AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the downhole injection process of the water-gas dispersion system, solid particles in the injection string clog the micropore structure of the dispersion device, resulting in increased injection pressure and device failure. Existing technologies cannot effectively solve this problem.

Method used

A constant-pressure discharge device is designed. By utilizing the pressure change during the gas injection process, the selective piston and the eccentric piston cooperate to discharge solid particles at low pressure and form microbubbles that enter the formation at high pressure. The device includes an integral structural block, a spring, a one-way plug, a selective piston and an eccentric piston.

Benefits of technology

The solid phase particles in the pipe column are cleaned in time during each gas injection cycle to avoid blockage and ensure the normal operation of the dispersion system generating device. The device has a simple structure and is easy to install and operate.

Abstract

The present invention discloses a constant-pressure discharge device and method suitable for downhole injection of a dispersed system. The device includes an integral structural block, a spring, a one-way plug, a selective piston, and an eccentric piston. The selective piston is fixed at the center position of the integral structural block by the spring, and the eccentric piston is fixed at the eccentric position of the integral structural block by the spring; the one-way plug is connected to the low-pressure channel of the integral structural block. The present invention proposes a constant-pressure discharge method, which discharges pollutants from the tubing string under relatively low pressure conditions. When the pressure rises, the gas re-enters the dispersed system generation device. The present invention utilizes the process of injection pressure changing from low to high during gas injection. The device of the present invention is simple in structure and the method contributes to the smooth application of water-gas dispersed system oil recovery technology.
