Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drill pipe, especially to a high wear resistance drill pipe of deep nitrogen oxygen composite treatment. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of modern industrial development, drilling operation is widely used in oil exploitation, mineral exploration, geological research and construction of various building foundations and other fields, and is the key means to obtain underground resource information and implement underground engineering construction. With the continuous growth of resource demand in various industries and the expansion of exploration and mining areas to deeper strata and complex geological conditions, drilling technology is facing increasingly high requirements. As a core component of drilling equipment, the performance improvement of drill pipe has a crucial impact on the efficiency, cost and safety of the entire drilling operation.

[0003] However, in the drilling process, the drill cuttings generated by the existing drill bit cutting strata are difficult to smoothly discharge from the drill hole, resulting in a large accumulation of drill cuttings between the drill pipe and the hole wall. This not only greatly increases the friction resistance when the drill pipe rotates, greatly increases the power required for drilling, causing waste of energy, but also seriously affects the continuity and efficiency of the drilling operation, increasing the construction cost and time cost. At the same time, the traditional drill pipe has serious defects in stress uniformity, and the stress cannot be uniformly distributed during rotation, which causes the drill pipe to locally bear excessive pressure and friction during work, accelerating the wear and damage of the drill pipe, shortening the service life of the drill pipe, and frequent replacement of the drill pipe further increases the economic burden and time consumption of the drilling operation. In addition, the friction between the traditional drill pipe and the stratum is relatively single and the friction is large, which not only affects the drilling efficiency, but also the excessive heat generated by friction may have an adverse effect on the material properties of the drill pipe, reducing the reliability and stability of the drill pipe.

[0010] In a further embodiment, a surface lubricating coating is arranged on the periphery of the surface lubricating coating for increasing the smoothness of the outer surface of the drill pipe, wherein the surface lubricating coating is made of a high polymer material with low friction coefficient and good high temperature resistance, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) based composite material, which is modified by adding appropriate amount of lubricant (such as graphite, molybdenum disulfide, etc.) and antioxidant and other additives to further improve its lubricating performance and high temperature stability.
