AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology allows for better control over how much force or torque needs to be applied during drilling operations by reducing resistance when connecting to a drill string. It also includes features like absorbing excessive hydraulic impacts caused by fluctuations in pumping speed (the amount of fluid being lifted) while still allowing for efficient use of space within the borehole's casings. Additionally, this design helps improve efficiency through utilization of gravity forces acting upon the driller's equipment.

Problems solved by technology

This patented describes an improved way to manage the pressure inside the borehole when performing controlled pressure drills (CPWD). By controlling the amount of liquid injected or recovered with enough volume per unit area, the risk of damage due to excessive pressures becomes less than traditional methods like hydraulic fracturing techniques. Additionally, the proposed solution involves developing tools capable of maintaining stable annuli without losing too much weight on bit face.

Embodiment Construction

[0021] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Such as Figure 1~3 As shown, the present invention proposes a pressure-reducing nipple 100 for controlling wellbore annular pressure, which includes a shell 1, and a cylindrical support wall 2 is fixed inside the shell 1, A fixed shaft 3 is provided, which is arranged on the axis of the support wall 2 . A power impeller 4 is respectively connected to the two ends of the fixed shaft 3. The outer edge of the power impeller 4 is an outer ring gear. A step-down impeller 6 is arranged for rotation, and the inner edge of the step-down impeller 6 is an inner ring gear, and the inner ring gear meshes with the transmission gear 5 .

[0023] Further, the casing 1 includes an upper cover 11 , a lower cover 12 and an outer side wall 13 , and the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 12 are welded to two ends of the outer side wall 13 respectively. The fixed
