Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of petroleum and natural gas drilling blowout preventer, concretely is a kind of blowout preventer for petroleum and natural gas drilling. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the operation of petroleum and natural gas drilling, blowout is a serious safety hazard. Blowout usually occurs when the downhole pressure exceeds the control range, and the oil and gas or mud in the well will be quickly sprayed out, resulting in disastrous consequences. In order to deal with this risk, blowout preventer (BOP) is introduced in drilling operation, which is a specially designed safety system that can timely close the wellhead and control the downhole pressure when blowout occurs, preventing oil and gas leakage. Its main function is to quickly close the wellhead when the wellhead pressure is out of control during drilling, prevent oil and gas from being sprayed out or downhole fluid from leaking, and ensure operation safety. BOP is usually installed on the wellhead and consists of multiple sealing and control systems, which can respond to changes in wellhead pressure through different operating modes. The working principle of blowout preventer is based on sealing and pressure control. When blowout risk occurs during drilling, BOP quickly closes the wellhead by activating different types of sealing devices, such as cup-shaped seals and rubber seals, to cut off the release path of downhole pressure. At the same time, blowout preventer is also equipped with various sensors and monitoring equipment to monitor the pressure changes at the wellhead in real time, ensuring timely response to blowout risk. In addition, BOP can also cut off the flow of oil and gas in the well through the parallel configuration of cutters and valve systems when needed. Blowout preventer is not only used in conventional drilling operations, but also plays an important role in deep sea drilling and oil and gas extraction under complex geological conditions.

[0003] This type of device is usually controlled by a hydraulic, pneumatic or electric control system to open and close the blowout preventer through remote operation. The existing device is usually complex to operate, and multiple devices are required to meet the flow reduction or permanent closure of the channel operation. It cannot respond quickly in a short time, and the diameter of the drill pipe is different. The existing device cannot adapt to different diameters of drill pipe for flow reduction or direct flow interruption operation. Therefore, a blowout preventer with high freedom and one-piece is needed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
