EMBODIMENTS
Hereinafter structure principle and operating principle of the invention are specifically described with reference to the accompanying drawings:
Referring to FIG. 1, which is a structure diagram of one embodiment according to the invention. The composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device of the invention comprises a composite water-controlling screen pipe, comprising: a base pipe 1; a selfadaptive internai flow control device 3 mounted on the base pipe 1 for a single circulation channel for fluids inside and outside the base pipe 1, and based on the principle of constancy of a sum of fluid dynamic pressure and local pressure loss in Bernoulli équation, controlling an opening degree of a buoy within a valve body according to the change in viscosity of different fluids flowing through the valve body to control an opening degree of the circulation channel so as to automatically limit flow; a flow control device 4 mounted on the base pipe 1 and adjacent to the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 for controlling an overflow of the base pipe 1; and a screen pipe coaxially and threadedly connected to the base pipe 1, 4 wherein an inner diameter of the screen pipe is the same as that of the base pipe 1. The screen pipe comprises: a body 8; and a filter sleeve 5 comprising an outer protective jacket, a filter jacket and an inner protective jacket fitted sequentially, the fdter jacket comprising a plurality of fdter screens stacked successively, wherein hole sizes of the fdter screens are set depending on requirement for oil réservoir. The inner protective jacket, the outer protective jacket and the fdter screen are ad made of acid-proof and antisepticise materials such as SS304, SS316, or higher level. Both ends of the fdter sleeve 5 are respectively welded to the flow control device 4 and a positioning step of the body 8, and fluid flowing through the fdter screen flows into the base pipe 1 via the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 after passing through the flow control device 4. The filter sleeve 5 is fixed onto the body 8 via a support dise 6. One end of the body 8 is further mounted with a collar 7.
Referring to FIG. 2, which is a partial enlarged diagram of the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 and the flow control device 4 in one embodiment of the invention. The self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is preferably in a float-type structure, and Controls the opening degree of the buoy according to the change in viscosity of various fluids so as to limit flow automatically. The self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is preferably made of tungsten Carbide hard alloy, and has the advantages of heat résistance, pressure résistance and corrosion prévention. The flow control device 4 comprises: a support diversion dise 41 opened with an overflow groove 43 and a diversion pipe 44; a rotatable balance dise 42 connected to the support diversion dise 41, and provided with a throttle hole 45 to cooperate with the overflow groove 43 and the diversion pipe 44, the balance dise 42 rotated as needed before operation to regulate the number of plugged holes of the throttle hole 45 to control the overflow of the base pipe 1, and locked with a lock nut. The throttle hole 45 is preferably mounted with a tungsten alloy nozzle.
The base pipe 1 and the body 8 of the screen pipe are threadedly connected. During assembly, the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is fîrstly assembled, and the flow control device 4, the self-adaptive internai flow control device and the lock nut 2 are assembled sequentially from one end, then the support dise 6 and the filter sleeve 5 are assembled on the body 8 of the screen pipe, and next, the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is threadedly connected to the screen pipe. The base pipe 1 of the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is provided with a male thread, which functions to connect upper and lower pipe columns together with the collar 7, and the support dise 6 fünctions to fix the filter sleeve 5. The fluid carrying sand fïlters the sand outside the screen pipe aller fdtering of the filter sleeve 5, the fluid without sand flows through the flow control device 4 for overflow limitation, and then the fluid passes through the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 for overflow limitation, enters into the body 8 of the device and rises to a mouth of the well along with the pipe columns.
Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the single composite water-controlling screen pipe can only limit inflow of the fluid, and only if the entire pipe string is designed after stratigraphie analysis, the inflow profile can be balanced. Oil and water profile of the stratum and information of permeability, pressure and water holding of each section are obtained by performing physical property analysis on the stratum of pitshaft, and then the number of flow channels of the flow control device 4 are set according to data to control inflow of the fluid, regulate the oil and water profile, and prevent partial coning of bottom water or edge water, which are to balance the inflow profile by the way of controlling fluid flow during early period (see FIG. 3). During middle and late period, since partial well section may hâve water breakthrough, it is also difficult for the flow control device 4 to take effect, and at this time, the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is tumed on or off according to fluid properties. After water breakthrough, the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 is tumed off, such that oil recovery of other layer can be enhanced.
