (i.e., the second reversing valve). The output of the second reversing valve is connected to the mud input of the wellbore (i.e., the polar wellbore) through the mud circulation module.

[0100] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the second reversing valve and the first reversing valve are both two-position three-way electromagnetic reversing valves, the second reversing valve and the first reversing valve can be in the power-off state or in the power-on state at the same time.

[0101] Specifically, this embodiment can first determine whether to heat, cool or keep the drilling mud warm based on the first mud temperature detected by the first temperature sensor, and then heat, cool or keep the drilling mud warm by controlling the status of related equipment.

[0102] Specifically, this embodiment can control the shutoff valve and the diverter pump to be closed, and the first and second reversing valves to be energized, such that the first output end of the first reversing valve is open, the second output end of the first reversing valve is closed, the first input end of the second reversing valve is open, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is closed (the drilling mud flows sequentially from the polar wellbore, the mud return module, the first reversing valve, the heater, the second reversing valve, the mud circulation module, and finally to the polar wellbore). Furthermore, the heater is activated, and the power of the heater is controlled based on the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and the desired temperature, so that all the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the heater, thereby heating the drilling mud flowing through the heater. The minimum allowable temperature is lower than the desired temperature.

[0103] Specifically, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, the stop valve and the diverter pump are controlled to be in the open state, and the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve are controlled to be in the power-off state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in the closed state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in the open state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in the closed state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in the open state (the drilling mud flow direction at this time is from the polar wellbore, the mud return module, the first reversing valve, the diverter valve, the diverter pump, the natural cooling Cooling pipe, insulation pipe, collecting valve, second reversing valve, mud circulation module to polar wellbore), so that the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe. At the same time, the speed of the shunt pump can be controlled according to the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and the desired temperature, so that the shunt pump distributes the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe, insulates the drilling mud flowing through the insulation pipe, and cools the drilling mud flowing through the natural cooling pipe, thereby increasing the cooling range and improving the cooling accuracy.

[0104] Specifically, when it is determined that the first mud temperature is not less than the minimum allowable temperature and not greater than the maximum allowable temperature, this embodiment can control the shut-off valve and the diverter pump to be in a closed state, and control the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve to be in a power-off state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in a closed state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in an open state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in a closed state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in an open state (the drilling mud flows in the polar wellbore, the mud return module, the first reversing valve, the insulation pipe, the collecting valve, the second reversing valve, the mud circulation module to the polar wellbore in sequence), so that all the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the insulation pipe.

[0105] It should be noted that in order to avoid unnecessary activation of the heater, reduce energy consumption, and avoid overheating of the heater and potential safety hazards, this embodiment can also control the heater to be in an off state when it is determined that the first mud temperature is not lower than the minimum allowable temperature.

[0106] It can be understood that, compared with setting only a fixed temperature for determining whether to heat, cool or keep warm, this embodiment sets the minimum allowable temperature and the maximum allowable temperature, compares the size relationship between the first mud temperature and the minimum allowable temperature, or compares the size relationship between the first mud temperature and the maximum allowable temperature, and then determines whether to heat, cool or keep warm, which can avoid frequent opening or closing of the heater and reduce the risk of heater failure.

[0107] The polar drilling mud temperature control system proposed in this embodiment can compare the first mud temperature with the minimum allowable temperature, or the first mud temperature with the maximum allowable temperature, and then determine whether to heat, cool, or insulate the mud. This effectively controls the temperature of the drilling mud, improves the accuracy of mud temperature control, and ensures that the drilling mud temperature remains within a reasonable range. This embodiment can perform temperature control on the drilling mud after it is returned to the wellbore to ensure that the drilling mud remains within the appropriate operating temperature range when it is re-injected into the polar wellbore, ensuring the safe conduct of drilling operations and achieving precise, rapid, and convenient drilling fluid temperature control.

[0108] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment proposes a third polar drilling mud temperature control system, which also includes: a safety discharge module;

[0109] The safety discharge module is connected to the output end of the mud return module and the mud pool in the mud circulation module respectively, and is used to discharge the drilling mud in the mud return module into the mud pool when the pressure of the drilling mud in the mud return module is greater than the preset pressure threshold.

