Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of low-permeability oil and gas reservoir development, and is a visualized flow experimental device and an experimental method for simulating the dynamics of conventional rod pumping. Background Art
[0002] The factors affecting the recovery rate of oil and gas fields include internal factors and external factors. In the process of oil and gas field development, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the internal and external factors of oil and gas fields to maximize the recovery rate of oil and gas fields. Since the oil field is buried underground and is a hidden entity, during the exploitation process, the oil, gas and water inside it are constantly flowing and changing. This rheological property is a feature that other solid mineral deposits do not have. Therefore, to effectively develop oil fields, it is necessary to continuously adjust various measures during the development process to adapt to the changing situation; at the same time, it is necessary to continuously transform the oil layer so that it can change and develop in the direction that people have predetermined and is conducive to development. This is a problem that needs to be continuously studied and solved during the development of oil fields. In addition, during the development of oil fields, there is always a need for engineering technology that can adapt to changes in underground conditions to achieve effective development goals. That is, advanced oil production process technology is needed.
[0003] The rod pumping system is widely used in oil fields at home and abroad. It is the artificial lifting method that has an absolute dominant position in mechanical oil production. The rod pumping technology of the pumping unit is the dominant mechanical oil production method, and its number of wells accounts for about 95% of the total number of artificial lift wells. my country's pumping units, rods, pumps and corresponding supporting technologies have formed a series, among which the pumping units include conventional beam pumping units, special-shaped beam pumping units, extended-distance pumping units, chain pumps and beamless pumping units. The sucker rods include conventional solid pumping rods of various strength levels, hollow pumping rods, continuous pumping rods, wire rope pumping rods and fiberglass pumping rods. According to the requirements of mining and the different properties of fluids, special pumps such as fixed-barrel top fixed-rod pumps, fixed-barrel bottom fixed-rod pumps, movable-barrel bottom fixed-rod pumps, whole-barrel tubular pumps, combined tubular pumps, soft-seal pumps, heavy oil pumps, sand-blocking pumps, gas-proof pumps, corrosion-resistant pumps, double-acting pumps, bridge pumps, and hollow pumps have been developed to form a complete series of oil well pumps. However, due to the increasingly complex reservoirs, the optimization of the rod pumping system parameters urgently needs to be studied.
[0004] The Chinese invention patent document with publication number CN109799105 reports an experimental device and method for a rod pumping system suitable for high gas-liquid ratio oil wells. The experimental device consists of power supply and transmission equipment, gas-liquid supply equipment, data measurement and control and acquisition equipment, experimental pipe string and gas prevention device. However, it mainly needs to find out the applicable gas-liquid ratio limits of various air anchors and anti-air pumps, as well as the limits of the use of various anti-air pumps coupled with air anchors, and finally obtain the applicable gas-liquid ratio limits of various air anchors, anti-air pumps and air anchor coupled anti-air pumps, so as to provide more effective guidance for the production of high gas-liquid ratio oil wells, but cannot solve the judgment of the influence of the operation of the pumping unit on the seepage of the oil reservoir.
[0005] At present, the lifting and drainage system for non-flowing wells mainly relies on experience. Due to the strong heterogeneity of the reservoir, large differences in oil quality, and complex oil-water relationships, it often leads to low lifting efficiency and high costs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The present invention is not limited by the following embodiments, and specific implementation methods can be determined based on the technical solution of the present invention and actual conditions.
[0021] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments: Embodiment 1: As attached Figure 1 As shown, the visualized flow experimental device simulating the dynamics of conventional rod pumping comprises a constant-pressure water supply device, a microscopic displacement device, a measuring tube 12 and a vacuum suction device.

