An automatic drag-reducing control system for drilling

Abstract

This invention relates to the field of oil drilling technology, and more particularly to an automatic torsional drag reduction control system for drilling. It includes a main control module connected to a top drive PLC controller via a signal input module, an enable signal receiving module, a forward / reverse control module, a parameter control module, and a cable. When the main control module receives the top drive control signal and the enable signal, it controls the top drive PLC controller to rotate the top drive forward or reverse according to a set forward / reverse frequency via the forward / reverse control module. Alternatively, the main control module sends the set top drive speed and torque to the top drive PLC controller via the parameter control module, causing the top drive PLC controller to control the top drive to rotate according to the set speed and torque. This addresses the problems in existing automatic top drive control systems, where communication systems cannot directly connect to unconnected top drive systems, resulting in limited versatility. Furthermore, existing systems require electrical interconnection with the top drive system, leading to mutual interference and potential electrical faults.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil drilling technology, and in particular to an automatic torsional drag reduction control system for drilling. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the large-scale development of unconventional oil and gas wells both domestically and internationally, long horizontal wells, extended reach wells, and complex directional wells are being constructed in large numbers. Problems such as high frictional torque, severe drill string pressure buildup, and difficulties in sliding guidance are becoming increasingly prominent during drilling. To address these issues, various companies both domestically and internationally have developed their own torsional oscillation drag reduction systems. In sliding drilling mode, the top drive oscillates the drill string back and forth within a safe torque range, causing the upper drill string to reciprocate circumferentially or tangentially. This significantly reduces downhole drill string friction, improves pressure transmission, enhances the stability and accuracy of azimuth control, increases sliding drilling efficiency and speed, and extends the horizontal section length of horizontal wells. Normally, the top drive is controlled by the driller using knobs on the driller's control panel to perform operations such as forward and reverse rotation, torque limit settings, and speed input. However, when torsional oscillation operations are required, such frequent and precise manual operation is impossible. Therefore, an automatic control system is needed for torsional oscillation control.

[0003] However, the existing automatic control system has the disadvantage of poor versatility. Different brands and models of top drives cannot be connected and controlled by communication systems due to the confidentiality of their control programs. Communication system control can only be used in top drive systems with open programs. In addition, since the external control system needs to be electrically interconnected with the top drive system, there is mutual interference between the two systems, which makes the transmitted signals unstable and inaccurate, and may even cause electrical faults and damage to electrical components. If the encoder of the top drive used in the field is damaged, it cannot be used according to closed-loop control. Summary of the Invention

Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention can be practiced without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, elements, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the spirit of the invention.

[0022] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the equipment connection for an automatic torsional drag reduction control system for drilling, according to an embodiment of the present invention, is shown. Figure 1As shown, an automatic torsional drag reduction control system for drilling includes: a main control module; the main control module is connected to a top drive PLC controller via a signal input module, an enable signal receiving module, a forward / reverse control module, a parameter control module, and a cable; when the main control module receives a top drive control signal input by the signal input module, it determines whether it has received an enable signal from the top drive PLC controller through the enable signal receiving module. If so, the main control module controls the top drive PLC controller to rotate forward or reverse according to a set forward / reverse frequency, and / or, the main control module sends a set top drive speed and torque to the top drive PLC controller through the parameter control module, so that the top drive PLC controller controls the top drive to rotate according to the set speed and torque.

[0023] In this invention, the signal input module includes an HMI touch control screen.

[0024] In this embodiment of the invention, the main control module is connected to the signal input module, the enable signal receiving module, the forward / reverse control module, and the parameter control module via cables. The signal input module, i.e., the HMI touch control screen, is located on the front panel of the torsion control system box that controls the top drive. The signal input module, the enable signal receiving module, the forward / reverse control module, and the parameter control module are each connected to the top drive PLC controller via cables. When automatic control of the top drive rotation is required, preset parameters for controlling the top drive rotation, i.e., top drive control signals, such as the given top drive speed, torque, frequency, number of cycles, or time, are input into the signal input module. The signal input module then transmits the input top drive control signals to the main control module.

[0025] When the main control module receives the top drive control signal, the control enable signal receiving module starts, receives the enable signal from the top drive PLC controller, and transmits it to the main control module. When the main control module determines that it has received the enable signal, it indicates that the top drive PLC controller is in normal operating condition and can control the top drive. Then, the main control module sends a forward or reverse control signal to the top drive PLC controller at a preset frequency through the forward or reverse control module. The top drive PLC controller controls the top drive motor to rotate forward or reverse at the preset frequency according to the received forward or reverse signal. At the same time, the main control module sends a preset speed and torque signal to the top drive PLC controller through the parameter control module. After receiving the control signal, the top drive PLC controller controls the top drive to rotate at the preset speed and torque.

