Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a novel plunger type well drilling throttle valve belongs to the throttle valve technical field in well control equipment field. BACKGROUND

[0002] Controlled pressure drilling technology is increasingly valued at home and abroad, and has become one of the hot drilling technologies. With the continuous promotion of controlled pressure drilling technology, the performance requirements of the controlled pressure drilling throttle valve are becoming higher and higher.

[0003] During the controlled pressure drilling process, the throttle valve always controls the drilling fluid returned from the wellhead, controls the casing pressure within the design range, and the throttle valve is continuously operated under pressure. Compared with conventional well control operation, it has a longer working time and higher requirements for the working stability and service life of the throttle valve. The maintainability on site and the precision of pressure control have high requirements.

[0004] The common throttle valve on the market has some defects in actual work. The ordinary needle type throttle valve is prone to high frequency vibration during use, which causes the needle to fall off and break. Although the orifice type throttle valve has small vibration during use, the throttle aperture is too small, the throttling efficiency is not high, and the operation torque is large, which makes it difficult for the on-site workers to use. The conventional throttle valve has the same principle, but the valve core outer protection device is an integral structure. Although the pressure resistance is guaranteed, leakage and blockage often occur during on-site use, which cannot be repaired and maintained on site, greatly affecting the operation stability of the entire equipment. The common throttle valve vibrates during use and cannot be completely avoided. The existence of vibration will aggravate the failure of the throttle valve and increase the overall difficulty and instability. Utility model content
