Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of oil and gas development, and particularly relates to a wellbore string inner wall cleaning tool and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of oil and gas exploitation, a single connected oil pipe is mostly used as a production string to form a continuous channel for oil and gas exploitation. In the process of lifting crude oil in daily oil wells, as the pressure field and temperature field change, long-chain hydrocarbons will gradually solidify, form a mixture with sand and water scaling, and be adsorbed on the inner wall of the oil pipe, thereby affecting the efficiency of crude oil exploitation. In the process of lifting natural gas in natural gas wells, as the produced water in the gas reservoir changes with the pressure field, temperature field and liquid carrying speed, it will also cause the inner wall of the oil pipe to gradually scale, thereby affecting the flow area and causing subsequent measures to be blocked, affecting the gas recovery efficiency. At the same time, as a common way to maintain stable production of oilfields, the produced water of the oilfield is generally injected into the target layer at the bottom of the well through the oil pipe under high pressure. The scaling tendency of the produced water when injected will further cause the flow area of the oil pipe to become smaller, thereby reducing the reliability of the surface equipment and facilities. Therefore, the above three kinds of oil and gas production wells all need to be cleaned regularly.

[0003] The existing oil pipe inner wall can be cleaned by water injection, especially by re-injection of the produced water of the oil and gas field, which can save water resources while fully supplementing the formation energy to ensure the continuous exploitation of oil and gas. However, the produced water of the oil and gas field is easily scaled on the inner wall of the oil pipe due to the influence of water type and salinity, thereby increasing the water injection pressure when the produced water of the oil and gas field is re-injected, and the increase of the water injection pressure may cause damage to the parts of the water injection equipment, thereby increasing the intermittent cost of production and the maintenance cost of the equipment, and causing great safety risks. For example, the patent document with the publication number CN209025650U discloses an oil-water well downhole pipe string flushing device, which is a wellhead at the oil-water well operation site of the petroleum industry, and flushes the crude oil attached to the surface of the oil-water well downhole pipe string, protects the environment, and improves the operation efficiency. The downhole pipe string flushing device comprises a mud umbrella and a leak-proof pipe, the mud umbrella is fixed below the liquid inlet hole of the leak-proof pipe; the leak-proof pipe and the flushing pipe are connected through a flange and connecting bolts, the washing port is arranged on the pipe body of the flushing pipe, the liquid storage bag is arranged outside the washing port, the outer wall of the liquid storage bag is provided with a liquid inlet, and the liquid outlet is arranged on the pipe body of the flushing pipe below the liquid storage bag.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The embodiment of the present application provides a wellbore string inner wall cleaning tool, which comprises a cylinder body 100, a first piston 200, a second piston 300 and a blocking piece 400. The first channel is arranged in the cylinder body 100 in the axial direction, and the through hole 110 is arranged on the outer periphery of the cylinder body 100. The first piston 200 is movably arranged in one end of the first channel in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100, and the outer wall of the first piston 200 is attached to the inner wall of the first channel. The second piston 300 is movably arranged in the other end of the first channel in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100, and the outer wall of the second piston 300 is attached to the inner wall of the first channel. The second channel is arranged in the second piston 300 in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100, and the water outlet end of the second channel is arranged towards the first piston 200 and communicates with the first channel. The blocking piece 400 is movably arranged at the water inlet end of the second channel.

