Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an anti-collision protection and well-downward thrust device for water injection well testing equipment, belonging to the technical field of water injection well testing. Background Art

[0002] After the oil field is put into development, as the mining time increases, the energy of the oil layer itself will be continuously consumed, and the oil layer pressure will continue to drop, causing a large amount of underground crude oil to be degassed, the viscosity to increase, the oil well production to decrease, and even the spraying and production to stop, resulting in a large amount of dead oil remaining underground that cannot be extracted. In order to make up for the underground deficit caused by the extraction of crude oil, maintain or increase the oil layer pressure, achieve high and stable production of the oil field, and obtain a higher recovery rate, the oil field must be injected with water. In order to accurately monitor or allocate the amount of water injected into the formation, electronic instruments need to be used for testing, so that effective control can be achieved. In order to improve the accuracy of single-layer injection, the use of cable direct reading and allocation technology has become the mainstream process of refined water injection.

[0003] During the well testing process, lifting the cable at the wellhead can easily cause damage to the cable head components and test instruments, affecting signal reception. At the same time, increasing the weight of the downhole test instrument can cause the cable to break in the well and the test instrument to fall into the well, which requires repeated removal of the tested instrument. When replacing the cable head, the wellhead test device must be disassembled first, which will extend the working time and reduce work efficiency.

[0004] When the instrument is lowered into the well, it is difficult to lower the instrument into the wellhead due to the high injection pressure at the wellhead and the light weight of the downhole test instrument. Usually, the well is shut down to stop injection, and the pressure is reduced to release the fluid into the well. This will cause pressure fluctuations in the injection well and affect the accuracy of the test data. At the same time, the liquid flow caused by the release needs to be collected and stored, which has a certain impact on the environment and fails to meet the requirements for environmental protection. Summary of the invention

[0005] At present, new challenges have been raised regarding large overflow, damage to cable head components, difficulty in lowering instruments into the well, and inconvenience for on-site operators. To this end, the present invention proposes an anti-collision protection and reverse thrust device for water injection well testing equipment to prevent collision with cable head components and maintain the testing instrument.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is: an anti-collision protection and reverse thrust device for water injection well testing equipment, a retaining ring is fixed on the outer periphery of a connecting head, a quick connector is sealed and connected to the connecting head, an end of the quick connector is in contact with the retaining ring, a coupling is arranged on the outer periphery of the retaining ring and the quick connector, one end of a choke tube extends into the connecting head and is fixedly connected to the connecting head, a resistance spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the thin end of the choke tube, a center hole a and a center hole b are respectively penetrated in the choke tube and the connecting head, and the center hole a is communicated with the center hole b.

[0007] The center hole a and the center hole b have the same aperture.

[0008] The center hole a is coaxial with the center hole b.

[0009] The resistance spring is longer than the thin end of the choke tube.

[0010] The quick connector and the connector are sealed by an O-ring.

[0011] The O-type sealing ring is an O-type fluororubber sealing ring.

[0012] The quick connector is threadedly connected to the connector.

[0013] The choke tube and the connector are sealed and connected via an O-type fluororubber sealing ring.

[0014] The retaining ring is fixed on the outer periphery of the connecting head by fixing bolts.

[0015] The resistance spring is located at the proximal end of the blowout preventer, and the blowout pipe is located at the wellhead of the water injection well.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: during the testing of the water injection well, by lifting the cable at the wellhead, compressing the spring and then quickly lowering it, the spring forms a reaction force to push the testing instrument down, preventing the cable head from being damaged by collision, thereby reducing the counterweight of the downhole testing instrument, and also reducing the excessive tension on the cable during the lifting and lowering process, avoiding the cable being broken in the well and the testing instrument falling into the well, and solving the problems of preventing the cable head components and the cable from being damaged by collision, and the difficulty in lowering the instrument.
