Definitions
- the present invention relates to an installation for pumping a two-phase liquid / gas effluent and, more particularly to such an installation intended for pumping hydrocarbons from an oil well.
- the natural flow of hydrocarbons from the bottom to the surface is insufficient to allow or maintain commercial production. This is due either to the viscosity and the weight of the effluents, or to a too low natural pressure at the bottom of the well, compared to the factors which oppose their elevation towards the surface.
- an artificial effluent lifting system, or activation system of the well For example, one can mount a pump at the lower end of a production tube located in the well, or one can provide a gas injection installation at the bottom of the well. This last type of installation, more commonly called "gas lift", is used to lighten the hydrocarbon column located in the well in order to facilitate its ascent to the surface.
- a gas injection installation at the bottom of a well is generally reliable, but has the drawback of requiring, on an isolated site, a source of gas under pressure, for example a compressor and its associated piping.
- this separation of gas upstream of the pump requires a gas discharge channel different from that taken by the liquid passing through the pump.
- a common way of ensuring this function is to allow the gas to “ventilate” - that is to say to travel - through the annular space which exists between the internal wall of the casing of the well and the external wall of the casing which serves to flow of the pumped liquid.
- this method has several major drawbacks which have the consequence of making the operation of the well more expensive or even dangerous: in particular the loss of natural elevation energy; chemical and / or mechanical attack on materials in contact with the gas; and significant and uncontrollable heat exchanges between the effluents and the periphery of the well, which can cause costly flow problems.
- document FR-A-2,723,143 describes an installation for an oil well comprising a pump disposed at the lower end of a first casing, a second casing being intended to receive gas, where appropriate. derived from 1 effluent and separated upstream of the pump, and to lead it to the surface independently of the liquid phase
- the pump is provided with a shirt, which stretches to a level below the era petroleum rock layer.
- the present invention therefore has for its object an installation for pumping a two-phase liquid / gas effluent which is simple, robust and reliable in construction and which is not subject to the drawbacks mentioned above.
- the present invention provides a pumping installation intended to be mounted in a well extending from the surface to a layer of petroleum rock, comprising a casing at the lower end of which is mounted a pump, a joint, mounted in the well around the casing and delimiting a chamber at the lower end of the well, in which the pump is arranged, characterized in that the installation further comprises a hydro-ejector in the casing comprising a zone depression opening in the upper end of the chamber.
- FIG. 1 is a view in longitudinal section of an installation according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 2a and 2c are schematic views of three operating modes of one invention.
- an oil well 10 extends between the surface (not shown) and a layer of oil rock 12.
- the well is provided with perforations 14, opening in the oil rock, which allow the flow of the hydrocarbon effluent towards the interior of the well 10.
- the well 10 includes a casing 16 which makes it tight with respect to the rock layers traversed by the well.
- a casing 18 extends between the surface and a point located a few meters above the layer of rock 12.
- the casing 18 comprises at its lower end a pump 20 provided with inlets 22 for the effluent to be sent to the surface.
- the pump 20 is centrifugal rotary and its motor is supplied from the surface by an electric cable (not shown).
- the pump 20 may advantageously include a special baffle or dynamic separator of the centrifugal or vortex type in order to better guarantee the separation upstream of the pump (not shown.
- the packer 28 defines an annular chamber 33 delimited by the internal wall of the casing 16 and the external wall of the casing 18 between the seal 28 and the surface.
- the packer 28 prohibits effluents and in particular gas from entering the chamber 33. They can only cross the upper part of the well by borrowing the casing 18.
- the chamber 33 and all the accessories it contains such as the cable power supply to the pump 20 are therefore protected from mechanical and chemical attack and remains available for other functions such as for example the reception of a heat-insulating substance in order to ensure the thermal insulation of the casing 18.
- the casing 18 comprises a liquid-gas hydro-ejector 32, or venturi, intended to create in its interior a vacuum zone 34 by venturi effect.
- the liquid-gas hydro-ejector 32 has orifices 36 connecting the vacuum zone 34 and the gas pocket 30.
