Abstract

Provided are a drill-power-based directional hydraulic fracturing system for downhole quick slotting and a method thereof. The directional hydraulic fracturing system includes a water injection pump, a high pressure rubber pipe arranged on the water injection pump is in communication with a drill, a dedicated sealing drill rod for hydraulic fracturing is arranged on the drill, a front segment of the drill rod may be connected with a directional borehole sealer through threads and a sealing ring is provided at the threaded connection. The main steps include drilling, slotting, borehole sealing and fracturing. Firstly, a drill-cut integrated tool is installed at a front end of the drill rod. After drilling is completed, hydraulic slotting, permeability improvement and pressure relief are performed without changing a drill bit. After slotting is completed, the drill bit is retreated, and the directional borehole sealer is installed and pushed to a predetermined position for efficiency sealing. After sealing is completed, high pressure water injection fracturing is performed to increase fissure density and scope with “high pressure penetration” as main. Thus, water injection for the co…