[0110] Specifically, the safety discharge module may be a discharge circuit composed of a relief valve and an electromagnetic reversing valve, and is used to protect internal components of the hydraulic system.

[0111] The polar drilling mud temperature control system proposed in this embodiment can utilize a safety discharge module designed with an overflow valve. When the heater is damaged or the pipeline is blocked, and the hydraulic system pressure is too high, the drilling mud enters the mud pool through the overflow valve and an alarm is issued, which can avoid damage to the drilling mud circulation system equipment and enhance system safety.

[0112] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment proposes a first polar drilling mud temperature control method, which is applied to Figure 1 The system shown in FIG. 1 includes a controller in which a mud return module, a shutoff valve, a diversion pump, and a mud circulation module are communicatively connected. The method may include the following steps:

[0113] S301: The controller obtains a first mud temperature in a mud return module.

[0114] S302: If the controller determines that the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, the controller controls the shut-off valve and the diversion pump to be in an open state, so that the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe.

[0115] S303: The controller determines a temperature deviation between the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and a desired temperature; wherein the desired temperature is greater than a minimum allowable temperature and less than a maximum allowable temperature.

[0116] The expected temperature is the mud temperature expected to be obtained after heating, cooling or keeping the drilling mud warm.

[0117] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, it is desired to control the temperature of the mud in the mud circulation module to be near a desired temperature.

[0118] Specifically, the expected temperature can be obtained according to the minimum allowable temperature and the maximum allowable temperature. For example, the expected temperature can be set to the average of the minimum allowable temperature and the maximum allowable temperature.

[0119] S304. The controller controls the rotation speed of the shunt pump according to the temperature deviation so that the shunt pump distributes the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe, insulates the drilling mud in the insulation pipe, and cools the drilling mud in the natural cooling pipe.

[0122] The second input end of the second reversing valve is connected to the output end of the collecting valve, and the output end of the second reversing valve is connected to the mud input end of the polar wellbore through the mud circulation module.

[0123] Optionally, after the controller obtains the first mud temperature in the mud return module, the method further includes:

[0124] The controller determines that the first mud temperature is less than the minimum allowable temperature, controls the shut-off valve and the diverter pump to be in a closed state, controls the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve to be in an energized state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in an open state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in a closed state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in an open state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in a closed state, and starts the heater, and controls the power of the heater according to the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and the desired temperature, so that all the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the heater, and the drilling mud flowing through the heater is heated;

[0125] The lowest allowable temperature is lower than the desired temperature.

[0126] Optionally, the control shut-off valve and the diversion pump are in an open state so that the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe, including:

[0127] The controller controls the shut-off valve and the diverter pump to be in the open state, and controls the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve to be in the power-off state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in the closed state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in the open state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in the closed state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in the open state, so that the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe.

[0128] Optionally, after the controller obtains the first mud temperature in the mud return module, the method further includes:

[0129] When the controller determines that the first mud temperature is not less than the minimum allowable temperature and not greater than the maximum allowable temperature, the controller controls the shut-off valve and the diverter pump to be in a closed state, and controls the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve to be in a power-off state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in a closed state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in an open state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in a closed state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in an open state, so that all the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the insulated pipe.

[0130] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the second reversing valve and the first reversing valve are both two-position three-way electromagnetic reversing valves, the second reversing valve and the first reversing valve can be in the power-off state or in the power-on state at the same time.

[0131] Specifically, this embodiment can first determine whether to heat, cool or keep the drilling mud warm based on the first mud temperature detected by the first temperature sensor, and then heat, cool or keep the drilling mud warm by controlling the status of related equipment.

[0132] Specifically, this embodiment can control the shutoff valve and the diverter pump to be closed, and the first and second reversing valves to be energized, such that the first output end of the first reversing valve is open, the second output end of the first reversing valve is closed, the first input end of the second reversing valve is open, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is closed (the drilling mud flows sequentially from the polar wellbore, the mud return module, the first reversing valve, the heater, the second reversing valve, the mud circulation module, and finally to the polar wellbore). Furthermore, the heater is activated, and the power of the heater is controlled based on the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and the desired temperature, so that all the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the heater, thereby heating the drilling mud flowing through the heater. The minimum allowable temperature is lower than the desired temperature.

