Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of oil field development, and in particular to a downhole gas anchor with self-adaptation capability. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, as the development of oil fields continues, the gas content of oil wells will gradually increase, and the increase in the gas-liquid ratio will become an irreversible trend. As the gas-liquid ratio increases, on the one hand, the gas will enter the inside of the oil well pump, occupying the liquid volume and reducing the working performance of the oil well pump; on the other hand, the gas will gradually accumulate inside the oil well pump, making it impossible for the floating valve to open normally, forming a "gas lock" phenomenon, making it impossible for the oil well pump to work normally, affecting continuous production and reducing the liquid production of the oil well. At present, the oil well pump is mainly prevented from gas lock by the following two methods: one is to develop an oil well pump that can prevent gas lock so that the gas can be discharged freely; the other is to use high-efficiency downhole gas anchors to separate gas and liquid at the pump inlet to reduce the volume of gas entering the oil well pump. To this end, an adaptive downhole gas anchor was invented and applied to high gas-liquid ratio oil wells under gas drive and other displacement methods. Through the special gas anchor structure, the gas anchor can self-adjust the gas-liquid separation capacity according to the liquid production, maintain the efficient operation of the gas anchor, reduce the inlet gas volume of the oil pump, improve the pump efficiency, and maintain the normal production of the oil well.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No.: CN102704907A discloses a pumping well gas anchor, including an upper joint, a shunt joint, an oil outlet pipe, an outer tube, a lower joint, an exhaust valve ball, and a mixed liquid inlet pipe. An outer connecting groove is opened on the side of the upper part of the outer tube, and an inner connecting groove is opened on the side of the shunt joint. The shunt joint is fixed in the upper part of the outer tube, and the inner connecting groove is aligned with the outer connecting groove. The upper part of the outer tube is connected with the lower part of the upper joint. The upper joint is a hollow structure, and an inner screw is arranged on the upper part of the upper joint. An oil outlet eccentric hole and an exhaust eccentric hole are arranged in the shunt joint. The exhaust eccentric hole is connected with the inner connecting groove and the outer connecting groove. An exhaust valve ball is arranged in the exhaust eccentric hole. The channel formed by the exhaust eccentric hole, the inner connecting groove and the outer connecting groove is one-way connected. The upper end of the oil outlet pipe is installed in the oil outlet eccentric hole of the diverter joint and fixed to the diverter joint as a whole. The oil outlet pipe is connected to the interior of the upper joint through the oil outlet eccentric hole. The oil outlet pipe is in the outer cylinder. The lower part of the mixed liquid inlet pipe is installed in the eccentric hole of the lower joint. The mixed liquid inlet pipe is connected to the lower part of the lower joint. The mixed liquid inlet pipe is inserted into the outer cylinder. The upper part of the lower joint is connected to the lower part of the outer cylinder. The oil outlet pipe and the mixed liquid inlet pipe are parallel in the outer cylinder, so that a flow channel is formed in the outer cylinder. The flow channel is connected to the lower part of the oil outlet pipe, and the flow channel is connected to the upper part of the mixed liquid inlet pipe. It can be seen that the pumping well gas anchor has the problem that the liquid separation ability of the gas anchor is reduced due to insufficient gas-liquid separation, resulting in a reduced working efficiency of the gas anchor. Summary of the invention
[0004] To this end, the present invention provides a downhole air anchor with self-adaptation capability to overcome the problem in the prior art that insufficient gas-liquid separation leads to a decrease in the liquid separation capability of the air anchor and a decrease in the working efficiency of the air anchor.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a downhole air anchor with self-adaptability, comprising: An outer tube for introducing a gas-liquid mixed medium, including a gas anchor liquid inlet for providing a passage for the gas-liquid mixed medium to enter the inner part of the outer tube; A gas-liquid separation mechanism connected to the outer tube for separating the gas and liquid of the gas-liquid mixed medium, comprising a positive spiral blade for changing the flow direction of the gas-liquid mixed medium to form a primary separation oil liquid, a reverse spiral blade arranged below the positive spiral blade for changing the flow direction of the primary separation oil liquid to form a secondary separation oil liquid, and an adaptive sedimentation separation component arranged below the reverse spiral blade for changing the size of the gas-liquid separation space according to the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium introduced into the outer tube to form a tertiary separation oil liquid; The adaptive sedimentation separation component includes a movable baffle disposed below the reverse spiral blade for gravity sedimentation separation of the secondary separation oil to form a tertiary separation oil, and a sealing spring chamber disposed below the movable baffle for automatically adjusting the vertical distance from the lower end of the reverse spiral blade to the movable baffle according to the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium; An inner tube, which is movably connected to a part of the gas-liquid separation mechanism and is used to discharge the liquid after the gas-liquid mixed medium is separated by the gas-liquid separation mechanism, includes an inner tube liquid inlet arranged above the adaptive sedimentation separation component to provide a channel for the three-stage separated oil outside the inner tube to enter the inner tube, and an inner tube outlet arranged above the positive spiral blade to provide an oil pumping position for the oil pump.
