TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of multiphase flow mixed transportation, and particularly relates to an ultra-long stroke piston type mixed transportation pump capable of transporting high gas rate or even pure gas for oil and gas field exploitation. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of oil and gas field gathering and transportation, especially in the exploitation process of deep sea oil fields and marginal oil fields, in order to reduce equipment investment and operation cost, a multiphase flow mixed transportation process is often used, that is, a mixed transportation pump is used to directly transport the multiphase flow of oil, gas and water produced from the well to the processing facility, thereby saving the pre-separation link. At present, the pump types suitable for multiphase flow mixed transportation mainly include single screw pump, double screw pump and traditional piston type volumetric pump, etc. However, these pump types all have obvious technical bottlenecks when dealing with high gas rate medium.
[0003] The stator of the single screw pump is usually made of rubber. Under high gas rate working condition, the heat generated by gas compression and friction is difficult to effectively dissipate, which causes the rubber stator to accelerate aging, deformation and even ablation under heat, and the service life is significantly shortened.
[0004] The double screw pump has certain gas-liquid mixed transportation capacity, but the gap between the rotors is extremely precise. If the medium contains solid particles, it is easy to cause wear. Under high gas rate working condition, the volumetric efficiency is seriously reduced, the heat problem further aggravates the gap leakage, and the operation stability and efficiency are rapidly deteriorated.
[0005] The traditional piston pump is limited by the crank slider mechanism, and the ratio of the piston stroke to the piston diameter is small. The piston stroke is usually twice the radius of the crank, only tens to hundreds of millimeters. The too short stroke causes the high-pressure gas remaining in the cylinder after the compression stroke to occupy too much effective volume during the expansion stage, greatly reducing the effective stroke, seriously affecting the total amount of mixed transportation medium entering, causing the "gas lock" phenomenon, and the higher the gas rate of the mixed transportation medium, the more serious the problem, which causes the efficiency of the pump to drop sharply or even unable to work normally.
[0006] In order to solve the above problems, some improved mixed transportation devices have appeared in the prior art. For example, Chinese invention patent CN109114433A discloses a "double-cavity liquid reciprocating drive multiphase flow mixed transportation method and device", which alternately forms a vacuum suction chamber and a compression discharge chamber through left and right double-tank structures, so that the power pump only circulates the working liquid, thereby avoiding the direct impact of the multiphase medium on the pump body, and to some extent, the applicability of the ordinary water pump under multiphase flow working condition is expanded.
[0007] The technical scheme still faces some challenges in actual application. Since there is no piston isolation, gas is easily dissolved in the circulating liquid under high pressure, and part of it will separate from the liquid after the pressure decreases, affecting the accuracy of liquid level detection and leading to control failure. There is no treatment measure for solid particles, which will damage the power pump after being sucked in. When conveying pure gas, the conveying medium directly contacts the circulating liquid, which may cause the medium to mix into the circulating liquid, limiting its use range. The overall flow of the system is difficult to improve due to the limited diameter of the electromagnetic valve, and it is difficult to adapt to the demand for large flow mixed conveying. Only vertical installation is supported, which is inconvenient for maintenance and difficult to maintain.
[0008] Therefore, the existing mixed conveying technology still has the problems of poor reliability, low efficiency, weak adaptability and medium mixing risk under high gas content conditions, and the industry urgently needs to develop an innovative mixed conveying pump device with reasonable structure, which can completely isolate the medium, adapt to high gas content, have large flow conveying capacity, and be stable and long in service life, to fill the current technical gap and promote the development of multi-phase flow mixed conveying technology to a more efficient and reliable direction.

[0044] The working process of the present application is as follows: After the equipment is first enabled or overhauled, the hydraulic system needs to be initially filled with liquid and vented, and the specific steps are as follows: System isolation: close the cylinder A switch valve 4-11, the cylinder B switch valve 5-11 and the pressure regulating valve 10-1 at the inlet of the energy storage tank 10, then disconnect the pipeline connection between the cylinder A switch valve 4-11 and the cylinder B switch valve 5-11 and the two-position four-way plug valve 11, and simultaneously disconnect the connection between the energy storage tank 10 and the outlet of the liquid delivery pump 9.

