Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of downhole throttling devices, and in particular to a non-metallic composite continuous tubing downhole throttling device, a control circuit and an operating method. Background Art
[0002] The non-metallic composite continuous tubing string has excellent corrosion resistance, sufficient pressure bearing strength, tensile and bending resistance, and can be continuously formed, which can greatly reduce the labor intensity of construction workers and improve the efficiency of well operation. Therefore, it has become a good substitute for traditional steel oil pipes. Based on good designability and continuous forming process characteristics, the non-metallic composite continuous tubing string provides favorable conditions for the composite laying of power cables, signal cables, auxiliary heating cables and other cables. The downhole electric-controlled throttle valve is set on the non-metallic composite continuous tubing string. The function of the downhole electric-controlled throttle valve is mainly reflected in regulating the downhole oil and gas flow and controlling the liquid and gas production. In layman's terms, the throttle valve is a downhole tool for regulating wellhead pressure and flow. In the production process of oil wells, wellhead pressure is an important parameter, which directly affects the production capacity of oil wells and the output of oil and gas. The installation position of the downhole electric control throttle valve is at the bottom of the well. Unlike the throttle valve, which can force the diameter to be reduced at the wellhead, it is easy to cause a sudden pressure drop and ice blockage. The downhole electric control throttle valve can achieve slow control of the wellhead pressure by adjusting the fluid flow entering the pipeline, and it is not easy to cause ice blockage. When the wellhead pressure is too high, the downhole throttle valve is required to reduce the gap between the valve core and the valve seat, thereby reducing the wellhead pressure; conversely, when the wellhead pressure is too low, the downhole electric control throttle valve will appropriately increase the gap between the valve core and the valve seat, thereby increasing the wellhead pressure.
[0003] At present, there is no relevant equipment on the market that can freely adjust the flow area on the wellhead surface to control the flow rate. The mainstream product on the market is the traditional downhole choke, and the existing downhole choke can only be adjusted by inserting or removing the throttle nozzle each time, and cannot be adjusted steplessly on the ground. Secondly, the traditional downhole choke also needs special salvage equipment to salvage during the removal process, and the cost of a single operation is huge. It is also impossible to smoothly control the wellhead pressure and production. Therefore, the traditional downhole choke is easy to cause huge losses to oil field exploitation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a non-metallic composite continuous tubing downhole throttling device that can be infinitely adjusted on the ground. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the prior art and the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0020] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, which are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limitations on the present application. The terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. In addition, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be a connection between the two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0021] The downhole throttling device provided in the embodiment of the present application is suitable for deep well oil and gas production. Natural gas production generally adopts the self-blowing method. In the early stage of natural gas well production, the gas well pressure is high and gas production is easy in the early stage. However, during the entire life cycle of the natural gas well, as the gas well production time continues, in the middle and late stages of production, the gas well production capacity will gradually decrease, and the flow rate will also significantly decrease, which is not conducive to normal gas production. In particular, when the gas production flow rate is lower than the critical liquid-carrying flow rate, liquid will accumulate at the bottom of the gas well. Once liquid accumulation occurs at the bottom of the well, the production of the gas well will be greatly reduced. In severe cases, it will also cause the gas well to be flooded and shut down. In order to still increase the gas production rate in the middle and late stages of the prior art, a downhole throttling device is used to control the channel area, thereby increasing the gas production rate. The conventional operation is to first lower a throttling device with a fixed channel area into the well, but it can only maintain gas production for a period of time. In the late stages of production, the gas well will be completely shut down. The throttle previously lowered can no longer meet the later gas production requirements, so the original throttle needs to be salvaged with special equipment, and then a throttle with a smaller channel area needs to be lowered again so that the well can continue to be mined. However, in the field of oil and gas production, the cost of lowering a throttle once is huge, and professional operation is required, which is not conducive to the efficient operation of deep well gas production. Therefore, after long-term research and development and thinking, the present application has opened up a new path, which no longer relies on the inherent idea of traditional multiple lowering of throttles, and realizes the pre-installation of non-metallic composite continuous tubing downhole throttling device in the gas well. It only needs to adjust the throttling area of the corresponding downhole throttling device according to the gas production rate requirements in the middle and late stages of the gas well, so as to meet the mining requirements of the gas well throughout its life cycle, and truly realize the stepless adjustment of the non-metallic composite continuous tubing downhole throttling device.

