Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric power equipment, in particular to an improved downhole penetrator with a straight plug. Background Art
[0002] The electric pump wellhead device is a very common artificial lift oil production equipment. When there is not enough pressure at the bottom of the well to push the crude oil to form self-flowing ability, it is necessary to place an electric submersible pump into the oil layer to work. The electric submersible pump is usually provided with power by connecting cables. When connecting cables, they will inevitably pass through the electric pump wellhead device. Passing through the wellhead must be done with the help of a cable passer to ensure pressure bearing and sealing during the crossing process.
[0003] A cable passer is a device used to penetrate the tubing hanger and upper flange at the wellhead of an electric submersible pump and connect the downhole electric submersible pump to the surface power supply. It changes the traditional cable passing method and has the characteristics of good safety, high sealing and easy operation. The cable passer includes a cable passer body and a plug.
[0004] In the prior art, the connection between the cable transit body and the adapter and the downhole isolation device has the following disadvantages during installation: 1. Low installation efficiency, increased offshore operation time, and increased cost investment; 2. During downhole installation, the upper end cable may twist and rotate, causing damage to the cable insulation layer. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the downhole penetrator in the prior art, the present invention proposes an improved downhole penetrator with a straight plug. The detailed technical solution is as follows:
[0006] An improved downhole passer with a straight plug comprises a straight plug and a cable passer body. A first shell with an internal thread is provided on one side of the straight plug, and a second shell with an external thread is provided on the corresponding side of the cable passer. The first shell and the second shell are threaded and snap-fitted together.
[0007] Furthermore, the straight plug includes a screw located on one side, a connecting hole located on the other side and protruding from the straight plug, and a first shell located outside the side wall of the straight plug.
[0008] Furthermore, an insulating sealing gasket, an elastic electrode ring and a conductive tube are also provided in the connecting hole.
[0009] Furthermore, an insulating conductive rod is provided in the main body of the cable crosser; and a red dot for identification is provided on the second shell.
[0010] Furthermore, the second shell includes a connecting portion with an external thread, an inwardly recessed and annular shape, for engaging with the engaging portion of the first shell.
[0011] Furthermore, when the straight plug is threadedly connected to the cable pass-through body, the insulating conductive rod is inserted into the elastic electrode ring through the connecting hole and connected to the conductive cylinder.
[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are: utilizing the threaded engagement connection between the straight plug and the cable pass-through body to reduce offshore operation time and improve installation efficiency; and preventing damage to the cable insulation layer caused by twisting and rotation of the upper end cable during downhole installation.
