    Abstract: The disclosure belongs to the technical field of well completion engineering in oil and gas engineering, and particularly relates to a high-flow-conductivity proppant and its preparation method. The high-flow-conductivity proppant includes dumbbell-shaped framework granules and an oil-soluble film coating layer coated on the surfaces of the framework granules; the oil-soluble film coating layer melts when meeting oil at the temperature of 30-120° C. The high-flow-conductivity proppant prepared by the method has low bulk density, and the problems that the traditional proppant cannot be transported to the far end of a crack, has poor flow conductivity and the like can be effectively solved.

    Abstract: The disclosure concerns oil drilling technology, and specifically an all-metal intelligent control motor (AMIM). The AMIM comprises an electric control module, a power module and a transmission module. The electric control module determines the axial position of the connecting rod valve through an electromagnet and controls the connection between the connecting rod valve and the piston through an electric motor. The hydraulic pressure of drilling fluid and the spring reaction force in the power module push a double worm to move axially and circumferentially under the action of internal teeth on the inner surface of shell. A one-way bearing ensures that the power module only transmits unidirectional motion. The transmission module axially limits the power module through TC bearings and transmits circumferential motion, drilling pressure and torque to the lower drilling tool. The AMIM is suitable for all kinds of deep well exploration, with a stronger drilling force, a lower cost and a higher applicability.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses an active intelligent wellbore pressure control system, which includes a ground multi-parameter online monitoring system (86), a rotary blowout preventer (1), a wellhead back pressure compensation manifold, an automatic plugging material filling device (62), a drilling device, an MPD intelligent control system (87), a remote monitoring and control system (88), and a high-precision hydraulic calculation system (105). The present invention provides a wellbore pressure control thought of “plugging and control integration”, improves the pressure resistance of a formation by circularly plugging while drilling, realizes active control of a wellbore pressure, effectively broadens a “drilling safety density window” of the formation, reduces the requirements on the pressure control precision of a wellbore pressure control device, solves the problem that a conventional MPD technology cannot deal with the situation that the “drilling safety density window” of the formation is extremely narrow or even zero, and expands the application range of the MPD technology.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a calculation method for a mobile fluid saturation after reservoir fracturing based on netting analysis, including: performing a fracturing experiment and micro-computed tomography (CT) experiment designs before and after fracturing; dividing a pore development area and a dense area; comparing micro-CT scanning experimental images of the same reservoir core sample before and after fracturing, and dividing a fracture network formed after fracturing; analyzing the propagation of fracturing fractures by netting analysis; determining a porosity of fracturing reconstruction; further determining a mobile fluid saturation after fracturing; and combining with a logging curve to realize the continuous calculation of mobile fluid saturation after fracturing. According to the present disclosure, on the basis of micro-CT scanning data before and after fracturing, the mobile fluid saturation after fracturing is quantitatively calculated by netting analysis and logging curves to cause the evaluation of the mobile fluid saturation after fracturing to be more accurate.

    Abstract: A valve-controlled high-energy hydrostatic down-the-hole (DTH) impact hammer is provided, including an upper joint, a shell, a drainage device, an upper fixed valve sleeve, a lower fixed valve sleeve, a main valve, a piston hammer, a supporting sleeve, a sealing piston, a guiding sleeve, a stop ring, a fixing casing pipe, and a drilling bit. The impact hammer is internally defined with a first chamber, a second chamber, a third chamber and a pressure relief chamber. The first chamber is responsible for providing drilling fluid to move the piston hammer up and down by realizing the pressure change of the drilling fluid in the second and third chambers through the holes and flow channels in the upper and lower fixed valve sleeves. The impact hammer transfers the main pressure relief mode from the axis of the impact hammer to the pressure relief chamber between the supporting sleeve and the shell.
