description The world is rich in coalbed methane (CBM) resources and has broad exploration and development prospects. In this paper, first, the technical difficulties of drilling and completion in deep shale formations in the Sichuan and Chongqing region is systematically summarized. Second, a systematic evaluation was conducted on the optimization of temperature resistance performance and trajectory control technology of the rotary guidance system. Third, evaluation and economic analysis were conducted on the experimental effects of different technologies. Results show that: (a) the optimization technology for temperature resistance performance of integrated high-temperature resistant guide head and surface cooling equipment has been formed, which can effectively reduce the circulation cooling time and improve drilling efficiency. (b) Real time measurement of underground engineering parameters and monitoring and evaluation of wellbore cleanliness can reduce drilling risks, while achieving quantitative evaluation of drilling fluid gas content. (c) Assisted by real-time optimization technology of mechanical drilling speed based on underground surface engineering parameters, the acceleration effect has been significantly improved.
