Abstract:

Aiming to solve problems like difficulty in low efficiency in opening the window and ill adaptability of conventional
sidetracking tools,we developed a new type of fast and efficient bifurcation and pilot type sidetracking tools,using“hard to
hard”design idea,an implementing new technologies of dual-angle superhard compound bevel guide,double cutting edge and
strong lateral cutting ability of sidetracking bit,and triplex-cylinder linkage pressurized and non-cyclical packer. In the cutting
process,greatly reduced the extent of damage to whipstock,enhanced the adaptability and reliability of intermittent cutting
conditions caused by the asymmetry,non-stability and the form-randomness,effectively improved the bifurcation angle,and
applied it to be successful in the Wen25Ce61 well. At the same time,the window formation mechanism of the dual cased hole
was done,and static and dynamic simulation were made. On this basis,further we elaborated technical methods to achieve
efficient dual casing sidetrack. This research is hoped to have great significance to the future development of the sidetrack
market.
