    摘要: Apparatus for coupling multi-conduit drill pipes to maintain arcuate registry between connected pipes, and for transferring the drive torque of one drill pipe to the next drill pipe. One end of one drill pipe (50) includes drive lugs (100) matable with corresponding drive recesses (102) in the end of the next drill pipe (52). An index lug (104) in the drill pipe end, different that the drive lugs (100), is matable with a corresponding index recess (106) in another pipe end ot maintain arcuate registry of the coupled pipes and thus longitudinal alignment of the respective conduits (30) throughout the drill string. An internally threaded coupling collar (84) with different thread pitches at each end thereof is threadable onto the joined lug and recess mated drill pipe ends to hold the pipes mated. The joined pipe ends respectively include external threads (88, 90) of pitches corresponding to that of the coupling collar (84) so that a differential thread action draws the pipes together. A seal (86) is provided between the pipe ends so that when compressed by rotation of the coupling collar (84) each conduit (30, 62) is sealed from adjacent conduits.

    摘要: A system and method for storage of Greenhouse Gasses, in particular CO2 gasses, in an underground reservoir of rock at the shallowest depth necessary to achieve a combination of temperature and pressure sufficient to ensure that the reservoir is hydraulically sealed and isolated. Particle Jet Drilling is utilized to afford an economical process of drilling the necessary deep well bores to reach the deep rock formations. The underground reservoirs are formed through hydraulic dilation of existing joints in the rock formations.

    摘要: A multi-conduit tubular having fluid conduits (30) and electrical conduits (108), with associated surface fluid (182) and electrical (186) commutators, and downhole sensors (18, 20, 290) for providing surface monitors (22) with instantaneous formation data. Each tubular (50) includes a plurality of uniform linear conduits (30) therethrough, with a gasketed seal plate (86) interposed between joined tubulars for assuring a high pressure seal between joined conduits. The seal plate (86) includes an intermediate electrical connector (126) for connecting electrical conduit connectors (116) of one tubular to another. A coupling collar (84) with uniform diameter internal coarse and fine threads (92, 94) joins the tubular ends having similar threads by differential thread action without respective tubular rotation. Each tubular end further includes an interengaging index recess and index lug (106, 104), and drive recesses and lugs (102, 100) for maintaining angular registry of the tubular string and for driving one drill tubular with another. A fluid commutator (182) includes a rotating shaft with passages (204, 206) connected to the tubular conduits, and rotating in a manifold (198) having annular grooves (234, 236) in communication with the shaft passages (204, 206) and external fluid sources. An adaptor (184) couples each commutator shaft passage (204, 206) to one or more tubular conduits. Slip rings (264-270) on a quill shaft (178) and stationary brush means (272-278) provide electrical continuity from the electrical conduit wires (110) to surface equipment. A cross-over sub (286) includes formation parameter sensors (18, 20, 290) and telemetry equipment (292) in a blocked off portion of a fluid conduit. An annular accumulator (46) connected with the wellbore annulus (44) applies a pressure thereto in response to downhole sensors to change the effective density of the drill mud. The multi-conduit tubular (366) is further adapted for use as a well casing to provide downhole access of a plurality of fluids and electrical parameter sensors (424).
