Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of screw pumps and oil pumps, and specifically relates to a hydraulically controlled integrated blowout preventer and anchoring tool. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, both plugging tubing and production tubing require blowout preventers (BOPs) when the fluid volume is large and the pressure is high. While existing BOPs can achieve the function of preventing blowout, they all require the use of a movable tubing string to complete the BOP and open the well. When the tubing string is moved, it is impossible to prevent well fluid from flowing out of the wellhead and causing pollution. Furthermore, effective BOP cannot be performed when installing the wellhead during well completion, resulting in environmental pollution and unnecessary losses.
[0003] The main problems include the following: (1) When the blowout preventer is released, the moving tubing causes well fluid to overflow and pollute the environment; (2) When the wellhead is installed during well completion, the blowout preventer must be in the open state, which cannot prevent well fluid from flowing out and causing pollution. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The blowout preventer assembly in this embodiment includes a pressure-controlled blowout preventer. The pressure-controlled blowout preventer includes an upper connector 2-1 connected to a lower connector 1-34. One end of the upper connector 2-1 is inserted into an upper outer sleeve 2-2.

[0021] In this embodiment, the push rod 3 includes a push rod head 3-1, a push rod 3-2, and an upper connector 3-3. The push rod head 3-1 has a groove on its end face, which can cooperate with the piston rod 2-5 of the pressure-controlled anti-blowout switch, causing the piston rod 2-5 to move and open or close the switch. The upper connector 3-3 connects to the push rod 3-2, and the lower part of the push rod 3-2 connects to the push rod head 3-1. In this embodiment, the push rod is machined with multiple inlet holes that can replace the screen tube for liquid inlet.
[0022] The working principle of the hydraulically controlled blowout preventer and anchoring integrated tool in this embodiment is as follows:
[0023] The lower connector of the hydraulic release packer and the upper connector of the pressure-controlled blowout preventer are connected to form a single tool, which is attached to the lower end of the first release string. The push rod is attached to the lower end of the second production string.
[0024] 1. The upper end of the hydraulically controlled blowout preventer and anchoring integrated tool is connected to the lower end of the drop string via a thread, and the lower end is connected to the tubing via a thread. After the connection is completed, it is lowered into the well to the pre-designed depth.
[0025] 2. Pressurize the oil pipe. The pressure enters the tool through hole 2. First, the pressure pushes the seat seal slider 1-18 upward to shear the seat seal pin 1-19, causing the third locking block 1-20 to protrude. Continue pressing and the third locking block 1-20 falls off. The seat seal piston 1-22 disengages and moves downward, causing the fourth central tube 1-23 to move downward and compress the side rubber sleeve 1-24 and the middle rubber sleeve 1-26. The side rubber sleeve 1-24 and the middle rubber sleeve 1-26 form a seal with the casing. Continue pressing and the slip 1-30 protrudes outward and anchors onto the casing under the action of the upper slip slider 1-28 and the lower slip slider 1-32's conical surfaces, completing the anchoring. At the same time, the second outer protective tube 1-21 also moves with the seat seal piston 1-22, and its internal teeth engage and lock with the retaining spring 1-16 to prevent the slip and rubber sleeve from springing back.
[0026] 3. Continue pressurizing the tubing. Pressure enters through hole 1, pushing the release piston 1-9 to shear the release pin 1-10 and move downwards. The first locking block 1-11 detaches externally. At this point, the upper connector 1-1, sheath 1-2, and release connector 1-3 separate from other tools and are pulled out with the tubing string. The remaining tools remain in the well. At this time, the pressure relief needle valve 2-9 and the connecting sleeve 2-7 are in tight contact under the action of spring 2-14, sealing the central channel and working with the rubber sleeve to prevent blowout.
[0027] 4. After the first production tubing string is retrieved, the second production tubing string is lowered, with the lower end connected to the shovel rod 3. The production tubing string is higher than the release tubing string to prevent the shovel rod 3 from contacting the lower tool. The wellhead is then installed. At this point, no well fluid should overflow from the wellhead.
[0028] 5. Pressure is applied to the casing, and the pressure is transmitted through the casing to the upper part of the pressure-controlled blowout preventer. Under the pressure, the piston rod 2-5 moves downward, pushing the pressure relief needle valve 2-9 apart from the connecting sleeve 2-7. The guide pin 2-12 moves along the inner track of the central tube 2-13 to the short rail, opening the central channel. Downhole fluid can then pass through the gap between the pressure relief needle valve 2-9 and the connecting sleeve 2-7, pushing the sealing sleeve 2-6 into the upper part, and then into the tubing for normal production. No well fluid overflows from the wellhead.
[0029] 6. When blowout prevention is required again, the piston rod 2-5 can be pressed into the casing again. Under pressure, it moves downward and pushes the pressure relief needle valve 2-9 and the guide pin 2-12 along the inner track of the central tube 2-13 to the long rail. Under the action of the spring 2-14, the pressure relief needle valve 2-9 moves upward and contacts the connecting sleeve 2-7 again, closing the central channel and preventing downhole fluid from entering, thus completing the blowout prevention.
[0030] During the salvage operation, the salvage tool enters the hydraulic release packer and engages with the threaded connection of salvage connector 1-4, then the tubing is lifted. The lifting load is transmitted to the release pin 1-13 through salvage connector 1-6. Shearing the release pin 1-13 releases the second locking block 1-14, freeing the snap ring 1-16. This causes the outer protective tube 1-7 and the second outer protective tube 1-21 to move upwards, creating space. The side rubber sleeve 1-24, the middle rubber sleeve 1-26, and the slip 1-30 retract under elastic force, completing the release. Continued lifting completes the salvage operation.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
