Description

Technical Field

[0002] A foam generator is a device used to generate foam and is widely used in oilfield well washing construction. Oilfield foam generators usually generate foam by mixing gas and liquid. These foams can be used to improve oil and gas recovery rates, clean wellbores, and other purposes.

[0003] Chinese patent application number CN201710840393.0 provides a foam generator, comprising: a hollow tubular main body portion, a cement slurry inlet portion and a gas inlet portion spaced apart in the axial direction are arranged at one end of the main body portion, a mixing foaming chamber arranged in the main body portion, used to mix and foam the cement slurry and gas from the cement slurry inlet portion and the gas inlet portion, a foam homogenizer arranged in the main body portion, used to homogenize the foam fluid from the mixing foaming chamber, and a foam cement slurry outlet portion for connecting a cementing pipeline arranged at the other end of the main body portion.

The air baffle 7 is made of plastic to reduce its own gravity and is easier to The air baffle plate 7 is easy to rotate, and the air baffle plate 7 rotates with the hollow tube 5. At this time, the stirring device 6 follows the rotation of the hollow tube 5 to stir the foaming liquid and the nitrogen mixture. Compared with the traditional motor-driven stirring blade, it is more environmentally friendly and energy-saving. Two groups of retractable injection devices 8 are arranged between the stirring device 6 and the air baffle plate 7. When the ball head 805 moves and is squeezed by the arc block 9, the fixed rod 804 moves with the injection head 803 and the telescopic tube 802 toward the inside of the fixed tube 801, so that the injection head 803 rotates and retracts at the same time, so that the injection head 803 discharges nitrogen at different positions in the mixed liquid. The two groups of injection devices 8 are arranged in a circular array on the surface of the hollow tube 5. Any one of the injection devices 8 can discharge nitrogen at different positions in the mixed liquid. The injection device 8 is connected to the hollow tube 5.

The rotation of the hollow tube 5 also moves the fixed tube 801, the telescopic tube 802, the injection head 803, the fixed rod 804 and the ball head 805. When the ball head 805 is squeezed by the arc block 9, the fixed rod 804 moves with the injection head 803 and the telescopic tube 802 toward the inside of the fixed tube 801, so that the injection head 803 rotates and expands at the same time, so that the injection head 803 discharges nitrogen at different positions in the mixed liquid, further improving the efficiency of the generator body 1 in generating foam.

The injection head 803, the nitrogen inlet pipe 10 and the second air distribution pipe 13 enter the mixing box 3. According to the foaming liquid inlet pipe 11 entering the foaming agent in the mixing box 3, the nitrogen amount can be adjusted within a certain range.

