摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for cleaning an oil and gas well riser section or assembly. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to an improved method and apparatus for cleaning oil and gas well riser sections wherein a specially configured cap or pair of caps are fitted to the ends of the riser which enable pressure washing cleaning tools (or a camera) to be inserted into and through the riser cleaner fluid continuously recirculates so that relatively small volume of cleaning fluid (for example between about 700 and 1,000 gallons) is required. The cleaning process uses a volume of cleaning fluid that is discharged from the riser pipe at a relatively high temperature of about between 100 and 180° F. Such a high temperature cleaning fluid could possibly damage the pump that is used for supplying pressurized fluid to the cleaning tool. The present invention provides a method and apparatus for enabling continuous recirculation of fluid to the cleaning tool at a flow rate of between about 7 and 12 gallons per minute while lowering the temperature to about 60° F.

A drill pipe screen transporter device rotatably couples a drill pipe screen to a transporter for its insertion and/or extraction into and out of a derrick assembly. A first plate assembly has a first base plate; and first and second spacer plates have arcuate notches for engaging the transporter. U-shaped bolts secure the first plate assembly to the transporter. A second plate assembly rotatably connected to the first plate assembly, has an aperture for supporting the screen. A collar assembly, spacer collar and pivot pin rotatably attach the second base plate to the first base plate for rotation of the screen relative to the transporter. A swivel stopper engages the first base plate of the first plate assembly when the second plate assembly is rotated a predetermined amount. A counterweight located opposite to the swivel stopper returns the second plate assembly to its initial horizontal positioning.

In the auger cleaning device (8) according to the invention, in the closed configuration the tool-holder support forms a pass-through opening (82) arranged for allowing the passage of a helical drilling tool (6), the cleaning tool (170) engaging with the screw of the drilling tool (6) and, actuated by the actuation system (12, 12′,12″, 4), is arranged for rotating around the drilling tool (6) following at least one of its threads (60) so as to remove the debris lying on the drilling tool (6). In the open configuration the cleaning tool (170) is disengaged from the drilling tool (6) and preferably farther from it, with respect to when it is in the closed configuration.

Described herein is a pipe cleaning apparatus of relatively uncomplicated construction. The apparatus includes a pipe support assembly having a number of cradles for supporting oilfield pipe. The cradles are positioned side-by-side with one pair of cradles supporting the opposite ends of each pipe. A number of lances are positioned side-by-side and are adapted to simultaneously penetrate the oilfield pipe in the pipe support. A mill is affixed to the free end of one of the lances. An air-driven tube cleaner is affixed to the free end of another one of the lances. A water jet nozzle is affixed to the free end of still another one of the lances.

Drill bits are provided. The drill bits are of the fixed-cutter, rotary-type. The drill bits have a plurality of blades having cutting elements disposed therealong. Junk slots are formed between the respective blades. A knife opening is formed in at least two of the junk slots. Preferably, the knife openings are disposed substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the drill bit. The drill bit also has one or more ribbon cutters. The ribbon cutters cyclically protrude through knife openings in the junk slots in order to facilitate the fragmentation of cuttings ribbons moving through the junk slots during a drilling operation.

A landing sub for a wiper, the wiper being adapted for internal removal of drilling mud from a drill string during its pull-out from a borehole, wherein the landing sub is mountable in the drill string, the landing sub comprises a longitudinal bore for through-flow of drilling mud and a landing seat for receiving the lower end of the wiper during pumping of drilling mud through the drill string, and the landing seat is equipped with at least one duct or passage for through-flow of drilling mud past the lower end of the wiper during continued pumping of drilling mud in the drill string.
摘要:
A drilling apparatus having cuttings removal structure to reduce balling thereof and to help prevent the accretion of portions of chips and debris from drilling thereon and/or the accretion of portions of drilling fluids thereon. The drilling apparatus comprises an apparatus body having a connection thereon and structure for contacting cut portions of the earth formation. The contacting structure may include chip breakers and flails or combinations thereof.

A toothed tool body for a rotary drilling tool suitable not only for work normally performed with toothed roller bits or the like, but also advantageous in loamy or similar formations, has ribs extending peripherally between the teeth up to the tooth flanks and having a cross-section falling on both sides from a peak region, more particularly a roof-like cross-section. The peak region of the ribs is lower than the tips or edges of the teeth in the radial direction of the tool body.
