Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of blowout preventers, in particular to an eccentric rotation following sealing device of a rotary blowout preventer.

Background

In the current field of oil drilling and exploitation, a rotary blowout preventer must be installed and used at a drilling wellhead to implement underbalance (gas phase and liquid phase) and air pressure drilling operation. The rotary seal core component of the rotary blowout preventer mainly comprises a rotary mandrel, a rotary seal assembly and a fixed shell, wherein the rotary seal assembly between the rotary mandrel and the fixed shell is a key component for ensuring the service life and the reliability of the rotary blowout preventer. In the drilling process, once the rotary sealing assembly of the rotary blowout preventer fails, the rotary blowout preventer and the rotary sealing assembly thereof must be stopped immediately to replace, which wastes drilling time and increases safety risks in the drilling process.

At present, in a drilling operation site, due to wellhead eccentricity and transverse irregular vibration of a drilling tool, instantaneous large eccentric gaps are easy to occur between rotating parts and non-rotating parts of the rotary blowout preventer, and when the gaps exceed the elastic medium sealing compensation range of the rotary sealing assembly, the rotary sealing assembly at the position of a rotating shaft is subjected to sealing failure. The known prior rotary sealing technology generally adopts wear-resistant sealing materials, and presses a lip edge of a rotary sealing assembly by means of elastic compression force of a supporting part such as rubber or a metal spring to compensate a gap between the rotary sealing assembly and a rotating shaft in the rotating process due to abrasion; meanwhile, in the use process, along with the continuous abrasion of the rotating seal contact surface, before the sealing lip is not completely abraded, the elasticity of the supporting elastic medium cannot achieve the expected compensation effect, so that the leakage of the seal is caused, and the service life of the seal is influenced. A dynamic sealing device for a rotary blowout preventer, which is disclosed in Chinese patent publication No. CN201110382073.8, published as 2012, 2 and 29, has the technical scheme that a support ring is arranged in a packing box, an oil hole b and an oil hole c are arranged on the support ring, and an annular groove b is arranged on the outer surface of the support ring; the disc spring is arranged in the supporting ring, the lower part of the disc spring is provided with a spacing ring, and the supporting ring is arranged between the spacing ring and the pressing ring; the pressing ring is provided with an oil hole a, and the lower part of the pressing ring is sequentially provided with a V-shaped sealing ring and a space ring at intervals; the lower end of the floating ring is provided with a packing pressing ring which is fixed at the end part of a packing box, and the packing pressing ring is in clearance fit with the central pipe bush; the central pipe bush is in interference fit with the central pipe, the packing box is in interference fit with the upper shell of the blowout preventer, and lubricating oil enters the oil hole of the upper shell of the blowout preventer through the bearing. The device reduces the abrasion of the surface of the sealing element and reduces the self heating of the sealing element by adopting a combined sealing structure so as to prolong the service life of the sealing element, but the sealing surface clearance is still performed by adopting elastic material to elastically deform and press the lip edge of the sealing element, so that the problem cannot be avoided in the using process.
