A new scientific-technological approach on solution of the problem of
caved-in interval sealing by steel pipes without cementing with minor
loss in borehole diameter, as one option, and without loss in borehole
diameter as second option, has been developed and field tested. A tec
hnology has been created, enabling for the first time in drilling prac
tices to realize interval-by-interval consolidation of difficult lost
circulation zone by steel pipes without any loss in borehole diameter.
