[0004] In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber-tube steam-injection pipe string, comprising: a casing; and a hydraulic-release telescopic tube assembly, a thermal-sensitive packer assembly, an anchoring packer assembly, and a ball seat assembly, which are arranged in the casing and connected in sequence through an oil pipe, wherein a ball is dropped into the oil pipe, the ball is suitable for matching with the ball seat assembly and sealing the oil pipe at the ball seat assembly, and high-pressure fluid is injected into the oil pipe, so that the anchoring packer assembly extends toward the casing and is anchored on the inner wall of the casing, and the hydraulic-release telescopic tube assembly extends axially so that the upper joint assembly and the lower joint assembly in the thermal-sensitive packer assembly can achieve relative movement; steam is injected into the oil pipe, and the thermal-sensitive packer assembly will expand toward the inner wall of the casing after being heated and seal the casing.
[0005] Wherein, the thermal-sensitive packer assembly comprises the upper joint assembly and the lower joint assembly, wherein the upper joint assembly is detachably connected to the lower joint assembly.
[0006] The upper joint assembly comprises an outer central tube and a thermosensitive adhesive tube sleeved on the outer central tube, wherein a thermosensitive cavity is constructed on the thermosensitive adhesive tube, and a thermosensitive substance is contained in the thermosensitive cavity.
[0007] Wherein, the upper joint assembly also includes an upper connector and an upper joint, wherein one end of the upper joint is connected to the oil pipe, and the other end is connected to the first end of the upper connector, and the second end of the upper connector is detachably connected to the outer center pipe.
[0008] Wherein, the lower joint assembly comprises an inner central tube, and the outer central tube is sleeved on the inner central tube and connected as a whole through pins.
[0009] An annular cavity opening toward the inner central tube is formed on the outer central tube, wherein the annular cavity and the outer wall of the inner central tube together form a buffer chamber.
[0010] Wherein, a through hole is constructed on the outer wall of the inner central tube, and the through hole is communicated with the buffer chamber.
[0011] Wherein, the lower joint assembly also includes a lower connecting head, and the lower connecting head is detachably connected to the inner center tube.
[0012] Wherein, the lower joint assembly also includes a lower joint that is partially sleeved on the lower connecting head and detachably connected to the lower connecting head.
[0013] Among them, the lower joint assembly also includes an outer ring and an unsealing needle seat mounted on the lower connector, wherein one end of the outer ring is sealingly connected to the thermal adhesive tube, and the other end of the outer ring is connected to the unsealing needle seat as a whole through an unsealing pin.
[0014] Wherein, the lower joint assembly further comprises a desealing needle which is arranged on the desealing needle seat and extends toward the side end surface of one end of the thermal glue cylinder.

[0027] In the related art, there is a technical problem that the sealing force of the packer in the existing steam injection string is uncontrollable. In order to ensure the sealing of the steam injection in the high-temperature environment underground, the sealing force is often very large. In the long-term high-temperature environment underground, the casing at the sealing position of the packer is easily deformed due to the long-term influence of the radial pressure of the packer, and the long-term force is easy to cause the casing damage and the failure of the steam injection string seal, causing irreversible damage to the casing. At the same time, it will greatly reduce the service life of the steam injection string. The embodiment of the present application provides a constant sealing force thermistor long rubber tube steam injection string, which can at least solve the technical problem that the casing at the sealing position of the packer is easily deformed due to the long-term influence of the radial pressure of the packer, and the long-term force is easy to cause the casing damage and the failure of the steam injection string seal, causing irreversible damage to the casing. At the same time, it will greatly reduce the service life of the steam injection string.
[0028] The following is combined with Figure 1 to Figure 2 The present application is shown and described with reference to specific embodiments:
[0029] An embodiment of the present application provides a constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string, which includes a casing 1, an oil pipe 2, a hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3, a thermal-sensitive packer assembly 4, an anchor packer assembly 5, a ball seat assembly 6, a ball 7, a ball basket 8 and a steam injection valve 9.
