[0057] like Figures 1-10 As shown, the present invention provides a method for accurately adjusting the alignment of a derrick and a well center, comprising the following steps:
[0058] S1: Assemble the drilling floor 10 and the derrick 20 and measure the coordinates X0Y0 of the drilling floor wellhead center 11 and the coordinates X1Y1 of the derrick well center 21, and calculate the lateral deviation A and the longitudinal deviation B of the derrick well center 21 based on the coordinates X0Y0 and X1Y1;
[0059] S2: Arranging a tensioning device at the support leg of the derrick 20, and connecting the support leg to the drilling platform 10 by using the tensioning device;
[0060] S3: In the transverse direction, a first lifting device is provided at the eccentric proximal end of the derrick 20 to lift the eccentric proximal end support leg 23 of the derrick and monitor the coordinates of the derrick well center 21 and the drilling platform wellhead center 11 in real time until the transverse deviation A is zero;
[0061] S4: Along the longitudinal direction, a second lifting device is provided at the eccentric proximal end of the derrick 20 to lift the longitudinal derrick eccentric proximal end support leg 212 and monitor the coordinates of the derrick well center 21 and the drilling platform wellhead center 11 in real time until the longitudinal deviation B is zero;
[0062] S5: After the horizontal and vertical tilt adjustments of the derrick well center 21 are completed, suitable adjustment shims are selected to support the horizontal derrick eccentric proximal support leg 23 and the vertical derrick eccentric proximal support leg 212, and the drilling floor 10 and the derrick 20 are locked;
[0063] S6: Remove the tensioning device, the first lifting device and the second lifting device.
[0064] The purpose of this embodiment is to use simple means to achieve adjustment and alignment of the derrick well center 21 and the drilling platform wellhead center 11 (alignment refers to being located on the same straight line in the vertical direction), calculate the lateral deviation A and longitudinal deviation B of the derrick well center 21 according to the coordinates X0Y0 and X1Y1, determine the adjustment gap between the derrick and the base that needs to be adjusted, and use a tensioning device to fix the derrick 20 to prevent the derrick well center 21 from tipping over during the adjustment process. The derrick 20 is lifted by the first lifting device to achieve lateral adjustment of the derrick well center 21, and the derrick 20 is lifted by the second lifting device to achieve longitudinal adjustment of the derrick well center 21. After the adjustment is completed, the tensioning device, the first lifting device and the second lifting device are removed. This method does not require the cooperation of a large crane, is simple to operate, safe to operate, and economical and applicable. In addition, the adjustment method of the present invention can ensure the installation accuracy of the derrick 20, thereby ensuring the installation accuracy of drilling and production equipment such as the top drive and top drive guide rails, finger beams, traveling yokes, and pipe racks, so that the drilling and production equipment can operate smoothly and normally.
[0065] In some embodiments, the distance between the horizontal plane where the derrick well center 21 is located and the horizontal plane where the drilling floor 10 is located is 30-60 m.
[0066] In some embodiments, taking the horizontal coordinate as X and the vertical coordinate as Y as an example, the horizontal deviation A = |X1-X0|, and the vertical deviation B = |Y1-Y0|. During the adjustment process, the derrick 20 is lifted horizontally and vertically so that A = 0 and B = 0, thereby achieving the alignment of the drilling platform wellhead center 11 and the derrick well center 21.
[0067] In another embodiment, the values of the lateral deviation A and the longitudinal deviation B may be within a set center alignment deviation range.
[0068] For example, in step S1, the steps of assembling the drilling floor 10 and the derrick 20, measuring the coordinates X0Y0 of the drilling floor wellhead center 11 and the coordinates X1Y1 of the derrick well center 21, and calculating the lateral deviation A and the longitudinal deviation B of the derrick well center 21 according to the coordinates X0Y0 and X1Y1 include:
[0069] S11: Arrange four derrick bases 12 on the drilling platform 10, and connect four legs of the derrick 20 to the derrick bases 12 through fasteners;
[0070] S12: Based on the lateral deviation A and the longitudinal deviation B, the four legs of the derrick 20 are divided into a lateral derrick eccentric distal leg 22, a lateral derrick eccentric proximal leg 23, a longitudinal derrick eccentric distal leg 211 and a longitudinal derrick eccentric proximal leg 212, and are connected to the corresponding derrick bases 12 respectively.