[0026] In this invention, the enable signal receiving module includes: a first single-channel solid-state relay and a digital input module; the first single-channel solid-state relay is connected to the enable signal output port of the digital input module and the top drive PLC controller respectively; the digital input module is connected to the main control module.

[0027] In this embodiment of the invention, when the main control module receives the top drive control signal input via the touch control screen, it activates the digital input module DI of the enable signal receiving module. The enable signal output port of the top drive PLC controller outputs the enable signal of the top drive inverter. The enable signal of the top drive inverter controls the first single-channel solid-state relay K1 to close, allowing the digital input module DI to receive the input enable signal through K1. This is a circuit optimization design to avoid power exchange between the top drive enable signal and the system signal. The enable signal is converted into a digital signal recognizable by the main control module DI and then transmitted to the main control module. After receiving the enable signal, the main control module controls the top drive to perform forward and reverse operations through the forward / reverse control module and the parameter control module.

[0028] In this invention, the forward and reverse control module includes: a second single-channel solid-state relay, a third single-channel solid-state relay, and a digital output module; the second single-channel solid-state relay is connected to the forward control signal input port of the top drive PLC controller, and the third single-channel solid-state relay is connected to the reverse control signal input port of the top drive PLC controller; the digital output module is connected to the second single-channel solid-state relay, the third single-channel solid-state relay, and the main control module respectively.

[0029] In this embodiment of the invention, when the main control module determines that it has received an enable signal from the top drive PLC controller, the main control module controls the digital output module DO to start. When it is necessary to control the top drive to rotate forward, the main control module controls the second single-channel solid-state relay K2 to close its contact and the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 to open its contact. The main control module outputs the digital signal (forward rotation signal) controlling the top drive to rotate forward through the digital output module DO. The signal output by the digital output module DO controls the second single-channel solid-state relay K2 to close. The second single-channel solid-state relay K2 is turned on so that the top drive PLC controller receives the output from the main control module. The forward rotation signal causes the top drive PLC controller to start the top drive and rotate it forward. When it is necessary to control the top drive to rotate in reverse, the main control module controls the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 to close its contact and the second single-channel solid-state relay K2 to open its contact. The main control module sends the digital signal (reverse signal) controlling the top drive to rotate in reverse through the digital output module DO. The signal output by the digital output module DO controls the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 to close. The closing of the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 causes the top drive PLC controller to receive the reverse signal output by the main control module, causing the top drive PLC controller to start the top drive and rotate in reverse. The closing of contacts K2 and K3 is controlled by DO, and the main control module is not directly connected to the top drive PLC, thus ensuring electrical safety.

[0030] The main control module alternately controls the second single-channel solid-state relay K2 or the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 to close or open its contacts according to a preset frequency, and outputs forward and reverse control signals through the digital output module DO, thereby controlling the top drive to perform forward and reverse operations at a preset frequency.

[0031] In this invention, the parameter control module includes: a first dual-channel solid-state relay, a second dual-channel solid-state relay, and an analog output module; the first dual-channel solid-state relay is connected to the speed input port of the top drive PLC controller, and the second dual-channel solid-state relay is connected to the torque input port of the top drive PLC controller; the analog output module is connected to the first dual-channel solid-state relay, the second dual-channel solid-state relay, and the main control module respectively.

[0032] In this embodiment of the invention, when the main control module determines that it has received the enable signal from the top drive PLC controller, the main control module controls the analog output module AO to start. When it is necessary to control the rotation of the top drive, the main control module controls the contacts of the first dual-channel solid-state relay K7 and the second dual-channel solid-state relay K8 to close. The main control module outputs the preset speed signal for controlling the rotation of the top drive through the analog output module AO as a control signal recognizable by the top drive PLC, and then transmits it to the top drive PLC controller through the first dual-channel solid-state relay K7, so that the top drive PLC controller controls the top drive to start rotating at the preset speed. In addition, the main control module outputs the preset torque signal for controlling the rotation of the top drive through the analog output module AO as a control signal recognizable by the top drive PLC, and then transmits it to the top drive PLC controller through the second dual-channel solid-state relay K8, so that the top drive PLC controller controls the top drive to start rotating at the preset torque.

[0033] The present invention further includes: a speed and torque input module; the speed and torque input module is connected to the main control module and the top drive PLC controller respectively, and the main control module is connected to the driller's operating table; the speed and torque input module is used to receive the actual speed and actual torque signals of the top drive output by the top drive PLC controller and send them to the main control module.

