[0002] Water injection through water injection wells is an important means for oil fields to reasonably maintain formation pressure and improve oil reservoir recovery. At present, most of my country's oil fields have shifted from the initial natural energy development stage to the water injection development stage. In the early stage of water injection development, water injection was carried out in general according to the natural water absorption capacity of oil layers of different properties (i.e., multiple oil layers were injected with water at the same time). However, since there are multiple oil layers underground, the water absorption of oil layers with different permeabilities varies greatly, resulting in a sudden water injection, which affects the development effect. In order to solve this contradiction, it is necessary to put layered water injection strings into the water injection wells to increase the utilization of various oil layers.
[0003] For low permeability reservoirs, due to the low permeability of the oil layer and the high water injection pressure, in order to prevent tubing creep, anchoring tools such as hydraulic anchors, hydraulic slips or anchored packers are generally used.

The invention can not only realize the one-time lowering of the sand control string and the water injection string, saving the construction time of a single well, but also realize the reliable independent maintenance of the offshore oil field and extend the service life of the sand control string.
[0005] The prior art uses a pull sleeve switch for forced release, and if one packer fails and gets stuck, all packers need to be abandoned.
[0006] Publication (Announcement) No.: CN108999576B, discloses an integrated pipe column and process for sand control by water injection.

The use of the pipe string can effectively prevent the water injection pipe string from being buried by sand, thereby increasing the working life of the water injection pipe string.
[0007] The prior art uses a reverse buckle safety joint for forced release, and if one packer fails and gets stuck, all packers need to be abandoned.

The time-sharing water injection string and the time-sharing water injection method open the corresponding water distribution device according to the ground pressure situation, and the ground flow device measures the flow of the injection layer to realize the stratified intermittent injection of the water injection well.

