Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield development technology, specifically to a device and method for enhancing the energy and uniformity of horizontal well coiled tubing for unblocking and increasing production. Background Technology

[0002] A horizontal well is created by drilling vertically or inclined to the oil-bearing formation, then drilling the drill string in a direction parallel to the formation, forming a horizontal wellbore within the formation. This allows for drilling through long sections of the oil-bearing formation until completion. Traditional oil wells often penetrate the formation vertically or inclined, resulting in shorter well sections and lower production efficiency. Horizontal well technology, with its longer well sections through the oil-bearing formation, significantly increases production capacity compared to traditional wells and has been widely adopted in oilfield development in recent years.

[0003] Currently, the main well-washing and unblocking processes for coalbed methane horizontal wells include: 1. High-volume flushing with clean water in the tubing: This process is simple to operate and convenient to construct, but its unblocking efficiency is relatively low; 2. Hydraulic positive circulation vortex flushing: This process is effective for unblocking blockages at screen pipe orifices and blockages caused by collapse of the screen pipe outer well wall, but its effect on unblocking and permeability enhancement of near-wellbore reservoir contamination is average, and its flushing effect on sediment blockages in the depressions of wave-shaped horizontal wellbore is poor; 3. Nitrogen foam reverse circulation flushing: This process uses nitrogen foam as the washing fluid to flush the wellbore in reverse circulation. It has a strong backflow and rock-carrying capacity and a good effect on flushing and unblocking blockages in the wellbore, but its cost is relatively high, and its effect on unblocking blockages at screen pipe orifices and near-wellbore contamination is average. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a device and method for enhancing the production of horizontal wells by uniformly unblocking and improving the quality of coiled tubing.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a coiled tubing energy enhancement and uniform unblocking production enhancement device for horizontal wells, comprising a propulsion assembly disposed at the wellhead of the horizontal well, a sealing assembly connected to the propulsion assembly, and an unblocking assembly connected to the sealing assembly; the propulsion assembly comprises a base with a through hole at the center, several clamping seats slidably engaged on the base and located around the through hole, several electric push rods disposed on the base and fixedly connected to each clamping seat in a one-to-one correspondence, several propulsion rollers disposed in a one-to-one correspondence inside each clamping seat, and several first micro motors disposed inside each clamping seat and providing power to each propulsion roller;

[0006] The plugging assembly includes a connecting hose that penetrates the through-hole and extends into the horizontal well, two plugging discs fixedly connected to the ends of the connecting hose, rubber plugging bladders respectively disposed around the two plugging discs, and expansion assemblies respectively disposed on the two plugging discs for supporting the rubber plugging bladders; one plugging disc is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting hose, and the other plugging disc is fixedly connected to the plugging disc near the connecting hose by several tie rods; the plugging disc is hollow inside and has a first ferrule and a second ferrule arranged sequentially inside;

[0007] The unblocking assembly includes several mounting rods positioned between two sealing discs and corresponding to each tie rod, an array of high-pressure nozzles movably hinged to the mounting rods, an unblocking pipe positioned inside the connecting hose and connected to each high-pressure nozzle via a capillary tube, and a high-pressure pump positioned outside the horizontal well and connected to the unblocking pipe.

[0008] Furthermore, the expansion assembly includes several expansion rods rotatably engaged with the circumference of the sealing disc, arc-shaped tiles movably hinged to the ends of each expansion rod and abutting against the inner wall of the rubber sealing bladder, a first gear ring disposed inside the sealing disc and located outside the first sleeve, and a second micro motor disposed inside the sealing disc and providing power to the first gear ring; each expansion rod is provided with a gear at the connection point with the sealing disc, and each gear meshes with the first gear ring respectively;

[0009] Instructions: During use, the second micro motor drives the first gear ring to rotate, which in turn causes each gear to rotate under the action of the first gear ring. This causes the expansion rod to deflect at a certain angle, and finally uses the arc-shaped tiles to open the rubber sealing bladder, creating a sealed space between the two sealing discs and the inner wall of the wellbore. This facilitates the segmented unblocking operation of the inner wall of the wellbore and improves the unblocking effect.

[0010] Furthermore, a rotating disc is rotatably engaged on the sealing disc away from the connecting hose, and a rotating flexible shaft is installed inside the connecting hose that passes through the two sealing discs and is connected to the rotating disc. Several breaking plates are evenly distributed around the circumference of the rotating disc; a power motor connected to the rotating flexible shaft is installed outside the horizontal well.

[0011] Explanation: When the connecting hose is inserted into the horizontal well shaft, the power motor drives the rotating flexible shaft to rotate, and the rotating disc drives the crushing plate to rotate, thereby crushing and clearing the blockages such as ore accumulated inside the well shaft, thus improving the production efficiency of the horizontal well.

[0012] Furthermore, each crushing plate is equipped with teeth, and each crushing plate has auxiliary cutting strips on both sides.

[0013] Note: By setting teeth and auxiliary cutting strips on the crushing plate, the crushing effect of the crushing plate on blockages in the well shaft can be improved.