[0034] In this invention, the speed and torque input module includes: an analog input module; the analog input module is connected to the main control module; the analog input module is respectively connected to the speed output port and the torque output port of the top drive PLC controller.

[0035] In this embodiment of the invention, the analog input module AI is connected to both the speed output port and the torque output port of the top drive PLC controller. When controlling the top drive rotation, the speed output port of the top drive PLC controller transmits the actual speed signal of the current top drive motor to the main control unit via the analog input module AI. Simultaneously, the torque output port of the top drive PLC controller transmits the actual torque signal of the current top drive motor to the main control unit via the analog input module AI. The main control unit transmits the actual speed and torque signals to the driller's control panel, enabling the operator to monitor the top drive's operation in real time.

[0036] The present invention further includes: a first safety barrier, a second safety barrier, a third safety barrier, and a fourth safety barrier; the first safety barrier is connected between the first dual-channel solid-state relay and the speed input port of the top drive PLC controller, the second safety barrier is connected between the second dual-channel solid-state relay and the torque input port of the top drive PLC controller; the third safety barrier is connected between the analog input module AI and the speed output port of the top drive PLC controller, and the fourth safety barrier is connected between the analog input module AI and the torque output port of the top drive PLC controller.

[0037] In this embodiment of the invention, the actual speed signal of the top drive PLC controller enters the analog input module AI through the third safety isolation barrier SF3, while the actual torque signal of the top drive PLC controller enters the analog input module AI through the fourth safety isolation barrier SF4. The third safety isolation barrier SF3 and the fourth safety isolation barrier SF4 are used to isolate the 4-20mA current signal, ensuring the safety of the analog input module AI and the main control module.

[0038] When the first dual-channel solid-state relay K7 and the second dual-channel solid-state relay K8 are connected to the analog output module AO, the preset speed signal output by the main control module will enter the top drive PLC controller through the first safety isolation barrier SF1, and the preset torque signal output by the main control module will enter the top drive PLC controller through the second safety isolation barrier SF2. The first safety isolation barrier SF1 and the second safety isolation barrier SF2 are used to isolate 0-10V voltage signals to ensure the safety of the analog output module AO and the main control module.

[0039] The system's analog signals are isolated by a selected safety barrier to ensure operational safety. This safety barrier provides isolation for power supply, input, and output while ensuring accurate signal transmission.

[0040] This invention further includes a power supply module; the power supply module is connected to both the main control module and the power source, and is used to convert the power supply voltage into a predetermined voltage and transmit it to the main control module and the signal input module, enable signal receiving module, forward / reverse control module, and parameter control module connected thereto. The power supply module includes a surge suppressor and a filter.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, the power supply module converts the 220V AC power output to 24V DC power to power the central processing unit (CPU) P1 of the main control module and the various modules connected thereto. The power supply module includes a surge suppressor AR1 to prevent surge damage to other equipment in the circuit and an EMC filter FT1 to filter out conducted signal interference.

[0042] The present invention further includes: a forward / reverse control switching module; the forward / reverse control switching module is connected to the forward / reverse control module, the signal input module, the top drive PLC controller and the driller's operating table respectively, and the forward / reverse control switching module is used to control the connection or disconnection between the top drive PLC controller and the forward / reverse control module, and to control the connection or disconnection between the driller's operating table and the top drive PLC controller.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, the forward / reverse control switching module includes: a third dual-channel solid-state relay K4, a fourth dual-channel solid-state relay K5, and a fifth dual-channel solid-state relay K6; wherein, the third dual-channel solid-state relay K4 is connected to the first single-channel solid-state relay K1, the top drive PLC controller, and the main control module respectively; the fourth dual-channel solid-state relay K5 is connected to the second single-channel solid-state relay K2, the driller's operating table, the top drive PLC controller, and the main control module respectively; and the fifth dual-channel solid-state relay K6 is connected to the third single-channel solid-state relay K3, the driller's operating table, the top drive PLC controller, and the main control module respectively.

[0044] The third dual-channel solid-state relay K4 is used as follows: When automatic control is not in use, the third dual-channel solid-state relay K4 is connected to the driller's console and the top drive PLC controller. At this time, the top drive PLC controller transmits the enable signal to the driller's console through the third dual-channel solid-state relay K4, and the driller's console controls the rotation of the top drive. When automatic control is required, the main control module controls the third dual-channel solid-state relay K4 to connect with the first single-channel solid-state relay K1, and simultaneously disconnects from the driller's console. That is, it controls the normally closed contact of the third dual-channel solid-state relay K4 to open and the normally open contact of the first single-channel solid-state relay K1 to close. This allows the main control module to control the first single-channel solid-state relay K1 to close through the third dual-channel solid-state relay K4, so that the enable signal of the top drive PLC controller is transmitted to the main control module.

