The device includes a rod ending with a prolonging member containing a socklike member adapted to cap said drill string section and to contract under the effect of a longitudinal traction force applied thereto while raising said rod, thereby gripping the drill string section as a result of the friction force generated by said contraction.
f 00 t Ma PATENTEDncI 10 I972 wax SHEET 2 [IF 3 1114 1 DEVICE FOR GRIPPING ELONGATED MEMBERS This invention relates to a device for gripping an elongated member, particularly useful for withdrawing said member from a location where it is difficult to access.
In the following there will be referred, by way of non limitative example, to the fishing of a portion of drill string, e.g., formed of rigid drill stems used in rotary drilling, or a section of flexible pipe when drilling with a bottom motor suspended therefrom.
During drilling operations it may happen that a breakage of the drill string occurs. A lower portion of the drill string at the end of which is secured the drilling tool is thus lost in the well and it is practically impossible to restart the drilling operation as long as this lower portion of the drill string has not been removed.
It is thus necessary to conduct fishing operations for recovering the lower portion of the drill string. These operations are often difficult to carry out and are the more expensive as they also immobilize the drilling installation for a long time.
The fishing devices used up to now are very complex and require cutting off sections, on the portion of drill string to be recovered. This results in a further increase of the operation time and of its cost.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a simple device avoiding the above-mentioned disadvantages and which is efficient and easy to use.
A device according to the invention for gripping an elongated member wedged in a well, comprises: in combination, an an operating rod having one end which is adapted to be introduced into the well, a prolonging member for said rod at said end, said prolonging member being made solid with said rod and comprising internally a sock-like member or sock formed of a netting of wires, metal cables or strands, the two ends of said sock being respectively secured on said prolonging member and on said operating rod, said sock being adapted to cap the elongated member, means for disengaging said prolonging member from said operating rod and means for constricting said sock on the elongated member for ensuring the gripping thereof. The means for disengaging using relative axial displacement of the prolonging member and the operating rod for carrying out its function.
The invention will be better understood and further advantages thereof made apparent from the following description of a non-limitative embodiment illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein FIGS. 1 A and 1 B respectively illustrate the upper and the lower portion of the device; and
FIGS. 2 A, 2 B, 3 A and 3 B illustrate the operation of the device.
On FIGS. 1 A and 1 B the device according to the invention is indicated as a whole by reference 1. This device comprises a member in prolongation of an operating rod 14, formed in this embodiment of a very long tubular member 2 at the end of which is secured another tubular member 3 carrying the drilling tool 4 of the crown type. At the upper part of member 2 and above a shoulder l l is slidably mounted a hollow piston 5. Piston 5 is made solid with member 2, in the position shown in FIG. 1 A, through fingers 6 in engagement with orifices 7 provided in member 2.
In its uppermost position (FIG. 1 A) the sleeve 9 comes in abutment against the operating rod 14. This rod 14 from which is suspended the device 1 is made solid with piston 5, through a threaded connection.
At the lower part of piston 5 is anchored, by any convenient means, a sheath or sock-like member 15. This sock-like member is formed of a netting of wires, cables or strands. When this sock is not subjected to any axial tensile stress, it has an external diameter equal to the internal diameter of tubular member 2. This sock member 15 has an internal diameter greater than the external diameter of the drill string 16 to be withdrawn from the well. This sock-like member 15 is anchored at its lower part on tubular member 3. The weaving of this sock-like member is such that a very substantial decrease of its diameter is obtained when it is subjected to axial tensile stresses.
A centering device 17 comprising at its upper part a frusto-conical element is maintained in member 3 by means of shear pins 18.
When after breaking of the drill string it is desired to recover the lower part 16 thereof remaining in the well 19, the operation is as follows.
The device 1 is introduced, while driven in rotation through the rod 14, into the well 19. The tool 4 bores a hole of the well enabling the device 1 to cap the drill string 16. During this stage of the process the drilling fluid circulates through the central duct of pipe 14, as indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 1 A and 1 B. This fluid irrigates the drilling tool 4, thus making easier its boring action.
In the case where the drill string 16 is a flexible pipe formed of a tubular core coated with a plurality of metal armourings, the guiding member 17 makes it possible to compress, at the level of the breaking, the armourings which might deviate from the drill string axis while protecting the sock-like member 15 against any deterioration.
When device 1 is in the position shown in FIGS. 1 A and 1 B a ball 22 is introduced into the bore of pipe 14. As it is apparent in FIG. 2 A, this ball comes to abutment on a seat arranged therefor in the hole of sleeve 9 and interrupts any circulation of drilling fluid.
An increase of the drilling fluid pressure then produces a lowering of sleeve 9 in the hole of piston 5 (FIG. 2 A) against the counter action of elastic return means such as spring 12. This movement is continued until the recess 13 registers with fingers 6. In this position, shown in FIG. 2 A, the fingers 6 which maintained the piston 5 solid with the tubular member 2 are disengaged from the latter by the action of repelling means such as the return springs 8 and by engagement into recess 13 make piston 5 solid with sleeve 9. The port holes or conduits a then register with conduits 10 thus establishing communication between the hole of sleeve 9 and the annular space 20. The drilling fluid than flows to said annular space 20 through port holes 10a and conduits 10 as shown by the arrow in FIG. 2 A.
The tubular member 2 and the piston 5 being no longer solid with each other as already stated, the drilling fluid pressure produces a lowering of member 2 with respect to piston 5. This movement, favored by the own weight of member 2, results in the shearing of the shear pins 18 on the one hand andin the lengthening of the sock-like member surrounding the drill string 16, on the other hand.
As shown in FIGS. 3 A and 3 B, the lengthening of the sock-like member 15 results in a very strong constriction being favored by the circulation of drilling fluid in the direction shown by the arrows in FIGS. 3 A and 3 B.
After the sock-like member has been placed and gripped onto the drill string 16 the latter is withdrawn by raising the rod 14, which is solidly threaded with piston 5, thereby increasing the tensile stress exerted on the sock-like member and increasing the constriction thereof onto the drill string 16.
The wires, cables or strands of the sock like member may be selected of a sufficient hardness so that under the effect of the tensile stress they become sealed in the external wall of the drill string 16. The sock-like member length in contact with the drill string 16 must be sufficient (in most cases in excess of approximately 10 yards) for resulting in a total friction force of the cable strands of the socklike member on the drill string to compensate the weight of the portion thereof which has to be withdrawn from the well.