[0049] At this time, the power fluid is located in the first flow direction (corresponding to the state of the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 moving right and the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 moving left) Figure 1 State): When the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 moves right and the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 moves left, the power fluid sequentially passes through: the cylinder A power cavity 4-4, the cylinder A switch valve 4-11, the A port 11-2 of the cartridge valve, the T port 11-5 of the cartridge valve, the power fluid pipeline 8 in the radiator 7, the pump inlet 9-1 of the liquid delivery pump 9, the pump outlet 9-2 of the liquid delivery pump 9, the P port 11-3 of the cartridge valve and the energy storage tank 10, the B port 11-4 of the cartridge valve, the cylinder B switch valve 5-11, and the cylinder B power cavity 5-4.
[0050] When the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 moves to the right end to trigger the cylinder A right stroke switch 4-8, and the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 moves to the left end to trigger the cylinder B left stroke switch 5-7, the two switch signals are sent to the controller 13 at the same time, triggering the reversing.
[0051] The controller 13 responds to this signal combination and immediately sends a reversing instruction to the reversing valve 11-1 of the two-position four-way cartridge valve 11 to perform the reversing.
[0052] Referring to Figure 2 , the reversing valve 11-1 is in the power-on state, that is, the second working position, the second and fourth of the four cone valves from left to right are opened, at this time, the P port 11-3 of the cartridge valve is communicated with the A port 11-2 of the cartridge valve, the B port 11-4 of the cartridge valve is communicated with the T port 11-5 of the cartridge valve, the power fluid is changed to flow from the P port to the A port, enters the cylinder A power cavity 4-4, and drives the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 to move left, at the same time, the power fluid in the cylinder B power cavity 5-4 flows to the pump inlet 9-1 of the liquid delivery pump 9 through the B port 11-4 of the cartridge valve and the T port 11-5 of the cartridge valve, at this time, the cylinder A transport cavity 4-1 discharges the medium, the cylinder B transport cavity 5-1 inhales the medium, and the piston moves reversely.
[0053] At this time, the power fluid is located in the second flow direction (corresponding to the state of the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 moving left and the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 moving right) Figure 2(Status): When cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 moves to the left and cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 moves to the right, the power fluid passes through the following in sequence: cylinder B power chamber 5-4, cylinder B switching valve 5-11, cartridge valve B port 11-4, cartridge valve T port 11-5, power fluid line 8 in radiator 7, pump inlet 9-1 of liquid transfer pump 9, pump outlet 9-2 of liquid transfer pump 9, cartridge valve P port 11-3 and accumulator 10, cartridge valve A port 11-2, cylinder A switching valve 4-11, and cylinder A power chamber 4-4.
[0054] When the piston moves to the other end, triggering the left travel switch 4-7 of cylinder A and the right travel switch 5-8 of cylinder B, the controller 13 commands the reversal again. This cycle repeats, with the pistons of the two cylinders performing alternating linear motions in opposite directions, achieving continuous and stable delivery of the medium. At the moment of reversal, the hydraulic shock generated in the system is effectively absorbed and buffered by the accumulator 10, ensuring stable operation.
[0055] To ensure safety, if the controller 13 fails to simultaneously detect the signals of the right limit switch 4-8 of cylinder A and the left limit switch 5-7 of cylinder B within the preset working cycle, or fails to simultaneously detect the signals of the left limit switch 4-7 of cylinder A and the right limit switch 5-8 of cylinder B, it will determine that the piston is out of sync or the limit switch is malfunctioning. The controller 13 will immediately generate a system fault signal and execute a safety shutdown procedure to stop the operation of the pump motor 9-3 of the liquid transfer pump 9.
[0056] System cooling and heat dissipation: The coolant first enters the cylinder block B cooling chamber 5-2 through the cylinder block B coolant inlet 5-9, absorbing the waste heat of cylinder block B5; after flowing out, it flows through the coolant line 6 in the radiator 7 for initial cooling; then, it enters the cylinder block A cooling chamber 4-2 through the cylinder block A coolant inlet 4-9, absorbing the waste heat of cylinder block A4; finally, it is discharged from the cylinder block A coolant outlet 4-10, forming a complete series cooling loop; at the same time, the power fluid flows in the power fluid line 8 in the radiator 7 and exchanges heat with the coolant line 6 in the opposite direction. The heat of the two cylinder blocks and the power fluid is managed simultaneously by a single radiator, ensuring the thermal balance of the system.
[0057] Example 2: Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a skid-mounted ultra-long stroke piston-type high gas content mixed pump. The core working principle, component composition and working process of this mixed pump are the same as those of Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
[0058] The unique feature of this embodiment is that the mixed pump system is integrated into a skid mount. Specifically, the mixed pump system is fixed on a skid mount base, which is a rigid frame structure. It has been precisely designed and mechanically analyzed to have sufficient rigidity and strength to withstand the weight of the equipment, operating vibrations, and complex loads during transportation.
