Zhou Xiaobo, male, 28 years old, bachelor's degree, is currently an engineering technician of the 50785JH team of the First Drilling Company of Jianghan Petroleum Engineering Company. In the past 3 years, he and his colleagues have completed the first shale gas well deployed in Southeast Guizhou, the Yellow Page 1 well, and the 6 wells that have participated and worked independently. His team set a number of construction records in China's first shale gas production capacity demonstration zone. He himself has won the titles of "Dual Civilization Model Individual", "Model Ideological and Political Worker", "Outstanding Young Post Master" and "Model Technical Worker" among drilling companies. Crossing thousands of mountains and rivers, from the Jianghan Plain to the southeast of Guizhou and Guizhou to the Fuling Jiaoshi Dam, Zhou Xiaobo measures the weight of oil with his feet, and writes the glory of youth with wisdom and sweat.

Take off in diligence

In July 2010, Zhou Xiaobo graduated from Southwest Petroleum University and became an ordinary driller. The mud-filled well field, full of manual labor, gradually made him realize the hardship and difficulty of the oil man, and also made him feel that every drop of oil was precious. Deepening his relationship with oil also made him regard drilling as his "close lover."

In December 2010, he was transferred to the 50785 drilling team as an engineering technician. The team is constructing the first shale gas exploration well deployed by East China Petroleum Bureau in southeast Guizhou. For Jianghan Drilling, how to make a name for itself is the key battle for the drilling brand. During that time, Zhou Xiaobo checked the information, ran the scene, consulted experts, and analyzed it carefully. He was busy in the well during the day, and at night he wrote down the main points, points and difficulties of the construction on his notebook. There are too many formation uncertainties in the Huangping block of Guizhou. It often encounters complex situations such as "karst caves", large fractures, and malignant leakage. In addition, the formations are older, the formations are naturally inclined, and the quality of the well is difficult to control. For this reason, Zhou Xiaobo started by optimizing the drilling tool combination and rationally adjusting the optimal drilling parameters to improve the drilling speed while ensuring the quality of the wellbore. In order to solve the problems of hard and brittle lithology of mud shale cores, and the use of water-based mud cores to easily block cores, Zhou Xiaobao wanted to consult the experts in charge of the East China Bureau to study the coring countermeasures and develop the best coring methods. After hard work, the core of the well was 13 barrels, and the harvest rate of 5 barrels reached 99%, which was well received by Party A.

Grow in sharpening

June 12, 2011 was the most tiring day in Zhou Xiaobo's memory. On that day, the team undertook the construction of Well 35-5. When drilling to 1299 meters, the formation seeped out salt water, the vibrating screen returned a lot of sand, and the pump pressure was abnormal. Zhou Xiaobo judged that the well was broken. The only solution was to increase the mud density and pay attention to the spar. Zhou Xiaobo and everyone lowered 4 tons of barite into the well overnight. After 5 hours, the well wall pressure was balanced and the well collapse phenomenon was contained.

In the memory of my colleagues, Zhou Xiaobo is a "desperate Saburo." In March 2013, the team was ordered to advance into China's first shale gas production capacity demonstration zone. The formation parameters in this block are unknown and the situation is complicated, making drilling more difficult than expected. To this end, Zhou Xiaobo studies the research technology every day, and often stays on the rig all night to closely monitor the situation underground. To this end, he postponed the marriage several times. Later, the team specially organized a battle wedding for him. Unexpectedly, the short holiday was not over yet, and Zhou Xiaobo went into battle again. His efforts paid off, setting a record of 234 meters per day in foam drilling in Jiaoshiba.

Three, mature in innovation

Masters are not old workers. Zhou Xiaobo concluded in practice that innovation is the soul of drilling. In 2012, when the team undertook to drill wells 35-6 and 3 in Xindian, the sandstone of the Xujiahe Formation in this block was highly abrasive, and the drill bit was very worn. It required 3 to 4 drill bits to meet the requirements. How to speed up and improve efficiency, the hybrid drill produced by Jiangdrill drilled well in the Yuanba block. Can you use this bit to try it in Jiannan block? Zhou Xiaobo immediately requested instructions from the branch leaders, and combined with Jiangyin technicians to conduct tests in Jian 35-6 in Jiannan Block. The results were unexpected. The drill was successfully drilled through the Xujiahe Formation using only one drill bit, and the ROP increased by 1.5 times.

In order to improve production efficiency, Zhou Xiaobo researched and modified the grouting pipeline and grouting with a grouting pump, which not only facilitates the measurement, but also greatly reduces the downtime of downhole drilling and casing grouting. When relocating and installing, the drilling tools need to be bundled and loaded. Usually, they are tied and tied with steel wire rope, which is not strong and safe. After Zhou Xiaobo's test, he found that the drilling tools are bundled with steel wire ropes and shackles. The bundled drilling tools are strong, safe and reliable, and easy to operate. In the past, 4 people were required for bundling, but now only 1 person can complete it.
