Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil, gas and water separation, and in particular to an oil, gas and water three-phase separation device for oil wells. Background Art
[0002] On the ground, there is a device specifically used to separate the three phases of oil, gas and water in the formation fluid. This device can not only effectively separate the three substances, but also accurately measure their production. When the formation fluid enters the three-phase separator, it will first pass through an inlet diverter to initially separate the liquid from the gas. Under the action of gravity, due to the difference in density between oil and water, the free water will settle to the bottom of the container.
[0003] However, current oil-gas-water separation devices often have insufficient separation efficiency between gas and liquid, or require high costs. During the oil-water separation process, liquid oil sometimes condenses into oil blocks, causing blockage of the equipment. In addition, there is often residual sediment in the filtered water, affecting the water quality. In order to maintain the normal operation of the equipment, the filter plate needs to be replaced regularly during the filtration process, which increases the complexity and cost of maintenance. Therefore, how to improve the separation efficiency of gas and liquid and reduce maintenance work is still a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to solve the defects of the prior art, the present invention provides an oil-gas-water three-phase separation device for oil wells, which can fully separate gas from liquid and at the same time clean the mud and sand in the device to prevent the mud and sand from accumulating in the device.

[0037] Working principle:
[0038] Oil, gas and water enter the guide channel I701 from the inlet 4, collide with the diverter plate I702 and enter the diverter channel I703, merge at the collision plate I704 and collide with the collision plate I704 to enter the guide channel II801, collide with the diverter plate II802 and enter the diverter channel II803, then merge at the collision plate II804 and collide with the collision plate II804 to enter the output channel 9 and fall on the conical plate 10. During the multiple collisions and slow flow of the oil, gas and water in the first separation layer 7 and the second separation layer 8, the gas is separated from the oil and water. The conical plate 10 rotates with the central shaft 13 to separate the gas from the oil and water. Through multiple separations of the first separation layer 7, the second separation layer 8 and the conical plate 10, the gas is completely separated from the oil and water. After separation, the gas rises into the gas outlet 3 for collection, and the oil and water are separated below the conical plate 10. The separated oil is pumped out through the oil outlet 5, and the separated water and sediment sink to the filter chamber 102 through the water outlet I6.
[0039] During the separation process, the side scraper 12 and the electric heating rod 15 rotate to stir the liquid in the separation chamber 101, fully heat the liquid in the separation chamber 101, and prevent the liquid oil from condensing into oil blocks to block the pipeline. The side scraper 12 can scrape the side wall of the separation chamber 101 to prevent the mud and sand from adhering to the side wall of the separation chamber 101 to form dirt. The bottom scraper 11 can clean the mud and sand at the bottom of the separation chamber 101, so that the mud and sand quickly enter the filter chamber 102, and prevent the mud and sand from accumulating at the bottom of the separation chamber 101. The water containing mud and sand is filtered by the filter plate 16 in the filter chamber 102, and the filtered water is discharged from the water outlet II 23. The central shaft 13 at the output end of the motor 14 rotates to drive the bevel gear 19 to rotate, and the bevel gear 20 matched with the bevel gear 19 drives the deflection wheel 22 at the end of the connecting rod 21 to rotate. The rotation of the deflection wheel 22 cooperates with the spring 18 to realize the reciprocating vibration of the filter plate 16, so that the mud and sand on the filter plate 16 are shaken off into the dirt collecting box 24. At regular intervals, the staff can open the sealing window 26 to clean and replace the dirt collecting box 24 in the sewage discharge channel 25, and the filter plate 16 can be cleaned without disassembling the device.
