Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of gas production trees, and particularly relates to an efficient sealing structure for a gas production tree. Background Technique

[0002] A gas production tree is an important part of natural gas wellhead equipment, which is used to control and manage the natural gas extracted from underground reservoirs. It usually includes a series of valves, pipelines and other equipment, aiming to ensure the safe and efficient production and processing of natural gas. Sealing performance is an extremely important parameter in the use of gas production trees. The gas production tree exports the gas through the main pipeline and then transports and collects it outward. At the connection of the main pipeline, methods such as adding sealing rings and applying sealant are often used to strengthen the seal. However, some gases are highly corrosive, and after long-term use, their sealing performance will gradually decline until gas leakage occurs. For common gas production trees, their sealing performance is judged by regular inspections and other methods. However, the relevant sealing structures have uncertainties, and there may be situations such as premature leakage between the regular inspection periods, resulting in people not discovering the gas leakage situation in time, which may trigger corresponding safety accidents.

[0003] In summary, ensuring the sealing performance of the gas production tree is important, so it is hoped to propose a new structure to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model
