According to the site topography and geological conditions, directional drilling through the construction plan, construction technical measures and other factors, comprehensive consideration:
The drilling equipment is constructed with gd380c-l horizontal directional drilling rig, which has a feed and drag force of 38 tons.The directional control system adopts the falcon wireless directional control instrument produced by DCI.Main machinery and equipment are shown in the following table:
List of machinery, equipment and main tools
If the directional drilling passes through the rock and soil, it needs an area of 20 square meters for construction and stacking, among which 20 square meters for drilling machine, mud mixing system, drilling materials and other stacking sites. The rest is used for temporary piling and abandoning of soil for future backfilling.A 0.5 m (width) by 1.2 m (depth) by 4 m (length) mud pit is dug in the pit to serve as a mud purification and treatment tank for the storage of mud and rainwater. A submersible pump is then used to timely discharge the slurry after treatment.The rig operation, materials and mixing system must be constructed with pipe frame to set up rainproof shed, and the operation area shall be enclosed by fencing.
1) Directional construction process
The main working procedures of the crossing project are: surveying and setting out, directional drilling and guiding hole construction, pipeline installation and welding, reexpanding and towing pipe and restoration of the original landform (party a shall be responsible for).
①Measurement pay-off
According to the coordinates of the entry point and unearthed point of the construction design drawing, the axis released by the total station instrument shall be 10 meters for each control point. The deviation Angle between left and right of the pipe spooler shall not exceed 20mm, and the error along the spooler shall not exceed 40mm.Meanwhile, the boundary line of the construction site and the excavation boundary line of the foundation groove at the entry point are released.
②Directional drilling
Drilling rig is installed in the grave, and unearthed point on the same axis, control error is less than 100 mm, drill the grave Angle for 25 °.The directional drilling machine is anchored with bolt.Put the main rig in place and connect the ground anchor box, mud system, drill pipe and power source for support, etc.Connect all kinds of hydraulic pipeline, mud pipeline and control cable.After all the equipment is assembled and carefully checked and confirmed, the equipment is put into trial operation: debug the drilling rig system, check whether all the dial indicators are normal, check whether all the operating handles are reset, adjust the direction control system, and store the measurement data in the computer;Debug mud system.
2) Guide hole construction
The construction of guide hole is the key of the whole project. The construction should be strictly according to the track design parameters and horizontal directional drilling pipeline laying engineering technical specifications.The selection of a 125mm guide bit, a 73mm reinforced drill pipe guide hole construction.
①The drilling tool combination of the drilling rig’s guide hole is: guide drill bit + direction controller + drill pipe, the transmitting rod inside the guide drill bit sends the signal to the ground direction controller, so as to grasp the direction and depth at any time.
②In the process of directional crossing construction, at any time according to the data provided by the monitor and the design of the rail change contrast, such as drilling rail change deviation, it is necessary to pull the drill pipe to drill again, or drilling correction in the opposite direction.Control data should be carefully handled during construction and drilling speed should be appropriately controlled.
③Directional drilling drilling curve should be carried out according to the crossing construction specifications and design curve requirements.The longitudinal deviation of the unearthed point along the design axis is no more than 1% of the crossing length and no more than 1m;The lateral deviation shall not be greater than 2% of the crossing length, and shall not be greater than 2m.
3) Reverse reaming
Guide hole, after the completion of the bit, chase installed back to the head are very back to enlarge, considering the through pipe length, cross the length (120 meters) long and complex formation, design finally back to enlarge Φ 400 mm in diameter.
4) Pull back the laying pipe
During drilling, pressure test is carried out by welding the pipe group that is towed back, welding the pull pipe lifting lug on the top of the pipe group welded, then connecting the pipe with the drill pipe in the hole through the joint and the reamer, and connecting the pipe back into the hole filled with mud.
5) Installation of backhaul pipeline
When welding the PE160mm rubber hose work pipe, the pipe should be arranged along the direction of crossing the axis and cannot form a certain Angle with the axis. After the bend of the work pipe, the friction between the rubber pipe and the ground and the groove wall will increase when the pipe is dragged, resulting in the pipeline cannot be dragged.
After the connection of the expanding bit is completed, send the mud to wash, check whether the mud nozzle is normal, and then carry out the backhaul after confirming that it is qualified. Use the backhaul power of the directional drilling machine to drag the drill pipe into the expanded drilling hole, and the backhaul construction should be carried out continuously.
Calculation of drag resistance: friction coefficient is 0.3~0.5.
The calculated drag resistance of pipeline in the process of backhaul: the minimum drag F group of a 300mm working pipe =2 tons, the maximum drag F=5 tons, less than the rig used in the construction of the backhaul force of 28 tons, so it can completely meet the requirements of the crossing work.
In the process of backhaul, slow backhaul should be carried out, and changes in backhaul force should be observed at the same time. If any abnormality is found, it should be stopped immediately, and then the next step can be carried out after finding out the cause.
6) The following measures shall be taken to prevent the corrosion layer from being damaged in the process of backhaul:
①During the pull back process, PE pipe end is welded on a steel plate, and then use the phi 250mm pull back expansion guide, put the nozzle back expansion center, ensure that the nozzle is located in the center of the hole.,
②Before the tube through repeated back expansion, and increase the speed of back expansion, without the detrital material in the hole, make the hole wall surface more smooth, reduce friction resistance, conducive to the work of the pipe back.
③The hole is filled with high quality drilling fluid, to achieve good lubrication, at the same time because the work pipe seal in the thick drilling fluid in suspension, which is beneficial to protect the PE anticorrosive layer.
7) Mud control
The mud mixing system of this drilling rig is adopted for mud mixing. Different mud is adopted for drilling in different strata.Mud meets sand stratum to be given priority to by splash soil mud in drilling, the most basic function of the mud is to maintain the stability of the hole wall, prevent the collapse of the empty wall, cool the drill bit, jet drilling and other functions, the mud is mainly composed of water, high-quality clay (bentonite), is a kind of harmless, meet the requirements of environmental protection mud material.
8) Mud treatment
Construction in accordance with national environmental requirements, do not use toxic and harmful and environmental pollution of raw materials construction.The mud discharged during construction can be discharged only after being treated with precipitation.
