Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of measurement while drilling, in particular to a magnetic guidance transmitting antenna while drilling. BACKGROUND
[0002] The magnetic guidance measurement technology is developed on the basis of the traditional logging technology. The technology drills a new well near an old well, measures the positional relationship between the new well and the old well through magnetic induction, adjusts the drilling trajectory of the new well, and finally realizes the approach of the new well to the old well until the two wells are connected. In the specific construction process, the new well is first drilled in the direction of the old well. When the drilling position is close to the old well, the drilling tool is taken out from the new well, and the magnetic guidance measurement tool carried by the cable is lowered. When the tool reaches the bottom of the well, the ground power is started, and the current transmitted by the cable is used to excite discharge. The discharge current propagates in the stratum and is conducted to the casing of the old well. The current in the casing induces a magnetic field in the stratum. The detection sub of the magnetic guidance measurement tool can detect and analyze the magnetic field to calculate the distance and direction between the new well and the casing of the old well, and judge the positional relationship between the two wells. After the positional relationship between the two wells is determined, the magnetic guidance measurement tool is taken out from the wellbore, and the drilling tool is lowered again to drill in the predetermined direction. The above process is repeated until the two wells are connected, and the old well is reused.
[0003] Since the magnetic guidance measurement tool is lowered into the bottom of the new well by the cable, the current excited by the ground is transmitted to the stratum through the cable, and the induced current in the loop of the cable is used to judge the positional relationship between the new well and the old well. The setting of the cable causes the drilling tool to be unable to set the drill string, and the cable has small hardness and is unable to apply pressure to the drill bit through the cable, so that the magnetic guidance measurement tool of this kind only has the measurement function and does not have the drilling capacity. Therefore, after the measurement is completed, the drilling tool needs to be taken out of the wellbore and replaced with the drilling tool for drilling. After drilling for a distance, the drilling tool is taken out and replaced with the magnetic guidance measurement tool for measurement. The above process is repeated, which seriously affects the operation efficiency and increases the drilling cost. SUMMARY

[0062] Specifically, the isolation short 104 is installed between the transmitting electrode 102 and the receiving electrode 103, and the isolation short 104 can be used to adjust the distance between the transmitting electrode 102 and the receiving electrode 103, so that the transmitting antenna of the magnetic navigation while drilling can obtain better transmitting and receiving effects. In order to realize the transmission of the transmitting alternating current S1 from the transmitting electrode 102 to the receiving electrode 103 in space, instead of diffusing along the metal short between the transmitting electrode 102 and the receiving electrode 103, a non-metal insulating layer 110 is arranged on the outer surface of the isolation short 104, and the isolation short 104 constitutes an isolation current. The adjusting sheath 108 is arranged inside the isolation short 104, and when the length of the isolation short 104 changes, the adjusting sheath 108 can adjust the overall length of the compensation instrument, and the length of the adjusting sheath 108 also changes correspondingly, so that the transmitting elastic conductor 107 and the transmitting electrode 102 are correspondingly connected, and the receiving elastic conductor 109 and the receiving electrode 103 are correspondingly connected.
