[0002] As oil extraction progresses into the mid-to-late stages of oilfield development, wells frequently experience damage during production, severely impacting normal oil extraction operations. Therefore, researching and promoting new and effective well workover techniques is urgently needed. Expandable tubing technology has played a role in addressing this challenge. Currently, expandable tubing has been successfully applied offshore, saving significant amounts of raw materials. Using expandable tubing for well completion can substantially increase oil well production and reduce drilling and completion costs.
[0003] To reduce the operational pressure of expansion tubes and enhance lubrication between their inner walls and expansion tools, a coating layer is often added to the inner wall of the expansion tube. In the existing technology, the main raw material of this coating is resin. To prevent the coating from tearing locally or cracking in a fish-scale pattern during the expansion process, which would affect the use of the expansion tube, technicians often choose to add a variety of lubricating materials to the coating raw materials. However, the effect is limited. Summary of the Invention

[0047] In some embodiments of this application, heating the particulate mixture A includes:
[0048] Heat the particulate mixture A to 200-280℃.
[0049] Thirdly, this application discloses the application of a spraying agent for the inner wall of an expansion tube in oil drilling, wherein the inner wall of the expansion tube is sprayed with the above-mentioned spraying agent.