[0051] Specifically, the cylinder body 100 is a main cylinder body, the first piston 200 is movably arranged in one end of the first channel in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100, and the outer wall of the first piston 200 is attached to the inner wall of the first channel, so that when the outer wall of the first piston 200 coincides with the through hole 110 of the cylinder body 100, the through hole 110 can be blocked by the outer wall of the first piston 200. When the cleaning liquid is delivered, the cleaning liquid can pass through the second channel of the second piston 300 and reach the first channel of the cylinder body 100 through the water outlet end of the second channel to press the first piston 200 and move the first piston 200 in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100 until the first piston 200 is dislocated from the through hole 110 of the cylinder body 100, so that the cleaning liquid in the first channel can be sprayed out of the through hole 110 to clean the inner wall of the wellbore. The movement of the first piston 200 can also provide buffering, so that the starting pressure during cleaning is maintained within a safe range to reduce the pressure on the parts. After cleaning is completed, the blocking piece 400 is arranged at the water inlet end of the second channel and is moved along with the continuous delivery of the cleaning liquid to press the second piston 300 and move the second piston 300 in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100 until the outer wall of the second piston 300 coincides with the through hole 110, so that the through hole 110 is re-blocked by the outer wall of the second piston 300 to facilitate the removal of the whole string. The movement of the second piston 300 can also provide buffering to further reduce the pressure on the parts and achieve the purpose of safely pulling out the string.

[0052] In some specific embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 6 , the pipe body 500 is coaxially arranged on the inner wall of the cylinder body 100, so that the inner wall of the pipe body 500 encloses the first channel. The through slot 510 is arranged on the outer periphery of the pipe body 500, and the through hole 110 communicates with the first channel when the through hole 110 coincides with the through slot 510.

[0053] Specifically, the pipe body 500 is coaxially arranged in the barrel 100 and located between the inner wall of the barrel 100 and the outer wall of the first piston 200 and the outer wall of the second piston 300. The outer periphery of the pipe body 500 is provided with a through slot 510, and when the through hole 110 coincides with the through slot 510, the through hole 110 is in communication with the first channel. The relative position relationship and the degree of mutual coincidence between the through slot 510 and the through hole 110 can be adjusted by rotating the through slot 510 through the pipe body 500, so that the injection angle range of the cleaning liquid can be increased through the cooperation of the through slot 510 and the through hole 110.

[0054] Further, the circumferential outer wall of the pipe body 500 is completely nested on the inner wall of the barrel 100, so that the first channel enclosed by the inner wall of the pipe body 500 can be in communication with the channel in the barrel 100.

[0055] When the cleaning is not started, one end of the first piston 200 is arranged in the pipe body 500 from one end of the pipe body 500, and the other end of the first piston 200 is arranged out of the corresponding end of the barrel 100, wherein the outer wall of the one end of the first piston 200 arranged in the pipe body 500 coincides with the through slot 510 of the pipe body 500. One end of the second piston 300 is arranged in the pipe body 500 from one end of the pipe body 500, and the other end of the second piston 300 extends to the corresponding end of the barrel 100. When the cleaning liquid starts to be transported into the second channel of the second piston 300, the cleaning liquid passes through the second channel and reaches the pipe body 500 through the water outlet end of the second channel to press the first piston 200, and when the pressure in the pipe body 500 reaches the first pressure value, the hydraulic pressure drives the first piston 200 to move along the axial direction of the barrel 100 away from the second piston 300, until the outer wall of the one end of the first piston 200 arranged in the pipe body 500 is dislocated from the through slot 510 of the pipe body 500, so as to remove the blockage of the through slot 510, and at the same time, the hydraulic pressure also drives the pipe body 500 to rotate relative to the barrel 100 in the circumferential direction, so that the through slot 510 coincides with the through hole 110 of the barrel 100, and then the cleaning liquid in the pipe body 500 can be sprayed out through the through slot 510 and the through hole 110 in turn, so as to realize the cleaning of the inner wall of the wellbore. When the inner wall of the wellbore is cleaned, the blocking member 400 is arranged at the water inlet end of the second channel, and when the pressure at the water inlet end of the second channel reaches the second pressure value, the hydraulic pressure drives the second piston 300 to move along the axial direction of the barrel 100 to approach the first piston 200, until the outer wall of the one end of the second piston 300 arranged in the pipe body 500 coincides with the through slot 510 of the pipe body 500, so as to stop the injection of the cleaning liquid.

[0056] Further, the outer wall of the one end of the first piston 200 located outside the barrel 100 is provided with a thread, which is convenient for connecting with other pipe string equipment.

