Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil drilling, and particularly relates to a casing patching device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of oil and gas exploration and development, as an important component of oil and gas wells, the stability and integrity of casing directly relate to the safety production and economic benefits of oil and gas fields. However, with the increase of oil and gas well mining years, casing is often affected by corrosion, wear, geological structure stress and other factors, resulting in damage in local areas, such as perforation, cracking and the like. If these damages are not repaired in time, not only the normal production of oil and gas wells will be affected, but also safety accidents such as blowout and formation fluid channeling may occur, causing great loss to enterprises and environment.
[0003] Traditional casing repair methods mainly include replacing the whole casing and local welding repair. Although replacing the whole casing can effectively solve the casing damage problem, it has high cost, long construction period and great influence on oil and gas field production. Although local welding repair has relatively low cost, thermal stress is easily generated in the welding process, affecting the overall performance of the casing, and the welding quality is difficult to guarantee, and the repair effect is unstable. At present, the repair methods for casing damage at home and abroad mainly include the following:
[0004] 1. Replacing the whole casing: this method is suitable for the case where the casing damage is serious and cannot be repaired locally. However, the construction is complex, the cost is high, the period is long, and the production needs to be stopped, which has great influence on the production of oil and gas fields.
[0005] 2. Local welding repair: the damaged area is repaired by welding. However, thermal stress is easily generated in the welding process, affecting the overall performance of the casing; and the welding quality is greatly affected by the skill level of the operator, and the repair effect is unstable.
[0006] 3. Casing patching technology: in recent years, casing patching technology has gradually been valued and applied in actual production. This technology repairs local damage of casing by designing and installing patching parts, and has the advantages of simple construction, low cost and short repair period. However, there are still some problems in the actual application of the existing patching technology, such as insufficient fixing strength between the patching part and the casing, poor sealing performance and the like, which affect the repair effect and service life.
