Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of heavy oil exploitation, and in particular relates to a surface dilution device for a heavy oil well. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of the heavy oil wells adopt centralized dilution. The dilution process is as follows: the mixed dilution oil enters the high-pressure dilution pump of the meter transfer station, and is distributed to each single well by the high-pressure branch line. The amount of dilution oil is controlled by the wellhead high-pressure automatic flow meter valve group to enter the heavy oil well for dilution production. Due to the high viscosity of the oil, low temperature, long pipeline, low pressure, and reduced diameter after anti-corrosion treatment, the back pressure is high during normal production, resulting in frequent well closure and line sweeping, which seriously affects the oil well production and pipeline operation.
