Axial Vibration Analysis of the Mud Recovery Line on Deepwater Riserless Mud Recovery Drilling System

The series connection of multistage pumping module is the common concept of deepwater riserless mud recovery drilling system. In this system, the influence of the mass of pumping module on the vibration of mud recovery line cannot be ignored, and the lumped mass method has been utilized to discretize the mud recovery line. Based on the analysis of different boundary conditions, the paper establishes the axial forced vibration model of the mud recovery line considering the seawater damping, and the vibration model analysis provides the universal solution to the vibration model. An example of the two-stage pumping system has been used to analyze the dynamic response of mud recovery line under different excited frequencies. This paper has the important directive significance for the application of riserless mud recovery drilling technology in deepwater surface drilling.

无隔水管海底泵举升系统井底压力计算与分析

在无隔水管海底泵举升系统(riserless mud recovery system,RMR)钻井中,当钻井泵停止工作时,可能会发生U型管效应,而U型管效应的发生势必会导致井底压力处于不平衡状,发生溢流的概率将大大增加。为了能够在U型管效应发生期间,对井底压力进行控制,保持井眼稳定,通过建立RMR系统在停泵工况下的U型管效应环空返速数学模型,对RMR系统在该期间的环空返速和井底压力变化进行了模拟,分析了在恒定井底压力下海底泵入口压力和海底泵出口流量的变化规律。结果表明:海底泵入口流量越小,可调区间越大;钻井泵停泵前流量越大,维持井底压力恒定下的时间越短,钻井泵停泵前27、32、37、42 L/s时流量可调的截止时间分别为21、19、18、16 min。形成了适用于RMR系统在该期间进行井底压力控制的流量调节方法,为实际作业时的井控方法和操作提供了理论指导。
