Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil well casing technology, and in particular to a high sulfur-resistant austenitic stainless steel seamless casing for oil wells. Background Technology

[0002] In oil and gas extraction, well casing is a crucial piece of equipment, responsible for supporting the wellbore, preventing groundwater contamination, and transporting oil and gas. However, due to the unique operating environment of oil wells, such as high sulfur content, high temperature and pressure, and corrosive media, traditional well casing often faces problems such as corrosion, wear, and breakage, seriously affecting the safe and stable operation of oil wells. Furthermore, existing well casing structures still suffer from low overall strength, insufficient sulfur resistance, and inability to be stably installed inside oil wells.

[0003] Therefore, it is essential to invent a seamless casing made of high sulfur-resistant austenitic stainless steel for oil wells. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a high-sulfur-resistant austenitic stainless steel seamless casing for oil wells. This solves the issues of existing oil well casing structures having low overall strength, lacking adequate sulfur resistance, and being unable to be stably installed inside oil wells. The high-sulfur-resistant austenitic stainless steel seamless casing for oil wells includes an oil well casing, casing connecting flanges, connecting bolts, and fixing nuts. The casing connecting flanges are fixedly installed at both ends of the oil well casing, and the oil well casings are butt-jointed via the casing connecting flanges at both ends and fixedly connected by connecting bolts and fixing nuts.

[0005] The oil well casing includes a support pipe body, a flow guiding and protective pipe wall, an outer protective shell, and support corrugations. The flow guiding and protective pipe wall is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the support pipe body, and the outer protective shell is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the support pipe body. The support corrugations are fixedly installed on the surface of the outer protective shell.

[0006] The casing connection flange includes a support plate structure, a concrete guide port, and a fixed connection hole. The support plate structure is fixedly installed at both ends of the oil well casing. The concrete guide port is opened inside the support plate structure. The fixed connection hole is opened inside the support plate structure, and the concrete guide port and the fixed connection hole are staggered inside the support plate structure.

[0007] The oil well casing is made of several seamless austenitic stainless steel pipes, and multiple oil well casings are connected by casing flanges to form a long pipe. The wall of the flow-guiding and protective pipe is made of a layer of titanium alloy metal pipe. The outer protective shell is made of a carbon steel metal pipe, and the supporting corrugations are made of several parallel carbon steel metal rings with consistent gaps between them. It has the following functions: ① Preventing formation collapse: After the oil well casing is installed, it can prevent formation collapse and ensure the stability of the wellbore. Formation stability is the foundation of oil well safety and production. The oil well casing can protect the formation around the wellbore from damage and collapse; ② Isolating the formation: During the drilling process, the oil well casing is used to isolate different formations to prevent cross-contamination of well fluids between different formations and maintain the purity of the oil and gas layer; ③ Stability after installation: After the oil well casing is installed, concrete is filled between the oil well casing and the wellbore wall. The supporting corrugations allow the utility model to be more tightly connected to the well wall through the concrete, preventing changes in position.

[0008] The casing connection flange plate is made of a circular austenitic stainless steel metal plate, and the concrete guide port has several sets of openings. The concrete guide port is evenly distributed inside the support plate structure and has the following functions: ① Connecting the casing: The casing connection flange plate is used to connect the two ends of the oil well casing. By being fixedly installed at both ends of the oil well casing, the casing connection flange plate can stably connect the oil well casing together to form a complete pipeline system. This connection method helps to ensure the sealing between the casings and the stability of the structure; ② Concrete flow: The setting of the concrete guide port facilitates the flow of concrete between the oil well casing and the well wall, which is convenient for high-strength fixing of this utility model.