[0030] In an embodiment of the present application, the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3, the thermal seal assembly 4, the anchoring seal assembly 5 and the ball seat assembly 6 are all arranged in the casing 1 and are connected in sequence through the oil pipe 2, wherein a ball 7 is dropped into the oil pipe 2, the ball 7 is suitable for matching with the ball seat assembly 6 and sealing the oil pipe 2 at the ball seat assembly 6, and by injecting high-pressure fluid into the oil pipe 2, the anchoring seal assembly 5 is extended toward the direction of the casing 1 and anchored on the inner wall of the casing 1, and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3 is extended axially so that the upper joint assembly 41 and the lower joint assembly 42 in the thermal seal assembly 4 can achieve relative movement; steam is injected into the oil pipe 2, and the thermal seal assembly 4 will expand toward the inner wall of the casing 1 after being heated and seal the casing 1. Specifically, after the sealing is performed, the constant sealing force thermal sensitive long rubber cylinder steam injection pipe column of the present application is lowered (at this time, the ball seat assembly 6 is in an open state, and there is no ball at the ball seat assembly 6), the ball 7 is dropped into the oil pipe 2, and the ball 7 will be stuck at the opening of the ball seat assembly 6. At this time, the ball seat assembly 6 is in a sealed state. By injecting high-pressure fluid into the oil pipe 2 (for example, injecting clean water into the oil pipe 2 of the constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string), the constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string begins to be pressurized. When the pressure in the constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string reaches a certain level, the anchoring packer assembly 5 extends toward the direction of the casing 1 and anchors on the inner wall of the casing 1. The hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3 extends axially to enable the upper joint assembly 41 and the lower joint assembly 42 in the thermal-sensitive packer assembly 4 to achieve relative movement, and steam is injected into the oil pipe 2. After being heated, the thermal-sensitive packer assembly 4 will expand toward the inner wall of the casing 1 and press the casing 1. It can be seen that the present application balances the sealing force of the thermal packer assembly 4 through the deadweight of the tubing between the thermal packer assembly 4 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3, so that the thermal packer assembly 4 is not affected by the steam injection temperature and can always maintain a constant sealing force during the operation. At the same time, the thermal rubber tube 42 in the thermal packer assembly 4 of the present application adopts a long rubber tube design, thereby greatly increasing the contact area between the thermal rubber tube 412 in the thermal packer assembly 4 and the casing 1, effectively reducing the sealing pressure of the thermal packer assembly 4 on the casing 1, and further reducing the damage of the thermal packer assembly 4 to the casing 1.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the thermal packer assembly 4 includes the upper joint assembly 41 and the lower joint assembly 42, wherein the upper joint assembly 41 is detachably connected to the lower joint assembly 42. Specifically, in the working state, the thermal packer assembly 4 is located underground, the upper joint assembly 41 is arranged above the lower joint assembly 42, and the upper joint assembly 41 and the lower joint assembly 42 can be connected as a whole by means of snaps, bolts or threaded connections.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the upper joint assembly 41 includes an outer central tube 411 and a thermally sensitive rubber tube 412 sleeved on the outer central tube 411, wherein a thermally sensitive cavity 412a is constructed on the thermally sensitive rubber tube 412, and a thermally sensitive substance is contained in the thermally sensitive rubber tube 412a. Specifically, by sleeved on the outer central tube 411 with the thermally sensitive rubber tube 412, and containing a thermally sensitive substance in the thermally sensitive rubber tube 412, when steam is injected into the oil pipe 1, the thermally sensitive substance in the thermally sensitive rubber tube 412 will expand due to the heat, causing the thermally sensitive rubber tube 412 to move toward the inner wall of the casing 1, thereby sealing the upper and lower spaces in the casing 1 and achieving the setting of the casing 1. At this time, the thermal glue cylinder 412 is subjected to the pressure of the lower end pipe column of the upper joint assembly 41 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3. When the pressure of the thermal glue cylinder 412 is too large, the thermal glue cylinder 412 can push up the upper joint assembly 41 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3 to ensure that the pressure of the thermal glue cylinder 412 is balanced with the self-weight of the upper joint assembly 41 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3. At this time, the axial direction of the thermal glue cylinder 412 is extended, but the sealing force of the thermal glue cylinder 412 remains constant.
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the upper joint assembly 41 further includes an upper connector 413 and an upper joint 414, wherein one end of the upper joint 414 is connected to the oil pipe 2, the other end is connected to the first end of the upper connector 413, and the second end of the upper connector 413 is detachably connected to the outer center pipe 411. Specifically, one end of the upper joint 414 is detachably connected to the oil pipe 2 (threaded connection, bolted connection or snap connection), the other end is detachably connected to the upper connector 413 (threaded connection, bolted connection or snap connection), and the second end of the upper connector 413 is detachably connected to the outer center pipe 411, thereby facilitating the rapid installation and removal of the upper joint 414, the upper connector 413 and the outer center pipe 411.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the lower joint assembly 42 includes an inner central tube 421, and the outer central tube 411 is sleeved on the inner central tube 421 and connected as a whole through a pin 422. Specifically, the outer central tube 411 is sleeved on the inner central tube 421 and connected as a whole through the pin 422, so that a firm connection between the outer central tube 411 and the inner central tube 421 can be achieved. Specifically, the pin 422 passes through the outer wall of the outer central tube 411 and the outer wall of the inner central tube 421 in sequence, and by tightening the pin 422, a fixed connection between the outer central tube 411 and the inner central tube 421 can be achieved.
