Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of oil production, and in particular to an oil production downhole reversing system based on electric drive hydraulic technology. Background Art

[0002] In the process of oil extraction, as the development of oil fields deepens, the number of rock fractures continues to increase. When it is necessary to separately extract oil from different rock fractures, it is necessary to control the corresponding openings of the downhole lines, which increases the complexity and management difficulty of the downhole oil lines. Traditional downhole oil line switching operations often rely on manual intervention, which is not only inefficient, but also poses safety hazards. Especially in deep wells and complex geological conditions, manual operation is extremely difficult. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop an efficient, safe and automated downhole reversing system. The existing downhole reversing system generally transmits pressure to the downhole through the hydraulic oil circuit through the ground hydraulic system, and then controls the corresponding opening in the downhole to open or close, thereby realizing the line switching operation. When the control command reaches the corresponding opening, it is often difficult to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of the opening. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an oil well drilling reversing system based on electric drive hydraulic technology, which solves the problems of difficulty in manual underground line changing, great safety hazards, and difficulty in ensuring the accuracy and timeliness of underground line changing by ground hydraulic system.

[0012] Both the pipe a and the pipe b are provided with a one-way valve; the one-way valve on the pipe a points to the oil pump; the one-way valve on the pipe b points to the oil circuit reversing valve.

[0013] A control method for a downhole reversing system for oil production based on electric drive hydraulic technology comprises the following steps:

[0014] Step 1: The ground control center sends a line change command to the underground according to the demand;

[0015] Step 2, the command is transmitted to multiple downhole control terminals through the control line;

[0016] Step 3, in the downhole control terminal where the gate needs to be closed, the motor drives the oil pump to pump the hydraulic oil from the oil storage tank to the input end of the hydraulic cylinder, and the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic cylinder is discharged from the output end to the oil storage tank, so that the flow channel on one side is closed;

[0017] Step 4, in the downhole control terminal where the gate needs to be opened, the motor drives the oil pump to pump the hydraulic oil from the oil storage tank to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder, and the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic cylinder is discharged from the input end to the oil storage tank, thereby opening the flow channel on one side.

[0018] The step 3 comprises:

[0028] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention has at least the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0029] 1. The present invention is a downhole reversing system for oil production based on electric drive hydraulic technology. Since the existing hydraulic system generally adopts a hydraulic system set on the ground, when transmitting to the downhole through the hydraulic oil circuit, its hydraulic pipeline is too long, which limits the response speed and affects timeliness, and the hydraulic pipeline is easily squeezed, affecting normal operation. Therefore, the present invention sends instructions remotely through the ground control center, and then only controls the downhole control terminal to open or close it through the control pipeline, so that its response speed is accelerated and the line change operation can be realized in time;

[0030] 2. The present invention is a downhole reversing system for oil production based on electric drive hydraulic technology. When the hydraulic system arranged on the ground transmits to the downhole through the hydraulic oil circuit, its pipeline goes deep into the downhole, which makes the liquid pressure too high and there is a safety hazard. In addition, the depth of the hydraulic pipeline is limited when entering the well. Therefore, the present invention arranges a number of separate downhole control terminals on the mechanical sleeve downhole, which integrate the electric drive hydraulic system, and can control the opening or closing of the corresponding gate through a separate hydraulic cycle, so as to realize remote downhole line change, avoid the hydraulic pipeline being too long, and further improve its response speed;

[0031] 3. The present invention is an underground oil production reversing system based on electric drive hydraulic technology. The control pipeline and underground control terminal used are both arranged in the interlayer of the mechanical sleeve. A gate that can be opened and closed is arranged in the interlayer. It is opened and closed in accordance with the reversing instruction and is placed underground together with the mechanical sleeve to control the import and export of oil production in different sections, which effectively utilizes space resources and reduces the floor space.