[0045] The fourth dual-channel solid-state relay K5 and the fifth dual-channel solid-state relay K6 are used to connect to the driller's console and the top drive PLC controller when automatic control is not in use. The forward and reverse signals of the top drive are transmitted to the top drive PLC controller through the driller's console and the fourth dual-channel solid-state relay K5 and the fifth dual-channel solid-state relay K6, so that the driller's console controls the top drive to perform forward and reverse operations.

[0046] When automatic control is required, the main control module controls the fourth dual-channel solid-state relay K5 to connect with the second single-channel solid-state relay K2, while simultaneously disconnecting from the driller's control panel. Specifically, it controls the normally closed contact of the fourth dual-channel solid-state relay K5 to open, and the normally open contact of the second single-channel solid-state relay K2 to close. This causes the control signal for forward rotation of the top drive output by the main control module to control the second single-channel solid-state relay K2 to be transmitted to the top drive PLC controller. Furthermore, the main control module controls the fifth dual-channel solid-state relay K6 to connect with the third single-channel solid-state relay K3, while simultaneously disconnecting from the driller's control panel. Specifically, it controls the normally closed contact of the fifth dual-channel solid-state relay K6 to open, and the normally open contact of the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 to close. This causes the control signal for reverse rotation of the top drive output by the main control module to control the third single-channel solid-state relay K3 to be transmitted to the top drive PLC controller.

[0047] The main control module controls K4, K5, and K6 to switch the enable signal and top drive forward / reverse control signal between manual control on the driller's console and automatic control by the main control module. When the system is not in use, it connects to the existing input / output signals on the driller's console, and after switching, it connects to K1, K2, and K3 to achieve automatic control. K4, K5, K6, K7, and K8 are also connected to external switching buttons for controlling their switching, enabling one-button rapid system switching.

[0048] In this embodiment of the invention, the main control module, signal input module, enable signal receiving module, and forward / reverse control module are connected to a compressed air source via an air filter and pressure reducing valve. The air filter and pressure reducing valve reduces and filters the compressed air, providing positive pressure and explosion-proof protection for the internal circuits of each module. The signal input module includes a username and password input program for operator login; only by entering the correct username and password can the automatic torsional drag reduction control system be used. The signal input module program includes torque and speed limit parameter functions, preventing operators from inputting torque and speed values ​​exceeding these limits to avoid errors and potential hazards. The signal input module's display screen also shows buttons for controlling the emergency start / stop of the automatic torsional drag reduction control system, as well as the current actual top drive speed and torque value, and preset speed and torque values. It can also plot corresponding real-time parameter change curves for convenient on-site observation and recording.

[0049] It is understood that the various embodiments mentioned above in this invention can be combined with each other to form combined embodiments without violating the principle and logic. Due to space limitations, this invention will not elaborate further.

[0050] The main control module can be a user equipment (UE), mobile device, user terminal, terminal, cellular phone, cordless phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), handheld device, computing device, in-vehicle device, wearable device, etc. In some possible implementations, the main control module can control the process by calling computer-readable signals stored in its internal memory through its internal processor.

[0051] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing torsional drag reduction systems by connecting a main control module to the top drive driller's console via a cable. The main control module controls five bidirectional solid-state relays to switch circuits, allowing control from the driller's console to automatic system control, simulating manual operation. This significantly reduces operator workload, minimizes the risk of human error, and simplifies system switching. The main control module directly connects to the top drive PLC controller via various digital and analog input / output modules for data transmission, eliminating direct electrical signal connections between them. This isolates and optimizes the control signals from the electrical system of the top drive driller's console. Digital signal transmission ensures system safety while providing accurate and efficient control of the top drive.

[0052] This invention achieves electrical isolation through rational circuit design, program optimization, and optimal selection of electrical components. It employs encoderless control of the top drive, optimizing and synchronizing the precise control of the top drive speed without an encoder. This significantly improves the safety, stability, and accuracy of system control signal transmission, thereby enhancing drilling speed and downhole safety. It effectively reduces downhole drill string friction, minimizes drag, and enhances tool face stability. Furthermore, this invention is user-friendly, featuring a visual human-machine interface via a touchscreen, requiring only a simple learning curve. The system only needs to connect to the corresponding port of the top drive PLC to be used with various brands of top drive PLC controllers without altering the existing top drive control program, demonstrating strong versatility.

Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or technical improvements to the embodiments in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