[0133] Specifically, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, the stop valve and the diverter pump are controlled to be in the open state, and the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve are controlled to be in the power-off state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in the closed state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in the open state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in the closed state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in the open state (the drilling mud flow direction at this time is from the polar wellbore, the mud return module, the first reversing valve, the diverter valve, the diverter pump, the natural cooling Cooling pipe, insulation pipe, collecting valve, second reversing valve, mud circulation module to polar wellbore), so that the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe. At the same time, the speed of the shunt pump can be controlled according to the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature in the mud circulation module and the desired temperature, so that the shunt pump distributes the mud flow in the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe, insulates the drilling mud flowing through the insulation pipe, and cools the drilling mud flowing through the natural cooling pipe, thereby increasing the cooling range and improving the cooling accuracy.

[0134] Specifically, when it is determined that the first mud temperature is not less than the minimum allowable temperature and not greater than the maximum allowable temperature, this embodiment can control the shut-off valve and the diverter pump to be in a closed state, and control the first reversing valve and the second reversing valve to be in a power-off state, so that the first output end of the first reversing valve is in a closed state, the second output end of the first reversing valve is in an open state, the first input end of the second reversing valve is in a closed state, and the second input end of the second reversing valve is in an open state (the drilling mud flows in the polar wellbore, the mud return module, the first reversing valve, the insulation pipe, the collecting valve, the second reversing valve, the mud circulation module to the polar wellbore in sequence), so that all the drilling mud in the mud return module is transported through the insulation pipe.

[0135] It should be noted that in order to avoid unnecessary activation of the heater, reduce energy consumption, and avoid overheating of the heater and potential safety hazards, this embodiment can also control the heater to be in an off state when it is determined that the first mud temperature is not lower than the minimum allowable temperature.

[0136] It can be understood that, compared with setting only a fixed temperature for determining whether to heat, cool or keep warm, this embodiment sets the minimum allowable temperature and the maximum allowable temperature, compares the size relationship between the first mud temperature and the minimum allowable temperature, or compares the size relationship between the first mud temperature and the maximum allowable temperature, and then determines whether to heat, cool or keep warm, which can avoid frequent opening or closing of the heater and reduce the risk of heater failure.

[0137] It should also be noted that this embodiment can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0138] Energy saving and environmental protection: This embodiment is designed to use the polar low temperature environment and natural cooling pipes to naturally cool the drilling mud. Compared with the use of refrigeration units for cooling in related technologies, it avoids the refrigeration unit's emissions to the polar environment and reduces energy consumption, thereby achieving energy saving and environmental protection in polar drilling.

[0139] High temperature control accuracy: The cooling module of this embodiment establishes temperature control rules for high-temperature drilling fluid based on fuzzy control. There is no need to establish an accurate mathematical model of the controlled object. It has strong applicability and can quickly and accurately control the fluid temperature based on fuzzy control and feedback regulation.

[0140] High safety level: This embodiment can also utilize a safety discharge module designed with an overflow valve. When the heater is damaged or the pipeline is blocked, the system pressure is too high. The drilling mud is controlled to enter the mud pool through the overflow valve and an alarm is issued to avoid damage to the drilling fluid circulation system equipment.

[0141] High degree of automation: This embodiment can use an embedded microcontroller and a variable universe fuzzy control method to control the electromagnetic reversing valve, pump, and heater, thereby realizing the automation of drilling fluid temperature control.

[0142] The polar drilling mud temperature control method proposed in this embodiment can compare the first mud temperature with the minimum allowable temperature, or the first mud temperature with the maximum allowable temperature, and then determine whether to heat, cool, or insulate the mud. This effectively controls the temperature of the drilling mud, improves the accuracy of mud temperature control, and ensures that the drilling mud temperature remains within a reasonable range. This embodiment can perform temperature control on the drilling mud after it is returned to the wellbore to ensure that the drilling mud remains within the appropriate operating temperature range when it is re-injected into the polar wellbore, ensuring the safe conduct of drilling operations and achieving precise, rapid, and convenient drilling fluid temperature control.

