In early December, the renovation of the cleaning gun nozzle of the high-pressure hot water cleaning machine equipment of Sichuan West Sichuan Drilling Company of Sichuan Qing Drilling Company was fully completed and officially put into use.
In drilling production, drilling fluid and other operating fluids will exhibit varying degrees of scaling after contact with the inner wall of the drilling tool. If the drilling tool is not cleaned before flaw detection, it will increase the difficulty and cost of flaw detection and reduce the accuracy and reliability of detection. Therefore, drilling tool water hole cleaning is a necessary process before drilling tool flaw detection.
For a long time, due to the environmental constraints of drilling tool cleaning work, when workers use high-pressure hot water cleaning equipment to clean drilling tools, they can only use a spray gun to clean the dirt in the water hole at the joint end of the drilling tool, but the dirt in the water hole in the middle part of the drilling tool The dirt still cannot be completely cleaned.
In order to solve this problem, the company's employees consulted information on the Internet, conducted repeated tests on site, and studied modification plans. Finally, a high-pressure dredging nozzle with a volume of only 36 square centimeters was connected to a 10-meter-long high-pressure hose to modify the cleaning nozzle. The modified cleaning nozzle can not only easily enter any position in the water hole of the drilling tool, effectively break the blockage and clean the dirt on the inner wall of the water hole of the drilling tool, but also, driven by the strong kinetic energy of the high-pressure water flow, the dirt can be quickly removed from the water hole of the drilling tool. eye to further improve the cleaning efficiency of the drilling tool water hole and ensure the smooth flow of the drilling tool water hole.
The renovation cost only 93 yuan, but the success rate of cleaning water holes in drilling tools reached 100%, making the cleaning of water holes in drilling tools more efficient and safer.
"The low cost and good effect are really rare!" Zhang Chuansheng, a veteran employee who has been working in drilling tool maintenance for more than 30 years, praised after trying out the equipment.
In the next step, the company will continue to extend technological innovation into daily production management, discover and solve problems from the subtle aspects of the production line, and ensure that quality and efficiency improvement work achieves effective results.
