A calculation formula for natural frequency of horizontal resonance and rotational speed is derived based on the calculation method by Ritz, with which analysis is made for the cause and affecting factors of the excessive abrasion of heavy-weight drill pipe in high-angle holes so as to provide reference and basis for rational selection of drilling parameters and drilling tools in the future high-angle directional drilling.

Numerical calculation of temperature and phase change during the process of atomizing spray quenching on drilling pipe

A finite element method (FEM) procedure was developed in order to simulatethe quenching process for drilling pipe (DP). The calculating model was based ontime-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams, and incorporated with material properties dependenton temperature. The procedure was used to calculate the temperature-time histories, describe thephase transformations of atomizing spray quenching for DP in the welding zone, and predict thehardness distribution in radius direction after quenching in the zone. The calculated results metwell with that of experiments. It was easy to determine the parameters such as volume and pressureof the cooling water and compressed gas by use of the numerical calculation and experiments, becausethe value of convection coefficient was decided greatly by the mixture of the cooling water andcompressed gas. Moreover, the simulating results were helpful not only to design the quenchingequipment, but also to optimize the quenching process for DP's welding zone.

Processing practice of Baosteel drill pipes

Drill pipe products are the most critical service requirement,the highest performance requirement and the highest quality reliability OCTG products.Through the continuous research on steelmaking,upset, heart treatment,straightening and friction welding,Baosteel improves the key technical parameters which affect the quality of drill pipe,such as material purity,Miu of internal upset transition area,toughness and straightness.Baosteel drill pipe products have met the demanding requirement of drilling operations.By BRP dephosphorization and LF desulfurization,the P,S content of Baosteel drill pipe is very low.The S content of S-135 drill pipe can be controlled in less than 10ppm.Baosteel designs a new closed-loop control system of upset end induction heating system.The system use temperature measurement inside the oven and closed-loop control.The temperature accuracy of the system can be guaranteed within the±15℃to get a stable upset quality.The upsetting process of the drill pipe is optimized by using patented technology and made the Miu from 100 mm to 140 mm.This make a substantial increase in fatigue life of the drill pipe.To improve the impact toughness of the drill pipe body,the drill pipe body material is changed from Cr-Ni-Mo system to Cr-Mo-V system and the heat treatment is changed from oil quenching to water quenching.To improve the impact toughness of the tool joint,the tool joint furnace is upgraded to improve heating capacity.To improve the impact toughness of the weld zone,a new fuzzy control system of weld zone heat treatment is developed.The temperature accuracy of the system can be guaranteed within the±5℃to get a stable heat treatment quality.A new drill pipe straightness automatic detection devices and self-learning method of straightening are developed to achieve automated straightening.A welding process with high speed,single-stage pressure and high forging force is applied to inertia friction welding.A welding process with low speed,three-stage pressure and low forging force is applied to continous friction welding.

Corrosion characteristics and mechanism of the S135 drill pipes in slurry

The corrosion mechanism of the S135 drill pipes was investigated through observation of the corrosion morphology and analysis of the corrosion products by scanning electronic microscope （ SEM）, energy dispersive spectrum （EDS） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The results show that the localized corrosion on the outer surface of the drill pipes was caused by oxygen corrosion due to the action of retained slurry. Cl - contained in slurry accelerated the corrosion and promoted the development of corrosion pits. Suggestions for mitigating or preventing such corrosion of the drill pipes are proposed based on the research results.

Calculation of the Gas Injection Rate and Pipe String Erosion in Nitrogen Drilling Systems

Detailed information is provided for the design and construction of nitrogen drilling in a coal seam.Two prototype wells are considered.The Guo model is used to calculate the required minimum gas injection rate,while the Finnie,Sommerfeld,and Tulsa models are exploited to estimate the ensuing erosion occurring in pipe strings.The calculated minimum gas injection rates are 67.4 m^(3)/min(with water)and 49.4 m^(3)/min(without water),and the actual field of use is 90–120 m^(3)/min.The difference between the calculated injection pressure and the field value is 6.5%–15.2%(formation with water)and 0.65%–7.32%(formation without water).The results show that the Guo model can more precisely represent the situation of the no water formation in the nitrogen drilling of a coal seam.The Finnie,Sommerfeld,and Tulsa models have different sensitivities to cutting densities,particle size,impact velocity and angle,and pipe string hardness.

