The original operation mode makes its management and maintenance costs high and inefficient. The ability of on-site operators is limited, and professional and technical personnel are exhausted and unable to do everything. In the current context of the integration of informatization and industrialization, management and technical personnel have begun to use advanced automation and network technologies to further build digital oil fields, increase production without adding people, and remotely command to win thousands of miles away.

[0020] The plunger pump group of the injection module mixes the polymer dissolved and matured by the dry powder dispersion, dissolution and maturation module with the softened water provided by the produced water treatment module and the surfactant target liquid provided by the liquid agent storage and feeding module, and then injects the mixture into the well.

The aeration unit 3 is located above the continuous aeration tank 2, and the continuous aeration tank 2 is provided with a liquid level gauge Ⅰ4.

[0036] The continuous aeration tank 2 is used as a container for storing and treating incoming water, and the aeration unit 3 oxygenates and stirs the incoming water entering the produced water treatment module 100 to make it fully mixed.
[0037] The liquid level meter Ⅰ4 is used to detect the terminal liquid level of the continuous aeration tank 2. The booster pump 5 automatically operates according to the high liquid level value and low liquid level value set by the PLC program to control the produced water flow rate so that the water level in the continuous aeration tank 2 is stable within the high liquid level value and low liquid level value range.

When the end tank of the maturation tank 17 reaches the high liquid level, the dissolving device stops running, and each device stops in sequence.
[0043] The storage hopper 10 is equipped with a high level meter Ⅰ13 and a low level meter Ⅱ14.

