Definitions

  • This invention relates to a downhole tool and more particularly to a chemical injection tool which is adapted for use in a downhole environment for injecting a chemical into a production tubing of an oil or gas well.
  • chemicals are typically injected into the oil or gas wells in order to control or inhibit a variety of conditions such as corrosion, hydrates, asphaltenes, paraffins, scale and the like.
  • the chemicals are pumped into the well at a controlled rate and may be introduced at selected times or locations within the well.
  • the tools typically comprise a body with an inlet and an outlet, the inlet being connected to a chemical line from which a chemical supply at the surface is controllably injected into the well.
  • the chemical line and any connections between the line and other accessories in the well must be pressure tested.
  • a blind test plug is installed in the inner diameter of the production tubing. Once the tubing has been installed in the well, and the well bore capped with a Christmas tree, the entire chemical injection line, along with any intermediate connections made in the field will be pressure tested to a value greater than the required service pressure in the line.
  • test plug when the test plug is replaced with a chemical injection device with check valves it may not be possible to confirm the integrity of the seal between the device and the corresponding pocket within the chemical injection mandrel if the well is already in communication with the reservoir such as where the well has already been perforated.
  • a rupture disc within the chemical injection mandrel.
  • the disc can be selected to rupture at a pressure greater than the service pressure.
  • This system has a limitation in that the line cannot be tested during any stage of installation to greater than a proportion of the rupture pressure.
  • discs are selected to rupture at the service pressure and the test pressure during the installation phase is usually limited to around 80% of the service pressure.

  • the tool With the plug in a closed position, the tool can be pressure tested up to and even beyond the required operating pressure before the tool is run in hole. Once deployed, with the plug still in the closed position, pressure applied to the plug can be used to check the integrity of any connections between the tool and the chemical lines connected to the tool and also the seals between the tool and the corresponding pocket in the chemical injection mandrel.
  • the plug can be actuated to the open position to allow for flow of fluid between the chemical injection line and the wellbore.
  • the tool comprises an actuating rod which may be integral with or connected to the plug such that a force applied to the actuating rod causes movement of the plug between the closed and open positions.
  • the tool further comprises a piston which is actuable in response to pressure applied thereto.

  • the tool further comprises a non-return valve.
  • the non-return valve functions to prevent fluids from the well entering the tool.
  • a method of testing a downhole chemical injection line in an oil well completion comprising the steps of deploying a tool in accordance with the first aspect of the present invention into the well in the closed position, applying a pressure greater than the operating pressure to the tool, monitoring the pressure within the tool, reducing the pressure to operating values and then subsequently actuating the tool to an open position to allow for injection of chemicals into the well through the tool.

  • the tool Before deployment of the tool into a well, the tool can be subjected to a series of pressure tests in a workshop or on site to apply a test pressure greater than the working or service pressure of the well.
  • the non return valve assembly 57 can be pressure tested prior to assembly into the tool in a dedicated test.
  • a proof pressure test can be carried out via the chemical line connecting port 3 at the upper end (in use) of the tool. Pressure applied via the control line port 10 forces the actuating piston 14 downwards reacting against the actuator return spring. Downward travel of the actuating piston 14 is limited by the proximity of its lower end to the top of the actuating rod. In the illustrated embodiment, this piston stroke has been determined by design to be equivalent to 1 1 ⁇ 2 times the ratchet pitch 20.
  • the pressure required to translate the actuating piston fully downward is a function of control line fluid density, wellbore fluid density, final true vertical depth of the installed tool, piston cross sectional area and actuation return spring stiffness. Once the range of well parameters has been established the piston diameter and spring stiffness shall be sized to yield a suitable actuating pressure.
  • the lateral bypass ports 11 connect the control line port with the a by-pass gallery 22 surrounding the insert main body 21 and then in turn via the set of lower by-pass ports 31 through the insert main body back into the void below the actuating piston.
  • the isolation sleeve 47 straddles these ports when the tool, is in its closed position.
  • the actuating piston 14 will continue to travel downwards compressing the return spring 27 further until the lower face 70 of the actuating piston 14 abuts the upper face of the boss 42 of the actuating rod 41. At this point, the actuating rood can travel no further and pressure in the chamber 17 will increase until the required proof test pressure is reached. This maximum possible piston stroke places the horizontal face 36 of the double collet 34 midway between ratchet 20a and 20b.
  • the tool can then be made up into a sub assembly and internally pressure tested i.e. pressure applied at 4 to the required test pressure for the well design.
  • pressure applied at 4 to the required test pressure for the well design.
  • the non return valve is stung open at the point test pressure is applied against the hollowing seals: 25, 33, 51 and 81. This means that no pressure can be trapped in the tool. Further to this, because there are no burst discs in the system then there is no need to partially disassemble the tool during sub assembly testing.
  • non return valve assembly shall be pressure test prior to assembly into the tool in a dedicated test fixture. Following its installation into the tool it shall be pressure tested from below using a test insert (i.e. un-stung) prior to full assembly of the remaining components.
  • the tool sub assembly will then be shipped to the field and is installed in the completion string for deployment into the well.
  • the chemical injection line will be made up to the mandrel and a pressure test applied equal to or above the required service pressure for the chemical injection line.
  • tubing hanger would be landed in the tree and tree/TH chemical line interface pressure tested. At this juncture the remaining cycles can be carried out.
  • the upper face of the internally projecting stop member 38 within the double collet 34 will abut the underside of the boss 43 of the actuating rod 41 and the horizontal face 36 at the upper end of the double collet 34 will have cooperated with the penultimate ratchet profile 20f on the actuating piston 14. Furthermore, the foot 39 on the lower end of the double collet 34 will have cooperated with ratchet 30f of the insert 31.
  • the foot 39 on the lower end of the double collet (34 will have cooperated with the uppermost ratchet 30g of the insert 31 thus maintaining the isolation spool, independent of the force of the return spring 27, in the upper position therefore maintaining the entire assembly in the open position.
  • Chemicals can now be pumped via the chemical injection line and through the tool into the well unhindered.
  • not return valve can be verified by pressure testing the tubing and monitoring the chemical injection line for returns at surface.
  • the pressure during the tests can be monitored to ensure that no loss of pressure is occurring which would indicate a failure of the tool such as a burst seal.
  • the drop in pressure applied to the actuating piston 14 will cause the actuating piston to retract within the insert 21 thereby completing a further cycle of the tool. If necessary the line can be spliced and retested prior to recommencing run in hole.
  • the embodiment as described is envisaged to fit within a 1 1 ⁇ 2 inch diameter pocket in the mandrel. It is envisaged that the mandrel would be deployed complete with the internal components made up directly to the tubing string as described above. Alternatively however the components of the tool could be packaged to be run or pulled on a wireline kickover tool or into the pocket of a conventional side pocket mandrel. This would allow the tool to be run pre installed in an existing side pocket mandrel to provide a safety override feature should the device fail to open or be opened prematurely.