Stress Corrosion Cracking of High-strength Drill Pipe in Sour Gas Well

In high sour gas reservoir drilling process, it happens occasionally that high-strength drill pipe suffers brittle fracture failure due to stress corrosion cracking, and poses serious hazard to drilling safety. To solve this problem, this paper studied the stress corrosion cracking mechanism and infl uencing factors of highstrength drill pipe in sour environment with hydrogen permeation experiments and tensile tests. We simulated practical conditions in laboratory and evaluated the stress corrosion cracking performance of the high-strength drill pipe under conditions of high stress level. For the problems occurring in use of high-strength drill pipe on site, the paper proposed a technical measure for slower stress corrosion cracking.

Analysis of Drill Pipe＇s Effect on Casing

Frictional wear of inner walls of drill pipe and casing is produced by rotational advance of drill pipe in the casing due to the joint effect of drilling fluid, temperature and contact load during drilling, among which the main wear is on the drill string. With development of drilling technology, deep well, ultradeep well, high angle well, directional well, extended reach well and horizontal well are taking more and more proportion. Meanwhile, the problem of serious frictional wear between drill pipe and casing are becoming more significant due to long time of drilling, high probability of dogleg severity, high contact normal stress between drill pipe and casing etc. Tool sticking may also occur due to large frictional resistance. Therefore, higher requirements are made on the study of how to predict and prevent the wear of drill pipe and casing during drilling. The residual strength of the worn casing is also studied by analysis of the law of drill pipe＇s effect on the casing wear in this paper.

S135钻杆接头螺纹三维参数化建模及力学特性分析

S135钢级钻杆在矿井勘探、探放水、瓦斯抽采等钻孔施工中得到了广泛使用。然而,由于钻杆接头螺纹承受轴向拉压、扭转、弯曲及其复合载荷的循环作用,导致接头螺纹的使用寿命远远低于其设计寿命,是整个钻杆结构中最薄弱的环节。因此,通过万能拉伸试验获得钻杆接头材料的力学性能参数,经计算转化得到其本构参数,对钻杆接头进行有限元分析。为了提高有限元分析效率,推导垂直于钻杆接头轴线的螺纹截面轮廓几何表达式,基于旋转、抬升、缩径和连接节点的设计思路,提出了一种考虑钻杆接头锥度和台肩的三维螺纹参数化建模方法,并根据单元和节点之间的关系开发了钻杆接头连接的参数化三维六面体网格建模程序,通过与交互式建模方法计算结果的对比验证了其有效性和可行性。此外,对上扣扭矩、压扭及压弯扭复合载荷作用下接头外螺纹的力学特性进行了分析。结果表明:3种工况下钻杆接头外螺纹上的应力近似呈现“浴盆”形态,第1螺纹牙上的应力最大;随着圈次的增加,螺纹牙上的应力迅速下降,最后一圈螺纹牙上的应力呈现上升趋势;在弯矩的作用下,螺纹牙上的应力具有非对称特征。在接头螺纹设计时,必须考虑井眼曲率的影响并且需要重点关注接头压缩边第1螺纹牙上的应力。

含表面双裂纹的钻杆管体断裂性能研究

钻杆刺漏是钻杆在服役过程中最常见的失效形式,而钻杆表面裂纹的扩展是钻杆发生刺漏的直接原因。为更有效地评估钻杆表面含有多条裂纹时的安全性能,以某超深直井G105钻杆井口段为研究对象,建立管体外表面双裂纹有限元模型,分析了拉扭载荷下裂纹间距、次裂纹尺寸以及走向对环向主裂纹前缘J积分的影响。结果表明:轴向排列的环向次裂纹是相对最安全的,可大幅消减钻杆主裂纹前缘的J积分;环向排列的环向次裂纹相对最危险,可大幅增大钻杆主裂纹前缘的J积分;轴向次裂纹可增大钻杆主裂纹前缘或部分前缘的J积分,但增幅相对环向排列的环向次裂纹来说要微弱得多。次裂纹对主裂纹前缘J积分的影响强度随两裂纹间距的增大或次裂纹尺寸的减小而减小。因此在对含表面双裂纹的钻杆进行分析时,在次裂纹尺寸较大且距离较近的情况下应考虑次裂纹的影响;在次裂纹尺寸较小或距离较远时则可忽略次裂纹,将模型简化为单裂纹钻杆模型进行分析。