[0060] Example:
[0061] See attached Figure 2 . The data acquisition and exchange network diagram of an unattended tertiary oil production and injection system of the present invention. The monitoring communication module uses Siemens PLC as the control core. As the master station, it connects with the ET200M slave stations in each module control cabinet through the PROFIBUS-DP network to realize data exchange, such as: receiving the operating parameters fed back by various instrument components in each module, and after judgment and calculation, intelligently controlling various electrical components such as contactors, inverters, relays, indicator lights, etc., thereby driving the package system to run automatically.
[0062] The ion exchange device 1 of the produced water treatment module 100 receives low-pressure incoming water, and automatically operates after being powered on. When the self-test meets the conditions, a signal is fed back to the PLC, and the PLC starts the booster pump 5 according to the signal; the softened water treated by the ion exchange device 1 is pressurized to 0.6-0.8MPa and then transported to the continuous aeration tank 2. After filling the first aeration tank, it overflows to the adjacent aeration tank behind until the final aeration tank; in this process, the aeration unit 3 automatically operates to oxygenate, stir and mix the incoming water, and the liquid level meter I4 is used to detect the liquid level of the terminal aeration tank of the continuous aeration tank 2. The booster pump 5 automatically operates according to the high and low liquid levels set in the human-machine interface (HMI). When the liquid level in the continuous aeration tank 2 reaches the low liquid level, the booster pump automatically starts. When it reaches the high liquid level, the raw water booster pump automatically stops and waits for the liquid level to drop below the low liquid level before starting again. This cycle is repeated to keep the liquid level in the continuous aeration tank 2 between the high liquid level and the low liquid level, ensuring that the downstream modules can operate normally.
[0063] When the dry powder dispersing, dissolving and maturing module 200 receives the signal that the water level in the continuous aeration tank 2 is normally allowed to be output and the real-time value of the liquid level at the end of the maturing tank 17 is lower than the low liquid level value set in the human-machine interface, it automatically runs, the water supply pump 6 starts, the regulating valve I8 opens, and the pressure in the front pipeline of the venturi 9 is not less than 0.6MPa, and the dispersion pump 16 starts. PLC, regulating valve I8 and flowmeter I7 form a PID closed-loop regulation to stabilize the water flow rate at the set flow rate. To ensure the concentration of the polymer solution, the powder feeding speed of the metering feeder 11 is adjusted by the frequency converter according to the water flow rate, and finally the mixed polymer mother liquor is sent to the entrance of the first tank of the maturing tank 17 through the pipeline. When the end tank of the maturing tank 17 reaches the high liquid level, each device stops in sequence; when the liquid level drops below the low liquid level, it starts again. Repeat this cycle to keep the liquid level in the maturing tank 17 between the high liquid level and the low liquid level, ensuring that the mother liquor feeding and water mixing module can operate normally. During the operation of the injection system, the PLC system monitors the operating status of each device in real time. When the opening of the regulating valve Ⅰ8 reaches 100% and the flow meter Ⅰ7 detects that the water supply flow is less than 60% of the set flow, the metering feeder 11 will stop running, and the low flow fault will be fed back to the PLC system, and a corresponding diagnostic reminder will be issued to the upper computer.
[0064] The automatic feeding device 12 automatically operates according to the dry powder storage in the storage hopper 10. The main working process is as follows:
[0065] Warehouse entry: When the low level meter II 14 detects that there is still residual dry powder in the storage hopper 10, the warehouse entry can be carried out. The polymer transport vehicle carries the polymer dry powder material to the warehouse area, the warehouse door opens, and the warehouse entry folding conveyor falls; the vehicle dump crane uses a special lifting device to place the pallets loaded with materials on the warehouse entry folding conveyor one by one; the material pallets are automatically transported to each storage station through the conveying line, completing the material storage waiting for feeding link.
[0066] Grabbing process: When the low level meter II 14 detects that the remaining dry powder level in the storage hopper 10 is too low, the material tray is automatically transported to the depalletizing position in sequence on the conveyor. The robot first judges the stamping direction based on vision, uses a composite gripper (suction cup plus mechanical gripper) to suck the bag through the suction cup, and then uses the mechanical gripper to hold the bag tightly (the use of a large air volume vacuum fan here can make up for the problem of loose connection between the suction cup and the bag, and avoid bag dropping), completing the material grabbing process.
[0067] Feeding process: The robot sends the bag to the bag cutter at the feeding port, cuts a long opening in the bag with a tungsten steel cutter, and shakes the material clean with its manipulator, completing the feeding process.
[0068] Waste bag collection stage: After the robot completes the feeding stage, it transfers the waste bags to the vibrating conveyor for stacking. After 30 waste bags are stacked, the vibrating conveyor transports the waste bags to the strapping and baling machine for strapping and baling, and then transports them to the waste bag collection bin via the double-layer climbing conveyor, completing the waste bag collection stage.
[0069] Empty pallet collection stage: When the whole stack of materials is finished, the empty pallet is sent to the stacking machine via the conveyor. The stacking machine completes the stacking operation. When the empty pallet is stacked to 10 layers, the conveyor transports the empty pallet to the buffer conveyor for retrieval.
[0070] Dust removal: The dust removal equipment is located higher than the feeding port. When the feeding signal is given, the negative pressure dust suction device of the feeding bin absorbs the dust generated during feeding into the dust collector, and can put the absorbed dust into the feeding bin, without the need for manual cleaning of the absorbed dust.
[0071] The above-mentioned grabbing step, feeding step, waste bag collection step and dust removal step are repeated until the high-level level meter Ⅰ13 detects that the dry powder in the storage hopper 10 has reached a high level, and the automatic feeding device 12 stops feeding the dry powder into the storage hopper 10.
