Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oil production equipment technology, and specifically relates to a rodless pump well with hydraulically assisted dewaxing device. Background Technology

[0002] Oil well production mainly relies on mechanical equipment to pump crude oil from the oil layer to the surface. Electric submersible screw pumps are mainly used in oil wells with low fluid volume for energy-saving considerations. Therefore, wax buildup in the tubing is common in the field, and wax removal is also quite troublesome. If wax removal is not done in time, it will seriously affect production, causing problems such as wellbore blockage and no oil production, or pump unit burnout due to overheating. Currently, there are several methods for dewaxing the tubing of electric submersible screw pumps: First, using a wax scraper. This method requires a dewaxing truck, which uses its power to lower and raise the scraper for dewaxing. However, this requires a significant amount of manpower, generally three or more people, and carries certain safety risks, plus it is costly. Second, hot washing dewaxing. This method uses a dewaxing truck to heat water or the produced fluid in the wellbore to create a high-temperature dewaxing fluid. This high-temperature dewaxing fluid is pumped into the well from the annulus to heat the tubing, melting the wax deposits on the inner wall of the tubing. The wax is then carried out by the produced fluid and the pumped dewaxing fluid. The first method involves a ground-based system to remove wax, but this method is inherently dangerous due to the use of high-temperature wax-removing fluid and potentially even high-temperature steam, and it is also costly. The second method involves a cable-operated electric wax-removal system, which adds a motor to a wax-removal device with a scraper blade. The motor drives the device to move up and down to remove wax, requiring a cable to power it. Because a cable is needed for power, cable retrieval and lowering become problematic. The main challenge is synchronizing the movement of the wax-removal device with the retrieval of the cable and wire rope, which can easily lead to tangling, wear, and electrical leakage.

[0003] Chinese Patent Application No. 201910175361.2 discloses a "variable diameter hydraulic mechanical wax removal device". However, the "hydraulic" aspect of this device is mainly used to drive the wax scraper blade to change diameter.

[0004] Chinese Patent Application No. 201910496052.5 discloses "A device and method for hot cleaning and dewaxing inside an oil pipe". The device includes a hot cleaning and dewaxing apparatus, an oil pipe sleeved outside the apparatus, and distributed temperature-sensing optical fibers disposed on the outer wall of the oil pipe. However, this invention only describes a hot cleaning and dewaxing method and does not involve a mechanical automatic dewaxing method.

[0005] Chinese Patent Application No. 201821910881.0 discloses a "dedicated wax removal device for self-flowing well tubing". This device uses an electric cable for wax removal and can automatically switch directions to remove wax buildup on the inner wall, but it suffers from problems such as high investment and complex operation.

[0006] Chinese Patent Application No. 201621180653.3 discloses a "mechanical wax removal device for rodless oil wells". This device is lowered into a rodless oil well (mainly referring to an electric submersible pump). Through the combined action of a sealing plug, a lower baffle, and a wax scraper, the wax scraper scrapes the wax upwards to the reversing pipe and then begins to reverse downwards. However, this device only uses mechanical wax removal and still requires manual operation, resulting in a long operation cycle and high labor costs. Summary of the Invention

The upper end of the central shaft of the climbing roller 4-1 is connected to the output shaft of the climbing motor, and the lower end is fixed to the top surface of the outer cover 3-6. Multiple guide grooves 4-4 are spirally formed on the outer circumference surface. The climbing wheel 4-3 is installed between two adjacent guide grooves 4-4, and the climbing wheel 4-3 is in close contact with the inner circumference surface of the oil pipe 7.

[0031] The control system 6 is installed on the upper part of the housing 4-2, including the controller 6-1 and the power supply battery 6-2, and the controller 6-1 is electrically connected to the wax sweeping motor 3-8 and the climbing motor respectively;

[0032] The straightening device 5 includes an arc-shaped bracket 5-1 and a roller 5-2; the arc-shaped bracket 5-1 is elastic and vertically arranged, and multiple arc-shaped brackets 5-1 are spaced apart on the outer circumferential surface of the controller 6. At least one roller 5-2 is installed in the middle of each arc-shaped bracket 5-1, and the roller 5-2 abuts against the inner circumferential surface of the oil pipe 7.

[0033] The sealing outer tube 1-1 has a vertical trapezoidal cross-section. The function of the sealing outer tube 1-1 with this structure is to cooperate with the limiting ring 1-4 to limit the length of the wax removal section; the limiting ring 1-4 also has the function of helping to seal.

