Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of oil displacement agent injection, in particular to an adjustable injection device for emulsified oil displacement agent in low permeability oil reservoirs. Background Art
[0002] An emulsion flooding agent for low permeability reservoirs is a chemical agent used to improve the recovery rate of low permeability reservoirs. It mainly activates residual oil by forming an emulsion, thereby improving micro-oil washing efficiency and expanding macro-swept volume. The adjustable injection device usually includes a liquid storage tank, injection pump, control system, etc., which is used to control the injection rate and injection volume of the emulsion flooding agent to ensure its uniform distribution and effective effect in the reservoir.
[0003] In existing technologies, emulsion flooding agents may have good fluidity and permeability and can spontaneously diffuse in oil reservoirs. However, depending on the actual conditions of the reservoir, the injection pressure and injection method of the flooding agent may directly affect the oil recovery efficiency. In addition, the adsorption loss of the emulsion flooding agent in the reservoir may affect its oil recovery effect. In particular, when the rock particles in the reservoir are small, the number of pores and pore surface area increase, and the amount of emulsion flooding agent adsorbed by the mineral particles will increase sharply, thereby reducing the oil recovery efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, an adjustable injection device for emulsified oil displacement agent in low permeability oil reservoirs is proposed. Utility Model Content

Multiple balls are clamped on the inner wall of the distributor, and the outer walls of the balls extend into the cavity.
[0012] Preferably, the ball abuts against the connection between the oil-displacing agent outlet and the cavity.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] 1. By adjusting the setting of the injection mechanism, the oil displacement agent enters the cavity from the branch port and then is discharged out of the pipe through the oil displacement agent outlet to achieve the effect of dispersed injection.

[0024] Adjust the injection mechanism to adjust the injection method during the injection of the emulsified oil displacement agent;
[0025] Automatic volume control mechanism, used to automatically close the injection port to accurately control the injection volume;
[0026] The injection adjustment mechanism includes an injection pipe 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the injection pump 4. The bottoms of the storage tank 1, the main control room 2 and the injection pump 4 are all fixedly connected to the surface layer 5. The bottom of the surface layer 5 is fixedly connected to the oil reservoir layer 6. The bottom of the injection pipe 7 is fixedly passed through the surface layer 5 and extends into the oil reservoir layer 6.
[0027] The injection adjustment mechanism also includes a distributor 8 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the injection pipe 7, a cavity 15 is opened at the top of the distributor 8, a valve 14 is also fixedly connected to the outer wall of the injection pipe 7, a branch port 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the valve 14, the inner wall of the branch port 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the injection pipe 7, the valve 14 and the branch port 13 are both located in the cavity 15, and a plurality of oil-displacing agent discharge ports 10 are equidistantly opened in the middle of the distributor 8, and the oil-displacing agent discharge ports 10 are connected to the cavity 15;
[0028] Among them: the valve 14 is electrically connected to the main control room 2, so that the oil-displacing agent enters the cavity 15 from the branch port 13, and then is discharged out of the pipe through the oil-displacing agent outlet 10, achieving the effect of dispersed injection. It can also be directly injected into the bottom single point through the injection pipe 7. The injection pressure and injection method can be adjusted according to the actual situation of the oil reservoir.
[0029] The automatic control mechanism includes a fixed sleeve 9 equidistantly fixedly connected to the outer wall of the middle part of the distributor 8. The fixed sleeve 9 is provided with multiple and its position corresponds to the oil-displacing agent outlet 10. The inner walls of the multiple fixed sleeves 9 are fixedly connected to the return springs 11. The side of the multiple return springs 11 away from the fixed sleeve 9 is fixedly connected to the balls 12.