[0072] The stock liquid tank 20 in the liquid medicine storage and feeding module 300 stores the surfactant stock solution, and the liquid level meter III 24 monitors its liquid level in real time, allowing the tank pump 34 to pump the surfactant stock solution from the stock liquid tank to the dilution tank 54 according to the control process. When the liquid level in the dilution tank I is lower than the low liquid level value set by the PLC system, the electric valve III 30 opens, and after detecting the open position signal, the water mixing pump I 35 injects softened water into it to the water level set by the PLC system and then stops, and the electric valve III 30 is closed accordingly until it is completely closed and the closed position signal is transmitted; the electric valve I 28 opens, and after detecting the open position signal, the tank pump 34 pumps the surfactant stock solution into the dilution tank I to the high liquid level set by the PLC system and then stops, and the electric valve I 28 is closed accordingly until it is completely closed and the closed position signal is transmitted; the dilution tank II repeats this process, and the electric valve II 29 and electric valve IV 31 correspondingly cooperate to complete the liquid preparation process. When the dilution tank I is finished with liquid, the electric valve V32 opens, and the surfactant target liquid prepared in proportion flows to the inlet of the feeding pump I36 under the action of its own gravity, and is transported to the inlet static mixer of the injection module 500 by the feeding pump I36 according to the process requirements. The feeding pump I36 and the feeding pump III40 are interlocked and operated; until the liquid level in the dilution tank I is lower than the low liquid level set by the PLC, the outlet electric valve VI33 of the dilution tank II is opened, the electric valve V32 is closed, and the two tanks are put into use alternately to ensure the continuity of the surfactant feeding. The surfactant target liquid feeding process adopts variable frequency constant current control. The PLC, frequency converter and flow meter II38 form a PID closed loop control to accurately control the ratio concentration of the surfactant solution and the polymer solution. When the frequency converter output reaches 50Hz, and the flow rate monitored by the flow meter II38 still does not reach the set displacement, the PLC system is fed back with a low flow rate fault of the surfactant feeding. When the liquid level in the above-mentioned original liquid tank 20 and the dilution tank 54 is not lower than the low liquid level value set by the PLC system, the corresponding mixer of the mixer II 22 automatically operates. The bactericide tank 21 is used to store bactericides, the mixer III 23 is used to stir the medicine in the bactericide tank, and the liquid level meter VI 27 is used to monitor the liquid level value of the medicine. Considering the physical and chemical properties of the bactericide, an ultrasonic liquid level meter is preferably installed on the top of the tank to avoid direct contact with the medicine. The bactericide is added by the constant flow of the feed pump II 37 driven by the inverter according to the low-pressure water volume, and the frequency is directly set on the inverter panel according to the actual amount.
[0073] The feeding pump III40 in the mother liquor feeding and water mixing module 400 adopts automatic constant pressure feeding, and is interlocked with the injection module for follow-up control. The feeding pump III40 is driven by the frequency converter to transport the polymer mother liquor flowing out of the aging tank 17 to the inlet static mixer of the injection module 500, and forms a PID closed loop control with the PLC and the pressure transmitter I43 to ensure constant feeding pressure. When the output of the frequency converter reaches 50Hz, and the pressure monitored by the pressure transmitter I43 still does not reach the set pressure, the low flow rate fault of the polymer solution feeding is fed back to the PLC system. The start-up of the water mixing pump II41 is interlocked with the follow-up control of the feeding pump III40, and runs automatically. The regulating valve II42 forms a PID closed loop control opening with the PLC and the flow meter IV44 according to the set water mixing ratio value to ensure that the water mixing ratio meets the process requirements. When the opening of the regulating valve II2 reaches 100%, and the flow monitored by the flow meter IV44 still does not reach the corresponding flow, the low flow rate fault of water mixing is fed back to the PLC system.
[0074] The plunger pump group 46 in the injection module 500 can be set to local or remote start and stop modes through buttons, and the on-site operation of the plunger button start operation or the upper computer remote operation of the plunger pump group 46 can be carried out. One or more frequency converters are used to adjust the injection volume according to the needs of the site. The pressure transmitter group II 48 monitors the pipeline pressure at the inlet of the plunger pump group 46 to ensure the stability of the inlet pressure. When the pressure is lower than the set value, the inlet pressure is too low. The signal is fed back to the PLC control system, and the injection pump is stopped with a delay to prevent the occurrence of emptying. The pressure transmitter III 49 monitors the pipeline pressure at the outlet of the plunger pump group. When the pressure exceeds the rated pressure of the pipeline, the outlet pressure is too high. The signal is fed back to the PLC control system to immediately stop the injection pump to prevent the occurrence of pipeline burst accidents. The pressure transmitter IV 50 is installed at the outlet manifold. The real-time value and the PID closed-loop control system composed of PLC and frequency converter automatically adjust the pressure to ensure constant injection pressure. The flow meter V47 monitors the displacement of each pump of the plunger pump group in real time. When the flow rate is abnormal, the low flow signal of the pump is fed back to the PLC control system; the temperature transmitter group 51 monitors the oil temperature in each plunger pump cavity; the vibration transmitter group 52 monitors the vibration amplitude of the plunger pump plunger and the inlet and outlet pipelines; the PLC system integrates the flow rate of a single pump, the vibration amplitude of each plunger, the inlet and outlet pipeline position, the oil temperature and other data, determines the possible fault, and outputs the corresponding fault according to the program setting. The online viscometer 53 monitors the viscosity of the polymer target liquid in real time, and forms a viscosity curve in the monitoring system for easy comparison and query.
[0075] The PLC monitoring system in the monitoring communication module uses Siemens PLC as the control core. The digital and analog signals of all devices are automatically collected into the controller through the Pofibus-DP bus in the mode of field distributed I / O. The operation status, pipeline flow, pressure and other data of each device can be monitored in real time through the HMI. If necessary, the corresponding patrol report can be generated and uploaded to the cloud through the wireless communication system; key production parameters can be adjusted locally through the HMI. All power supply circuits, especially the high-power power supply circuits in the injection module, are equipped with intelligent power metering units, which can provide more comprehensive overload protection and short-circuit protection functions. At the same time, the voltage, current, active power, apparent power and other data of the circuit are transmitted to the PLC system for easy query.
[0076] The present invention adopts mobile data to connect the wireless communication system. The wireless communication system is connected to the PLC control system and has three networking modes: mobile data, Ethernet, and WIFI. It can remotely download programs to debug PLC / HMI and other equipment without fixed IP and port mapping. Module information and equipment information can be backed up to the cloud. Mobile data is used to connect the wireless communication system, which is not affected by the construction of on-site wired network communication infrastructure equipment, thereby ensuring stable operation of the system. Management personnel and technical personnel can view the liquid level, pressure and operation status of various pumps through the APP, remotely modify and download PLC control programs, adjust production parameters, view the operation status of key equipment, and refer to fault prompts to maintain equipment. It is easy to maintain, reduces safety risks, and reduces operating costs, thereby achieving the purpose of unattended operation.
[0077] It should be noted that the above-mentioned embodiments illustrate rather than limit the invention, and that those skilled in the art will be able to design many alternative embodiments without departing from the scope of the claims of this patent.
