Abstract:
A method for offshore dual-drive core drilling with three layers of casings under surge compensation is provided. According to the method, a drilling vessel is located at set latitude and longitude coordinates by a dynamic positioning system; drill pipes are stabilized by a seabed template; torques and drilling pressures can be transmitted during drilling of the casings by means of surge compensation of the casings at a wellhead; during drilling for sampling, the surge compensation can compensate to a certain extent for a change in water depth caused by rising or falling tides, or surge, thereby preventing the casings from colliding with equipment and ensuring the safety of wellhead operation; and the drilling of three layers of casings is achieved by means of dual driver heads to effectively protect a wellbore wall, such that high core-drilling rate and good core-drilling quality are achieved during drilling for sampling.
