[0002] When the concentric coiled tubing is put into the well for negative pressure sand flushing, part of the liquid carries the sand accumulated in the wellbore and returns through the inner tube of the sand flushing tool. In order to avoid conflict with the flow direction of the sand flushing fluid in the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing, it is necessary to convert the flow direction of the fluid between the inner tube and the annulus. At the same time, the operation occasionally encounters an emergency situation that causes the concentric coiled tubing to be damaged or broken. At this time, the oil and gas pressure in the well is greater than the ground pressure. The oil and gas in the well spray out from the ruptured and broken parts of the tubing through the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing and the annulus, causing a blowout accident.

[0085] A double-layer tube internal and external fluid conversion unison check valve, the specific implementation method is as follows:

[0086] Before use, complete the assembly of the double-layer tube internal and external fluid conversion unison check valve. First, connect the upper valve core 4 with the valve stem 5, nest the return spring 3 on the valve stem 5, pass the lower end of the valve stem 5 through the nineteenth channel 019, install the lower valve core 8 and the nut 7 inside the sixth channel 06, install the third annular space sealing sheet 13 and the fourth annular space sealing sheet 14 at the corresponding positions on the upper end surface of the reversing valve body 6, and then install the upper inner pipe joint 2 and the upper outer pipe joint 1 in sequence, so that the lower ends of the upper outer pipe joint 1 and the upper inner pipe joint 2 are pressed tightly against the third annular space sealing sheet. 13. The fourth annular space sealing piece 14 is used to seal the upper end of the thirteenth channel 013 and the upper end of the fourteenth channel 014; the first annular space sealing piece 11 and the second annular space sealing piece 12 are installed at the corresponding positions on the lower end surface of the reversing valve body 6, and then the lower inner pipe joint 10 and the lower outer pipe joint 9 are installed in sequence, so that the upper ends of the lower outer pipe joint 9 and the lower inner pipe joint 10 are pressed tightly on the first annular space sealing piece 11 and the second annular space sealing piece 12 to achieve the sealing of the lower end of the eleventh channel 011 and the lower end of the twelfth channel 012, and the assembly is completed.

[0087] When in use, the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing is threadedly connected to the second channel 02, the outer tube of the concentric coiled tubing is threadedly connected to the upper end of the first channel 01, the inner tube of the sand flushing tool is threadedly connected to the tenth channel 010, and the outer tube of the sand flushing tool is threadedly connected to the lower end of the ninth channel 09. Tighten them to the appropriate torque to complete the connection between the double-layer tube internal and external fluid conversion anisotropic connecting check valve and the concentric coiled tubing and the sand flushing tool.

[0088] When the concentric coiled tubing is performing downhole operations, the first fluid enters the fourth channel 04 of the upper inner pipe joint 2 through the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing, the first fluid applies a downward thrust to the upper valve core 4, the return spring 3 is compressed, and the upper valve core 4 drives the valve stem 5 to push the lower valve core 8 to move axially downward along the sixth channel 06 through the nineteenth channel 019, so that the fifteenth channel 015, the sixteenth channel 016, the seventeenth channel 017, and the eighteenth channel 018 are opened synchronously, so that the first fluid enters the thirteenth channel 013 and the fourteenth channel 014 from the fourth channel 04 and the fifth channel 05 through the fifteenth channel 015 and the sixteenth channel 016, and finally enters the annulus of the sand flushing tool through the eighth channel 08, thereby realizing the one-way conversion of the first fluid from the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing to the annulus of the sand flushing tool.

[0089] At the same time, the second fluid (sand-carrying fluid) in the inner tube of the sand flushing tool successively enters the seventh channel 07, the sixth channel 06, passes through the through hole 81 and the opened seventeenth channel 017 and the eighteenth channel 018, enters the eleventh channel 011, the twelfth channel 012, and finally enters the annulus of the concentric coiled tubing through the third channel 03, thereby realizing the one-way conversion of the second fluid from the inner tube of the sand flushing tool to the annulus of the concentric coiled tubing.

[0090] When an accident occurs and the upper part of the concentric coiled tubing is damaged or broken, the pressure in the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing decreases, the reset spring 3 pushes up, the upper valve core 4 moves up to the highest position, the side of the upper valve core 4 blocks the fifteenth channel 015 and the sixteenth channel 016, and the lower valve core 8 blocks the seventeenth channel 017 and the eighteenth channel 018. At this time, the bottom hole high-pressure fluid cannot enter the concentric coiled tubing from the annulus of the sand flushing tool and the inner tube of the sand flushing tool. The double-layer tube internal and external fluid conversion and the non-directional connected check valve achieve the effect of sealing the annulus and the inner tube of the concentric coiled tubing, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of blowout accidents.

[0091] Although the above describes the specific implementation mode of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it is not a limitation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention without creative work are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
