Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil and gas well setting technology, specifically to a special electric hydraulic setting device for oil and gas wells. Background Art
[0002] The specialized electro-hydraulic setting device for oil and gas wells is a piece of equipment used in oil and gas well operations. It is mainly used for sealing operations within the wellbore to prevent oil and gas leakage and uncontrolled well pressure. The bridge plug acts as a sealing layer in oil and gas wells, featuring fewer construction steps, shorter cycle, and accurate sealing position. Its principle is to use a cable or tubing string to deliver it to a predetermined position in the wellbore. Pressure generated by explosive detonation, hydraulic setting, or mechanical setting tools acts on the upper slips, and tension acts on the tension rod. The upper and lower cones apply both pressure and tension to the sealing rubber sleeve. When the tension reaches a certain value, the tension rod breaks, and the setting tool disengages from the bridge plug. At this time, the locking device on the central tube of the bridge plug takes effect, the upper and lower slips break and embed into the inner wall of the casing, and the rubber sleeve expands and seals, completing the setting.
[0003] In existing technologies, the sealing performance of oil and gas well bridge plug setting devices will gradually be affected as the service time increases. Poor sealing performance may lead to gas and liquid leakage in oil and gas wells. Such leakage will not only waste resources, but may also cause serious safety accidents, such as explosions and fires, posing a significant threat to personnel and equipment. When leakage occurs, the production process may need to be forced to stop in order to repair and replace equipment, resulting in extended production time and increased production costs. Leakage in oil and gas wells may also cause serious environmental pollution.
[0004] To address this, a dedicated electric hydraulic setting device for oil and gas wells is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dedicated electro-hydraulic setting device for oil and gas wells to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a special electric hydraulic setting device for oil and gas wells, comprising a rubber cylinder, with cones fixedly connected to the outer walls of both ends of the rubber cylinder, and cone shells fixedly connected to the outer walls of both sides of the cones, with locking sleeves fixedly connected to the side of both sides of the cone shells away from the cones, and several misalignment grooves I evenly formed around the outer walls of both sides of the cone shells, and several misalignment grooves II formed around the outer walls of both sides of the locking sleeves, the misalignment grooves I and II being staggered, and a connector fixedly connected to one end of the opposite side of both sides of the locking sleeves, with threaded sleeves fixedly connected to the end of both sides of the connectors away from the locking sleeves.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0013] 1. By setting up a tightly connected staggered structure for the overall bridge plug seat structure, the overall structure is guaranteed to be tight.

It can withstand higher downhole pressure and impact force, reduce the risk of structural failure, and the staggered structure can effectively absorb and disperse the vibration generated during downhole operations, reduce the impact on the bridge plug, and extend the service life of the equipment.
[0014] 2. The tight overall structure effectively prevents safety accidents such as well blowouts, protecting the safety of operators and equipment. The tightly connected design makes the installation and disassembly of the bridge plug more convenient, reducing operation time, reducing direct contact between corrosive media and the bridge plug, and enhancing its corrosion resistance. The staggered structure can improve the flow characteristics of fluid around the bridge plug, reduce flow resistance, improve oil and gas recovery efficiency, adapt to different types of oil and gas wells and complex downhole environments, and enhance the versatility of the equipment.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 4 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: an electric hydraulic setting device for oil and gas wells, including a rubber cylinder 5. Cones 6 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both ends of the rubber cylinder 5. Conical shells 7 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both sides of the cones 6. Locking sleeves 8 are fixedly connected to the side of both sides of the cone shells 7 away from the cones 6. Several misaligned grooves 14 are evenly opened around the outer walls of both sides of the cone shells 7. Several misaligned grooves 15 are opened around the outer walls of both sides of the locking sleeves 8. The misaligned grooves 14 and 15 are staggered. Connecting heads 9 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of both sides of the locking sleeves 8. Threaded sleeves 10 are fixedly connected to the ends of both sides of the connecting heads 9 away from the locking sleeves 8.
