TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of well drilling safety, specifically is a safety device for well drilling. BACKGROUND
[0002] Drilling operation is a high-risk engineering activity, which not only involves complex mechanical equipment operation, but also faces the uncertainty of geological environment and weather environment; therefore, safety maintenance is an important work content when carrying out drilling operation. The specific parameters closely related to the safety of drilling operation are the hook load / suspension load (referred to as suspension load when the drilling tool is in a suspended state, and referred to as hook load when the drilling tool is lowered to contact the drilling bottom surface), the drilling pressure (the pressure of the drilling tool on the drilling bottom surface in the presence of hook load), and the slurry density, and the monitoring means for these parameters in the prior art has the following limitations:
[0003] Firstly, the hook load / suspension load and the drilling pressure can help the operating personnel to master the working parameters in the drilling operation and judge the working state of the drilling tool, thereby affecting the safety of the operation. Currently, a hook load meter is usually used to detect the hook load / suspension load and obtain the drilling pressure, but the operating personnel is prone to problems in obtaining the information displayed by the hook load meter. Specifically, the hook load meter of a mechanical drilling rig is generally installed beside a dead rope fixer on the drilling platform surface in a form directly facing the driller's house. For example, a hook load assembly is disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN220649764U, which includes a dead rope fixer, a hook load sensor, and a hook load meter. The hook load sensor is connected to the dead rope fixer, and the hook load meter is connected to the hook load sensor. However, in this arrangement, the driller has difficulty in seeing the display results of the hook load meter in bad weather such as rain, snow, and fog, which may affect the driller's control effect on the drilling rig, thereby possibly causing construction errors and safety accidents. The hook load meter of an electric drilling rig is usually installed in the driller's house. Although the driller can obtain the display results without being affected by bad weather, the wellhead operator on the drilling platform cannot directly and timely master the hook load and drilling pressure, which may cause blindness and uncertainty in the next operation at the wellhead, thereby causing certain safety risks and even major safety accidents.
[0004] Secondly, in the mud circulation process, the drilling fluid may be modified due to formation brine invasion and oil and gas invasion, which may lead to well wall instability, pipe sticking, and well leakage. The monitoring and analysis of the slurry density can help to find and take corresponding measures in time. Currently, a differential pressure densimeter is usually used to detect the slurry density, i.e., the differential pressure densimeter is installed in the mud tank at the drilling fluid return outlet. However, the differential pressure densimeter is easily affected by the characteristics of the medium. In the complex medium of drilling slurry, the differential pressure densimeter may have measurement lag and inaccurate results.
[0005] Thirdly, separate devices are needed to detect and display the hook load / hanging load and the return slurry density respectively, so that the operation personnel obtain information in a scattered manner, and thus it is inconvenient to perform comprehensive and efficient safety maintenance. In addition, when the mud pump for drilling is started, if the high-pressure valve in the mud manifold (mud circulation pipeline) is not opened or the mud circulation is blocked, high-pressure pump blocking will occur, which may endanger the safety of the equipment and the personnel.
[0006] In summary, the utility model provides a kind of safety device for drilling. Utility model content