[0143] based on Figure 2 The system shown, such as Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a second polar drilling mud temperature control method. In this method, this embodiment can first determine the rotation speed of pump 1, that is, the rotation speed of the return pump (the flow rate that needs to be temperature controlled), that is, determine the mud flow rate in the return pump.

[0144] This embodiment can determine whether the first mud temperature, or the first mud temperature, fed back by temperature sensor 1, is greater than an expected temperature (the expected temperature here includes both the maximum and minimum allowable temperatures). If so, i.e., if the first mud temperature is greater than the maximum allowable temperature, electromagnetic reversing valves 1 and 2 can be closed, and pump 2 can be activated to divert flow, thereby cooling the cooling module. In this embodiment, the controller can detect the output fluid temperature, or the second mud temperature, from temperature sensor 2. Based on the second mud temperature, the controller controls fluid output, specifically, adjusts the speed of pump 2, to distribute the mud flow between the natural cooling pipe and the insulation pipe.

[0145] If the determination result of whether the first mud temperature is greater than the expected temperature is negative, i.e., if the first mud temperature is lower than the minimum allowable temperature, electromagnetic reversing valves 1 and 2 can be opened, and the electric heating device, i.e., the heater, can be activated to heat the drilling mud. In this embodiment, the controller can control the fluid output and adjust the power of the electric heating device based on the second mud temperature detected by temperature sensor 2, i.e., the second mud temperature.

[0146] The polar drilling mud temperature control method proposed in this embodiment can achieve heating, cooling or heat preservation of polar drilling mud, thereby improving the accuracy of drilling mud temperature control.

[0147] based on Figure 3 ,This embodiment proposes a third polar drilling mud temperature control method, in which the controller can be a variable universe fuzzy controller.

[0149] The controller determines a temperature deviation change rate corresponding to the temperature deviation;

[0150] The controller searches for the corresponding target speed in a preset variable universe fuzzy control rule table according to the determined temperature deviation and temperature deviation change rate;

[0151] The controller generates a speed control signal according to the target speed and sends the signal to the shunt pump to adjust the speed of the shunt pump to the target speed.

[0152] Specifically, the controller can first determine the temperature deviation e and the rate of change of deviation ec=de / dt , according to the temperature deviation e and the rate of change of deviation ec , through the variable universe fuzzy control rule table of the diverter pump speed, the corresponding diverter pump speed is obtained n , the controlled quantity is the distribution flow of the natural cooling pipe Q 1, thereby accurately controlling the temperature drop of the fluid in the pipeline.

[0153] In this embodiment, the temperature deviation e and the rate of change of deviation ec It is processed as the input in the variable universe fuzzy control to generate the corresponding output signal, thus completing the domain range transformation of the input and output in the variable universe fuzzy control.

[0154] It should be noted that the controller is a key component for handling the flow distribution of the cooling module, which determines the speed and accuracy of the temperature adjustment of the system in the cooling mode.

[0155] like Figure 5 The variable domain fuzzy control process diagram shown in FIG. 1 shows that in this embodiment, the feedback signal of the second temperature sensor and the input signal are calculated to perform a difference calculation, that is, to calculate the temperature deviation between the second mud temperature and the desired temperature. e and the rate of change of deviation ec In this embodiment, the temperature deviation e and the rate of change of deviation ec The input is sent to the variable universe fuzzy controller, which then passes through the proportional amplifier, motor-pump flow control module and temperature regulation module set in the controller to determine the speed of the controlled object, that is, the shunt pump. n and control the speed of the diverter pump to n .

[0156] The polar drilling mud temperature control method proposed in this embodiment can control the rotation speed of the diversion pump through variable universe fuzzy control, thereby improving the accuracy of the temperature reduction control of the drilling mud.

[0157] like Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a controller that can be applied to the above system. The controller is communicatively connected to the mud return module, the shut-off valve, the diversion pump and the mud circulation module.
