Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical fields of oil and gas field oil production, gas production, well completion stimulation and workover, and particularly relates to a large-diameter retrievable oil and casing operation control valve. Background Technique

[0002] In the conventional workover procedure, after the Christmas tree is removed, the control pipeline of the downhole safety valve / annular gas vent valve is depressurized and in a closed state, and reverse circulation well flushing cannot be achieved and the wire / cable operation diameter is not available before the pipe string is lifted and reconnected to the hydraulic control pipeline to establish pressure.

[0003] For example, if the control pipeline is reconnected before installing the riser and BOP group after removing the Christmas tree, the pressure test of the ram preventer cannot be achieved.

[0004] For example, if the downhole safety valve is opened by establishing pressure through connecting a stop valve at the perforating hole of the downhole safety valve on the tubing hanger before installing the riser and BOP group after removing the Christmas tree, there is a lack of downhole safety valve barrier protection during the installation of the BOP group.

[0005] The conventional Christmas tree backpressure valve is placed inside the tubing hanger, which has one-way blowout prevention, but does not have a wire / cable operation diameter after installation, is not convenient for wire and cable operations, and cannot achieve reverse circulation.

[0015] In the above technical solution, the circulation valve is a tubular valve body structure with a closed tail.

[0016] In the above technical solution, the screen pipe and the positioning and sealing cylinder are sealed with each other through a second sealing ring.

[0017] In the above technical solution, the screen pipe is a tubular structure with a closed tail. The inner diameter of the screen pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the circulation valve, and the screen pipe is provided with screen holes.

[0018] In the above technical solution, the positioning and sealing cylinder and the body structure are sealed with each other through a third sealing ring.