[0023] Wherein: the cone 6 is hollow and matches the shape of the outer wall of the rubber tube 5;
[0024] Even better: During the setting and sealing process of the oil and gas well, by rotating the threaded sleeves 10 on both sides, the connectors 9 on both sides can be tightly fastened to the outer walls of the locking sleeves 8 on both sides. Then, the cones 6 are clamped by the cone shells 7 on both sides. At the same time, with the cooperation of the first misalignment groove 14 and the second misalignment groove 15, the tightness of the fit between the cone shell 7 and the locking sleeve 8 is ensured. The rubber sleeve 5 located in the middle of the cones 6 on both sides expands and plugs into the inside of the tubing, achieving the effect of sealing the tubing.
[0025] An outer sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the threaded sleeve 10, and a snap-fit connector 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the other side of the threaded sleeve 10. A snap-fit block 13 is snapped into the inner wall of the snap-fit connector 12. An inner sleeve 1 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer sleeve 11 and the snap-fit block 13. A limit sleeve 2 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner wall of the inner sleeve 1. An electric hydraulic rod 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limit sleeve 2. A threaded shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the electric hydraulic rod 3 away from the limit sleeve 2.
[0026] Wherein: the fastening block 13 is set in a convex shape and matches the cross-sectional shape of the inner wall of the fastening connector 12;
[0027] Even better: the outer sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the upper threaded sleeve 10 to ensure the sealing of the connection process. After the snap-fit block 13 is inserted into the inside of the snap-fit connector 12, the threaded shaft 4 and the electric hydraulic rod 3 can form a whole, which is convenient for driving extension or retraction during operation, thereby making the setting and sealing treatment of oil and gas wells more perfect.
[0028] The working principle of the above implementation is as follows:
[0029] The operation steps are as follows:
[0030] Firstly, during the setting process of an oil and gas well, rotating the threaded sleeves 10 on both sides allows the connecting heads 9 on both sides to be tightly fastened to the outer walls of the locking sleeves 8 on both sides. Then, the cones 6 are clamped by the cone shells 7 on both sides. Simultaneously, the cooperation of the misalignment grooves 14 and 15 ensures the tightness of the fit between the cone shells 7 and the locking sleeves 8. This tight overall structure effectively prevents well blowouts and other safety accidents, protecting the safety of personnel and equipment. The tightly connected design makes the installation and removal of the bridge plug more convenient, reducing operation time, reducing direct contact between corrosive media and the bridge plug, and enhancing its corrosion resistance. The misaligned structure improves the flow characteristics of fluid around the bridge plug, reduces flow resistance, and increases oil and gas recovery efficiency. It adapts to different types of oil and gas wells and complex downhole environments, enhancing the versatility of the equipment. The tight connection and misaligned design of the overall bridge plug setting structure significantly improves the setting effect of oil and gas wells, ensuring the safety and efficiency of operations. The rubber sleeve 5, located between the two conical sections 6, expands and plugs into the tubing to achieve a sealing effect. The outer sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the upper threaded sleeve 10 to ensure the sealing during the connection process. After the snap-fit block 13 is inserted into the snap-fit connector 12, the threaded shaft 4 and the electric hydraulic rod 3 form a whole, facilitating drive extension or retraction during operation. This further improves the setting and sealing of the oil and gas well. The overall bridge plug setting structure is connected by a tightly connected misaligned structure to ensure the overall structure's tightness. The tightly connected misaligned structure reduces the gap between the bridge plug and the well wall, enhances the sealing effect, prevents oil and gas leakage, ensures stable well pressure, and makes the overall structure more uniformly stressed. It can withstand higher downhole pressure and impact, reducing the risk of structural failure. The misaligned structure can effectively absorb and disperse vibrations generated during downhole operations, reduce the impact on the bridge plug, and extend the service life of the equipment.