[0059] All core components, including cylinder A 4, cylinder B 5, radiator 7, liquid delivery pump 9, energy storage tank 10, two-position four-way cartridge valve 11 and controller 13, are firmly installed on the pry base according to the optimized spatial layout by means of bolt connection, welding and the like, and the corresponding hydraulic lines and electrical lines are also preferably regularly laid and fixed on the base frame.
[0060] The pry design is based on the compact structure and high correlation of the core components in embodiment 1, realizes systematic integration, and brings the following advantages: first, since all components can be integrated and debugged in the factory, the equipment can be quickly put into operation after being transported to the site, greatly shortening the production cycle in scenarios such as marginal oil fields; second, the integrated rigid base not only provides convenience for equipment transportation, but also suppresses and disperses the running vibration through its overall rigidity, improving the long-term stability and reliability of the system; in addition, the centralized layout also facilitates daily maintenance and management.
[0061] Embodiment 3: As shown in Figure 5 When it is necessary to increase the delivery flow, simply increasing the piston reciprocating speed will exacerbate the pulsation of the output flow and pressure. Benefiting from the pry modular flexible design, the present application can increase the number of execution units in parallel to realize flow improvement, thereby avoiding excessively high single piston speed. This embodiment preferably increases two cylinders with the same structure: cylinder C 19 and cylinder D 20, which are connected in parallel with the original cylinder A 4 and cylinder B 5, i.e., cylinder C 19 is connected in parallel with cylinder A 4, and cylinder D 20 is connected in parallel with cylinder B 5. Specifically, the medium suction line (connecting the inlet check valve), the medium discharge line (connecting the outlet check valve), the power fluid line (connecting the switch valve) and the cooling liquid line (cooling liquid outlet and inlet) of them are connected in parallel, and the left and right stroke switches of cylinder C 19 and cylinder D 20 are electrically connected to controller 13.
[0062] The control logic is the same as that of embodiment 1, but the action object is expanded to four cylinders, and the controller 13 is configured to execute the following cycle: The reversing valve 11-1 of the two-position four-way cartridge valve 11 is in the first position, at this time, the power fluid simultaneously enters the cylinder B power cavity 5-4 and the cylinder D power cavity, drives the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 and the cylinder D isolation piston to move to the direction of the respective transport cavities; at the same time, the power fluid in the cylinder A power cavity 4-4 and the cylinder C power cavity flows back, driving the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 and the cylinder C isolation piston to move to the direction of the respective power cavities.
[0063] When the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 and the cylinder C isolation piston both trigger their right stroke switches, and the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 and the cylinder D isolation piston both trigger their left stroke switches, the controller 13 controls the reversing valve 11-1 to switch to the second station.
[0064] In the second station, the power fluid enters the cylinder A power cavity 4-4 and the cylinder C power cavity at the same time, drives the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 and the cylinder C isolation piston to move in the direction of the respective transport cavities; at the same time, the power fluid in the cylinder B power cavity 5-4 and the cylinder D power cavity flows back, drives the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 and the cylinder D isolation piston to move in the direction of the respective power cavities.
[0065] When the cylinder A isolation piston 4-3 and the cylinder C isolation piston both trigger their left stroke switches, and the cylinder B isolation piston 5-3 and the cylinder D isolation piston both trigger their right stroke switches, the controller 13 controls the reversing valve 11-1 to switch back to the first station.
[0066] The embodiment retains all the technical advantages of the embodiments 1 and 2, and through the above-mentioned pry-mounted and modular integrated design, not only solves the engineering problems of the large-scale mixed delivery pump in the aspects of movement, installation and deployment, but also realizes linear expansion of the delivery capacity (as shown by four cylinders in parallel), and does not need to change the core hydraulic and control logic, and the design is particularly suitable for the working conditions needing quick deployment, movement, capacity expansion or limited space, and provides higher engineering practicability, flexibility and economy.
[0067] In summary, the application successfully provides a multiphase flow mixed delivery solution capable of adapting to super-high gas rate, large flow, no pollution and reliable operation through the cooperative design of the super-long stroke piston isolation, the large-flow cartridge valve hydraulic drive, the closed-loop intelligent control and the high-efficiency cooling.
[0068] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the application and is not used to limit the application, although the application is described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, the skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalently replace some technical features, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the application should be included in the protection scope of the application.
