This device relates to the fields of mining, specifically oil and
gas industry, hydro-geological, geological
engineering and
water supply industries and is intended for
cutting slot-shaped seats in well side zones of producing formation by hydro-
abrasive blast. The determined task is solved by introducing essential changes into the known device for construction of
cutting slot-shaped seats from the well wall inside the rock consisting of the hydro-
abrasive jet generator connected with the perforator through the pump-and-compressor tubing string; the perforator is put into the casing
pipe and has two diametrical nozzles which are directed at the well wall; there is a
ball valve at the perforator end, as well as devices for adjustable partial unloading of PCS, PCS weight measuring device,
abrasive jet pressure measuring device and the sealer for sealing of
wellhead. The changes are as follows:—The perforator is directly connected with PCS;—A pin mounted under the perforator with possible axial movements is introduced;—A cylindrical
retainer washer is put on the upper part of the perforator above nozzles; the
washer is fixed so as to permit axial movement;—PCS indexing mechanism, step rings and a
tripping muff are mounted bottom up and in alignment on the lower tube of PCS which is in series connected with the perforator;—At the same time the pin is connected with the cylindrical
washer situated on the upper part of the perforator by control-rods with possible axial movement;—The indexing mechanism is put on PCS with the possibility of fixed
coupling of its body with the casing
pipe wall and split engagement of its body by step rings. Step rings are to be rigidly fixed on the lower PCS tube, and the
tripping muff-on the PPS with its skirt down. At least a couple of rotary fluke-claws, with one end of each hingedly connected with the body of indexing mechanism, and the other end clasped to the casing
pipe wall by spacer springs mounted between the indexing mechanism body and the fluke-flaw end, can be a variant of engagement of the indexing mechanism body with the casing pipe wall. At least a couple of spring-mounted pins installed on the interior surface of the indexing device body can be a variant of split engagement of the indexing mechanism by step rings. At that the pin heads are of round shape at the contacting end set against PCS. A muff with conical inside surface and the exterior of streamlined form can be a variant of
tripping muff for forced tripping of the indexing mechanism from the casing pipe wall. The optimum distance between the step rings equals to one drain port
diameter D±5%, and the number of rings has to amount to prescribed length of the slot-shaped seat divided by the drain port
diameter D. At the same time adjacent drainage canals will unite and form a single slot-shaped seat. The recommended force for
coupling of the
split pin heads with PCS lies within the limits of 10-20% of PCS weight. The recommended force for
coupling of the indexing device body with the casing pipe wall is in the range from 30% of PCS weight up to
breaking strength point of the casing pipe.