[0006] Furthermore, the acute angle between the blade root of the positive spiral blade and the horizontal direction is 25°, and the acute angle between the blade root of the reverse spiral blade and the horizontal direction is 25°.
[0007] Further, the sealing spring chamber comprises: A spring assembly connected to the movable baffle plate, which changes the gravity settling space of the oil by changing the vertical position of the movable baffle plate; The sealing component is arranged outside the spring component to seal the space where the spring is located.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a base connected to the spring assembly for supporting and fixing the spring assembly.
[0009] Furthermore, the spring assembly is fixedly connected to the movable baffle and the base respectively.
[0010] Furthermore, the spring assembly includes a plurality of springs which are arranged at equal intervals in the space between the inner tube and the outer tube according to the axis of the base.
[0011] Furthermore, the sealing assembly includes several layers of inner sealing members and outer sealing members.
[0012] Furthermore, the inner layer sealing members are arranged on the outer wall of the inner tube at equal intervals in the vertical direction, and the outer layer sealing members are arranged on the inner wall of the outer tube at equal intervals in the vertical direction.
[0013] Furthermore, the inner sealing member and the outer sealing member are both in annular shape, the inner diameter of the inner sealing member is equal to the outer wall diameter of the inner tube, and the outer diameter of the outer sealing member is equal to the inner wall diameter of the outer tube.
[0014] Furthermore, when the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium is greater than a preset weight, the movable baffle moves in a vertical downward direction as the spring assembly is compressed.
[0015] Furthermore, the movable baffle does not move when the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium is less than the preset weight.
[0016] Furthermore, the preset weight is the ratio of the product of the spring coefficient of the spring assembly and the telescopic length of the spring assembly in the vertical direction after compression to the acceleration of gravity.
[0017] Furthermore, a vertical distance between the axis of the reverse spiral blade and the axis of the forward spiral blade is smaller than a vertical distance between the axis of the reverse spiral blade and the movable baffle.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present invention lies in that the system of the present invention, by arranging an outer tube, an inner tube and a gas-liquid separation mechanism, the gas-liquid mixed medium inside the oil well passes through positive spiral blades and reverse spiral blades with opposite rotation directions, and the positive spiral blades are used to realize the swirl and acceleration of the gas-liquid mixed medium, and the primary separation of gas and liquid is carried out, and the reverse spiral blades are used to realize the secondary separation of gas and liquid, and the gas-liquid mixed medium is decelerated, and the vertical distance between the reverse spiral blades and the movable baffle is used to realize the tertiary separation of the gas-liquid mixed medium by gravity sedimentation, and the gas-liquid mixed medium is fully separated by centrifugal force, inertial force and gravity. The movable baffle adaptively adjusts the gravity sedimentation height according to the gravity of the gas-liquid mixed medium, thereby increasing the gravity sedimentation effect, improving the working efficiency of the air anchor, and further increasing the gas-liquid separation capacity of the air anchor.
[0019] Furthermore, the system described in the present invention provides an outer tube and an inner tube, and the gas-liquid mixed medium inside the oil well enters the annular space between the inner wall of the outer tube and the outer wall of the inner tube through the liquid inlet hole on the outer tube of the gas anchor, and the separated gas floats to the gas anchor liquid inlet and is discharged, and a small amount of gas after three separations enters the inner tube through the inner tube gas-liquid port along with a large amount of liquid, and is supplied to the oil pump and pumped to the inner tube outlet, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the oil pump and improving the gas-liquid separation efficiency.