[0037] The use steps of the present invention are as follows: when the ultra-high pressure and large displacement nitrogen foam generator is used, the generator body 1 is first placed on the ground beside the wellhead, and then the pump truck connecting pipe 27 is connected to the pump truck through a high-pressure pipe, the bottom surface of the pipe sleeve connecting pipe 28 is connected to the pipe sleeve in the wellhead, the nitrogen inlet pipe 10 is connected to the nitrogen generating device through a high-pressure pipe, and the foaming liquid inlet pipe 11 is connected to the foaming liquid storage box through a high-pressure pipe (the connection between the nitrogen inlet pipe 10 and the mixing box 3 and the connection between the foaming liquid inlet pipe 11 and the mixing box 3 are both equipped with existing flow control valves to control the nitrogen intake and the amount of foaming agent added, so that the foaming agent is foamed in the mixing box 3. In the nitrogen foam generator, the nitrogen intake increases within a certain range and does not exceed the limit range value, ensuring that the nitrogen second gas distribution pipe 13 is discharged through the inclined tube 15 with the air baffle 7 rotating, and the nitrogen intake amount is controlled to be increased within the required nitrogen amount range). When the generator body 1 is working to generate bubbles, the foaming liquid enters the mixing box 3 through the foaming liquid inlet pipe 11, and the nitrogen enters the bottom of the mixing box 3 through the nitrogen inlet pipe 10 (the foaming liquid is injected from top to bottom, and the nitrogen is injected from bottom to top). During the process of nitrogen passing through the nitrogen inlet pipe 10, the nitrogen is divided into two paths. The first path is that the nitrogen enters the air collecting plate 14 through the second air distribution pipe 13, and then blows through the three inclined tubes 15 through the air collecting plate 14, and then acts on the surface of the air baffle 7. At this time, the air baffle 7 rotates and rotates with the hollow tube 5. At this time, the stirring device 6 follows the rotation of the hollow tube 5 to mix and stir the foaming liquid and nitrogen (injection The second way is that the nitrogen enters the hollow tube 5 through the first gas distribution pipe 12. At this time, the nitrogen in the hollow tube 5 is blown to the mixed liquid in the mixing box 3 through the fixed tube 801, the telescopic tube 802 and the injection head 803, so that the nitrogen is blown inside the mixed liquid to increase the amount of foam produced by the generator body 1 and quickly generate foam. The rotation of the hollow tube 5 also moves with the fixed tube 801, the telescopic tube 802, the injection head 803, the fixed rod 804 and the ball head 805. When the ball head 805 is squeezed by the arc block 9, the fixed rod 804 moves with the injection head 803 and the telescopic tube 802 toward the inside of the fixed tube 801. Movement makes the injection head 803 rotate and extend at the same time, so that the injection head 803 discharges nitrogen at different positions in the mixed liquid. After the foam is generated, the switch valve between the mixed foam outlet pipe 17 and the mixing box 3 is turned on and off. At this time, the pump truck works to make the high-speed airflow enter the pipe sleeve through the three-way pipe 26 and the pipe sleeve connecting pipe 28. At this time, the foam mixed liquid inside the mixing box 3 passes through the mixed foam outlet pipe 17, the foam homogenizer 18 and the connecting pipe 19, and the foam mixed liquid is sprayed from the injection head 25 into the three-way pipe 26. The foam mixed liquid enters the deep well under the action of the pump truck. In this scheme, the foaming liquid enters the mixing box 3 through the foaming liquid inlet pipe 11, and the nitrogen enters the bottom of the mixing box 3 through the nitrogen inlet pipe 10. During the process of nitrogen passing through the nitrogen inlet pipe 10, the nitrogen is divided into two paths.The first route is that nitrogen enters the gas collecting plate 14 through the second gas distribution pipe 13, and then is blown through the three inclined tubes 15 through the gas collecting plate 14, and then acts on the surface of the gas baffle 7. At this time, the rotation of the gas baffle 7 brings the hollow tube 5 to rotate. At this time, the stirring device 6 follows the rotation of the hollow tube 5 to stir the foaming liquid and the nitrogen mixture. The second route is that nitrogen enters the hollow tube 5 through the first gas distribution pipe 12. At this time, the nitrogen inside the hollow tube 5 is blown to the mixed liquid inside the mixing box 3 through the fixed tube 801, the telescopic tube 802 and the injection head 803, so that the nitrogen is blown inside the mixed liquid. Compared with the traditional mixing device, the mixing device not only enables the mixed liquid to generate foam quickly, but also increases the amount of foam generated by the generator body 1. The upper injection head 803 blows air into the mixed liquid inside the mixing box 3, forming nitrogen foam bubbles that are small and not easy to break, thereby improving the foaming efficiency of the generator body 1, accelerating the processing speed of the oil well, and thus improving the efficiency of oil extraction; the rotation of the hollow tube 5 also moves the fixed tube 801, the telescopic tube 802, the injection head 803, the fixed rod 804 and the ball head 805. When the ball head 805 is squeezed by the arc block 9, the fixed rod 804 moves with the injection head 803 and the telescopic tube 802 toward the inside of the fixed tube 801, so that the injection head 803 rotates and telescopes at the same time, and then the injection head 803 discharges nitrogen at different positions in the mixed liquid, further improving the efficiency of the generator body 1 in generating foam.

[0038] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1 - Fig.10 , combined with the basis of Example 1, the difference is that a plurality of arc-spinning plates 32 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the ejection head 25, and the plurality of arc-spinning plates 32 are staggered in height. The arc-spinning plates 32 are spiral arc-shaped plates, and a plurality of collision blocks 33 are fixedly installed on the surface of any arc-spinning plate 32. By fixing a plurality of arc-spinning plates 32 on the inner wall of the ejection head 25, when the foam mixture enters the ejection head 25, the plurality of arc-spinning plates 32 swirl the foam mixture, and collide the foam mixture again, and a plurality of collision blocks 33 are fixedly installed on the surface of the arc-spinning plates 32, so that the foam mixture frequently collides, thereby realizing compensation for the foam lost during the transportation process, and ensuring that the stock of bubbles meets the requirements of deep well operations.

[0039] The use steps of the present invention are as follows: when the ultra-high pressure and large displacement nitrogen foam generator is in use, in order to reduce the loss of nitrogen foam during transportation, a plurality of arc rotating plates 32 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the ejection head 25. When the foam mixture enters the ejection head 25, the plurality of arc rotating plates 32 swirl the foam mixture and collide the foam mixture again. In addition, a plurality of collision blocks 33 are fixedly installed on the surface of the arc rotating plates 32, so that the foam mixture collides frequently, thereby compensating for the foam lost during transportation and ensuring that the stock of bubbles meets the requirements of deep well operations.
