BARRILES MUESTREROS

Conventional Coring
TUBO EXTERNO: Transmite peso, rotación y el
fluído de perforación a la corona
JUNTA DE SEGURIDAD : Permite extraer el tubo
interno en caso de pega.
ESTABILIZADOR : Centraliza el barril en el pozo.
CORONA : Corta la formación.
JUNTA GIRATORIA : Aisla el tubo interno de la
rotación a través del balero.
TUBO INTERNO : Aloja el núcleo una vez cortado.
RETENEDOR NUCLEO : Corta el núcleo del fondo y
lo retiene dentro del tubo interno.

 Benefits


Rig floor safety is improved


Rig time is more efficiently used
 
Debido a los cambios litológicos..

Cuando existe el cambio litológico se pierde la
continuidad del núcleo, entonces el núcleo que esta
entrando tiene que empujar al que esta arriba y si este es
una sección muy pesada igualmente se atasca.

 Low Invasion


Prevents fluid flow in core bit throat

Directs fluid away from core

Improves R.O.P.

Reduces filtrate invasion

features and benefits
System passes through standard drill collar bore with standard connections.

System operates with standard drill string and drilling services – no

customization is required.

Clear positive pressure signal indicates :

Inner tube landing
Core jamming

Inner barrel is stabilized at four separate points

Flow rate capacity is much higher than in conventional coring applications.

Inner barrel permits recovery of full-length 32 ft core sections up to 90 ft.

Quick retrieval rate and elimination of pipe tripping operations result in

significant rig time saving.

Pressure valves

Objectives :
• Enable safe coring of high
pressure formations
• Eliminate the possibility of
trapping gas at formation