[0022] The present invention can study the bottom hole pressure disturbance caused by the operation of the conventional rod pumping unit and its influence on the reservoir seepage through the visualized flow experimental device simulating the dynamics of conventional rod pumping units, and optimize the best pumping unit parameters under different reservoir conditions, thereby reducing production costs and improving reservoir recovery; it can realize the visualization of reservoir seepage simulation during the experiment, simulate different pumping unit stroke and stroke conditions, and control the influence of the change amplitude of the bottom hole pressure on the seepage, so as to facilitate the observation and study of the influence of the operation of the pumping unit on the reservoir seepage.

[0024] Embodiment 3: As attached Figure 1 As shown, as an optimization of the above embodiment, the float valve 2 includes a small ball and a connecting rod, and the small ball is connected to the water inlet of the water adder 3 through the connecting rod.
[0025] According to the needs, the float valve 2 and the water adder 3 are controlled to add water to the constant pressure water tank 1 at the same time. After a certain amount of water is added to the constant pressure water tank 1, the pressure in the constant pressure water tank 1 is ensured to remain unchanged.
[0026] The main structure of the float valve 2 is a small ball that can float on the water surface. The small ball is connected to the water inlet of the water adder 3 through a connecting rod and controls the opening and closing of the water inlet. When the small ball and the connecting rod are in a horizontal state, the water inlet remains closed; when the small ball falls as the liquid level in the constant pressure water tank 1 drops, the small ball and the connecting rod deviate from the horizontal direction, and the water inlet will open to add water to the constant pressure water tank 1 until the liquid level returns to the original height and then stop adding water, thereby ensuring that the pressure in the constant pressure water tank 1 remains unchanged, and the liquid level in the constant pressure water tank 1 is relatively easy to measure.
[0027] Embodiment 4: As attached Figure 1 As shown, as an optimization of the above embodiment, the microscopic displacement device includes a camera 7, a microscopic experimental stand 8, a bottom light source 9, a glass etching model 10 and a computer 11. The bottom light source 9 and the glass etching model 10 are placed on the platform at the bottom of the microscopic experimental stand 8. The camera 7 is provided on the bracket at the top of the microscopic experimental stand 8. The camera 7 is electrically connected to the computer 11. A first water supply pipeline 5 is connected between the bottom outlet of the constant pressure water tank 1 and the inlet of the glass etching model 10.

[0028] According to the need, the microscopic displacement device is connected with the constant pressure water supply device to simulate the seepage process of the oil reservoir. The camera 7 cooperates with the bottom light source 9 to shoot the seepage displacement process of the glass etching model 10, and the computer 11 observes and records the seepage process.

[0030] According to the needs, the mouth of the vacuum bottle 16 is sealed with a rubber stopper 23 to ensure the air tightness of the vacuum suction device, and the vacuum gauge 22 connected to the mouth of the bottle can measure the vacuum pressure.
[0031] Among them, the solenoid valve 19 is connected with a pressure sensor 20 and a solenoid valve controller 21. The pressure sensor 20 can measure the pressure at both ends of the solenoid valve 19. The solenoid valve controller 21 controls the frequency of opening and closing of the solenoid valve 19, such as controlling the solenoid valve 19 to open for 20 seconds and close for 20 seconds. The frequency of the solenoid valve 19 is 0.025Hz, which can simulate the different strokes and strokes of conventional rod pumping units and control the amplitude of the change of the bottom hole pressure. When the solenoid valve 19 is opened, the vacuum pump 17 starts to work, a negative pressure will be formed in the vacuum bottle 16, and the liquid in the measuring cylinder 12 will be pumped into the vacuum bottle 16 through the vacuum hose 13. When the vacuum solenoid valve 19 is closed, the vacuum pump 17 stops working, the pressure in the vacuum bottle 16 will remain unchanged, and no liquid will be discharged into the vacuum bottle 16. This process can simulate the up and down strokes of the rod pump.

The measuring tube 12 is also equipped with valve groups 14 at different heights. Opening the valves at different heights of the valve group 14 can control different liquid level heights in the measuring tube 12, simulating the production of constant bottom flow pressure in different oil production processes. The liquid discharged by the valve group 14 flows into the water tank 15.
