Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of heavy oil thermal recovery equipment technology in petroleum engineering, specifically to an integrated downhole multi-element thermal fluid generator head. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-element thermal fluid technology is a highly efficient new technology for the thermal extraction of heavy oil. It has the advantages of high combustion efficiency, zero carbon injection, environmental protection and energy saving. The high-temperature multi-element thermal fluid output by the multi-element thermal fluid technology has a comprehensive oil enhancement mechanism, which can significantly improve the production capacity of single wells and increase the crude oil recovery rate.

[0003] Multi-element thermal fluid technology is used in oil sands extraction, and its core equipment is the downhole generator. The downhole generator is a new type of oilfield enhancement equipment based on the surface multi-element thermal fluid generator. This equipment miniaturizes and integrates the surface-mounted multi-element thermal fluid generator, placing it into the oil well to directly generate high-temperature, high-pressure multi-element thermal fluids to improve oil recovery. However, because the downhole generator is installed inside the oil well casing, its maximum outer diameter is limited to 160mm due to the internal space constraints. Furthermore, the small inner diameter of the casing prevents the generator head from being connected to the tubing using existing flanges. In existing downhole generators, water check valves, air pressure sensors, water pressure sensors, and oil pressure sensors are all located on their respective pipelines, resulting in numerous interface locations and potential leakage risks. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the existing technology and provide an integrated downhole multi-element thermal fluid generator head. Based on a concentric tube design, two coaxially adjacent threaded holes (one and two) are designed at the front end to allow direct connection of a concentric tube composed of air and water pipelines with different inner diameters to the generator head. Several water channels are circumferentially distributed on the outer periphery of the head body, maximizing the removal of heat from the generator head by the flowing water, thus preventing overheating. A water check valve, air pressure sensor, water pressure sensor, and oil pressure sensor are all integrated inside the head body, making the generator head an integrated unit. With high precision and significantly reduced size, compared to the method of connecting water check valves, air pressure sensors, water pressure sensors, and oil pressure sensors to pipelines, the number of connection interfaces is significantly reduced, thus reducing the risk of leakage at the interface locations. The oil channel is located on one side of the head body and is connected to a continuous oil pipe through a threaded hole, which is simple to connect and does not interfere with air and water pipelines. The air flowing out of the air channel and the diesel flowing out of the rear outlet of the fuel channel are fully mixed at the rear end of the generator head before being sprayed out, ensuring that the diesel-air mixture sprayed from the generator head is fully combusted in the burner.

[0056] The working principle of the integrated downhole multi-element heat fluid generator head of the present application is as follows:

[0057] The air pipeline with small inner diameter and the water pipeline with large inner diameter are connected to form a concentric pipe, which is directly connected with the generator head, wherein the front end of the generator head is connected with the water pipeline through the threaded hole one 2, connected with the air pipeline through the threaded hole two 3, and connected with the diesel pipeline through the threaded hole three 10-3; the water flow in the water pipeline is sequentially sprayed from the rear end of the generator head through the first inclined pipe section 4-1, the check valve 5 in the first straight pipe section 4-2 and the water nozzle 6, so as to cool the outer wall surface of the inner lining; a part of the air in the air pipeline is sprayed from the rear end of the generator head through the third inclined pipe section 8-1 and the fifth inclined pipe section 8-3, so as to cool the inner wall surface of the inner lining; another part of the air in the air pipeline enters the second inclined pipe section 7-6 through the third inclined pipe section 8-1, the fourth inclined pipe section 8-2 and the annular groove one 7-5; the diesel in the diesel pipeline enters the second inclined pipe section 7-6 through the second straight pipe section 10-1, the third straight pipe section 10-2, the fuel channel 7-1 and the nozzle channel 7-2, and is fully mixed with the air in the second inclined pipe section 7-6, and then is atomized and sprayed into the combustion chamber through the cyclone 9; the ignition device 15 ignites and burns the fine oil droplets entering the combustion chamber.

[0058] The integrated downhole multi-element heat fluid generator head of the present application is based on the concentric pipe mode, and coaxially adjacent threaded hole one and threaded hole two are designed at the front end part, so that the concentric pipe formed by the air pipeline and the water pipeline with two different inner diameter sizes is directly connected with the generator head; a plurality of water channels are annularly and intervally distributed on the outer periphery side of the head body, so that the water flowing through the generator can take away the heat of the generator head to the maximum extent, and the overheating of the generator head is avoided; the water check valve, the air pressure sensor, the water pressure sensor and the oil pressure sensor are integrated in the head body, so that the integrated degree of the generator head is high, and the volume is significantly reduced; compared with the mode that the water check valve, the air pressure sensor, the water pressure sensor and the oil pressure sensor are connected to the pipeline, the connection interface is significantly reduced, and the leakage risk at the interface position is also reduced; the oil channel is located on one side of the head body, and is connected with the continuous oil pipeline through the threaded hole three, and the connection mode is simple and does not interfere with the air pipeline and the water pipeline; the air flow in the air channel and the diesel oil flowing out of the rear end outlet of the fuel channel are fully mixed and sprayed at the rear end of the generator head, so as to ensure that the diesel oil and air mixture sprayed from the generator head can be fully burned in the burner; the structure design is simple and reasonable, the preparation and implementation are feasible, and the practicability is strong.

[0059] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be pointed out that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
