    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an impact simulation device and simulation method for characteristics of a rock chip bed in a large displacement well. The device comprises a wellbore system, a drilling fluid circulation system, a rock chip transportation system, a drill pipe control system, a data acquisition system, and a data processing system. The wellbore system is configured to simulate a horizontal annulus environment for rock chip transportation during drilling. The drilling fluid circulation system is configured to provide drilling fluid to the wellbore system and collect flow data of the drilling fluid. The rock chip transportation system is configured to simulate an output of rock chips in the horizontal annulus environment during drilling and recover the rock chips. The drill pipe control system is configured to implement drilling simulation in the wellbore system. The data acquisition system is configured to collect monitoring data during the drilling simulation and to transmit the monitoring data to the data processing system. The data processing system is configured to determine ECD correction parameters based on the monitoring data.

    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: A multi-slug staged method for plugging a fractured formation includes: determining an average opening of fractures around a well as D, an average particle size of bridging particles for first-stage plugging as D1 that is slightly less than D, and average particle sizes of plugging particles for second to last-stage plugging as D2-Dn, where Dn is small enough to form a tight plugging layer; and sequentially injecting a plugging slurry only containing the bridging particles having the average particle size of D1, plugging slurries containing the plugging particles having the average particle sizes of D2-Dn-1, and a plugging slurry containing the plugging particles having the average particle size of Dn into the fractures to achieve the fractured formation plugging.

    Abstract: A torque-adaptive impact tool suitable for a PDC (Polycrystalline Diamond Compact) bit is provided, which includes a PDC bit, a rotary-driving power device, and a torque-adaptive impact tool above the PDC bit. The torque-adaptive impact tool is located between the PDC bit and the rotary-driving power device, includes an outer housing, an upper end cover, a main shaft, an elastic element, an upper impact body, and a lower impact body. In a case of a normal operation of the bit, the tool does not impact the bit, but rotates along with the rotary-driving power device for drilling. In a case that a rock-breaking torque required by the bit exceeds a driving torque, the tool impact the bit.