[0071] For example, to prevent the derrick 20 from tipping over when adjusting the derrick well center 21, in step S2, the steps of arranging a tensioning device at the support legs of the derrick 20 and connecting the support legs to the drilling floor 10 using the tensioning device include:
[0072] S21: Arrange fixed fulcrums 24 on the supporting legs, arrange pull weights 13 on the drilling floor 10, and each supporting leg is provided with pull weights on opposite sides in the transverse and longitudinal directions, and connect a steel wire rope 25 between the fixed fulcrums 24 and the pull weights 13;
[0073] S22: Install a basket tensioner 26 on the steel wire rope 25.
[0074] In this way, even if the fasteners between the legs and the derrick base 12 are loosened, the derrick 20 will not fall over, thereby ensuring the safety of construction.
[0075] For example, in step S3, the step of disposing a first lifting device at the eccentric proximal end of the derrick 20 in the lateral direction, lifting the eccentric proximal end support leg 23 of the derrick and monitoring the coordinates of the derrick well center 21 and the drilling platform wellhead center 11 in real time until the lateral deviation A is zero includes:
[0076] S31: a first retainer plate 28 is provided on the eccentric proximal end support leg 23 of the transverse derrick, and the eccentric proximal end support leg 23 of the transverse derrick and the first retainer plate 28 are locked by a first connecting member 27 so that the first retainer plate 28 is parallel to the drilling floor 10;
[0077] S32: Installing a first jacking mechanism 29 on the drilling platform 10 and connecting an output end of the first jacking mechanism 29 to a first code plate 28;
[0078] S33: Remove the second fastener 15 between the eccentric proximal support leg 23 of the transverse derrick and the transverse proximal base 122, loosen the first fastener 14 between the eccentric distal support leg 22 of the transverse derrick and the transverse distal base 121, and the first jacking mechanism 29 lifts the first yard plate 28 to move upward to lift the eccentric proximal support leg 23 of the transverse derrick;
[0079] S34: Adjust the turnbuckle 26 and monitor the coordinates X0Y0 of the drilling platform wellhead center 11 and the coordinates X1Y1 of the derrick well center 21 in real time until the lateral deviation A is reduced to zero and the first lifting mechanism 29 stops moving.
[0080] In this way, the first lifting mechanism 29 pushes the eccentric proximal leg 23 of the horizontal derrick to lift through the first yard plate 28, so that the derrick well center 21 moves laterally toward the vertical line where the drilling platform wellhead center 11 is located, so that the lateral deviation A gradually decreases and becomes zero. By adjusting the basket tensioner 26, it can be operated quickly to improve the efficiency and accuracy of lateral alignment. Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown.
[0081] For example, in step S4, the step of disposing a second lifting device at the eccentric proximal end of the derrick 20 along the longitudinal direction, lifting the eccentric proximal end support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick and monitoring the coordinates of the derrick well center 21 and the drilling platform wellhead center 11 in real time until the longitudinal deviation B is zero includes:
[0082] S41: Setting a second stopper plate 214 on the eccentric proximal end support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick, and locking the eccentric proximal end support leg 212 and the second stopper plate 214 through a second connecting member 213 so that the second stopper plate 214 is parallel to the drilling floor 10;
[0083] S42: Install a second lifting mechanism 215 on the drilling platform 10, and connect the output end of the second lifting mechanism 215 to the second code plate 214;
[0084] S43: Remove the fourth fastener 17 between the eccentric proximal support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick and the longitudinal proximal base 124, loosen the third fastener 16 between the eccentric distal support leg 211 of the longitudinal derrick and the longitudinal distal base 123, and the second jacking mechanism 215 lifts the second yard plate 214 to move upward to lift the eccentric proximal support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick;
[0085] S44: Adjust the turnbuckle 26 and monitor the coordinates X0Y0 of the drilling platform wellhead center 11 and the coordinates X1Y1 of the derrick well center 21 in real time until the longitudinal deviation B is reduced to zero and the second lifting mechanism 215 stops moving.
