Nonlinear dynamic analysis of liquid-solid coupling and rubbing on drill string

Abstract

Natural deposit of natural gas hydrate (NGH) exists in the colder regions on the earth, which is an unconventional energy and has great potential. About 97% of the NGH is located in the offshore and only 3% is located on the land. Due to its sensitivity to the external environment and easy decomposition, it is necessary to suppress the external environment changes caused by the complex vibration of the drill string during its exploitation. In this paper, the fluid-solid coupling nonlinear vibration of drill string is studied. The nonlinear dynamic model of drill string with drilling fluid is established. The relationship between variable parameters of drill string and complex dynamics of drill string is analyzed. Furthermore, the bifurcation diagram is given. The results have certain significance for discussing the non-linear dynamic mechanism of drill string under complex conditions and reasonably selecting the drilling process parameters of NGH.
