Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shale gas exploitation, and in particular to a gas field water floating oil efficient collection device and a use method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, my country mainly uses fracturing technology to exploit shale gas. A large amount of shale gas flowback fluid is generated in the production stage after drilling and fracturing. In order to save energy and resources and control environmental pollution, the generated shale gas flowback fluid will be transferred to the flowback fluid reservoir for storage and used on the next drilling platform as fracturing fluid for recycling. Due to the needs of some processes, the flowback fluid is always rich in various oils, hydrocarbons and other impurities. The density of these substances is generally less than that of water, forming "floating oil" on the water surface. If the "floating oil" remains on the surface of the pool for a long time, many problems will arise: the working environment and surrounding environment of the flowback fluid storage station are particularly smelly, which seriously threatens the health of staff and villagers; the risk pressure of environmental protection for enterprises is high; at the same time, the current domestic shale gas flowback fluid "floating oil" clearing technology is backward, the manpower consumption is large, the processing cost is high, and there is a great risk of work safety.

[0003] A Chinese patent document with authorization announcement number CN219907124U and publication date October 27, 2023 discloses a floating oil extraction device, including a controller, a floating oil detection part, a suction pump, a delivery pipeline, an oil suction cylinder, an isolator and a suspension frame for being set in a sewage pool, the isolator is fixed on the suspension frame, the oil suction cylinder is fixed in the isolator through the suspension frame, one end of the delivery pipeline is connected to the oil suction cylinder, and the other end is connected to the suction pump, the floating oil detection part is set in the sewage pool for detecting the thickness of the oil, the controller is respectively connected to the suction pump and the floating oil detection part, and the controller is used to control the opening and closing of the suction pump according to the detection results of the floating oil detection part. The device can automatically realize the extraction of floating oil, making the reinjection of wastewater safer and more efficient, and solving the problems of high safety risks, low operating efficiency, and untimely recovery in existing manual salvage methods.

[0004] However, during the use of the above device, the length of the floating oil suction pipe equipped with the equipment has a certain limit, and the length of the suction pipe cannot be too long, otherwise the resistance will be too large and the suction will be insufficient. At the same time, the suction pump on the shore is relatively fixed and the free movement range is very small. Therefore, this type is only suitable for sewage pools with small areas and large and relatively concentrated floating oil thickness, and is not suitable for floating oil salvage in shale gas return liquid reservoirs with ultra-large areas; and this type of equipment directly sucks sewage ashore, resulting in the floating oil composition being more water and less oil, and secondary separation treatment is required, and the overall work efficiency is relatively low. At the same time, the oil pump and other equipment consume a lot of electricity in operation, and the costs of mechanical maintenance, material consumption, operators, and maintenance human resources are high and continue to exist.
