Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of petroleum and natural gas fracturing equipment, in particular to a pressure-driven injection agent mixing system and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Pressure-driven injection is to inject water into wells at a large displacement and high pressure to form micro-cracks, quickly replenish formation energy, and inject chemicals at the same time, and quickly deliver the chemicals to the remaining oil-rich areas through micro-cracks to improve oil recovery efficiency. During pressure-driven injection, it is necessary to mix and transport a variety of injection chemicals. The mixing effect of the mixing device directly affects the quality of the mixed chemicals and the injection effect. With the development of pressure-driven technology, the mixing device is required to be more efficient, fast, simple and convenient to operate, and good in mobility. It is necessary to form a device with a reasonable structure and good economic benefits under the premise of ensuring safety.
[0003] Due to the local differences and discontinuous characteristics of the density and viscosity of the additives during the pressure-driven injection process, the mixing effect of the mixing device will be poor. At the same time, due to the drastic changes in the plunger force during the pressure-driven injection process, the jet speed will be slow and the micro-crack formation effect will be poor. In addition, the additive preparation point used in the pressure-driven injection is far away from the construction site, which will lead to a decrease in the viscosity of the additives during the long-term and long-distance transportation process, resulting in a poor use effect, and even causing the degradation of the additives, resulting in unnecessary waste.
[0004] Publication (announcement) number: CN218047641U, discloses a mixing device for oil-based mud, including a mixing pipe, a curved pipe fixedly connected to the left side of the mixing pipe, a mixing barrel fixedly connected to the bottom end of the curved pipe, a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the top of the curved pipe, a first motor fixedly connected to the top end of the first support plate, a bottom end of the transmission shaft of the first motor sequentially passes through the first support plate and the curved pipe and is fixedly connected to the top end of the central axis of the first spiral stirring paddle, and a blade is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the central axis of the first spiral stirring paddle. In this invention, a plurality of raw materials are firstly injected from the injection hopper at the same time, after being conveyed and stirred by the first spiral stirring paddle and the second spiral stirring paddle, the various costs are fully mixed by the rotation of the blades, which can speed up the mixing speed, and a cleaning agent is injected into the mixing pipe by a submersible pump, which can reduce the labor intensity of the workers.
[0005] The prior art can achieve full mixing after injecting multiple raw materials simultaneously and stirring them with the first and second stage propellers, but does not solve the problem of regulating the flow rate of the mixed liquid.
[0006] Publication (Announcement) No.: CN204252991U discloses a composite fracturing nozzle, which has the characteristics of simple structure, long service life, and convenient disassembly and replacement. It includes a threaded sleeve and a nozzle, one end of the threaded sleeve is provided with an external thread, and the other end is provided with an internal hexagon or an external hexagon. A cavity is provided inside the threaded sleeve, and the nozzle and the internal cavity of the threaded sleeve are tightly matched at a taper of 1:20. The central opening of the internal hexagon or the external hexagon corresponds to the water outlet end of the nozzle, and the interior of the nozzle is designed with a taper of 10° to 11° from the water inlet end to the water outlet end. The composite fracturing nozzle of this patent has the characteristics of simple structure, long service life, and convenient disassembly and replacement through the cooperation of the threaded sleeve and the nozzle.
[0007] This prior art solves the problem of complicated installation and disassembly of the nozzle by matching the threaded sleeve with the nozzle, but has disadvantages such as uneven mixing and inaccurate flow control.
[0008] Publication (announcement) number: CN211562540U, discloses a jet mixer for mixing fracturing fluid; including an intake duct, a swirl nozzle, a mixing tube body, a diffusion cone, a diffusion duct, a cleaning pipeline, a feed joint and a mixing aid cavity, etc.; the intake duct provides clean water to the jet nozzle to form a high-energy rotating water flow and negative pressure, and the flushing pipeline performs secondary mixing of part of the mixed liquid with the powder added at the feed joint. Compared with traditional mixers, the special jet nozzle can form a more efficient rotating jet, and the secondary mixed fracturing fluid has more uniform characteristics, and the water-powder agglomeration phenomenon is completely eliminated; the invention can meet the needs of large-scale fracturing construction, high viscosity ratio and can greatly improve equipment efficiency, reduce the risk of using the mixer, and reduce the cost of oilfield fracturing operations.
[0009] This prior art meets the high viscosity ratio of large-scale fracturing construction and improves the uniformity of the adjuvant mixed reagent, but does not solve the problem of real-time precise control of the variable flow rate of the reagent.
