Steering resistance calculation and safety evaluation of titanium alloy pipe in radial drilling of ultra-deep well

In order to solve the problems of low strength of the pipe string and inability to transmit the weight on bit during the radial drilling operation in deep wells of 6000 m and above in Tahe Oilfield,a radial drilling technology using workover rigs,oil pipes and titanium alloy pipes was proposed.The unidirectional curved steering track with straightening section was optimized through numerical simulation,and the influence of track steering radius,outer diameter and wall thickness of titanium alloy pipe,clearance between track and pipe string on the drilling capacity was studied.Through the orthogonal experiment method,the sensitivity analysis on the above parameters and the parameter optimization were conducted.The results showed that the track steering radius and the clearance were inversely proportional to the steering resistance,while the outer diameter and wall thickness of the titanium alloy pipe were positively proportional to the steering resistance.The combined parameters of the titanium alloy pipe and steering gear track were recommended as follows:the track steering radius was 600 mm,the steering angle was 30°,the outer diameter of the titanium alloy pipe was 25 mm,the wall thickness was 2 mm,and the clearance between the titanium alloy pipe and steering gear track was 4 mm.
