In a specific implementation manner of the embodiment, in order to improve the efficiency of independently injecting steam into the upper oil layer, a plurality of steam injection pipes 13 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the valve body 1, preferably, the plurality of steam injection pipes 13 are arranged at equal intervals, and the number of the second steam injection ports 513 is the same as that of the steam injection pipes 13, so that after the second inner sleeve 51 moves, each steam injection pipe 13 can uniformly inject steam into the upper oil layer through the second steam injection port 513 to produce oil, thereby improving the oil production efficiency.
In one embodiment of the invention, two ends of the outer sleeve 2 are welded on the valve body 1, the welding mode is simple and reliable, and the sealing performance of the annular space 3 can be effectively ensured.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the reversible steam injection valve further comprises an upper joint 6, the lower part of the upper joint 6 is provided with an external thread, the upper part of the valve body 1 is provided with an internal thread, the valve body 1 is connected with the upper joint 6 through the screwing matching of the external thread and the internal thread, the valve body 1 can be connected with other parts through the upper joint 6, and the inner wall of the upper joint 6 protrudes out of the inner surface of the valve body 1, so that the upper joint 6 can play a role in limiting the upward movement of the first on-off member 4 and the second on-off member 5, and the first on-off member 4 and the second on-off member 5 are prevented from falling off when the reversible steam injection valve is lifted.
The working process of the reversible steam injection valve of the invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the reversible steam injection valve is connected with the pipe column through the upper joint 6, and is lowered into the upper and lower steam injection wells through the pipe column, the lower end of the steam injection channel 11 is communicated with the lower oil layer, the second end of the steam injection pipe 13 is communicated with the upper oil layer, the first inner sleeve 41 is located at the first working position, the second inner sleeve 51 is located at the first steam injection position, because the first inner sleeve 41 blocks the steam injection pipe 13 and the second inner sleeve 51 blocks the steam inlet 12, the steam injected into the steam injection channel 11 can only enter the lower oil layer for oil production through the lower end of the steam injection channel 11, when the lower oil layer is injected with the designed steam amount, the first blocking ball 42 is put into the first axial through hole 411 of the first inner sleeve 41, the first blocking ball 42 is connected with the first axial through hole 411 in a sealing manner, namely, the first blocking ball 42 blocks the first axial through hole 411, and because the outer peripheral surface of the first inner sleeve 41 is in sealing fit with the inner surface of the valve body 1, the first inner sleeve 41 and the first blocking ball 42 block the steam injection channel 11, at this time, as steam is injected into the steam injection channel 11 continuously, the pressure in the steam injection channel 11 positioned at the upper part of the first inner sleeve 41 is increased continuously, when the pressure is increased to the shearing pressure of the first shearing pin 43, the first shearing pin 43 is sheared, the first inner sleeve 41 containing the first blocking ball 42 moves downwards under the action of steam pressure to be abutted against the annular boss, namely, the first on-off member 4 moves from the first working position to the second working position, at this time, the steam injection pipe 13 is communicated with the steam injection channel 11, and as the steam injection channel 11 is blocked by the first on-off member 4, steam cannot be injected to the lower layer normally, and steam can only enter the upper oil layer through the steam injection pipe 13 for oil extraction;
when the pressure of the upper oil layer is difficult to inject, in order to ensure the oil well yield, a second blocking ball 52 is put into the second axial through hole 511 of the second inner sleeve 51, the second blocking ball 52 is connected with the second axial through hole 511 in a sealing manner, that is, the second blocking ball 52 blocks the second axial through hole 511, the outer peripheral surface of the second inner sleeve 51 is in sealing engagement with the inner surface of the valve body 1, so that the second inner sleeve 51 and the second blocking ball 52 also block the steam injection passage 11, steam cannot pass through the second blocking member 5, at this time, the pressure in the steam injection passage 11 positioned above the second inner sleeve 51 is increased continuously due to the continuous injection of steam into the steam injection passage 11, when the pressure is increased to the shearing pressure of the second shearing pin 53, the second shearing pin 53 is sheared, and the second inner sleeve 51 containing the second blocking ball 52 moves downward to abut against the first inner sleeve 41 under the action of steam pressure, that is, the second cut-off member 5 moves from the first steam injection position to the second steam injection position, at this time, the steam injection passage 11 is simultaneously blocked by the first cut-off member 4 and the second cut-off member 5 and cannot inject steam directly to the lower layer, and in the state that the second cut-off member 5 is located at the second steam injection position, the first steam injection port 512 is communicated with the steam inlet 12, and the second steam injection port 513 is communicated with the steam injection pipe 13, so that a part of steam injected into the steam injection passage 11 enters the annular space 3 through the first steam injection port 512 and the steam inlet 12, enters the lower oil layer through the annular space 3, the steam exhaust port 15 and the bottom of the steam injection passage 11 for oil production, and the other part of steam enters the upper oil layer through the second steam injection port 513 and the steam injection pipe 13 for oil production, thereby realizing oil production by injecting steam into the upper and lower oil layers together.
In summary, the reversible steam injection valve provided by the invention realizes independent steam injection to the lower oil layer, independent steam injection to the upper oil layer or simultaneous steam injection to the upper oil layer and the lower oil layer by changing the positions of the first on-off piece and the second on-off piece without increasing the operation cost and the operation difficulty, and when the pressure of the upper oil layer is higher and the steam injection is difficult, the positions of the first on-off piece and the second on-off piece are changed to simultaneously inject the steam into the upper oil layer and the lower oil layer, so that the designed steam injection amount is achieved without influencing the production time rate of an oil well and the crude oil yield of the oil well.