[0020] Furthermore, the system described in the present invention provides a sealed spring chamber to perform a third gas-liquid separation on the gas-liquid mixed medium by its own gravity. When the gas-liquid mixed medium acts on the movable baffle by gravity, it will expand and contract, thereby driving the movable baffle to move up and down. By changing the vertical distance between the bottom of the anti-spiral blade and the movable baffle to adapt to the change in the processing volume of the gas-liquid mixed medium, the available space for the third gravity separation is increased, and the overall gas-liquid separation efficiency of the air anchor is further improved.
[0021] Furthermore, the system described in the present invention sets a preset weight. Since the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium entering the air anchor at a single time is different, when the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium exceeds the preset weight, the gas-liquid separation efficiency in the original falling vertical space decreases. The movable baffle moves downward with the compression of the spring assembly in the sealing spring chamber, thereby increasing the vertical distance from the lower end of the anti-spiral blade to the movable baffle, and further enhancing the tertiary gravity sedimentation separation effect.

[0028] Embodiment 1, Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a downhole air anchor with self-adaptation capability, comprising: The outer tube 2 is used to introduce a gas-liquid mixed medium, including a gas anchor liquid inlet 1 for providing a passage for the gas-liquid mixed medium to enter the inner part of the outer tube 2; A gas-liquid separation mechanism connected to the outer tube 2 for separating the gas and liquid of the gas-liquid mixed medium, comprising a positive spiral blade 3 for changing the flow direction of the gas-liquid mixed medium to form a primary separation oil liquid, a reverse spiral blade 4 arranged below the positive spiral blade 3 for changing the flow direction of the primary separation oil liquid to form a secondary separation oil liquid, and an adaptive sedimentation separation component arranged below the reverse spiral blade 4 for changing the size of the gas-liquid separation space according to the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium introduced into the outer tube 2 to form a tertiary separation oil liquid; The adaptive sedimentation separation component includes a movable baffle 7 disposed below the reverse spiral blade 4 for gravity sedimentation separation of the secondary separation oil to form a tertiary separation oil, and a sealing spring chamber 9 disposed below the movable baffle 7 for automatically adjusting the vertical distance from the lower end of the reverse spiral blade 4 to the movable baffle 7 according to the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium; The inner tube 5 is movably connected to a part of the gas-liquid separation mechanism and is used to discharge the liquid after the gas-liquid mixed medium is separated by the gas-liquid separation mechanism. It includes an inner tube liquid inlet 6 arranged above the adaptive sedimentation separation component to provide a channel for the three-stage separated oil outside the inner tube 5 to enter the inner tube 5, and an inner tube outlet 10 arranged above the positive spiral blade 3 to provide an oil pumping position for the oil pump 13.
[0029] In practice, the working process of the system of the present invention is as follows: the gas-liquid mixed medium enters the outer tube 2 from the gas anchor liquid inlet 1, flows through the positive spiral blades 3 to generate positive swirl and acceleration, flows through the reverse spiral blades 4 to generate reverse swirl and acceleration, settles to the movable baffle 7 in the outer tube 2 by gravity, and then enters the inner tube 5 from the inner tube liquid inlet 6, is pumped by the oil pump 13 to the inner tube outlet 10 and flows out.
[0030] In practice, the system of the present invention is provided with an outer tube 2, an inner tube 5 and a gas-liquid separation mechanism. The gas-liquid mixed medium inside the oil well passes through the positive spiral blades 3 and the reverse spiral blades 4 with opposite rotation directions. The positive spiral blades 3 are used to realize the swirl and acceleration of the gas-liquid mixed medium, and the primary separation of gas and liquid is carried out. The reverse spiral blades 4 are used to realize the secondary separation of gas and liquid, and the gas-liquid mixed medium is decelerated. The vertical distance between the reverse spiral blades 4 and the movable baffle 7 is used to realize the tertiary separation of the gas-liquid mixed medium by gravity sedimentation. The gas-liquid mixed medium is fully separated by centrifugal force, inertial force and gravity, thereby improving the working efficiency of the air anchor and further increasing the gas-liquid separation capacity of the air anchor.
[0031] Specifically, the acute angle between the blade root of the positive spiral blade 3 and the horizontal direction is 25°, and the acute angle between the blade root of the reverse spiral blade 4 and the horizontal direction is 25°.
[0032] Specifically, the sealing spring chamber 9 includes: A spring assembly connected to the movable baffle 7, which changes the vertical position of the movable baffle 7 to change the gravity settling space of the oil; The sealing assembly 8 is arranged outside the spring assembly to seal the space where the spring is located.