[0034] A sealing ring 2-6 is provided between the contact surfaces of the protruding edge 2-8 and the hydraulic slider 2-3, and between the hydraulic slider 2-3 and the outer tube 2-4 of the umbrella.

[0035] The overall diameter of the straightening device 5 is larger than the inner diameter of the oil pipe 7, so it is tightly fitted with the oil pipe 7.

[0036] The method of using the rodless pump well with hydraulically assisted dewaxing device provided by the present invention is described below:

[0037] When it is necessary to remove the wax buildup on the inner wall of tubing 7, the operator first retracts the hydraulic umbrella 2-2 in the umbrella-shaped opening system 2 into the interior of the hydraulic umbrella inlet and outlet; then the lower part of this device is inserted into tubing 7 from the wellhead. When the straightening device 5 reaches the upper end of tubing 7, since the overall diameter of the straightening device 5 is larger than the inner diameter of tubing 7, a certain external force needs to be applied to press the straightening device 5 into tubing 7. At this time, the middle part of the elastic bow-shaped support 5-1 will be in close contact with the inner wall of tubing 7, but due to the presence of the rolling wheel 5-2, it will not affect the up and down sliding of this device. Moreover, when using the wax removal system 3 for wax removal, it can be ensured that the control system 6 and the straightening device 5 will not rotate in the horizontal plane with the climbing system 4 when the climbing system 4 rotates. Then, under the control of controller 6-1, the climbing motor is started, which drives the climbing roller 4-1 and its lower components to rotate together, and with the help of the climbing wheel 4-3, the device moves downward; at the same time, the wax sweeping motor 3-8 is started, which drives the wax sweeping brush retractor push cylinder 3-5 and the wax sweeping brush retractor 3-2 to move down together and press down on the inner part of the wax sweeping brush 3-3, so that the upper part of the wax sweeping brush 3-3 opens up and contacts the inner wall of the oil pipe 7, and the continuously rotating wax sweeping brush 3-3 removes the oil. Wax forms on the inner wall of pipe 7; when the sealing inner cylinder 1-2 in the hydraulic forming system 1 descends to the position of the sealing outer pipe 1-1, the outer circumferential surface of the annular sealing platform 1-6 will be tightly attached to the inner circumferential surface of the sealing outer pipe 1-1 to form a seal, blocking the channel for the oil well produced fluid to flow upward from the sealing inner cylinder 1-2 and the sealing outer pipe 1-1. The limiting ring 1-4 will be stuck at the upper end of the sealing outer pipe 1-1 to limit the further descent of the device, while also helping to seal. At this point, the descent process ends.

[0038] At this time, since the oil pump on the lower side of the device is still in normal production, the produced liquid it lifts will flow into the space enclosed by the sealing inner cylinder 1-2 and the lower part of the hydraulic slider 2-3 through the screen hole 1-3, hydraulic channel 1-5 and liquid flow hole 1-7 on the sealing inner cylinder 1-2 in sequence. This will apply a downward force to the lower end of the hydraulic slider 2-3, causing the hydraulic slider 2-3 to move downward. At the same time, it will compress the return spring 2-5, thereby pushing the hydraulic umbrella 2-2 to extend outward from the hydraulic umbrella inlet and outlet and abut against the inner wall of the oil pipe 7, forming a certain degree of seal. The controller 6-1 reverses the wax removal motor 3-8, which in turn drives the wax removal brush retractor pusher 3-5 and the wax removal brush retractor 3-2 upwards until the wax removal brush retractor 3-2 leaves the wax removal brush 3-3, and the upper part of the wax removal brush 3-3 retracts away from the inner wall of the tubing 7. The climbing motor then reverses, causing the climbing roller 4-1 and its lower components to rotate. With the assistance of the climbing motor and the fluid produced in the hydraulic forming system 1, the device ascends to the wellhead, thus ending the upward movement. This saves power consumption of the climbing motor and extends the device's well dwell time.

[0039] In addition, if the climbing battery in this device is low on power and the device has difficulty moving upwards, hydraulic pressure can be used to assist the climbing motor in driving upwards. This can effectively reduce the consumption of the device's own power, extend the device's operating time, and save energy. Moreover, when the device's own power is insufficient, the hydraulic pressure alone can lift the entire device to the wellhead for charging. This can prevent the entire device from getting stuck at a certain position when lifted to the wellhead due to insufficient power, which would require a workover operation to retrieve the device.
