Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a system and process for producing gas by water injection in a same well, belonging to the technical field of oil and gas production. Background Art

[0002] In natural gas extraction, as the formation pressure decreases, the produced water in the formation cannot be carried out, causing accumulation and crushing the formation. Drainage gas extraction is currently an effective method, but the produced water is injected into the formation, which has problems such as many ground equipment, large investment, high energy consumption, and environmental pollution. Generally, the same well reinjection method is adopted, mainly including electric submersible pumps, jet pumps, rod pumps, etc. These methods alleviate the major problem of surface water treatment, but there are problems in the following aspects: 1. For wells with high mineralization and easy scaling, submersible pumps, jet pumps, and rod pumps all have scaling problems, and the pump inspection cycle is short; 2. The pumping depth of electric submersible pumps, jet pumps and rod pumps is small, and they cannot be lifted in deep wells (depth greater than 3000m) due to structural factors; 3. When using ESP in directional wells and wells with large “doglegs”, there are problems with cable extrusion and pump shaft distortion. In addition, in low-displacement wells, the heat from the ESP motor cannot be removed. 4. The jet pump has low pump efficiency and large energy waste.

[0003] In the prior art, for example, the Chinese invention patent application with application number 202010272834.3 discloses a method and string for gas production by reinjection and drainage in the same well. The invention directly injects the water produced by the gas layer into the low-pressure layer, does not require surface treatment, does not consume water production energy, and has no additional operating costs; the liquid level in the well can always be maintained at the lowest state, so that the gas layer production capacity can be maximized. Another example is the Chinese invention patent application with application number 202411430484.3, which discloses a hydraulic lift oil production system. This invention solves the technical problems in the prior art that eccentric wear or high investment, high maintenance costs, and short life are easily caused during the oil pumping process of high-angle well development. However, the above technologies are still limited in their use scenarios, and the pump efficiency needs to be improved. Summary of the invention

[0016] (III) Beneficial effects The above technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages: 1.

[0017] 2. The use of a surface pump and a frequently started and stopped motor with adjustable speed enables the up and down movement of the downhole oil pump, thereby achieving normal drainage and gas production; the power provided by the power fluid is relatively large, which can meet the injection needs of wells above 50MPa (wellhead pressure), thereby meeting the water injection needs of difficult-to-inject wells; 3. The power fluid enters the large and small pump barrels from the oil pipe, realizing the upward movement of the large and small pistons. Under the action of the hydraulic pressure of the lower feedback pump, the large and small pistons move downward, thereby resetting. The large and small pump barrels and large and small pistons adopt rigid seals, which have the advantages of high sealing reliability and long service life. 4. The use of large flow channel floating valve and fixed valve structure not only reduces the resistance of crude oil pumping, but also can be used in high-angle wells and horizontal wells; sealed plugs are used between the exhaust pipe and the oil pipe, and between the packer and the oil pipe. The sealed plugs are rigidly sealed and have a long service life; 5. The fluid is separated into gas and water before entering the downhole pump. The separated gas moves upward along the outer pipe and enters the exhaust pipe, which reduces the impact of the gas on the pump and has a higher pump efficiency.

The control part is conventional existing technology and will not be expanded here), the same well water injection and gas production system includes: Injection and production string system: It is set in the underground well to provide a circulation channel for water injection and gas production, and the injection and production string system is connected to the injection layer 1 and the production layer 2 respectively to realize the fluid circulation during the water injection and gas production process.

[0028] Downhole pump: It is installed in the injection and production tubing system to provide power for water injection and gas production in the underground well, especially for reinjecting the liquid from the production layer 2 into the injection layer 1. It can be understood that it also provides a circulation channel for the liquid in the production layer 2.

[0029] Power fluid circulation system: It is installed on the ground, with power fluid flowing through it, and is connected to the injection and production tubing system. It provides lifting power for the operation of the downhole pump through the circulating power fluid, especially provides lifting driving force for the plunger of the downhole pump.

[0030] The gas production system provided in this embodiment also includes a gas-liquid separator 3, a packer 4, a one-way valve 5 and an exhaust pipe 6. The packer 4 separates the injection layer 1 and the production layer 2 of the underground well to prevent mutual interference and intrusion. The gas-liquid separator 3 separates the fluid of the production layer 2 into gas and liquid. The one-way valve 5 is used to prevent the liquid of the injection layer 1 from entering the production layer 2, in order to prevent the ineffective circulation of water. The exhaust pipe 6 is connected to the injection and production string system and is used to discharge the gas from the production layer 2 that needs to be collected.

[0031] The downhole pump is a two-stage plunger pump. The upper plunger pump is used to rise and fall under the drive of power fluid and to inject liquid back into the injection layer 1. The lower plunger pump is driven by the upper plunger pump to rise and fall while absorbing liquid from the production layer 2. A flow channel running through the entire downhole pump is provided in the middle of the downhole pump for reinjection, and a fixed valve 7 and a floating valve 8 are provided on the flow channel. Under the action of the downhole pump, the fluid in the production layer 2 first passes through the gas-liquid separator 3 for gas-liquid separation, and then the gas is discharged from the underground well along the exhaust pipe 6, and the liquid rises along the flow channel and is injected back into the injection layer 1.

A one-way valve 5 is arranged at the lower end of the gas-liquid separator 3. The upper end of the oil pipe 10 is connected to the power fluid circulation system. The power fluid circulation system circulates the power fluid through the oil pipe 10, thereby controlling the downhole pump operation, thereby eliminating the rod column structure.

