Main functions and tasks of the Spiral Vane Calibrator:
Well calibration:
The calibrator is used to equalize the borehole diameter at different depths, which is important to ensure normal installation of casing, as well as to prepare for further operations in the drilling process.
Well Wall Expansion:
When necessary, CLS helps to enlarge the borehole diameter for subsequent operations such as installing casing or other tubular systems.
Contamination removal:
The calibrator effectively cleans the borehole walls of drill cuttings, rust and other contaminants that may be left behind during drilling or as a result of corrosive processes.
Removal of defects in the borehole walls:
CLS eliminates irregularities and defects in the borehole walls, which helps avoid problems associated with improperly seated strings or pipe.
Working principle:
Paddle design: The calibrator has paddles or plate-like elements that move along the borehole walls in a spiral path, widening and leveling the borehole. These elements can be flexible or rigid depending on the tool design.
Cleaning and calibration process: As the tool passes through the borehole, its elements act on the walls, cleaning them of contaminants and expanding the diameter to the required parameters.
Mud circulation: The CLS also helps improve mud circulation, which helps remove cuttings and other residue from the well.
Benefits of using Spiral Vane Calibrator:
Maintaining the correct borehole diameter: The calibrator helps achieve the proper borehole diameter and shape, which is important for successful completion operations.
Increasing permeability: Eliminates obstructions and defects, which improves mud permeability and facilitates further downhole operations.
Remove contaminants: Cleaning cuttings, rust and other contaminants from the walls helps extend equipment life and improve efficiency.
Improved safety: Calibrating and cleaning the well reduces the risk of clogging accidents or equipment damage.