[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, an annular cavity opening toward the inner central tube 411 is configured on the outer central tube 411, wherein the annular cavity and the outer wall of the inner central tube 421 together form a buffer chamber 428. It should be noted that the buffer chamber 428 is suitable for a portion of the high-pressure fluid to flow into.
[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a through hole 421 a is constructed on the outer wall of the inner central tube 421 , and the through hole 421 a is connected to the buffer chamber 428 . Specifically, before sealing, high-pressure fluid is injected into the oil pipe 2, and the high-pressure fluid will flow through the oil pipe 2 through the inner center tube 421, and flow into the buffer chamber 428 through the through hole 421a on the inner center tube 421. As the amount of high-pressure fluid flowing into the buffer chamber 428 gradually increases, the pressure in the buffer chamber 428 will gradually increase, thereby promoting the inner center tube 421 and the outer center tube 411 to move relative to each other. That is, under normal circumstances, since the inner center tube 421 and the outer center tube 411 are fixedly connected as a whole by the pin 422, it is ensured that there is no relative movement between the inner center tube 421 and the outer center tube 411. However, when the shear force between the inner center tube 421 and the outer center tube 411 reaches a certain level, the pin 422 will be sheared off, thereby realizing the relative movement between the inner center tube 421 and the outer center tube 411.
[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the lower joint assembly 42 further includes a lower connector 423, and the lower connector 423 is detachably connected to the inner center tube 421. Specifically, the lower connector 423 and the inner center tube 421 can be connected as one by threaded connection or snap connection.
[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the lower joint assembly 42 further includes a lower joint 424 partially sleeved on the lower connecting head 423 and detachably connected to the lower connecting head 423. Specifically, the lower joint 424 can be connected to the lower connecting head 423 as a whole by a connection method such as a threaded connection, a bolt connection, or a snap connection.
[0039] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the lower joint assembly 42 further includes an outer sleeve 425 and an unsealing needle seat 426 sleeved on the lower connector 423, wherein one end of the outer sleeve 425 is sealed and connected to the thermal glue cylinder 412, and the other end of the outer sleeve 425 is connected to the unsealing needle seat 426 as a whole through an unsealing pin 427. Specifically, the unsealing needle seat 426 is sleeved on the lower connector 423, one end of the outer sleeve 425 is sealed and connected to the thermal glue cylinder 412, and the other end is connected to the unsealing needle seat 426 as a whole through an unsealing pin 427. Specifically, when unsealing, the oil pipe 2 is lowered. At this time, the lower joint assembly 42 in the thermal packer assembly 4 is fixed by the anchor packer assembly 5 at the lower end. When the steam injection string of the present application is lowered, the upper joint assembly 41 in the thermal packer assembly 4 pushes the thermal glue cylinder 412 downward. When the pressure reaches a certain level, the thermal glue cylinder 412 acts on the downward ( Figure 2 When the force (horizontally to the right in the direction shown) is greater than the shear force of the unsealing pin 427, the unsealing pin 427 is sheared off, and at the same time, the unsealing needle seat 426 is knocked off, and the unsealing needle 429 shown below contacts and punctures the thermosensitive glue tube 412, thereby achieving unsealing. After the thermosensitive packer assembly 4 is unsealed, the steam injection string of this application is lifted up. When the lifting force reaches a certain level, the unsealing pin (not shown in the figure) in the anchoring packer assembly 5 is sheared off, and the anchoring claw in the anchoring packer assembly 5 shrinks toward the center in the direction away from the inner wall of the casing 1. At this time, the steam injection string of this application is no longer anchored with the casing 1, and the steam injection string of this application can be lifted up from top to bottom to remove the tool.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the lower joint assembly 42 also includes an unsealing needle 429 disposed on the unsealing needle seat 426 and extending toward the side end surface of one end of the thermal glue cylinder 412. Specifically, the unsealing needle 429 is configured to puncture the thermal glue cylinder 412, thereby achieving unsealing.
