Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas production technology in oil and gas fields, in particular to a buffer device for sand-containing media. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous breakthroughs in natural gas exploration and development technology, large-volume sand-added fracturing technology is increasingly being used in the transformation of ultra-deep and high-pressure gas reservoirs. However, after the gas wells using large-volume sand-added fracturing technology are put into production, the fracturing wells generally produce a large amount of sand due to the influence of the self-generated sand after the formation is damaged by fracturing, the supporting sand added by the fracturing process itself, and the degree of fracture closure. The sand production in the gas wells immediately leads to a sharp increase in the risk of puncture leakage in the ground pipeline, especially at the pressure drop elbow. Due to the surge in the flow rate of the sand-containing medium in the pipeline after the pressure drop, the erosion force of the medium surges.
[0003] At present, there are mainly two types of pressure drop elbows, most of which are seamless steel pipe right-angle elbows. Since there are no special anti-puncture measures at the front impact point of the right-angle elbow, puncture leakage incidents occur frequently; the other part is conventional anti-puncture leakage three-way elbows. One end of the three-way elbow is an ordinary blind plate, which has a certain anti-puncture leakage buffering capacity. However, with the in-depth application of volume fracturing technology, more and more high-pressure and high-yield gas wells with sand production have been developed, and the erosion force of sand-containing media has increased exponentially. Conventional three-way elbow blind plate puncture leakage incidents also occur frequently.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a technical solution to solve the technical problem that the currently used pressure-reducing elbow is prone to puncture and leak when a large amount of sand is produced in a gas well. Utility Model Content

[0033] Example 1
[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 3 A buffer device for sand-containing media shown in the figure comprises a cavity structure 1, wherein the cavity structure 1 is provided with a buffer cavity, a fluid inlet 2 and a fluid outlet 3, wherein the fluid inlet 2 and the fluid outlet 3 are both communicated with the buffer cavity, and the fluid inlet 2 and the fluid outlet 3 are staggered;
[0035] The buffer cavity is provided with a buffer core 4, and the buffer core 4 is nested in the buffer cavity. The buffer core 4 is used to reduce the velocity of the sand body in the sand-containing medium.
[0036] The sand-containing medium enters the buffer cavity from the fluid inlet 2 and then is discharged from the buffer cavity through the fluid outlet 3. The fluid inlet 2 and the fluid outlet 3 are staggered to change the flow trajectory of the sand-containing medium after entering the buffer cavity. The reverse force of the sand-containing medium impacting the wall of the buffer cavity will decelerate the sand-containing medium entering the buffer cavity, so that the buffer cavity plays a role in buffering the sand body speed in the sand-containing medium. A buffer core 4 is arranged in the buffer cavity. When the sand-containing medium flows in the buffer cavity, it can pass through the buffer core 4. The sand body in the sand-containing medium hits the buffer core 4, so that the buffer core 4 slows down the flow speed of the sand body.

When the sand-containing medium hits the alloy blind plate 9 under the action of inertia, the sand-containing medium will flow in the opposite direction due to the blocking effect of the alloy blind plate 9, so that the sand-containing medium flowing in the opposite direction reduces the flow rate of the sand-containing medium entering from the fluid inlet 2; the alloy blind plate 9 is the main impact position of the sand-containing medium, and the strong anti-erosion ability of the alloy blind plate 9 itself can prevent the buffer device from leaking; the buffer core 4 is cylindrical, and the buffer core 4 is adapted to be connected with the cylindrical space; the through hole 8 allows the operator to maintain the buffer core 4 and the cylindrical space.
[0038] Specifically, the buffer core 4 is a cylindrical frame structure, and the buffer core 4 is composed of a plurality of strip structures 41 and a plurality of annular structures 42. Along the circumference of the buffer core 4, the plurality of strip structures 41 are arranged on the annular structure 42 in an annular manner; along the axial direction of the columnar structure, a plurality of annular structures are arranged at intervals, and the centers of all the annular structures are located on the axis of the buffer core 4; the buffer core 4 is provided with a through buffer channel 43, the fluid inlet 2 and the fluid outlet 3 are both connected to the buffer channel 43, the end of the buffer channel 43 is connected to the fluid inlet 2, a plurality of buffers are arranged in the buffer channel 43, and the buffers are welded to the annular structure.
[0039] Specifically, the buffer is composed of eight first blocking bars 44 forming a "M"-shaped structure, one end of the eight first blocking bars 44 are converged and connected, and the other end is respectively connected to the annular structure, and along the axial direction of the columnar structure, adjacent "M"-shaped structures are spaced apart, and adjacent "M"-shaped structures are staggered; by adjusting the setting angle of the "M"-shaped structure, the gaps between adjacent "M"-shaped structures along the axial direction of the columnar structure are staggered, so that the sand body in the fluid medium can continuously collide with the first blocking bars 44 of different "M"-shaped structures, so that the sand body is continuously decelerated.
[0040] Specifically, the cavity structure 1 is provided with an inlet pipe 5 and an outlet pipe 6, the inlet pipe 5 is adapted to be connected with the fluid inlet 2, and the outlet pipe 6 is adapted to be connected with the fluid outlet 3; the arrangement of the inlet pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 makes it easier to connect the cavity structure 1 in the pipeline; the inlet pipe 5 is flange-connected to the stop valve 7; the stop valve 7 can control the flow velocity and flow rate of the sand-containing medium entering the cylindrical space, so that the sand discharged from the fluid outlet 3 can be decelerated.

The low-pressure and high-flow-rate sand-containing medium enters the lower end pipeline from the fluid outlet 3 after four-stage buffering. The first-stage buffer is a cylindrical space. Due to the large volume of the cylindrical space, the sand-containing medium enters the cylindrical space from the small diameter of the fluid inlet 2. The flow rate of the sand-containing medium can be effectively reduced by changing the diameter, thereby reducing the erosion force of the sand body in the sand-containing medium. The second-stage buffer is a buffer core 4. The sand-containing medium passes through the buffer core 4. By impacting the "M"-shaped structural parts, the erosion force of the sand body is reduced; the third-level buffer is the alloy blind plate 9 buffer, and the medium reduces the erosion force by impacting the alloy blind plate 9, thereby reducing the erosion effect on the downstream pipeline; the fourth-level buffer is a compression buffer. In the cylindrical space, after the sand-containing medium hits the alloy blind plate 9, it will apply a reverse force to the sand-containing medium entering the cylindrical space from the fluid inlet 2, which can effectively reduce the erosion force of the sand body in the medium, and effectively reduce the erosion effect of the sand body on the alloy blind plate 9, thereby effectively reducing the frequency of punctures in the buffer device and the downstream pipeline.