[0063] A method for safely inspecting and replacing a pipe string comprises the following steps:
[0064] S1. Assemble the pipe string and lower it into the well. According to the designed construction depth, use different lengths of tubing to assemble the compensator, water distributor, type I packer, type II packer, and well flushing valve and lower them into the well to the designed depth, so that one water distributor corresponds to one water injection layer.
[0065] S2, Sealing: After reaching the designed depth, first complete the sealing of the lower type II packer, "lift up" - "right-hand" the pipe string, the second lower joint reversing block is in the long groove of the "7"-shaped groove on the inner wall of the reversing sleeve, lower the pipe string, at this time, the slips are pushed out and stuck on the inner wall of the casing, continue to lower the pipe string, the slips are tightened, and the cone compresses the second rubber cylinder to achieve sealing;
[0066] After the bottom type-2 packer is sealed, continue to lower the tubing string to seal the upper type-1 packer. The type-1 packer will use the lower type-2 packer as a support point. At this time, continue to lower the tubing string, the first lower joint is fixed, the first inverted safety part, the first anchor release part, the third center pipe, the upper outer sleeve, and the upper support body move downward, and the upper support body compresses the first rubber cylinder to achieve sealing; at this time, the first water outlet hole coincides with the first drainage hole.
[0067] S3, water injection: open the water distributors at all levels, adjust the water distributors to the appropriate opening according to the injection volume requirements, and inject water into the oil pipes;
[0068] After the oil pipe is pressurized, the oil pipe pressure passes through the gap between the second center pipe and the first anchor body to push the first piston to extend the anchor teeth, and the oil pipe pressure enters the pressure groove through the fourth pressure transmission hole to push the third piston to extend the anchor claws;
[0069] The oil pipe pressure passes through the second pressure transmission hole to make the second piston sit on the upper support body, and the oil pipe pressure passes through the fifth pressure transmission hole to make the fourth piston sit on the upper retaining ring, and the backwash channel is closed;
[0070] S4, backwash well: stop water injection, after the oil pipe is depressurized, backwash well fluid is injected from the casing annulus, and the backwash well fluid enters from the first water inlet, so that the second piston pushes the second spring to move under the backwash pressure, the first backwash channel is opened, and the backwash well fluid is discharged from the first water outlet and passes through a type I packer;
[0071] The backwash fluid enters from the second water inlet, so that the fourth piston pushes the fourth spring under the backwash pressure, the second backwash channel is opened, and the backwash fluid is discharged from the second water outlet and passes through the second type packer;
[0072] The backwash fluid enters the oil pipe through the well flushing valve and returns to the ground.
[0073] S5, unsealing: After the tubing is depressurized, the anchor teeth and claws of the type 1 and type 2 packers are recovered, and the pipe string is "lifted up" to drive the upper support body of the type 1 packer to move upward, and the first rubber cylinder is recovered to realize the unsealing of the type 1 packer;
[0074] Continue to "lift" the tubing string, the reversing block of the second lower joint of the type II packer moves from the lower end of the long groove of the reversing sleeve to the upper end, the slips are recovered, the cone is recovered, the second rubber cylinder loses compression, the second rubber cylinder is recovered, and the second packer is unsealed.
[0075] S6. Dropping, drilling and milling: If the pipe string is stuck, use the tubing "boosting pressure" - "forward rotation" to drop the pipe string from the safe part of the packer, and use grinding or drilling and milling to process the remaining part of the well.
[0076] When the type-1 packer is stuck: the tubing rises to the shearing pressure of the first shearing nail, the first shearing nail sleeve of the type-1 packer cuts off the first shearing nail, drives the locking block sleeve to move downward, the first locking block pops out to the first receiving groove, the first upper joint is disengaged from the first central pipe by right-hand rotation and is taken out, and the wellbore processing tool is used to grind or drill the remaining well part;
[0077] When the second type packer is stuck: the tubing rises to the shearing pressure of the second shear nail, the second shear nail sleeve of the second type packer cuts the second shear nail, drives the outer sleeve to move downward, the second locking block pops out to the second receiving groove, the second upper joint is disengaged from the fourth center pipe by right rotation and taken out, and the wellbore processing tool is used to mill or drill the remaining well part;
[0078] The second shear nail shearing pressure is less than the first shear nail shearing pressure.
[0079] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0080] 1. The two-stage packer in the string is set by the weight of the tubing itself. It is mechanically set, simple to operate and reliable. The sealing track of the type-1 packer support sealing mechanism is set on the inner wall of the reversing jacket to avoid direct contact with the wellbore fluid, eliminate the risk of affecting the track reversal, and improve the reliability of the tool sealing. The type-1 packer uses the type-2 packer after setting as the support point, and relies on the weight of the upper string to compress the rubber cylinder to achieve setting. The setting is simple and reliable.
[0081] 2. Lift the pipe string to unseal the two-stage packer. There is no additional load for unsealing. The operation is simple, safe and reliable. Both the two-stage packers are designed with an inverted safety mechanism. When the pipe string is stuck later, it can be unscrewed by inverting. The anchoring parts are made of cast iron materials, which is convenient for later milling and drilling, reducing the safety accidents of the downhole pipe string and realizing the safe inspection and replacement of the pipe string.
[0082] 3. Both the two-stage packers are designed with backwash well channels, and the pipe string can meet the needs of backwash wells in the later stage. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The backwash fluid enters from the first water inlet, so that the second piston pushes the second spring to move under the backwash pressure, the first backwash channel is opened, and the backwash fluid is discharged from the first water outlet and passes through a type I packer; The backwash fluid enters from the second water inlet, so that the fourth piston pushes the fourth spring under the backwash pressure, the second backwash channel is opened, and the backwash fluid is discharged from the second water outlet and passes through the second type packer; The backwash fluid enters the oil pipe through the well flushing valve and returns to the ground.
22. A method for safely replacing a pipe string according to claim 18, characterized in that: During unsealing, after the tubing is depressurized, the anchor teeth and claws of the type 1 and type 2 packers are recovered, and the tubing string is "lifted up", driving the upper support body of the type 1 packer to move upward, and the first rubber cylinder is recovered, realizing the unsealing of the type 1 packer; Continue to "lift" the tubing string, the reversing block of the second lower joint of the second type packer moves from the lower end of the long groove of the reversing sleeve to the upper end, the slips are recovered, the cone is recovered, the second rubber cylinder loses compression, the second rubber cylinder is recovered, and the second packer is unsealed.
23. A method for safely replacing a pipe string according to claim 18, characterized in that: The S6, hand-off, drilling and milling, is divided into two situations; Type I packer is stuck: the tubing rises to the shearing pressure of the first shearing nail, the first shearing nail sleeve of the Type I packer cuts the first shearing nail, drives the locking block sleeve to move downward, the first locking block pops out to the first receiving groove, the first upper joint is disengaged from the first central pipe by right-hand rotation and is taken out, and the wellbore processing tool is used to mill or drill the remaining well part; The second type packer is stuck: the tubing rises to the shearing pressure of the second shear nail, the second shear nail sleeve of the second type packer cuts the second shear nail, drives the outer sleeve to move downward, the second locking block pops out to the second receiving groove, the second upper joint is disengaged from the fourth center pipe by right rotation and taken out, and the wellbore processing tool is used to mill or drill the remaining well part; The shearing pressure of the second shearing nail is smaller than the shearing pressure of the first shearing nail. When there are at least two first shearing nails, the deeper the position, the smaller the shearing pressure.