- the pump 20 When starting the pumping installation described above, the pump 20 is set in motion, sucking liquid effluent through the inlets 22 and discharging it, in the direction of the arrow 38, towards the ace.
- the passage of the effluent through the liquid-gas hydro-ejector 32 creates a depression in its interior due to its converging geometry, depression which causes the suction through the orifices 36 of the gas from the gas pocket 30 in the direction of the arrows 40.
- the gas In the interior of the hydro-ejector, the gas is then entrained by the liquid effluent coming from the pump 20 to which it mixes and re-combines, thus reducing the column of effluent contained in the casing 18, thus facilitating its ascent to the surface.
- FIG. 2a schematically represents the normal configuration of the flows, corresponding to that described above with reference to FIG. 1.
- the operating modes of the invention represented in FIGS. 2B and 2C include additional characteristics allowing the installation of react better in transient or transient degraded situations, and make it more efficient and effective.
- FIG. 2A shows, schematically, the characteristics of the installation of FIG. 1.
- the mixture of the recombined liquid with the gas is sent to the surface by the casing 18 in the direction of the arrow 50.
- FIG. 2B schematically represents the situation where, in an installation according to the invention, the pump 20 sucks effluent having a high proportion of gas or contains large bubbles of gas in its impellers.
- Centrifugal pumps do not tolerate gas bubbles which are not suitable for discharging such effluents. It is therefore advisable to facilitate the evacuation of these bubbles towards the outlet of the pump before continuing to send the effluent to the surface.
- the presence of large gas bubbles in the interior of the pump 20 can occur despite the separation of the gas upstream before the entry of the fluids into the pump 20, due for example to a degassing complementary to inside the pump 20, or else during a transient operating phase such as restarting the installation.
- the invention proposes to relieve the backflow of the pump 20 with, on the one hand, a check valve return 52 in the casing 18 between the pump 20 and the hydro-ejector 32 for prohibit the return of effluents to the pump 20 and support the weight of the hydrostatic column, and, on the other hand, a lateral opening 54 located under this valve and allowing the lateral evacuation of the effluents consisting essentially of gas towards the annular chamber 31
- This valve 52 and the lateral opening 54 are preferably systems which can be put in place and removed from the cable well by an operation commonly called "ire-line" in order to make their maintenance inexpensive.
- lateral opening 54 must close as soon as a certain flow rate of liquid effluent and a higher pressure are again reached when the pump 20 is discharged.
- the operation of this lateral opening 54 can be either controlled from the surface to using an electric or hydraulic control line according to parameters available on the surface, or else being automatically controlled locally with for example the discharge pressure of the pump 20, there is the pressure difference due to the friction of the effluent between the inlet and the outlet of the lateral opening 54.
- This principle is used in safety valves called “storm-choke”.
- FIG. 2C schematically represents an installation intended to alleviate the problems which may arise when the level 24 of the liquid exceeds that of the hydro-ejector 32.
- the first is based on the fact that the hydro-ejector 32 is more or less able to make this selection naturally by “hydraulic blocking”. This is the phenomenon that plays when, in liquid-liquid jet-pumping, the jet does a "gas-lock", that is to say, no longer manages to entrain liquid. This condition is obtained for a sufficiently high entraining liquid flow rate.
- the second consists in using a float intended to block the lateral gas inlet of the hydro-ejector 32 when liquid from the chamber 31 raises it.
- this float would be a system which could be drawn up by cable and which could, for example, be installed in a “side-pocket”, through which all the gas from the pocket 30 before entering the hydro-ejector 32.
- the third, also recovered by cable, would be the equivalent of the float but with a different technology, for example, flapping or other "storm choke” closing the passage of liquids.
- liquid-gas hydro-ejector 32 and the accessories corresponding to the functions shown in FIGS. 2B and 2C as well as the movable element of the pump are advantageously arranged in order to allow their ascent to the surface by cable during maintenance interventions. impose themselves.
- the liquid-gas hydro-ejector can be mounted in the casing at a point above the joint, the vacuum zone communicating with the chamber by a conduit which crosses the joint.
