Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oilfield casing shaping and repairing, in particular to a hydraulic casing shaping tool. Background Art
[0002] At present, there are three main methods of casing shaping at home and abroad: explosive shaping, mechanical impact shaping, and hydraulic shaping. Among them, explosive shaping technology has gradually faded out of the application field due to its cumbersome process, high cost, and unpredictable shaping effect. Mechanical impact shaping and hydraulic shaping are low in cost and easy to detect and evaluate. Generally, mechanical shaping requires the use of large-tonnage lifting equipment and drill pipes for impact shaping, while hydraulic shaping only requires ordinary high-pressure sealing oil pipes and high-pressure pumping equipment. The principles of mechanical shaping and hydraulic shaping are similar. Both use axial pressure to drive the shaper to squeeze the small-diameter casing to expand and restore to complete the casing repair. The difference is that the axial pressure of mechanical shaping comes from the weight of the pipe string and the momentum of the impact, while the axial pressure of hydraulic shaping comes from the high pressure inside the pump of the high-pressure hydraulic pumping equipment.
[0003] These two existing technologies also have the following problems when used: Mechanical shaping uses a slow-lift-fast-release method to impact shaping, and its shaping progress is too fast, resulting in an increased risk of drill jamming. The conventional hydraulic shaping tool anti-top anchoring mechanism uses conventional one-way anchoring hard metal as the bearing core component, and its ability to cut into the casing is limited, and it cannot bear the large-tonnage shaping upward force. In the hydraulic main push mechanism of the conventional hydraulic shaping tool, the matching design of the hydraulic piston and the center tube adopts a split-type step-by-step reduction of the effective area, which limits the design of the effective area of the hydraulic main push, so that the shaping tool output shaping thrust is limited, and the overall strength and connection reliability of the tool are reduced. There is a risk of the tool falling off during frequent high-intensity shaping. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a hydraulic casing shaping tool. The anti-top anchoring mechanism bears the reverse top force and provides power support during the hydraulic casing shaping process. The baffle is longitudinally inserted into the corresponding dovetail groove to prevent the anchor claw body from accidentally falling out of the groove. The baffle ring is threadedly connected to the outer side of the anchor body to limit the longitudinal swing of the baffle. The hydraulic main pushing mechanism provides main pushing force support for the hydraulic casing shaping when subjected to the high pressure in the tool. The pear-shaped tube expansion mechanism helps the tool to seal the internal pressure of the tool during hydraulic shaping and squeezes out the reduced diameter casing to achieve the shaping purpose. By optimizing the design of the tube expander and simplifying the structure of the tube expander, the tube expansion mechanism can guide the liquid more smoothly during drilling and well washing, has higher strength, and is safer to shape. It is easier to squeeze into the reduced diameter casing during the shaping process, and the shaping and repairing casing effect is more significant.

[0024] Specific working principle:
[0025] For hydraulic shaping status, please refer to Figure 2As shown, the tool is lowered into the well with the pipe string to the place where the casing is deformed and reduced in diameter. The pear-shaped expander 16 encounters resistance, and a certain drilling pressure is applied to the pipe string. The valve ball 17 is inserted into the oil pipe and sits on the sealing cone surface of the check valve 15 to form a seal. The internal pressure of the transmission oil pipe increases, and the anchor claw body 4 is radially extended under the driving of the internal pressure of the tool. The one-way tilted hard alloy teeth embedded in the anchor claw body 4 cut into the inner wall of the casing, which can withstand a sufficiently high hydraulic shaping reaction upward force. At the same time, the multi-stage linkage piston body 8 moves downward under the action of the internal pressure. The inner wall of the casing is radially squeezed by the piston body 8, the connecting tube 13 and the pear-shaped expander 16, and the inner wall of the casing is radially squeezed. The reverse lifting force on the central tube 12 is overcome by the radial expansion of the anchor claw body 4 anchoring the casing. The central tube 12 remains relatively still. The multi-stage piston body 8, the connecting tube 13 and the pear-shaped expander 16 are driven by the internal pressure to move downward continuously, and the inner wall of the casing is radially squeezed continuously until the stroke is exhausted and the inner pressure of the oil pipe suddenly rises sharply. Then this section of the deformed casing is completely squeezed by the pear-shaped expander 16. After the deformation is passed, the tubing is lifted up to normal load after the tubing is depressurized, and the same drilling pressure is applied to the tubing column again to pressurize and reset the piston body 8, the connecting tube 13, and the pear-shaped expander 16. If the resistance point is significantly deepened, the last hydraulic shaping is effective. Otherwise, at the original resistance point, the internal pressure of the tubing is slowly increased again to squeeze and expand the casing deformation point or segment. If the original deformation point is successfully shaped, the tubing is deepened, the same drilling pressure is applied to pressurize and reset the piston body 8, the connecting tube 13, and the pear-shaped expander 16, and the tubing is slowly lifted. The internal pressure of the pipe continues to squeeze, expand and reshape the deformation points or sections of the casing to normal, thereby continuously deepening the shaping of the pipe string to complete the deformation and shrinkage points or sections of the casing. The shaping of the expander of this level is completed, and the shaping pipe string of this level is proposed, and the pear-shaped expander 16 of a larger outer diameter size is replaced to continue to reshape all the deformation and shrinkage points or sections of the casing. In this way, the outer diameter of the pear-shaped expander 16 is continuously expanded until all the deformation points or sections of the pear-shaped expander 16 of the largest outer diameter size are also completely shaped, and the casing shaping of this well is completely successful.
