Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cementing construction, in particular to a casing lowering auxiliary device. Background Art

[0002] In the field of oil drilling and production, casing is a steel pipe used to support the wall of oil and gas wells to ensure the normal operation of the entire oil well during the drilling process and after completion. Each well uses several layers of casing according to different drilling depths and geological conditions. The casing is inserted into the wellbore and fixed with cement to prevent the wellbore from separating the rock strata and the wellbore from collapsing, and to ensure the circulation of drilling mud for drilling and production. At present, in the process of coalbed methane drilling and production, the casing needs to be lowered into the oil well by lifting equipment. Since the casing needs to be kept centered in the wellbore when lowering the casing, a centralizer is usually used. Under normal circumstances, the contact force between the centralizer and the casing is controllable and within the design range. However, in some special cases, the contact force may exceed expectations, and it is difficult for the staff to find it in time, resulting in excessive displacement of the casing and thus inducing safety accidents.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new casing lowering auxiliary device to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0021] The specific implementation of the present utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0022] See also Figures 1 to 3 An embodiment of the utility model provides a casing lowering auxiliary device, which includes a mounting ring frame 1, steel balls 3 and a central coupling component 4.

[0023] In the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , a plurality of annularly distributed and axially arranged arc plates 2 are installed on the mounting ring frame 1, and the plurality of annularly distributed arc plates 2 on the mounting ring frame 1 constitute a guide structure for the lower casing, and the inner arc surface of each arc plate 2 is embedded with a plurality of uniformly distributed and rotatably connected steel balls 3; and a middle link component 4 for elastically connected arc plates 2 is installed on the mounting ring frame 1, and the middle link component 4 includes a mounting frame 41, the mounting frame 41 is fixedly mounted on the mounting ring frame 1, and an elastically connected sliding seat 42 is inserted in the mounting frame 41, specifically, Two guide rods 45 symmetrically distributed and radially arranged along the mounting ring frame 1 are fixedly installed in the mounting frame 41, and the sliding seat 42 is sleeved on the two guide rods 45 and slidably connected with the guide rods 45, and each guide rod 45 is sleeved with a spring 44, one end of the spring 44 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 41, and the other end of the spring 44 is fixedly connected to the plate surface of the sliding seat 42 away from the axis of the mounting ring frame 1, and a connecting bracket 43 is fixedly installed on the sliding seat 42, and the connecting bracket 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the arc plate 2.

[0024] It should be noted that: the mounting ring frame 1 is fixed to the wellhead by screws and the mounting ring frame 1 is kept coaxially arranged with the wellhead, and then the lower casing is inserted into the oil well through the guide structure composed of multiple arc-shaped plates 2 by the lifting equipment. Since the inner plate wall of the arc-shaped plate 2 is provided with a rotatably connected steel ball 3, the lower casing can be quickly dropped into the oil well along the guide structure, and because the sliding seat 42 is acted upon by the elastic force of the spring 44 on the guide rod 45, the lower casing is driven to remain stable during the lowering process of the lifting equipment, thereby reducing the amplitude of shaking or deviation of the lower casing when it is lowered.

[0025] Furthermore, fixing ears 46 are fixedly mounted on both side walls of the mounting frame 41 , and the fixing ears 46 are fixedly mounted on the mounting ring frame 1 by screws, thereby facilitating the installation of the mounting frame 41 on the mounting ring frame 1 .

[0026] In the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figures 1 to 3A rear plate 5 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the mounting frame 41, and a sound and light alarm 6 and a contact switch 61 for turning on and off the sound and light alarm 6 are fixedly installed on the rear plate 5, and a contact rod 7 is fixedly installed on the plate surface of the connecting bracket 43 away from the axis of the mounting ring frame 1, and the contact rod 7 is arranged opposite to the contact switch 61.

[0027] It should be noted that: when the lower casing deviates to the side during the lowering process of the lifting equipment, the lower casing abuts against the arc plate 2 in the side-deviated position, so the arc plate 2 drives the sliding seat 42 to slide backward along the guide rod 45 through the connecting bracket 43, so that the spring 44 is compressed. When the abutment rod 7 abuts against the contact switch 61, the contact switch 61 activates the sound and light alarm 6. Therefore, the staff can quickly know the deviation amplitude when the lower casing is under, so that technical correction can be carried out in time to avoid inducing installation accidents.

[0028] In this solution, an eddy current detection sensor 8 is fixedly installed on the inner plate wall of each of the arc plates 2. When the lower casing moves downward along the guide structure formed by multiple arc plates 2, the eddy current detection sensor 8 detects cracks in the lower casing so that the staff can maintain the damaged and cracked lower casing in time.

[0029] The working principle of the casing lowering auxiliary device provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0030] The mounting ring frame 1 is fixed to the wellhead by screws and the mounting ring frame 1 is kept coaxially arranged with the wellhead. Then, the lower casing is inserted into the oil well through the guide structure composed of multiple arc-shaped plates 2 by the lifting equipment. Since the inner plate wall of the arc-shaped plate 2 is provided with a rotatably connected steel ball 3, the lower casing can be quickly dropped into the oil well along the guide structure. In addition, since the sliding seat 42 is acted upon by the elastic force of the spring 44 on the guide rod 45, the lower casing is driven to remain stable during the lowering process of the lifting equipment, thereby reducing the lowering of the casing. When the lower casing deviates sideways during the lowering process of the lifting equipment, the lower casing abuts against the arc plate 2 in the sideways position, so the arc plate 2 drives the sliding seat 42 to slide backward along the guide rod 45 through the connecting bracket 43, so that the spring 44 is compressed, and when the abutting rod 7 abuts against the contact switch 61, the contact switch 61 activates the sound and light alarm 6. Therefore, the staff can quickly know the deviation amplitude when the lower casing is under, so as to make technical corrections in time to avoid installation accidents.

[0031] The circuits and controls involved in the present invention are all prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0032] The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
