Background
The liquid output of a single well is basic data of oil field development and is an important basis for development scheme design and ground engineering construction. Along with the rolling development of oil fields, the oil well metering difficulty is higher and higher, and the requirements of fine analysis of production and cost reduction and efficiency improvement are increased on the single well metering technology. The traditional metering mode can not meet the production requirements of large variation of liquid production amount and gas production rate of each single well in the production process of the oil field, and the requirement of accurate metering is difficult to realize in a wider metering range.
In the prior art, single-well metering methods used in oil fields mainly comprise glass tube oil measurement, single-well overhead tank oil measurement, tipping bucket oil measurement, a liquid level recovery method, a diagram method and the like, but the respective technical principles are more or less influenced by certain factors and conditions, so that the metering precision of oil products cannot be guaranteed, and the problem of accurately metering thick oil is difficult to effectively solve. The oil measurement of the glass tube is difficult to carry out due to the low oil-gas ratio and the low gas production rate of the thickened oil and the difficult hydraulic surface pressing.

When the liquid level recovery method and the indicator diagram method are used for measuring oil, a large amount of oil well production data are needed, the working condition of an oil well is in a constantly changing state, and the measuring error is large due to the fact that the factors influenced by underground working conditions are many.
Therefore, a technical scheme capable of improving the single-well metering precision is urgently needed in the industry.

The oil field individual well metering device in one embodiment of the application can also be provided with a gas metering device, the gas metering device can be connected with the metering tank 10, and after liquid produced from an oil field flows into the metering tank 10, along with the rising of the liquid level of the liquid in the metering tank 10, under the action of gravity and pressure, the liquid in the metering tank 10 can separate out gas such as natural gas. The evolved gas passes through a gas metering device connected to the metering tank 10, which meters out the volume and/or mass of gas flowing through. In order to avoid that gas in the energy storage tank 6 may flow into the gas metering device, a valve may be arranged between the energy storage tank 6 and the metering tank 10, which valve is closed during the metering process and opened again when liquid needs to be discharged. Meanwhile, a valve can be arranged at the joint of the gas metering device and the metering tank 10, and the valve of the gas metering device is closed during liquid discharge, so that the gas in the energy storage tank 6 is prevented from flowing into the gas metering device.

The metering tank 10 can be further provided with a communication pipeline 17, and two ports of the communication pipeline 17 are respectively connected with the liquid storage space and the weighing space of the metering tank 10. Therefore, the inaccurate result of the weight of the liquid metered by the weighing device 9 caused by the difference of the gas pressure in the liquid storage space and the gas pressure in the weighing space can be avoided, and the accuracy of the metering result of the oil field single well metering device is improved.

During the upward movement of the piston 8, the adhered matters on the inner wall of the measuring tank 10 can be cleaned and discharged with the cleaning liquid. The communicating valve 11 in the communicating pipeline 17 can be closed in the tank cleaning process, so that the cleaning liquid is prevented from flowing into the communicating pipeline. After the tank cleaning is finished, the cleaning pump 13 may be turned off, the piston 8 may move downward under the action of gravity and the gas pressure in the energy storage tank 6, so as to discharge the cleaning liquid in the measuring tank 10 and the attachments on the inner wall of the measuring tank 10 from the waste liquid collecting pipe 18, or discharge the cleaning liquid and the attachments into the pipe of the cleaning device, and the specific cleaning method may refer to the description of the above embodiment. After the tank cleaning is finished, the piston 8 is restored to the metering state, and the inlet valve 1 can be opened to carry out the next metering work.
In one embodiment of the present application, a gas metering method is further provided, in which a gas metering device may be provided in an oilfield single well metering device, the gas metering device includes a constant pressure valve 2 and a gas flowmeter 3, which are sequentially arranged along a gas flow direction.
When liquid flowing into the metering tank 10 gradually separates out gas under the action of gravity and air pressure, the pressure of the separated gas is increased, so that the pressure difference between the two ends of the constant pressure valve 2 reaches a preset pressure value, and the constant pressure valve 2 is opened. Gas separated out from liquid in the metering tank 10 flows to the gas flowmeter 3 through the constant pressure valve 2, and the gas flowmeter 3 measures and records the volume and/or the mass of the flowing gas to finish the measurement work of the oil field single well gas.

the change in weight Δ G and the change in volume Δ V of the liquid in the metering tank 10 at T1 during the metering cycle can be measured. The production data for the metering cycle T1 can be calculated from the changes in volume and weight of the liquid in the metering tank 10 over the metering cycle. Yield data of T2, T3, Tn and Tn were obtained in this order for one day. If the metering cycle is set to 1 hour, 24 stage production data can be obtained throughout the day, and the average daily production data is calculated for 24 groups of data. Likewise, the metering period can be measured; the volume and/or mass of gas evolved in the liquid, the daily average production of gas per well is obtained.
The time t1 required by the full liquid level in the metering tank, the weight change G1 and the volume change V1 can be measured, the yield data in the metering period t1 can be obtained through calculation, and the yield data of all the metering periods formed in 24 hours are calculated in an average mode to obtain the average daily yield data. The average daily output data may include daily fluid production, daily oil production, moisture content, and the like. The water content can be calculated according to the volume and the weight of the liquid which is measured, the density of the crude oil and the density of the water of the oil well are relatively stable parameters, and the volume and the mass of the water in the liquid which is extracted from the oil field can be calculated by combining the density of the crude oil and the density of the water, so that the water content of the liquid which is extracted from the oil field can be obtained.
