Summary of the invention

[0011] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a high-efficiency lifting method and pipe string for graded pumping in deep oil and gas reservoirs. According to the reservoir characteristics, the matched vibrator is optimized and applied to improve the seepage capacity of the reservoir and play a role in rapid oil production; according to the fluid characteristics, the distribution of the pumping device is optimized. The outer diameter of the pumping device is close to the inner diameter of the oil pipe, and the two are gap-sealed. When the rod column goes up, the gap leakage is less than the volume released by the pumping device; according to the characteristics of different fluids, the pumping device has different optimized spacing.

[0012] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme, a high-efficiency lifting method for deep oil and gas reservoirs by staged pumping assistance, comprising the following steps:

[0013] The first step is to collect the early production data of the oil wells and the corresponding water well data, analyze the oil-water connectivity, and analyze the density, sand content, corrosiveness, wax deposition, gas content, and water content of the reservoir;

[0014] The second step is to select a suitable vibrator according to the reservoir analysis results;

[0015] The third step is to select the appropriate oil pipe according to the fluid analysis characteristics;

[0016] The fourth step is to design the spacing between two or more pumping aids according to the pump depth and fluid characteristics;

[0017] The fifth step is to carry out construction according to the design results. First, the tubing string is lowered, and then the tubing string is pressure tested. After the pressure test is qualified, the sucker rod is lowered to connect the liquid lifting pump. After the pressure test is qualified, normal production can be carried out.

[0018] Furthermore, in the second step, the power of the vibrator is proportional to the thickness of the oil in the reservoir. Thick oil corresponds to a high-power vibrator, and thin oil corresponds to a low-power vibrator.

[0019] Furthermore, in the second step, the power of the vibrator is proportional to the sand content of the oil in the reservoir. The oil layer with high sand content corresponds to a high-power vibrator, and the oil layer with low sand content corresponds to a low-power vibrator.

[0020] Furthermore, in the third step, anti-corrosion oil pipes are used in corroded oil wells; hydrogen sulfide-resistant oil pipes are used in hydrogen sulfide-containing oil wells; and high-insulation gel-lined oil pipes are used in oil wells with a lot of wax deposition to reduce heat loss, keep the fluid temperature above the wax precipitation point, reduce wax cleaning costs, and reduce suspension point loads.

[0021] Furthermore, in the fourth step, the distribution of the pumping aids is optimized according to the gas content of the fluid, the viscosity of the crude oil, and the water content, that is, the greater the gas content, the greater the spacing between the pumping aids, and the smaller the gas content, the smaller the spacing between the pumping aids; the greater the viscosity of the crude oil, the smaller the spacing between the pumping aids, and the smaller the viscosity of the crude oil, the greater the spacing between the pumping aids; the greater the water content, the greater the spacing between the pumping aids, and the smaller the water content, the smaller the spacing between the pumping aids.

[0022] Furthermore, in the fifth step, the pipe string includes a tail pipe, a vibrator, a liquid lifting pump, a pumping aid, and a liquid lifting pipe connected in sequence from bottom to top, and the upper end of the liquid lifting pump is connected to a sucker rod.

[0023] Furthermore, the vibrator is facing the reservoir, and a matching vibrator is applied according to the amount of oil in the oil well. By utilizing the expansion and contraction of the pipe string, the vibrator can generate continuous vibration to relieve the blockage of the reservoir.

[0024] Furthermore, the vibrator has slits or holes that can generate throttling. When the fluid passes through, the fluid flows at a variable speed and generates sound waves, which act on the oil layer, discharge free sand or loosely consolidated sand from the formation, and delay the generation of scale in the blasthole.

[0025] Furthermore, when the rod column moves upward, the pumping aid can be closed under the action of pressure and friction to lift the fluid; when the rod column moves downward, the pumping aid is opened and the fluid can freely pass through the pumping aid.

[0026] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the pumping aid and the inner diameter of the oil pipe form a gap seal, and when the rod string goes up, the gap leakage is smaller than the volume released by the pumping aid; according to the characteristics of different fluids, the pumping aid has different optimized spacings.

[0027] Furthermore, the liquid lifting pump is an oil pump with a sliding valve and a double-layer tube capable of suspending a long tail pipe.

[0028] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme, a high-efficiency lifting string for graded assisted pumping in deep oil and gas reservoirs, comprising a tail pipe, a vibrator, a liquid lifting pump, a pumping aid, and a liquid lifting pipe connected in sequence from bottom to top, and the upper end of the liquid lifting pump is connected to a sucker rod.

[0030] Furthermore, when the rod column moves upward, the pumping aid can be closed under the action of pressure and friction to lift the fluid; when the rod column moves downward, the pumping aid is opened and the fluid can freely pass through the pumping aid.

[0031] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the pumping aid and the inner diameter of the oil pipe form a gap seal, and when the rod string moves upward, the gap leakage is smaller than the volume released by the pumping aid.

[0032] Furthermore, the liquid lifting pump is an oil pump with a sliding valve and a double-layer tube capable of suspending a long tail pipe.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0034] According to the logging data of the oil well, the reservoir energy and the remaining oil are analyzed, and in combination with the fluid characteristics of the oil well and the wellbore structure, a long-term liquid-lifting and efficiency-enhancing tubing string of suitable size and length for low-permeability oil reservoirs, that is, the high-efficiency lifting tubing string for graded pumping assistance in deep oil and gas reservoirs of the present invention, is used to drain the liquid; the tail pipe is deepened to the middle of the oil layer, and the movement of the tubing string and the flow characteristics of the fluid generate vibrations near the oil layer, which promote the vibration and discharge of free mud and sand in the reservoir, and delay the formation of scale in the blasthole; the pumping aid on the pump divides the pressure in the oil pipe, and the gas expands, which can disperse the wax core and delay the formation of wax; the gas content in the oil pipe is increased, and throttling vibration occurs when passing through the pumping aid, thereby delaying the deposition of scale in the oil pipe.

