[0108] A method for injecting liquid CO2 downhole electrically controlled throttling injection device comprises the following steps:
[0109] The pressure sensor 34 collects the pressure data of the current injection layer and generates a predetermined liquid flow rate of liquid CO2 according to the pressure data.
[0110] The measuring instrument with magnetic awakening function awakens the liquid CO2 downhole electric control throttling injection device through the awakening switch component 26, and controls the reduction motor 6 to drive the valve push rod 15 to adjust the opening of the valve nozzle 19 according to the predetermined liquid flow value.

[0112] In one embodiment, when the liquid CO2 downhole electric-controlled throttling injection device is tested on site, a measuring instrument with a magnetic awakening function is lowered to the predetermined downhole electric-controlled throttling injection device by cable delivery, and the liquid CO2 downhole electric-controlled throttling injection device is activated. Then, the flow adjustment expected value is set according to the liquid distribution plan, and then the flow measurement and control processor and the regulating controller are connected together for downhole adjustment. The actual liquid distribution amount is tested by the measurement and control processor and compared with the desired liquid distribution amount, and the reduction motor 6 is controlled to rotate forward or reverse according to the comparison result. The rotational motion of the motor is transmitted to the spiral transmission mechanism such as the screw 13 in the adjustable device through a universal coupling or a coupling 8, so that the valve core produces axial movement, the size of the water outlet is changed, and the purpose of adjusting the flow is achieved. When the flow meets the expected value requirement, the adjustment stops automatically. As needed, the well can be lowered once and multiple layers can be distributed.
[0113] In one embodiment, the liquid CO2 downhole electric control throttling injection device is not limited by the layer segment in oil displacement stratification.

[0114] In one embodiment, a liquid CO2 downhole electric control throttling injection device first collects data information of the current injection layer through a pressure sensor 34, then undergoes A / D conversion, and stores the converted digital information. The data is transmitted to the control host through a cable, and a cable packer is used between each injection layer to remove interference. At the same time, the reduction motor 6 is driven according to the pre-set liquid flow value, thereby adjusting the opening value of the valve nozzle 19 to complete the automatic allocation of the liquid flow of the layer section. The hardware circuits of all acquisition and control components are located in the liquid CO2 downhole electric control throttling injection device. The downhole measuring device and the data transmission cable perform two functions: using the sensor installed in the measuring instrument to measure the pressure, temperature, flow rate and other data of each injection interval, and collecting the data through the cable, and finally transmitting it to the ground control system; according to the feedback signal from the ground control system, the valve nozzle 19 of the device is adjusted by the drive system motor and the measuring instrument.
