Problems solved by technology

[0005] In short, in many cases, if the wellbore direction and the target are not restricted at the same time, it will have an adverse effect on the wellbore trajectory control during drilling construction, and even fail to achieve the scheduled drilling goals and plans, resulting in serious consequences, resulting in significant economic losses

Embodiment Construction

[0097] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiment. The scope of the present invention is not limited by these examples, and the scope of the present invention is set forth in the claims.

[0098] In the following embodiments, curvature may also be used as a characteristic parameter.

[0099]Mathematically, the radius of curvature and the curvature are reciprocals of each other, and the unit of curvature at this time is rad / m. In drilling engineering, the commonly used units of borehole curvature are (°) / m, (°) / 30m, (°) / 100m, etc. At this time, the relationship between borehole curvature and curvature radius is:

[0100] R = 180 C κ πκ

[0101] In the formula:

[0102] κ—borehole curvature;

[0103] R—radius of curvature, m;

[0104] C κ ——Unit conversion factor, whose value is equal to the number in the c...

Abstract

The invention relates to well bore rail control and design that includes the process of determining well bore section shape, building equation set, expanding equation set, giving known parameters, and solving the equation set. It could meet the request of target intake direction and coordinate location, and could select 4 random feature parameters as the indeterminate parameters. The invention could improve drilling speed and wellbore quality, lower drilling cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the control and design of wellbore trajectory in oil drilling, in particular to the drilling-while-drilling design of the wellbore trajectory. Background technique [0002] With the development of directional drilling technology, the requirements for well trajectory control are getting higher and higher. During the drilling construction process, it is impossible to completely match the drilled well trajectory with the pre-designed well trajectory, and there will always be a certain deviation between the two. The goal of wellbore trajectory control is to control this deviation within the allowable range, so as to successfully drill to the geological target. [0003] If the deviation between the actual drilling trajectory and the design trajectory exceeds the allowable range, it is necessary to modify the design to make it return to the design trajectory or directly drill to the target point (or target area). In geosteering dri...
