Background
The control of the exploitation cost is always a target pursued by the drilling of oil and gas, along with the development of unconventional oil and gas fields, the requirement on drilling equipment is higher and higher, and an automatic and intelligent efficient drilling technology becomes a mainstream technology for reducing the cost and improving the efficiency; in addition, drilling techniques have a number of applications in the fields of geological engineering and mineral development.
The Rotary Steerable drilling technology is the most representative and advanced drilling technology in the world at present, and Rotary Steerable Systems (RSS) are divided into the following four types according to the working mode of a downhole tool system: static bias push, dynamic bias push, static bias directional, and dynamic bias directional. The guide actuating mechanisms of the static bias push-type rotary guide and the static bias pointing-type rotary guide do not rotate along with the drill column, and are easy to encounter a clamping group; the guide actuating mechanism of the dynamic offset rotary guide is complex, the build rate is difficult to improve, and the trafficability in a high-curvature well is poor.
Sidetrack drilling a branch well at any position in the existing main well bore by using a short-extremely short radius, and then continuously extending the branch well bore in a direction different from the well axis of the main well bore or enabling the well bore to extend towards a direction different from the well axis of the main well bore by using a short-extremely short radius deflecting technology at the tail end of the existing well bore; generally speaking, the scale range of the extremely short radius is a meter range, the range of the short radius is 10-60 meters, the minimum turning radius of the deflecting section of the extremely short radius well is less than 10 meters, and the extremely short radius well drilling comprises the steps of realizing the drilling of the high-curvature well section with the turning radius of less than 10 meters and/or continuing the well drilling operation through the high-curvature well section with the turning radius of less than 1 meter so as to complete the extended well section.
The prior coiled tubing transmission elbow joint screw motor can realize sidetrack drilling with controllable medium and short radiuses, but the directional mode is sliding guide, the whole drill column does not rotate, the screw rod is driven by the drilling circulating medium to drive the drill bit to rotate, the well deviation and the azimuth performance of the drilling tool are changed through the change of the face angle of the tool of the elbow joint, the limitations that the drilling tool does not rotate during the directional operation, the short-radius directional drilling operation cannot be completed and the like exist, the precision of the well track is poor, and because the coiled tubing has the inherent disadvantages of non-rotation, low strength and the like, the tubing string is easy to break and fracture, is not suitable for bearing high torque, and the diameter of the drilled borehole is too small, the basic requirement of oil-gas reservoir development on the flow guiding capacity of an oil-gas well can not be met, so the coiled tubing can hardly be used for short-radius lateral drilling, and is even less operable in ultra-short radius and ultra-short radius lateral drilling applications where the turn radius is less than 10 meters.
Another method for realizing short-extremely short radius lateral drilling is to realize short-extremely short radius lateral drilling by driving a drill bit to drill through a flexible drill rod, namely, a single section of short drill rod with the length less than 1.5 meters is adopted to be connected with a flexible drill column in series, tension is transmitted between adjacent short drill rods through a ball head and a ball bowl, torque is transmitted through a spline arranged between the ball head and the ball bowl, and the drill bit at the bottom is driven to rotate through the flexible drill column to realize rock breaking; the method can realize short-extremely short radius sidetracking by means of the deflecting action of the whipstock, however, the method cannot realize borehole trajectory control and obtain a borehole trajectory with certain precision in the borehole extension process, the borehole is seriously bent, the drilling of a drill bit is hindered, and the uncontrollable distorted borehole trajectory is difficult to meet the field requirement.

According to the combined type guiding drilling tool, the driving hydraulic cylinder 21 is arranged between the force transmission cylinder 1 and the bearing body 2, so that the size of rotary guiding is greatly reduced, and rotary guiding can be accurately controlled, so that the trafficability of the combined type rotary guiding tool in a high-curvature well bore can be improved, and the combined type rotary guiding drilling tool can be used for drilling a short-extremely short-radius well section laterally through the bottom of a main well bore or any other position so as to continuously drill the short-extremely short-radius well section laterally, and further realize extension of a controllable track.
Furthermore, the outer peripheral surface of the force transmission cylinder 1 is circumferentially connected with a plurality of first centralizers 11 arranged at intervals, the force transmission cylinder 1 can drive the first centralizers 11 to abut against the well wall, and the distance between the force transmission point of the force transmission cylinder 1 for transmitting thrust to the well wall and the drill bit 4 can be reduced by changing the position of the first centralizers 11, so that the phenomenon that the diameter expansion interference at the rear part of the drill bit 4 is overcome to drive the piston structure 212 for transmitting the pushing force to the well wall is facilitated.
