Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of petroleum downhole fracturing and relates to a connecting device for downhole fracturing. Background Art

[0002] Oil fracturing refers to a method of using hydraulic force to form cracks in oil and gas layers during oil or gas production, also known as hydraulic fracturing. The principle is to use a high-pressure ground pump group to inject a large amount of high-viscosity liquid into the formation through the wellbore, and build up high pressure at the bottom of the well. When the pressure exceeds the bearing capacity of the formation, cracks will form in the formation near the bottom of the well. Continue to inject liquid carrying proppants, and the cracks will gradually extend forward. The proppants play a role in supporting the cracks, forming sand-filled cracks with a certain size and high conductivity, so that oil and gas can easily flow into the well through the cracks, thereby increasing the oil and gas seepage channel and greatly increasing production. During the oil fracturing process, if the pressure in the oil fracturing pipe cannot be actively applied, a series of problems may arise, which will not only affect the fracturing effect, but may also lead to production safety accidents.

[0003] The main purpose of oil fracturing is to use high pressure to fracture the rock layer under the well to form cracks so that the oil can flow out more smoothly. If the pressure in the fracturing pipe cannot be actively applied, then it will not be able to form enough pressure to fracture the rock layer, and the goal of increasing production cannot be achieved. This will lead to a decrease in the output of the oil well and affect the economic benefits of oil extraction.

[0004] If the pressure in the fracturing pipe is insufficient, the fracturing fluid may not be able to effectively enter the cracks, or may not be able to form effective support after entering the cracks. In this way, the cracks may close again after the pressure drops, which greatly reduces the fracturing effect. In addition, if the fracturing fluid cannot effectively support the cracks, the direction of crack expansion may be uncontrollable, thereby affecting the stability of the surrounding formations. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a downhole fracturing connection device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
