Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil machinery, and particularly relates to a combined polished rod break-off and blowout prevention wellhead device. Background Art

[0002] During the pumping process of a pumping well, due to long-term use, the polished rod often undergoes mechanical wear or corrosion and suddenly breaks. At this time, it is easy to cause a blowout of the pumping well, which not only causes losses of resources and property, but also the leakage of crude oil will cause great pollution to the environment. Moreover, with the development of digital monitoring in the well site, there is often no one on duty. The existing stuffing box at the wellhead can play a sealing role, but there are deficiencies. After the polished rod at the wellhead breaks off, it cannot be effectively controlled in the first time, resulting in relatively serious environmental pollution at the well site and a large amount of crude oil loss. Currently, the common types of stuffing boxes used for wellhead sealing in oil fields are rack and core eccentric stuffing boxes, double-seal universal deviation-adjusting stuffing boxes, etc. These types of stuffing boxes do not have a polished rod break-off and blowout prevention device. In the case of a sudden break of the polished rod, the wellhead cannot be closed in time and effectively, resulting in the ejection of crude oil and environmental pollution, and there are great potential safety hazards.