Further, combined type direction drilling tool still includes drive drill string 6, drive drill string 6 includes a plurality of transmission nipple joints 61 that from top to bottom articulate in proper order, transmission nipple joint 61 is used for assuming the moment of torsion, the inside of each transmission nipple joint 61 all is equipped with perforating hole 611, a plurality of perforating holes 611 communicate in proper order and form the through flow channel 62 that is used for the circulation of drilling circulation medium, through flow channel 62 forms the mainstream canal that supplies the circulation of drilling circulation medium to realize the circulation of drilling circulation medium in the drive drill string 6, be located the transmission nipple joint 61 of the below and the upper end fixed connection of biography power tube 1, or, be located the transmission nipple joint 61 of the below and the upper end fixed connection who bears body 2, so that drive drill string 6 can be for the power of the rotatory drilling of drill bit 4 transmission.
In use, the driving drill string 6 is guided in a rotating state in the short-radius borehole, and under the condition that the driving drill string 6 is generally rotating in the directional drilling process, the main force component of the friction force is the circumferential tangential direction of the driving drill string 6, so that the axial friction force is greatly reduced, and the track control in the short-radius borehole is realized.
It should be noted that the sum of the lengths of the short-extremely short radius well sections that can be drilled by the composite pilot drilling tool does not exceed the sum of the lengths of the drill bit 4, the pilot sub and the drive string 6.
Further, the deflection angle between two adjacent transmission short joints 61 is 0.5-8 degrees to prevent each transmission short joint 61 from excessively bending in the transmission process of the weight-on-bit torque so as to hinder the transmission of the weight-on-bit torque, and when the corner between two adjacent transmission short joints 61 reaches the deflection limit, the minimum curvature radius formed by the lateral drilling section should be larger than or equal to the preset short-extremely short radius well section.
Furthermore, at least one universal joint 63 capable of transmitting rotary drilling power is arranged inside the transmission short section 61, the distance between two adjacent universal joints 63 is less than 1m, so that the section from the drill bit 4 to the uppermost transmission short section 61 can reach enough curvature to complete short-radius well drilling, and deflection is realized to the maximum extent, in addition, under the condition of the same deflecting performance or the same high-curvature well bore trafficability, the length of each transmission short section 61 is shortened, namely the distance between two deflection points is shortened, the deflection limit of each deflection point short section can be reduced, so that the effects of protecting the transmission short section 61 from being damaged and reducing downhole vibration are achieved, and particularly the universal joint 63 used for transmitting rotary drilling power in the transmission short section 61 is protected from being damaged.
Generally, the distance between two adjacent universal joints 63 is less than 0.4 meter, so that the guide short joint can pass through the short-extremely short radius well section and then complete the drilling of the extended well section of the short-extremely short radius well section; the purpose of limiting the distance between the individual universal joints 63 driving the drill string 6 is to: the transmission short joints 61 are prevented from excessively buckling in the process of transmitting the weight-on-bit torque, so that the transmission of the weight-on-bit torque is prevented, and the driving drill string 6 is prevented from excessively buckling to interfere with the guide short joint to control the track of the well; it should be noted that, in the process of drilling a short-radius extended well section, the driving drill string 6 always has a small section located in the short-very short-radius well section, so that the drilling tool is excessively bent if the preset deflection limit angle between two adjacent driving short joints 61 is too large, which affects the high-throughput guidance execution device to control the well track, and the preset deflection limit angle is too small, which results in the problem that the drilling tool cannot smoothly pass through the short-very short-radius well section, generally, in order to further increase the stability of the transmission of the weight-on-bit torque and improve the power transmission efficiency of the rotary drilling, the deflection angle between the driving short joints 61 should be controlled within 3 °.

Or the universal joint 63 is a constant velocity universal joint 63 to avoid the rotating speed inconsistency of the power input end and the power output end, and prevent the rotating speed fluctuation of the output end of the driving drill string 6 from causing adverse effects on the guiding precision of the guiding nipple.
Of course, the universal joint 63 may be any other conventional structure capable of transmitting torque, for example, the ball 631 and the socket 632 may be engaged with each other by a spline or a spline.
Further, the minimum distance between the deflection centers of two adjacent transmission short joints 61 is less than 5 times of the diameter of the drill bit 4, the distance between each hinge point can be reduced, and when the driving drill string 6 vibrates, an overlong force arm cannot be formed at two ends of each hinge point, so that the hinge point is broken.
