Abstract
Disclosed are a wellbore inspection system and method for an ultra-deep vertical shaft. The wellbore inspection system includes a wire rope moving system, inspection robots, a visual image acquisition system, a wireless communication module, a central control system, and an image post-processing system of an upper computer. The wire rope moving system includes a surface wire rope guide rail, an underground wire rope guide rail, a surface wire rope moving device, an underground wire rope moving device, and a wire rope. The visual image acquisition system includes explosion-proof cameras. After image information acquired by the explosion-proof cameras is processed by a lower computer, the processed image is transmitted by a wireless image transmission module to the image post-processing system of the upper computer. The central control system is connected to the inspection robots and the wire rope moving system, and the inspection robots are connected to the central control system.