[0033] In the present application embodiment, Figure 1-4 As shown, the throttling assembly 2 further includes a first bearing 26 and a second bearing 27 ; the first bearing 26 and the second bearing 27 are both sleeved on the outside of the screw rod 231 , and the first bearing 26 and the second bearing 27 are respectively arranged on both sides of the sleeve 232 .
[0034] Exemplarily, a first bearing 26 and a second bearing 27 are respectively provided at both ends of the sleeve 232, and the reaction force of the first elastic member 22 can be transmitted to the output end of the power component 3 through the first bearing 26 and the second bearing 27. In addition, the first bearing 26 and the second bearing 27 can reduce the friction between the screw rod 231 and the valve body 1 during the rotation process, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the downhole throttling device.
[0035] In the present application embodiment, Figure 1-4As shown, the power assembly 3 includes a power piece 31, a housing 32 and a coupling 33; the housing 32 is connected to the valve body 1; the power piece 31 and the coupling 33 are both arranged inside the housing 32; the fixed end of the power piece 31 is connected to the housing 32, the movable end of the power piece 31 is connected to one end of the coupling 33, and the other end of the coupling 33 is connected to the screw rod 231.

[0043] For example, the centralizer 5 can make the downhole throttling device as a whole centered without hitting the wall, thereby ensuring smooth sliding during the up and down operation, and the centralizer 5 can also serve as the data storage and transmission end of the sensor, thereby transmitting the data of the downhole throttling device back to the control cabinet 101.

[0046] The embodiment of the present invention provides an operation method of a non-metallic composite continuous tubing downhole throttling device, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the control circuit of the downhole throttling device using the non-metallic composite continuous tubing string includes the following steps: S1: Place the downhole throttling device underground, control the first relay 9 to close through the digital control switch power supply 6, and start the downhole throttling device of the non-metallic composite continuous tubing string; S2: The output end of the power member 31 rotates, and drives the transmission member 23 to rotate through the coupling 33. The transmission member 23 drives the throttle nozzle 21 to move forward and backward in the length direction of the flow channel 12, thereby adjusting the flow rate of the downhole throttling device; S3: The first elastic member 22 is subjected to force during the movement of the throttle nozzle 21, and transmits the force to the transmission member 23 through the mounting block 25, and the transmission member 23 then transmits the force to the output end of the power member 31 through the coupling 33; S4: A sensor is provided at the output end of the power member 31, and the sensor can convert the signal into a current signal through the second chip 8 and display it on the control panel at the wellhead; S5: The staff determines the position of the throttle nozzle 21 through the current signal on the control panel, and can adjust the position of the throttle nozzle 21, so as to accurately adjust the flow rate of the downhole throttling device.

[0048] Exemplarily, the staff on the ground gives the power member 31 a start or shut down signal through the control panel. After receiving the signal, the power member 31 inside the downhole throttling device rotates forward or reversely, and then converts the torque to the transmission member 23 through the coupling 33, so that the displacement of the throttling nozzle 21 can be adjusted. The present application can timely determine the open or closed position of the throttling nozzle 21 by observing the degree of increase in the current on the wellhead control panel. Specifically, the greater the reaction force generated by the first elastic member 22, the linear increase of the current on the control panel. The main function of the first elastic member 22 includes converting the change in the displacement of the throttling nozzle 21 into a visible linear current change. At the same time, the control cabinet 101 can also detect the current of the power member 31, thereby preventing the power member 31 from burning out due to excessive current. The present application can also detect the flow rate at the wellhead and adjust the opening and closing of the downhole throttling device according to the feedback result.
