Abstract: |
The main working principle of the pushing bit rotary steering drilling system is via the so called "speed lever" mechanism. But, due to the limitation of the method, it has become a "strangle" problem to further improve trajectory control ability, prolong service life and increase drilling speed. In this study, a new rotary steering method based on the principle of "force-reducing lever" was proposed, and a finite element analysis model of trajectory control ability was established. The effectiveness of the new method was analyzed by comparing the three indexes of lateral pushing force, bit pointing angle and drilling trend angle obtained using a conventional push rotary steering drilling system. The results show that the new rotary steering method can increase the pushing force of the rotary steering tool by several times, achieving the purpose of combining with the pushing and pointing of the bit to control the wellbore trajectory, and providing space for the installation of speed-up tools without affecting the trajectory control ability and tool life. |