[0014] Furthermore, each high-pressure nozzle is slidably engaged with the tie rod at its corresponding position; an adjusting pressure plate and a docking plate are respectively provided on opposite sides of the two sealing discs; the adjusting pressure plate is rotatably engaged with the sealing disc at its corresponding position, and a second gear ring is provided on one side of the adjusting pressure plate, penetrating the sealing disc, and a third micro motor is provided on the second sleeve to provide power to the second gear ring; a limiting groove is provided on the other side of the adjusting disc to slidably engage with each mounting rod, and a wedge-shaped slider is provided inside the limiting groove to abut against each mounting rod; a docking hole is provided on the docking plate at the corresponding position of each mounting rod, and a return spring is provided inside each docking hole.

[0015] Explanation: The third micro motor drives the adjusting pressure plate to rotate the second gear ring, which in turn makes the adjusting pressure plate rotate on the corresponding unblocking plate. The wedge-shaped slider on the adjusting pressure plate pushes each mounting rod to move back and forth in the docking hole on the docking plate, so that the high-pressure nozzle on each mounting rod can swing on the pull rod, improving the uniformity of the unblocking effect inside the wellbore.

[0016] Furthermore, a ball head is rotatably engaged at the connection between the mounting rod and the wedge-shaped slider;

[0017] Note: By setting a ball head on the mounting rod, not only can the smoothness of the mounting rod's movement be improved, but the wear between the mounting rod and the wedge slider can also be reduced.

[0018] Furthermore, guide discs are provided on the sides of the two sealing discs that are far apart, and several guide wheels are equidistantly distributed around the guide discs.

[0019] Note: By setting guide discs and guide wheels, the sealing component can be prevented from being damaged by friction with the inner wall of the wellbore during its movement inside the wellbore. At the same time, it can also make the sealing component enter the wellbore smoothly, thus improving the reliability of the invention.

[0020] Furthermore, the rotating flexible shaft is fitted with a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant sleeve.

[0021] Note: By installing an anti-corrosion and wear-resistant sleeve on the outside of the rotating flexible shaft, damage caused by the unblocking fluid during use can be prevented.

[0022] Furthermore, a pressure sensor is installed between the two sealing discs, a return pipe is installed inside the connecting hose that penetrates the sealing discs, and a suction pump connected to the return pipe and a monitoring host electrically connected to the pressure sensor are installed outside the horizontal well.

[0023] Explanation: Pressure sensors are used to detect the pressure between the two sealing discs and the wellbore. When the pressure exceeds the preset value, the backflow fluid inside the wellbore is discharged through the backflow pipe, thereby preventing excessive pressure inside the horizontal well from posing a safety threat to the horizontal well.

[0024] Furthermore, each propulsion roller is equipped with anti-slip stripes;

[0025] Note: By setting anti-slip stripes on the push rollers, slippage can be prevented when the connecting hose enters the wellbore, thus improving the unclogging efficiency of horizontal wells.

[0026] This invention also provides a method for enhancing the uniform unblocking and production of coiled tubing in horizontal wells, comprising the following steps:

[0027] S1. Connect the electric push rod, the first micro motor, the expansion assembly and the high-pressure pump to the external power source respectively;

[0028] S2. Fix the base at the wellhead of the horizontal well and make the through hole on the base face the wellhead of the horizontal well; turn on the electric push rod, and after the electric push rod retracts, it will drive each clamping seat to slide on the base and move away from each other;

[0029] S3. Insert the plugging and unplugging components into the horizontal wellbore through the through hole; turn on the electric push rod, so that the electric push rod extends and pulls each clamping seat closer to each other, and makes each push roller abut against the outer wall of the connecting hose; then turn on each first micro motor, and use each first micro motor to drive each push roller to rotate, and finally make the plugging and unplugging components enter the predetermined position inside the horizontal wellbore.

[0030] S4. Activate the two expansion components to expand the rubber sealing bladders on the two sealing discs, thereby achieving a seal between the two sealing discs and the inner wall of the wellbore.

[0031] S5. Turn on the high-pressure pump and use it to inject the external unblocking fluid into each high-pressure nozzle through the unblocking pipe. This will allow for high-pressure injection of the unblocking fluid into the blocked holes inside the horizontal wellbore to unblock them.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are reflected in the following aspects:

[0033] First, the present invention utilizes a propulsion component to continuously insert a connecting hose into the horizontal wellbore, uses two sealing discs to seal the inside of the wellbore, and finally uses a deblocking component to deblock a specific area inside the horizontal well, effectively improving the deblocking effect and efficiency of the horizontal well and increasing the productivity of the horizontal well.

[0034] Secondly, the plugging component of the present invention can reach any area inside the horizontal well under the action of the propulsion component, thereby enabling uniform acidizing and plugging operations in the horizontal well, increasing the effectiveness of acidizing in the horizontal well section, improving reservoir permeability, and enhancing the development effect of the horizontal well.

[0035] Third, this invention utilizes a circulating oscillating high-pressure nozzle to efficiently clean the mud and attached mud cake in the annulus, pores, and fractures of the horizontal well wall, improving the unblocking effect of the horizontal well, increasing the permeability of the formation, thereby increasing the production of the horizontal well and providing economic efficiency.