[0034] In this embodiment, the downhole pump includes an upper plunger pump, a lower plunger pump and a hollow connecting rod 11 connecting the two, that is, a two-stage plunger pump. The upper plunger pump and the lower plunger pump are both two-stage plunger structures (one large and one small two-stage plunger structure), and the upper plunger pump includes an upper large pump barrel 12, an upper small pump barrel 13, and an upper large plunger 14 and an upper small plunger 15 used in conjunction with the two, that is, the upper large plunger 14 and the upper small plunger 15 can slide in the upper large pump barrel 12 and the upper small pump barrel 13 respectively, and the inner cavity height of the upper large pump barrel 12 is much greater than the height of the upper large plunger 14 to form a liquid storage cavity. The lower-level plunger pump includes a lower-level large pump barrel 16, a lower-level small pump barrel 17, and a lower-level large plunger 18 and a lower-level small plunger 19 used in conjunction with the lower-level large pump barrel 16 and the lower-level small pump barrel 17, respectively. That is, the lower-level large plunger 18 and the lower-level small plunger 19 can slide in the lower-level large pump barrel 16 and the lower-level small pump barrel 17, respectively. A gap is left between the upper-level large pump barrel 12 and the upper-level small pump barrel 13, and the oil pipe 10 is connected to the gap. The power fluid from the oil pipe 10 enters the gap to control the lifting of the upper-level large plunger 14 and the upper-level small plunger 15. The flow channel is set through the upper-level plunger pump, the lower-level plunger pump and the hollow connecting rod 11, and a fixed valve 7 and a floating valve 8 are set in the flow channel located at the lower-level large plunger 18. The upper end of the upper large pump barrel 12 is provided with a bridge injection joint 20, which is connected to the injection layer 1, and can discharge the gas discharged along the oil pipe 10 into the exhaust pipe 6, and can also discharge the liquid in the hydraulic cavity out of the oil pipe 10 and enter the injection layer 1 from the oil pipe 10. The lower small pump barrel 17 is connected to the gas-liquid separator 3.

[0035] In this embodiment, a filter is disposed at the lower end of the oil pipe 10, and the filter includes a screen tube 21 and a plug 22 disposed at the lower end of the screen tube 21. The screen tube 21 is provided with dense screen holes. The fluid in the production layer 2 is initially filtered through the filter.

[0036] In this embodiment, the power fluid circulation system includes a storage tank 23, a boost pump 24, a first solenoid valve 25 and a second solenoid valve 26. The storage tank 23 and the boost pump 24 are connected to form a circulation loop through two pipelines, one of which is provided with a first solenoid valve 25 and a second solenoid valve 26. The pipeline between the first solenoid valve 25 and the second solenoid valve 26 is connected to the oil pipe 10. The circulation of the power fluid is realized by opening and closing the first solenoid valve 25 and the second solenoid valve 26. A valve valve 27 is provided on the exhaust pipe 6. In order to keep the boost pump 24 running, a branch storage tank 23 can also be provided on the pipeline between the boost pump 24 and the solenoid valve at its output end.

[0037] Example 2, based on Example 1, this example further refines the structure of the same-well water injection and gas production system according to the positional relationship between the injection layer 1 and the production layer 2 in the underground well. In this example, the injection layer 1 is located above the production layer 2, that is, the system is used for "mining below and injecting above" operations. At this time, the exhaust pipe 6 is inserted into the oil pipe 10, and the bridge injection joint 20 is connected to the upper large pump barrel 12 and the casing 9.

[0038] In this embodiment, the one-way valve 5 is an upward flow one-way valve 5, which relies on its own gravity to close the valve.

[0039] Example 3, based on Example 1, this example further refines the structure of the same-well water injection and gas production system according to the positional relationship between the injection layer 1 and the production layer 2 in the underground well. In this example, the injection layer 1 is located below the production layer 2, that is, the system is used for "production above and injection below" operation. At this time, the exhaust pipe 6 is connected to the gap between the oil pipe 10 and the casing 9, and the bridge injection joint 20 is connected to the upper large pump barrel 12 and the oil pipe 10.

The power fluid pushes the upper large plunger 14 and the upper small plunger 15 upward, and the pressure in the upper end cavity of the upper large pump barrel 12 increases. The liquid in the upper end cavity of the upper large pump barrel 12 is discharged from the bridge injection joint 20, and goes down along the gap between the casing 9 and the oil pipe 10 to enter the injection Enter layer 1; at the same time, the hollow connecting rod 11 at the lower part of the upper small plunger 15 moves upward, and the hollow connecting rod 11 drives the lower plunger pump upward, and the pressure in the suction chamber of the lower plunger pump decreases, and the floating valve 8 is closed. Under the action of the sinking pressure, the fixed valve 7 opens, and the fluid of the production layer 2 is first filtered by the filter, and then enters the gas-liquid separator 3 through the one-way valve 5. The liquid separated by entering the gas-liquid separator 3 flows into the suction chamber of the lower plunger pump to complete the liquid suction. At the same time, the separated gas goes up along the gap between the oil pipe 10 and the downhole pump, enters the exhaust pipe 6, and then moves upward to be discharged to the ground; S2. Down stroke: When the upper large plunger 14 and the upper small plunger 15 reach the top dead center, the power fluid circulation system draws the power fluid in the oil pipe 10 out of the oil pipe 10, the upper large plunger 14 and the upper small plunger 15 move downward, and the hollow connecting rod 11 pushes the lower plunger pump downward (or pushes the lower large plunger 18 and the lower small plunger 19 downward), the pressure in the suction chamber of the lower plunger pump increases, the fixed valve 7 closes, the floating valve 8 opens, and the liquid in the suction chamber is discharged into the upper chamber of the upper large pump barrel 12 along the flow channel.

At the same time, the separated gas goes up along the gap between the oil pipe 10 and the casing 9, enters the exhaust pipe 6, and then moves upward to be discharged to the ground; S2.
