Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield development technology, specifically to a biodegradable fiber injection device for oilfield fracturing. Background Technology
[0002] Oilfield fracturing, also known as hydraulic fracturing or hydraulic fracture, is a production enhancement measure used to increase the output of oil and gas wells. This technology is mainly applied to low-permeability reservoirs, such as shale gas and tight sandstone oil and gas fields. By injecting high-pressure fluid (usually a mixture of water, sand and a small amount of chemical additives) deep underground, fractures in the formation can be created or enlarged, thereby increasing the flow channels for oil and gas, allowing more oil and gas to flow into the wellbore and be extracted.
[0003] In the process of oil and gas extraction, fracturing is a key technology that creates fractures by injecting high-pressure fluids into the ground, thereby increasing oil and gas production. In order to improve the fracturing effect and reduce the environmental impact, researchers have begun to explore the use of biodegradable fiber materials as part of the proppant. These fibers can help keep the fractures open and can decompose naturally over time without causing long-term environmental pollution. However, traditional injection equipment has difficulty in accurately controlling the quantity and distribution of biodegradable fibers, which limits its application effect. Summary of the Invention

A second handle 309 is fixedly connected to the center of the front of the sealing plate 308. A liquid outlet pipe 310 is fixedly connected to the lower center of the left side of the right storage cylinder 302. A third control valve 311 is provided in the center of the front of the liquid outlet pipe 310. A weighing sensor 301 can monitor the amount of fiber and sand-carrying liquid inside the storage cylinder 302. Precise control and measurement are performed to ensure compliance with requirements.

The first handle 305 facilitates the operator to remove the cover disc 304. The discharge pipe 306 connects between the middle right side of the left storage cylinder 302 and the middle left side of the upper surface of the threaded cover 202. Fibers inside the left storage cylinder 302 can enter through the discharge pipe 306. Inside the tank 1, a rectangular groove 307 runs through the center of the front of the discharge pipe 306. A sealing plate 308 can be inserted into the rectangular groove 307 to block it and control its flow. A second handle 309 allows the operator to easily remove the sealing plate 308.

The sand-carrying liquid inside the right storage cylinder 302 can enter the tank 1 through the liquid outlet pipe 310. A third control valve 311 is used to control its flow effect.
[0021] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a motor 204 is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper surface of the threaded cover 202, a rotating rod 205 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the motor 204, and a number of blades 206 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating rod 205.
[0022] Through the above technical solution, the motor 204 drives the blades 206 on the outer surface to rotate inside the tank 1 via the rotating rod 205 at the bottom, so as to mix, crush and stir the fibers and sand-carrying liquid inside, ensuring that the fibers are evenly distributed in the liquid.
[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a control device 103 is fixedly installed in the center of the front of the tank body 1, and a feed pipe 104 is fixedly connected in the center of the lower surface of the tank body 1. A first control valve 105 is provided in the center of the right side of the feed pipe 104.
[0024] Through the above technical solution, the control device 103 is used to control the operation and stop of various electrical devices in the device, and to understand the status and changes of various data in real time. The material inside the tank 1 is discharged outward through the discharge pipe 104, and the first control valve 105 is used to control the flow of the discharge pipe 104.
[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a number of sampling tubes 106 are fixedly connected to the middle right side of the tank body 1, and a second control valve 107 is provided in the middle front of the sampling tube 106. A liquid sight tube 108 is fixedly connected to the middle left side of the tank body 1.
[0026] Through the above technical solution, the sampling tube 106 is connected to the inside of the tank 1, and the three sampling tubes 106 correspond to the upper, middle and lower areas inside the tank 1 respectively, which can effectively sample and observe the materials inside, making it easier for staff to understand the condition of the materials inside the tank 1. The second control valve 107 is used to control the flow of the sampling tube 106, and the liquid sight tube 108 allows operators to understand the liquid level inside the tank 1 in real time.
[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, a placement plate 109 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the middle of the back side of the tank 1, an ultrasonic generator 110 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the placement plate 109, and a transducer 111 is provided in the middle of the lower part of the back side of the tank 1.
[0028] Through the above technical solution, an ultrasonic generator 110 is installed above the placement plate 109. The ultrasonic generator 110 generates a high-frequency electrical signal, which is transmitted to the transducer 111 and converted into mechanical vibration of the same frequency. The mechanical vibration is transmitted to the material inside the tank 1 to form ultrasonic waves, thereby improving the mixing efficiency of the fibers.
[0029] During use, the operator places the fiber and sand-carrying liquid into two storage cylinders 302 respectively, and covers the storage cylinders 302 with the sealing plate 303 at the bottom of the cover plate 304 to seal the inside. The liquid level inside the tank 1 is observed through the liquid sight tube 108. The material inside the tank 1 is sampled and checked from time to time through three sampling tubes 106 to determine whether fiber and sand-carrying liquid need to be added. When addition is needed, the sealing plate 308 is pulled out, the third control valve 311 is opened, and the data change transmitted to the control device 103 by the weighing sensor 301 controls the amount of fiber and sand-carrying liquid added. After addition is completed, the sealing plate 308 is inserted back and the third control valve 311 is closed. The motor 204 drives the blades 206 to stir and mix the fiber and sand-carrying liquid through the rotating rod 205 at the bottom to ensure that it is evenly distributed. Finally, the first control valve 105 is opened to discharge it.
