Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sacrificial anodes, in particular to a sacrificial anode protection device applied to oil wells. Background Art

[0002] The sacrificial anode is an electrochemical protection method. Its basic principle is to use a metal or alloy with a more negative potential than the protected metal as the anode, which is connected to the protected metal to form a primary battery. In this process, the sacrificial anode (a metal with strong reducing properties) acts as the negative electrode to undergo oxidation reaction and is consumed, while the protected metal acts as the positive electrode to avoid corrosion.

[0003] However, due to the influence of soil resistivity, the reaction between the inner wall of the oil well pipeline and the sacrificial anode is not stable enough, and the sacrificial anode cannot ensure stable contact with the inner wall of the pipeline during consumption, resulting in unstable protection effect.

[0004] In addition, oil wells generally operate in a deep underground environment with poor heat dissipation, and the anode materials currently used are prone to electrode reversal in high-temperature environments, which in turn accelerates the corrosion of the inner wall of the pipeline. Utility Model Content

[0008] The above-mentioned sacrificial anode protection device applied to oil wells, the conductive component includes a conductive sleeve connected to the anode material, a conductive rod is slidably arranged inside the conductive sleeve, and a spring is arranged between the conductive rod and the inner wall of the conductive sleeve.

[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0020] The sacrificial anode assembly 2 includes two semi-cylindrical anode materials 5, such as Figure 3As shown, a filler layer 7 and a heat-insulating protective layer 8 are sequentially arranged on the outer side of the anode material 5 cylinder wall.

[0021] The filler layer 7 is filled with a mixture of gypsum powder, bentonite and process sodium sulfate, which can provide a uniform resistivity for the sacrificial anode assembly 2 to determine the protective effect of the anode material.

[0022] The thermal insulation layer 8 is made of corrosion-resistant thermal insulation material, which can ensure that the anode material is less affected by temperature, avoid the electrical reversal of the anode material due to excessive temperature, and prevent the anode material from being exposed to the outside and causing the anode material to be consumed too quickly.

[0023] The snap connector 3 includes two snap rings 12 arranged symmetrically on both sides. Figure 4 As shown, a buckle groove 13 is provided at one end of the connecting portion of the two snap rings 12, and a clamping block 14 is provided at the other end of the snap ring 12 to be clamped with the buckle groove 13 on the other snap ring 12, and the clamping block 14 and the buckle groove 13 are connected by a connecting column 15.

[0024] The conductive component 4 includes a conductive sleeve 9 connected to the anode material 5, and a conductive rod 10 is slidably arranged inside the conductive sleeve 9. A spring 11 is arranged between the conductive rod 10 and the inner wall of the conductive sleeve 9, which can extend the contact time between the conductive rod 10 and the inner wall of the pipeline, so that the anode material 5 and the inner wall of the pipeline are connected through the electrochemical principle to form a circuit relationship during the operation of the oil well, thereby protecting the inner wall of the pipeline from corrosion.

[0025] The conductive rod 10 and the conductive sleeve 9 are both made of ceramic material, which can provide a certain degree of heat insulation while conducting electricity, thereby preventing heat from being transferred to the anode material.

[0026] When in use, first, a layer of insulating cloth 6 is sheathed on the outer wall of the carbon steel short section 1, then the two anode materials are sheathed on the outside of the insulating cloth 6, and the filler layer 7 and the thermal insulation protective layer 8 are laid in sequence to complete the assembly of the sacrificial anode assembly. Finally, the two ends of the sacrificial anode assembly can be fixed by the snap connector 3.

At the same time, by arranging an elastically adjustable conductive component in contact with the inner wall of the pipeline, the stability of the electrochemical connection between the sacrificial anode and the inner wall of the pipeline is ensured, thereby improving the protective effect of the anode material.