[0033] Specifically, it also includes a base 11 connected to the spring assembly for supporting and fixing the spring assembly.
[0034] Specifically, the spring assembly is fixedly connected to the movable baffle 7 and the base 11 respectively.
[0035] In practice, the system of the present invention is provided with an outer tube 2 and an inner tube 5, and the gas-liquid mixed medium inside the oil well enters the annular space between the inner wall of the outer tube 2 and the outer wall of the inner tube 5 through the liquid inlet hole on the gas anchor outer tube 2, and the separated gas floats to the gas anchor liquid inlet 1 for discharge, and a small amount of gas after three separations enters the inner tube 5 through the gas-liquid port of the inner tube 5 along with a large amount of liquid, and is supplied to the oil pump 13 to be pumped to the inner tube outlet 10, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the oil pump 13 and improving the gas-liquid separation efficiency.
[0036] Specifically, the spring assembly includes a plurality of springs which are arranged at equal intervals in the space between the inner tube 5 and the outer tube 2 according to the axis of the base 11 .
[0037] In practice, the system of the present invention sets a sealing spring chamber 9 to perform a third gas-liquid separation on the gas-liquid mixed medium by its own gravity. When the gas-liquid mixed medium acts on the movable baffle 7 by gravity, it will expand and contract, thereby driving the movable baffle 7 to move up and down. By changing the vertical distance between the bottom of the anti-spiral blade 4 and the movable baffle 7 to adapt to the change in the processing volume of the gas-liquid mixed medium, the available space for the third gravity separation is increased, and the overall gas-liquid separation efficiency of the air anchor is further improved.
[0038] Specifically, the sealing assembly 8 includes several layers of inner sealing members and outer sealing members.
[0039] Specifically, the inner layer sealing members are arranged on the outer wall of the inner tube 5 at equal intervals in the vertical direction, and the outer layer sealing members are arranged on the inner wall of the outer tube 2 at equal intervals in the vertical direction.
[0040] Specifically, the inner sealing member and the outer sealing member are both annular, the inner diameter of the inner sealing member is equal to the outer wall diameter of the inner tube 5 , and the outer diameter of the outer sealing member is equal to the inner wall diameter of the outer tube 2 .
[0041] Specifically, seals are made of rubber, PTFE, metal and composite materials.
[0042] Specifically, when the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium is greater than a preset weight, the movable baffle moves in a vertical downward direction as the spring assembly is compressed.
[0043] Specifically, the preset weight is the ratio of the product of the stiffness coefficient of the spring component and the telescopic length of the spring component in the vertical direction after compression to the acceleration of gravity.
[0044] In implementation, for example, the stiffness coefficient of the spring component is 400 N / m, and the movement distance of the spring component after compression is 0.05 meters, and the preset weight is 2.04 kg.
[0045] Specifically, a vertical distance between the axis of the reverse spiral blade 4 and the axis of the forward spiral blade 3 is smaller than a vertical distance between the axis of the reverse spiral blade 4 and the movable baffle 7 .
[0046] In practice, the system of the present invention sets a preset weight. Since the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium entering the air anchor at a single time is different, when the weight of the gas-liquid mixed medium exceeds the preset weight, the gas-liquid separation efficiency in the original falling vertical space decreases. The movable baffle 77 moves downward with the compression of the spring assembly in the sealing spring chamber 99, thereby increasing the vertical distance from the lower end of the anti-spiral blade 44 to the movable baffle 77, and further enhancing the tertiary gravity sedimentation separation effect.
[0047] Embodiment 2, embodiment 2 of the present invention is further provided with a pump 13, a delivery mechanism, a detection mechanism and a controller on the basis of embodiment 1, the delivery mechanism includes a delivery pipeline 14 for delivering oil to the pump and a flow valve 15 connected to the delivery pipeline 14 for controlling the flow of the three-stage separated oil output from the inner tube to the delivery pipeline 14; the detection mechanism includes a vibration sensor 12 connected to the gas-liquid separation mechanism for detecting the vibration frequency of the movable baffle, and a pipeline connected to the delivery pipeline 14 for detecting the vibration frequency of the delivery pipeline 14. A vibration sensor 17 and a pressure sensor 16 connected to the delivery pipeline 14 for detecting the oil pressure of the three-stage separation oil in the delivery pipeline 14, and a controller respectively connected to the outer tube 2 and the gas-liquid separation mechanism, for determining whether the stability of the gas-liquid separation meets the requirements according to the vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7, and when it is determined that it does not meet the requirements, adjusting the pumping speed of the oil pump 13 and issuing a damage warning to the positive spiral blades 3 and the reverse spiral blades 4, or adjusting the minimum opening pressure of the flow valve 15 according to the vibration frequency of the delivery pipeline 14.