Deep-large faults controlling on the distribution of the venting gas hydrate system in the middle of the Qiongdongnan Basin, South China Sea

Many locations with concentrated hydrates at vents have confirmed the presence of abundant thermogenic gas in the middle of the Qiongdongnan Basin(QDNB).However,the impact of deep structures on gasbearing fluids migration and gas hydrates distribution in tectonically inactive regions is still unclear.In this study,the authors apply high-resolution 3D seismic and logging while drilling(LWD)data from the middle of the QDNB to investigate the influence of deep-large faults on gas chimneys and preferred gasescape pipes.The findings reveal the following:(1)Two significant deep-large faults,F1 and F2,developed on the edge of the Songnan Low Uplift,control the dominant migration of thermogenic hydrocarbons and determine the initial locations of gas chimneys.(2)The formation of gas chimneys is likely related to fault activation and reactivation.Gas chimney 1 is primarily arises from convergent fluid migration resulting from the intersection of the two faults,while the gas chimney 2 benefits from a steeper fault plane and shorter migration distance of fault F2.(3)Most gas-escape pipes are situated near the apex of the two faults.Their reactivations facilitate free gas flow into the GHSZ and contribute to the formation of fracture‐filling hydrates.

复合载荷作用下矿用定向钻杆接头的三维力学特性分析

煤矿钻杆在严苛的服役环境和复杂的受力状态下易失效,不仅影响正常生产,而且还因打捞困难致使事故恶化。针对上述问题,以煤矿φ73 mm外平定向钻杆为研究对象,对不同载荷下钻杆接头进行了受力分析,并通过单轴拉伸试验获得了接头材料的力学性能参数,构建了接头材料的本构模型。在此基础上,应用虚功原理、Von Mises屈服准则和接触非线性理论建立了钻杆接头螺纹的弹塑性有限元分析模型,分析了不同工况载荷作用下接头部位的受力状态及应力场分布规律。研究结果表明:在预紧扭矩为2000 N·m时,该钻杆接头具有良好的密封性能和联接强度;单扭和拉扭载荷下,靠近主台肩的第一螺纹牙为主要失效部位;在压、弯、扭载荷下,主台肩为主要失效部位;在钻机最大扭矩与推进力的作用下,接头的抗弯能力达到3°/3 m。

考虑钻杆接头的小井眼环空压耗计算模型

小井眼钻井作为开发深部油气资源的重要技术手段越来越受到重视。小井眼往往具有更高的环空压耗,这给环空压力控制带来了一定挑战。准确预测钻柱偏心旋转情况下的环空压耗是小井眼钻井的重要理论与实践基础,但常规预测模型适用性非常有限,往往忽略了钻杆接头的影响,无法满足现场的精度需求。为此,利用数值模拟技术,分析了钻杆接头对环空流场、压耗的影响规律,并据此确定了压耗修正因子经验模型的构建方式。分析结果表明:钻杆接头所产生的额外压耗受钻井液类型、钻杆转速、偏心和环空返速的影响,压耗修正因子的构建应考虑多种因素的耦合关系。利用152组数模结果,建立了针对新疆玛湖油田的小井眼环空压耗预测模型,该模型计算结果表明,在钻杆低偏心度情况下存在临界转速,使得环空压耗达到最大,而钻杆处于高偏心度时,环空压耗会随转速增大而增大;而偏心度对环空压耗的影响规律也会因转速不同而变得更加复杂。利用环空压耗预测模型,计算了玛湖油田MHHW-X井的当量循环密度,结果与PWD数据进行对比,平均误差仅为1.18%,模型具有较高的准确性。研究结果表明,利用数模结果建立的考虑钻杆接头的小井眼环空压耗模型可以满足现场预测精度需要,能够为现场环空压力控制提供指导。
