On-site Fault Maintenance Case
Case 1: ZJ70/4500DB Mud Pump Valve Plate Wear Fault - During deep drilling in a western oilfield, the F1600*3 mud pump of ZJ70/4500DB rig showed abnormal noise and decreased discharge pressure after 600 operating hours. Inspection revealed that the valve plates were severely worn (wear depth ≥ 1.5 mm) due to insufficient filtration of drilling fluid, which contained a large amount of quartz sand particles. Solution: Replace the valve plates with PDC-inserted ones, upgrade the drilling fluid filter to 150-mesh, and add anti-scouring additives. After maintenance, the pump operated stably for 1200 operating hours, verifying the effectiveness of strengthening drilling fluid filtration and using wear-resistant components.
Case 2: ZJ90/6750DB Swivel Seal Leakage Fault - In an ultra-deep sour gas well drilling, the SL675 swivel of ZJ90/6750DB rig had drilling fluid leakage. Investigation found that the original seals were not resistant to H₂S and high temperature, leading to aging and cracking. Solution: Replace the seals with FFKM materials resistant to H₂S and high temperature (≥ 200℃), and apply anti-sulfide coating on the swivel surface. Post-maintenance, the swivel operated without leakage for 800 operating hours, meeting the ultra-deep sour gas well operation requirements.
