Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to emergency rescue equipment for oilfield engineering, and particularly to a flange surface leakage plugging device. Background Art
[0002] During long-term operation, the steel ring connecting the two ends of the flange at the wellhead of the Christmas tree corrodes, resulting in seal failure and leakage of high-pressure liquid in the well. When dealing with the emergency of flange leakage at the oil and gas wellhead, it is crucial to accelerate the emergency rescue operation, control the dangerous situation as early as possible, and reduce losses. Currently, engineering technicians often use tools such as nylon slings, palm ropes, steel wires, clamps, and screw jack plugging to wind and seal or reinforce the leakage part. Although these methods can temporarily control the leakage point in specific situations with small leakage volume and low pressure, they usually involve cumbersome steps and require rescue personnel to approach the potentially dangerous wellhead repeatedly, which not only increases the safety risk of personnel but also makes it difficult to safely, quickly, and effectively control the leakage point of the target flange in the case of large liquid leakage volume and high pressure. In order to improve the safety and efficiency of emergency rescue operations, more advanced emergency rescue technologies and strategies are needed. An ideal solution should be able to quickly plug the leakage point while ensuring the safety of personnel, control the external leakage volume, and establish a kill well channel to lay the foundation for the next kill well operation, thereby minimizing the loss of oil and gas resources and the risk of environmental pollution.

[0023] To better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present utility model, the following further details a flange surface puncture leakage blocking device of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] The fixing device includes a fixed chuck 5 and a movable chuck 3 which are arranged oppositely. One side of the movable chuck 3 away from the fixed chuck 5 is connected to the power device. A drainage pipe 8 is connected to one side of the fixed chuck 5 away from the movable chuck 3. The fastening device is arranged on the frame 2 on the side where the fixed chuck 5 is located. When the movable chuck 3 and the fixed chuck 5 hold the target flange tightly, the fastening device fixedly connects the fixed chuck 5 and the movable chuck 3 to the frame 2.
[0027] Embodiment 2
[0028] As Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a flange surface puncture leakage blocking device of the present utility model includes a connecting frame 10, a frame 2, a fixing device, a power device and a fastening device; the frame 2 is movably connected to the connecting frame 10, and the connecting frame 10 moves horizontally along the frame 2; the fixing device is arranged inside the frame 2;
[0029] The fixing device includes a fixed chuck 5 and a movable chuck 3 which are arranged oppositely. One side of the movable chuck 3 away from the fixed chuck 5 is connected to the power device. A drainage pipe 8 is connected to one side of the fixed chuck 5 away from the movable chuck 3. The fastening device is arranged on the frame 2 on the side where the fixed chuck 5 is located. When the movable chuck 3 and the fixed chuck 5 hold the target flange tightly, the fastening device fixedly connects the fixed chuck 5 and the movable chuck 3 to the frame 2.
[0030] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that:
[0031] As Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a first vertical column and a second vertical column are vertically arranged on the upper surface of the connecting frame 10; a cavity is arranged at the bottom of the frame 2, a cross bar 13 is arranged inside the cavity, the cross bar 13 penetrates through both ends of the first vertical column, the second vertical column and the cavity, and the first vertical column and the second vertical column can move horizontally along the cross bar 13;
[0032] In the cavity, the crossbar portions on both sides of the first column and the second column are sleeved with spring seats 12. When the movable slips 3 and the fixed slips 5 are centered on the target flange, the spring seats 12 can float left and right due to the elastic force, thereby accurately aligning the target flange. When an alignment error occurs between the target flange and the movable slips 3 and the fixed slips 5, the alignment gap can be adjusted in time to achieve alignment and clamping of the target flange, the movable slips 3 and the fixed slips 5, and then a new pressure chamber is formed between the circumferential surface of the target flange and the movable slips 3 and the fixed slips 5.
[0033] The fastening device includes a fastening screw 4 and a bolt 9. The fastening screw 4 is arranged at the upper and lower ends of the frame 2 on the side where the fixed slip 5 is located; the fastening screw 4 sequentially passes through the side wall of the frame 2 on the side where the fixed slip 5 is located and the fixed slip 5, and the corresponding position of the movable slip 3 is provided with a screw hole that cooperates with the fastening screw 4; the fastening screw 4 fixes the fixed slip 5 and the movable slip to the frame 2 through the bolt 9. After the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5 are tightly embraced, the bolt 9 is tightened to fix and lock the movable slip 3, the fixed slip 5 and the frame 2 to each other;
[0034] The drainage pipe 8 is connected to the fixed slip 5 through an extension pipe 6. A stop valve 7 is provided between the extension pipe 6 and the drainage pipe 8. Liquid can flow into the valve body through the extension pipe 6 and then be discharged through the drainage pipe 8. The extension pipe 6 is used to extend the drainage distance of the liquid to prevent liquid splashing and injuring staff; the stop valve 7 is used to control the flow rate of the leaking liquid; the inner sides of the fixed slip 5 and the movable slip 3 are both provided with a sealing gasket 11, which can seal the target flange;
[0035] The power device is a hydraulic cylinder 1, which can move the movable slips 3 through a remote hydraulic control system.
[0036] like Figure 1As shown in the figure, a flange surface leak plugging device of the present utility model has the following working process: The plugging device is connected to the long-arm conveying device through the connecting frame 10 and is operated by a remote control system. The plugging device is moved close to the wellhead, and the centers of the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5 are aligned with the leaking flange surface. The operator operates the hydraulic cylinder 1 to move the movable slip 3 towards the fixed slip 5, so that the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5 clamp the leaking flange. When there is an alignment error between the leaking flange and the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5, the spring seat 12 is used to float left and right to adjust the alignment gap, so that the leaking flange is aligned and clamped with the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5. After that, a new pressure chamber is formed between the circumferential surface of the leaking flange and the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5. When the amount of liquid leaking from the pressure chamber is large, the liquid can be discharged through the drainage pipe 8, ensuring the safety of the operators. After the movable slip 3 and the fixed slip 5 are clamped, the fastening screw 4 is inserted into the corresponding screw hole on the movable slip 3, and then the bolt 9 is tightened to lock the movable slip 3, the fixed slip 5 and the frame 2 to each other, and then the stop valve 7 on the drainage pipe 8 is closed.