The water-controlling principle of the invention fully reflects the life cycle design conception, and the water-controlling and oil-increasing functions thereof are effective during 6 the entire production period of an oil well. According to characteristics of the invention, the water-controlling mechanism of the device combining with the production period of the oil well can be divided into two water-controlling stages. The first water-controlling stage is early production of the oil well. The number of hole plates on the flow control device 4 is designed with numerical simulation software according to actual data of oil and gas réservoir, and differential pressure of production of each section is reasonably controlled to maintain balance of oil and water interface, prevent earlier water breakthrough, delay coning of edge water and bottom water, and achieve the object of earlier liquid control while remedying the deficiency of incapability of controlling liquid of the self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 during the early period. The second water-controlling stage is middle and late production of the oil well. Different production sections of the oil well hâve different water holding degrees, and the float-type self-adaptive internai flow control device 3 can change the opening degree of the buoy according to different water holding degrees (i.e., comprehensive viscosities of fluids) of the production segments, thereby achieving automatic water-controlling throttle effect.
Of course, the invention may further hâve several other embodiments, and those skilled in the art shall make various corresponding modifications and variations according to the invention without departing from spirit and essence of the invention, but these corresponding modifications and variations shall belong to the extent of protection of the appended daims of the invention.
Industrial Applicability
As compared to the water-controlling screen pipe of the conventional water-controlling and flow-limiting device, the composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device of the invention has a strong effect of limiting flow during the early period, and can suppress water automatically according to the change in viscosity of the fluid during the middle and late period, and the water-controlling and oil-increasing functions thereof are effective during the entire production period of the oil well.
A filtering portion of the composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device uses the form of an intégral sleeve, and has the characteristics of good permeability, high strength, strong non-deformability, and good corrosion prévention.
A step of the filtering portion of the composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device is tightly connected to the base pipe using a hexagon boit, and then using surface welding. Such spécifie process can effectively prevent slippage between the base pipe and the filter medium that may be caused when going down to the well while ensuring concentricity of the whole screen pipe, and improving strength of the screen pipe and safety of entry. The inner protective sleeve uses a bridge structure to hâve an annular discharge area, changes oil flowing channel, prevents sand déposition of the filter medium, and solves blocking of the screen pipe. Moreover, the filter medium is made in a form of sleeve, and directly fitted on the base pipe and fixed onto the step, and an annular space is left between the sleeve and the base pipe, so that the screen pipe forms pipe flow during perméation, which greatly enhances pénétration capacity of the screen pipe and oil recovery of the oil well.
The composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device has a unique float-type selfadaptive internai flow control device, which can automatically limit flow of the fluid according to the change in viscosity of the fluid.
The core component of the composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device is made of tungsten alloy, and has the advantages of heat résistance, pressure résistance and corrosion prévention. In particular, the speed-limiting device is hardened by spécial process, which can prevent sand shock and corrosion of the fluid, and has a long life.
The composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device has a good adaptability to the horizontal well, is convenient in installation, and has simple programs.
The composite water-controlling and flow-limiting device is advanced in process, and strongly targeted. The number of throttle holes on the flow control device is designed with numerical simulation software according to actual data of oil and gas réservoir, and differential pressure of production of each section is reasonably controlled to maintain balance 5 of oil and water interface, prevent earlier water breakthrough, delay coning of edge water and bottom water, and achieve the object of earlier liquid control. During the middle and late period, the float-type self-adaptive internai flow control device can suppress water automatically according to the change in viscosity of the fluid.