[0048] Specifically, the inner tube 5 and the oil pump 13 are connected by a delivery pipeline 14 , and a flow valve 15 and a pipeline vibration sensor 17 are provided on the delivery pipeline 14 .
[0049] Specifically, the pressure sensor 16 is provided between the flow valve 15 and the inner tube outlet 10 .
[0050] Specifically, a vibration sensor 12 is disposed below the movable baffle 7 to detect the vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 .
[0051] Specifically, the vibration sensor 12 and the pipeline vibration sensor 17 are piezoelectric crystals or accelerometers.
[0052] Specifically, the controller is a PLC controller.
[0053] Specifically, the controller is connected to the vibration sensor 12 and the oil pump 13 respectively to obtain the single vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7. If the single vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 is greater than the preset second vibration frequency, the oil pumping speed of the oil pump 13 is increased.
[0054] Specifically, the increase range of the oil pumping speed of the oil pump 13 is determined according to the difference between the single vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 and the preset vibration frequency.
[0055] In implementation, the general value range of the preset second vibration frequency is [12 Hz, 16 Hz].
[0056] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset second vibration frequency is 14 Hz.
[0057] Specifically, when the difference between the single vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 and the preset vibration frequency is within 2 Hz, the pumping speed of the oil pump 13 increases by 20 L / min; when the difference between the single vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 and the preset vibration frequency exceeds 2 Hz, the pumping speed of the oil pump 13 increases by 15 L / min for every 1 Hz exceeding it. For example, the single vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 is 18 Hz. Currently, the pumping speed of the oil pump 13 is 400 L / min, and the pumping speed of the oil pump 13 increases to 400 L / min+20 L / min+15 L / min×2=450 L / min.
[0058] Specifically, the controller is also used to determine whether there is damage in the positive spiral blade 3 and the reverse spiral blade 4 when the single vibration frequency of the moving baffle is greater than the preset first vibration frequency, and issue a damage warning.
[0059] In implementation, the general value range of the preset first vibration frequency is [8 Hz, 10 Hz].
[0060] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset first vibration frequency is 8.5 Hz.
[0061] In practice, by setting a damage warning, the vertical flow velocity or rotational flow velocity of the liquid entering the air anchor is accelerated due to damage or bending in the positive spiral blades 3 and the reverse spiral blades 4, which in turn causes the flow velocity of the oil at the bottom to be unstable or may steadily increase, causing the vibration frequency of the movable baffle 7 to increase, affecting the separation interface between the oil and the gas, causing the separated gas to be re-mixed into the oil, reducing the separation efficiency, and reducing the contact time of the oil and gas at the separation interface by increasing the pumping speed of the oil pump 13. At the same time, when the vibration of the movable baffle 7 is too severe, it will cause the wear of the mechanical parts in the sedimentation equipment to increase, thereby affecting the normal operation and separation effect of the equipment.
[0062] Specifically, the controller is connected to the flow valve 15 , the pressure sensor 16 and the pipeline vibration sensor 17 , so as to increase the minimum opening pressure of the flow valve 15 when the vibration frequency of the delivery pipeline 14 is greater than the preset pipeline vibration frequency.
[0063] In practice, the general range of preset pipeline vibration frequency is [800 Hz, 1200 Hz].
[0064] Preferably, the preferred embodiment of the preset pipeline vibration frequency is 1000 Hz.
[0065] Specifically, when the vibration frequency of the delivery pipeline 14 and the preset pipeline vibration frequency are within 100 Hz, the minimum opening pressure of the flow valve 15 increases to 1.05 times the original; when the vibration frequency of the delivery pipeline 14 and the preset pipeline vibration frequency exceed 100 Hz, the minimum opening pressure of the flow valve 15 increases by 10 kPa for every 100 Hz exceeding. For example, the vibration frequency of the delivery pipeline 14 is 1200 Hz. Currently, the minimum opening pressure of the flow valve 15 is 400 kPa, and the minimum opening pressure of the flow valve 15 increases to 400 kPa×1.05+10 kPa=430 kPa.
[0066] So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