[0041] It should be noted that the tip of the desealing needle 412 is always facing the side end surface of one end of the thermal adhesive tube 412, and the desealing needle 412 can be arranged horizontally or inclined relative to the horizontal.
[0042] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the anchor packer assembly 5 includes an anchor packer body 51 connected to the oil pipe 2 and an anchor claw 52 arranged on the anchor packer body 51 and extending toward the inner wall of the casing 1. Specifically, when high-pressure fluid is injected into the oil pipe 2, the anchor packer assembly 5, under the action of the high-pressure fluid, causes the anchor claw 52 to extend toward the inner wall of the casing 1, thereby causing the entirety of the anchor packer assembly 5 to be fixed in the casing 1, ensuring that the entirety of the steam injection string of the present application can be fixed in the casing 1 to avoid falling.
[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the constant-seating sealing force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string further includes a ball basket 8 and a steam injection valve 9, wherein the ball basket 8 is arranged below the ball seat assembly 6 and is suitable for receiving the ball 7 dropped into the oil pipe 2, and the steam injection valve 9 is arranged on the oil pipe 2 connecting the ball basket 8 and the ball seat assembly 6. Specifically, during steam injection, steam is injected into the oil pipe 2, at which time, the thermal-sensitive rubber tube 412 expands due to heat, thereby sealing the upper and lower spaces in the casing 1 where the thermal-sensitive packer assembly 4 is located. At this time, the thermal glue cylinder 412 is subjected to the pressure of the pipe column at the lower end of the upper joint assembly 41 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3. When the pressure of the thermal glue cylinder 412 is too large, the thermal glue cylinder 412 can push up the upper joint assembly 41 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3 to ensure that the pressure of the thermal glue cylinder 412 is balanced with the self-weight of the upper joint assembly 41 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3. At this time, the axial direction of the thermal glue cylinder 412 is extended, but the sealing force of the thermal glue cylinder 412 remains constant.
[0044] It should be noted that the ball seat assembly 6 is a conventional ball seat. Dropping a ball 7 into the steam injection pipe column of the present application can seal the space in the steam injection pipe column above the ball seat assembly 6. At this time, liquid is injected into the pipe column to hold the pressure and increase the liquid pressure in the steam injection pipe column. In conjunction with other hydraulic switches (such as the steam injection valve 9), when the pressure exceeds the set threshold, the shear pin (not shown in the figure) in the ball seat assembly 6 will be broken, and the ball seat assembly 6 will fall into the ball basket 8. At this time, the upper steam injection pipe column on the ball seat assembly 6 is connected to the lower steam injection pipe column.
[0045] To sum up, after the sealing is performed and the constant sealing force thermal sensitive long rubber tube steam injection pipe column of the present application is lowered (at this time, the ball seat assembly 6 is in an open state and there is no ball at the ball seat assembly 6), the ball 7 is dropped into the oil pipe 2, and the ball 7 will be stuck at the opening of the ball seat assembly 6. At this time, the ball seat assembly 6 is in a sealed state. By injecting high-pressure fluid into the oil pipe 2 (for example, injecting clean water into the oil pipe 2 of the constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string), the constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string begins to be pressurized. When the pressure in the constant-sealing-force thermal-sensitive long rubber tube steam injection string reaches a certain level, the anchoring packer assembly 5 extends toward the direction of the casing 1 and anchors on the inner wall of the casing 1. The hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3 extends axially to enable the upper joint assembly 41 and the lower joint assembly 42 in the thermal-sensitive packer assembly 4 to achieve relative movement, and steam is injected into the oil pipe 2. After being heated, the thermal-sensitive packer assembly 4 will expand toward the inner wall of the casing 1 and press the casing 1. It can be seen that the present application balances the sealing force of the thermal packer assembly 4 through the deadweight of the tubing between the thermal packer assembly 4 and the hydraulic release telescopic tube assembly 3, so that the thermal packer assembly 4 is not affected by the steam injection temperature and can always maintain a constant sealing force during the operation. At the same time, the thermal rubber tube 42 in the thermal packer assembly 4 of the present application adopts a long rubber tube design, thereby greatly increasing the contact area between the thermal rubber tube 412 in the thermal packer assembly 4 and the casing 1, effectively reducing the sealing pressure of the thermal packer assembly 4 on the casing 1, and further reducing the damage of the thermal packer assembly 4 to the casing 1.