[0057] Further, the outer wall of the end of the second piston 300 away from the first piston 200 is sleeved with a fixed block 320, the fixed block 320 is a bowl-shaped structure, so that the bowl-shaped structure of the fixed block 320 is formed around the water inlet end of the second channel to form a slope surface arranged around the water inlet end of the second channel. The blocking piece 400 is a sphere, when the blocking piece 400 is lowered, the blocking piece 400 can be covered on the water inlet end of the second channel along the slope surface, so as to realize the blocking of the water inlet end of the second channel.

[0058] Further, the outer wall of the fixed frame is threadedly connected with the inner wall of the barrel 100.

One of the thrust bearings 150 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the first piston 200, and the other thrust bearing 150 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the second piston 300, so as to avoid affecting the movement of the first piston 200 and the second piston 300.

[0062] Specifically, referring to Figure 4 , the outer wall of the end of the first piston 200 penetrating into the pipe body 500 is circumferentially provided with a first outer boss 210, and the outer wall of the first outer boss 210 is attached to the inner wall of the pipe body 500, so that the first outer boss 210 is moved to block and unblock the through slot 510 of the pipe body 500. Referring to Figure 2, the inner wall of the one end of the cylinder body 100, in which the first piston 200 is arranged, is provided with a third inner boss 120, and the first outer boss 210 and the third inner boss 120 coincide with each other in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100, after the cleaning liquid is delivered, when the first piston 200 moves in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100 away from the second piston 300 and moves to a first preset position, the third inner boss 120 abuts against the first outer boss 210, thereby realizing the clamping of the first piston 200 and the cylinder body 100, so as to avoid the first piston 200 from being taken out of the cylinder body 100. Referring to Figure 5 , the outer wall of the one end of the pipe body 500, in which the second piston 300 is arranged, is provided with a second outer boss 310, and the outer wall of the second outer boss 310 is attached to the inner wall of the pipe body 500, so that the pipe body 500 can also be blocked and unblocked through the movement of the second outer boss 310. Referring to Figure 6 , the inner wall of the one end of the pipe body 500, in which the first piston 200 is arranged, is provided with a fourth inner boss 530, and the fourth inner boss 530 is located on the side of the second outer boss 310 away from the first piston 200, and the second outer boss 310 and the fourth inner boss 530 coincide with each other in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100, when the second piston 300 moves in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100 away from the second piston 300 and moves to a second preset position, the fourth inner boss 530 abuts against the second outer boss 310, thereby realizing the clamping of the second piston 300 and the pipe body 500, so as to avoid the second piston 300 from being taken out of the pipe body 500.

[0063] Further, the outer wall of the first outer boss 210 is provided with an annular groove, and a sealing ring is embedded in the annular groove, so as to ensure the sealing effect.

[0064] Further, the first piston 200, the second piston 300, the cylinder body 100 and the pipe body 500 are all made of 35CrMo in a quenched and tempered state, and the final heat treatment state is 200HB to 250HB.

[0065] Further, one of the two thrust bearings 150 is located on the side of the third inner boss 120 close to the first outer boss 210, so that the first piston 200 can abut against the third inner boss 120 through the thrust bearing 150. The other thrust bearing 150 is located on the one end of the pipe body 500 away from the third inner boss 120, and the side of the thrust bearing 150 away from the pipe body 500 is provided with a limiting nail on the inner wall of the cylinder body 100, so that the two thrust bearings 150 and the pipe body 500 can be limited between the limiting nail and the third inner boss 120, so as to avoid the pipe body 500 from moving in the axial direction of the cylinder body 100.

[0066] Further, the two thrust bearings 150 are both of the 51305 type.

Before the cleaning is started, the second shear pin 140 is screwed between the end of the barrel 100 away from the first piston 200 and the outer wall of the fixed block 320, thereby fixedly connecting the second piston 300 and the barrel 100. When the pressure of the second piston 300 reaches the second pressure value, the second shear pin 140 is broken, thereby driving the second piston 300 to move. The first shear pin 130 and the second shear pin 140 are arranged to maintain the pressure within a safe range.
