Description

Technical Field

[0002] Oil testing is a term used exclusively for oil well exploration or newly drilled oil wells, which is different from conventional oil well production. Oil testing is the ground testing and control process during the oil well blowout and drainage process after the drilling and fracturing of a new oil well is completed, thereby determining the subsequent stable production of the oil well or the block. At present, all the outlets of oil well metering devices are gas-liquid mixed outputs, but in oil testing, the gas-liquid path needs to be branched, that is, the liquid path enters the pipeline or the storage tank, and the gas path needs to be discharged through combustion. At this time, the pressures of the two paths are completely different. Therefore, conventional oil well metering devices are not applicable in oil testing. The prior art is to add a set of gas-liquid separators at the rear end of the oil well metering device to achieve gas and liquid path separation. This method has two disadvantages: 1. The ground pipeline process is complicated, the floor space is large, and many people are occupied. In addition, the two devices are not linked. The operation of the rear-end gas-liquid separator will cause pipeline pressure fluctuations, thereby causing the front-end oil well metering device to fail or malfunction; 2. In the liquid-gas metering of the front-end oil well metering device, the gas separation effect is poor, and the gas metering is actually inaccurate. In view of the above problems, an integrated device of automatic metering and gas-liquid branch output for oil testing is proposed. Summary of the invention

The first electric three-way valve 6 and the second electric three-way valve 7 are both L-type three-way valves. The conduction switching between the middle port and the two side ports of the three-way valve is achieved by rotating the electric valve. Therefore, the first tank body 3 and the second tank body 8 form a liquid metering tank.

[0013] The side walls of the first tank body 3, the second tank body 8 and the third tank body 10 are connected to the first differential pressure transmitter 4, the second differential pressure transmitter 9 and the third differential pressure transmitter 11 respectively. When working, the first differential pressure transmitter 4, the second differential pressure transmitter 9 and the third differential pressure transmitter 11 are used to measure the liquid volume in the first tank body 3, the second tank body 8 and the third tank body 10 respectively, thereby using the values ​​measured by the first differential pressure transmitter 4 and the second differential pressure transmitter 9 to realize the conduction switching of the first electric three-way valve 6 and the second electric three-way valve 7, and according to the measurement signal of the third differential pressure transmitter 11, the control The actions of the first electric regulating valve 13 and the second electric regulating valve 18 are controlled to maintain a certain amount of liquid storage in the third tank 10, so that the gas and liquid are completely separated. The first differential pressure transmitter 4, the second differential pressure transmitter 9, the third differential pressure transmitter 11, the first electric three-way valve 6, the water content analyzer 2 and the second electric three-way valve 7 are all connected to the automatic control box 14 through cables. When working, the automatic control box 14 collects signals, calculates liquid flow, and controls the actions of the first electric three-way valve 6, the second electric three-way valve 7, the first electric regulating valve 13, and the second electric regulating valve 18.

[0014] The top of the third tank body 10 is connected to one end of a gas output pipe 16, on which a gas flow meter 12, a first electric regulating valve 13 and a first common valve 15 are sequentially arranged. The gas output pipe 16, the gas flow meter 12, the first electric regulating valve 13 and the first common valve 15 connected to the gas outlet at the top of the third tank body 10 form a gas circuit.

[0015] The lower liquid outlet of the third tank body 10 is connected to one end of the liquid output pipe 19, and a second electric regulating valve 18 is arranged on the liquid output pipe 19. A second common valve 17 is installed between the gas output pipe 16 and the liquid output pipe 19. The gas flow meter 12, the first electric regulating valve 13 and the second electric regulating valve 18 are also connected to the automatic control box 14 through cables. During operation, the automatic control box 14 collects the signal of the gas flow meter 12 and calculates the gas flow. The liquid output pipe 19 and the second electric regulating valve 18 connected to the lower liquid outlet of the third tank body 10 form a liquid circuit.

By operating the opening and closing of the first common valve 15 and the second common valve 17, the branched gas and liquid can also be output from the liquid circuit in parallel.

[0016] The working principle of the present invention is: The liquid-gas mixture produced by the oil well enters the water analyzer 2 through the liquid inlet pipe 1, and the water content of the oil well mixture is measured by the water analyzer 2. After passing through the water analyzer 2, the oil well liquid-gas mixture enters the first electric three-way valve 6. Under the control of the automatic control box 14, the first electric three-way valve 6 guides the liquid-gas mixture from the oil well to the first tank body 3. The second electric three-way valve 7, under the control of the automatic control box 14, acts in the opposite direction to the first electric three-way valve 6, closes the outlet of the first tank body 3, and connects the outlet of the second tank body 8. Liquid and gas enter the first tank body 3, and the liquid accumulates and is stored in the first tank body 3. The gas enters the second tank body 8 through the top connecting pipe 5, and is discharged through its outlet and the second electric three-way valve 7. The first differential pressure transmitter 4 measures the liquid storage amount in the first tank body 3 in real time, and the signal is transmitted to the automatic control box 14 to realize the measurement of the liquid inflow amount of the first tank body 3; After the liquid storage volume of the first tank body 3 reaches a certain value, the automatic control box 14 controls the first electric three-way valve 6 and the second electric three-way valve 7 to switch, the first electric three-way valve 6 connects the inlet of the second tank body 8 and closes the inlet of the first tank body 3 at the same time, the second electric three-way valve 7 connects the outlet of the first tank body 3 and closes the outlet of the second tank body 8 at the same time, the second tank body 8 starts to take in liquid and store liquid, the second differential pressure transmitter 9 measures the liquid storage volume in the second tank body 8, the gas enters the first tank body 3 through the top connecting pipe 5, and forces the liquid in the first tank body 3 to be discharged through its outlet and the second electric three-way valve 7; After the liquid storage volume of the second tank body 8 reaches a certain value, under the control of the automatic control box 14, the first electric three-way valve 6 and the second electric three-way valve 7 are switched, and the first tank body 3 starts to fill with liquid and store liquid, and the second tank body 8 is emptied. Thus, through the repeated storage and discharge of liquid in the first tank body 3 and the second tank body 8, the liquid volume of the oil well is continuously measured, and the oil well mixed liquid enters the third tank body 10, and the third tank body 10 separates the oil well liquid and gas again, and the first common valve 15 is opened to allow the gas to be discharged through the gas output pipe 16, and the gas flow meter 12 is used to measure the gas production when the gas is discharged, and the first electric regulating valve 13 is used to control the gas output.