[0045] Embodiment 1:

[0046] See also Figure 1 The present invention provides a technical solution: a high-efficiency lifting method for deep oil and gas reservoirs by assisted pumping, comprising the following steps:

[0047] The first step is to collect the early production data of the oil wells and the corresponding water well data, analyze the oil-water connectivity, and analyze the density, sand content, corrosiveness, wax deposition, gas content, and water content of the reservoir;

[0048] The second step is to select a suitable vibrator according to the reservoir analysis results;

[0057] Furthermore, the vibrator is facing the reservoir, and a matching vibrator is applied according to the amount of oil in the oil well. By utilizing the expansion and contraction of the pipe string, the vibrator can generate continuous vibration to relieve the blockage of the reservoir.

[0058] Furthermore, the vibrator has slits or holes that can generate throttling.

[0060] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the pumping aid and the inner diameter of the oil pipe form a gap seal, and when the rod string goes up, the gap leakage is smaller than the volume released by the pumping aid; according to the characteristics of different fluids, the pumping aid has different optimized spacings.

[0061] Furthermore, the liquid lifting pump is an oil pump with a sliding valve and a double-layer tube capable of suspending a long tail pipe.

[0062] A high-efficiency lifting pipe string for graded pumping assistance in deep oil and gas reservoirs comprises a tail pipe, a vibrator, a liquid lifting pump, a pumping assistant and a liquid lifting pipe which are sequentially connected from bottom to top, wherein the upper end of the liquid lifting pump is connected to a sucker rod.

[0063] Furthermore, the vibrator has slits or holes that can generate throttling. When the fluid passes through, the fluid flows at a variable speed and generates sound waves, which act on the oil layer, discharge free sand or loosely consolidated sand from the formation, and delay the generation of scale in the blasthole.

[0064] Furthermore, when the rod column moves upward, the pumping aid can be closed under the action of pressure and friction to lift the fluid; when the rod column moves downward, the pumping aid is opened and the fluid can freely pass through the pumping aid.

[0065] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the pumping aid and the inner diameter of the oil pipe form a gap seal, and when the rod string moves upward, the gap leakage is smaller than the volume released by the pumping aid.

[0066] Furthermore, the liquid lifting pump is an oil pump with a sliding valve and a double-layer tube capable of suspending a long tail pipe.

[0067] According to the logging data of the oil well, the reservoir energy and the remaining oil are analyzed, and in combination with the fluid characteristics of the oil well and the wellbore structure, a long-term liquid-lifting and efficiency-enhancing tubing string of suitable size and length for low-permeability oil reservoirs, that is, the high-efficiency lifting tubing string for graded pumping assistance in deep oil and gas reservoirs of the present invention, is used to drain the liquid; the tail pipe is deepened to the middle of the oil layer, and the movement of the tubing string and the flow characteristics of the fluid generate vibrations near the oil layer, which promote the vibration and discharge of free mud and sand in the reservoir, and delay the formation of scale in the blasthole; the pumping aid on the pump divides the pressure in the oil pipe, and the gas expands, which can disperse the wax core and delay the formation of wax; the gas content in the oil pipe is increased, and throttling vibration occurs when passing through the pumping aid, thereby delaying the deposition of scale in the oil pipe.

[0068] Consider the reservoir properties of the oil well, optimize the lifting string, use anti-corrosion strings in corrosive oil wells; use hydrogen sulfide-resistant strings in hydrogen sulfide-containing oil wells to extend the lifting life;

[0069] According to the reservoir characteristics, the optimized application of matching vibrators can improve the reservoir's seepage capacity and play a role in rapid oil production; the vibrator is facing the reservoir, and according to the amount of oil in the oil well, a matching vibrator is applied. By using the expansion and contraction of the pipe string, the vibrator can generate continuous vibration to remove the reservoir blockage;

[0070] The vibrator has slits or holes that can produce throttling. When the fluid passes through, the fluid flows at a variable speed and generates sound waves, which can act on the oil layer to discharge free sand or loosely consolidated sand from the formation and delay the formation of scale in the blasthole.

[0071] According to the fluid characteristics, the distribution of the pumping device is optimized. When the pumping device moves upward, it can be closed under the action of pressure and friction to lift the fluid; when it moves downward, the pumping device opens and the fluid can freely pass through the pumping device;

[0072] The outer diameter of the pumping aid is close to the inner diameter of the oil pipe, and the two are gap-sealed. When the rod string moves upward, the gap leakage is smaller than the volume released by the pumping aid. According to the characteristics of different fluids, the pumping aid has different optimized spacings.

[0073] The liquid lifting pump is an oil pump with a sliding valve, a double-layer pipe and a long tail pipe.

[0074] The lifting pump can reduce the plunger stroke loss during the downstroke. During the downstroke, the slide valve is closed and the plunger continues to move downward. Due to the high compressibility of the fluid in deep low-permeability oil wells, when the plunger moves downward, the chamber pressure between the upper part of the plunger and the slide valve decreases. When the fluid pressure below the plunger is higher than the pressure between the plunger and the slide valve, the valve ball opens. However, at this time, the pressure below the slide valve is much lower than the pressure above the slide valve. The buoyancy acting on the bottom of the sucker rod connected to the plunger is greatly reduced compared with conventional processes. Therefore, the rod column length during the downstroke is greater than that of conventional processes, and the rod column stroke loss during the downstroke is reduced. During the upstroke, compared with conventional processes, the rod column length is consistent with the same pump diameter. Therefore, the graded assisted pumping and high-efficiency lifting method can effectively reduce stroke losses and improve pump efficiency.