[0086] In this way, the second lifting mechanism 215 pushes the eccentric proximal support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick to rise through the second yard plate 214, so that the derrick well center 21 moves longitudinally toward the vertical line where the wellhead center 11 of the drilling platform is located, so that the longitudinal deviation B gradually decreases and becomes zero. By adjusting the basket tensioner 26, it can be operated quickly to improve the longitudinal alignment efficiency and accuracy. Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown.
[0087] In some embodiments, the first jacking mechanism 29 and the second jacking mechanism 215 are both jacks, and during the jacking process, there are at least two first jacking mechanisms 29 to ensure the balance and stability of the first code plate 28. Similarly, there are at least two second jacking mechanisms 215 to ensure the balance and stability of the second code plate 214.
[0088] For example, before the first jacking mechanism 29 and the second jacking mechanism 215 are jacked, preliminary values of the eccentric proximal end support 23 of the horizontal derrick and the eccentric proximal end support 212 of the longitudinal derrick required to be raised are calculated in advance through three-dimensional model simulation, and the jacking amounts of the first jacking mechanism 29 and the second jacking mechanism 215 are determined based on the preliminary values to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the adjustment.
[0089] For example, in step S5, after the lateral and longitudinal tilt adjustments of the derrick well center 21 are completed, the steps of selecting suitable adjustment shims to support the lateral derrick eccentric proximal support legs 23 and the longitudinal derrick eccentric proximal support legs 212, and locking the drilling floor 10 and the derrick 20 include:
[0090] S51: When the lateral deviation A is reduced to zero, the first lifting mechanism 29 stops moving, and the gap between the eccentric proximal support leg 23 of the transverse derrick and the transverse proximal base 122 is measured. A first adjusting gasket 210 of appropriate thickness is selected and placed between the eccentric proximal support leg 23 of the transverse derrick and the transverse proximal base 122;
[0091] S52: When the lateral deviation B is reduced to zero, the second lifting mechanism 215 stops moving, and the gap between the eccentric proximal support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick and the longitudinal proximal base 124 is measured. A second adjusting gasket 216 of appropriate thickness is selected and placed between the eccentric proximal support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick and the longitudinal proximal base 124;
[0092] S53: After adding the adjustment gasket, use the first fastener 14 to lock the eccentric distal support leg 22 of the transverse derrick and the transverse distal base 121, use the second fastener 15 to lock the eccentric proximal support leg 23 of the transverse derrick, the first adjustment gasket 210 and the transverse proximal base 122, use the third fastener 16 to lock the eccentric distal support leg 211 of the longitudinal derrick and the longitudinal distal base 123, and use the fourth fastener 17 to lock the eccentric proximal support leg 212 of the longitudinal derrick, the second adjustment gasket 216 and the longitudinal proximal base 124.
[0093] Therefore, after the derrick 20 is lifted horizontally and vertically, the lifting gap needs to be filled with adjusting gaskets to ensure the balance and stability of the connection between the derrick 20 and the drilling floor 10 after the tensioning device, the first lifting device and the second lifting device are removed.
[0094] Exemplarily, in step S6, the step of removing the tensioning device, the first lifting device, and the second lifting device includes:
[0095] S61: Remove the pull code 13, the steel wire rope 25, the flower basket tensioner 26, the first code plate 28, the first lifting mechanism 29, the second code plate 214 and the second lifting mechanism 215.
[0096] In some embodiments, the removed portion needs to be polished to avoid cutting equipment, instruments, or personnel.
[0097] In summary, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for precise adjustment of the derrick well center, which calculates the lateral deviation A and longitudinal deviation B of the derrick well center 21 according to the coordinates X0Y0 and X1Y1, determines that the adjustment gap between the derrick and the base needs to be adjusted, and uses a tensioning device to fix the derrick 20 to prevent the derrick well center 21 from tipping over during the adjustment process. The derrick 20 is lifted by a first lifting device to achieve lateral adjustment of the derrick well center 21, and the derrick 20 is lifted by a second lifting device to achieve longitudinal adjustment of the derrick well center 21. After the adjustment is completed, the tensioning device, the first lifting device and the second lifting device are removed. Therefore, there is no need for a large crane, and the operation is simple, safe, and economical.
