Definitions

  • This disclosure relates in general to electrical submersible pumps (ESP) for wells and in particular to clamps for a bladder of a pressure equalizer.
  • ESP electrical submersible pumps
  • An ESP normally includes a motor, a pump, and a pressure equalizer or seal section that reduces a pressure differential between well fluid on the exterior and dielectric lubricant in the motor interior.
  • a typical seal section has a bladder with an interior in fluid communication with the motor lubricant.
  • the bladder may be an elastomeric bag or a metal bellows. ETsually, the seal section connects between the motor and the pump.
  • the bladder has open upper and lower ends.
  • a guide tube extends through the open ends and secures to guides or connectors on the upper and lower ends of the seal section.
  • a drive shaft sealed at the upper connector from well fluid locates within the guide tube.
  • the drive shaft seal is usually a mechanical face seal, which allows slight leakage of well fluid into the upper connector.
  • a well fluid port in the upper connector admits well fluid into the housing exterior of the bladder to exert a pressure force against motor lubricant in the interior of the bladder. It is important to minimize well fluid leakage into the interior of the bladder because it could migrate down to the motor.
  • clamps secure the bladder ends to adapter portions of the connectors.
  • the clamps are basically hose clamps that are tightened manually to exert forces on the bladder ends against the adapters. A technician mechanically locks each clamp to maintain a pre-load force on the bladder ends.
  • bladder ends develop leaks because of an insufficient clamping force during the initial assembly.
  • the insufficient clamping force can be due to deficiencies in the mechanical retention mechanism. It can also be due to an inherent discontinuity in the clamp need to allow for slippage so that a changed in diameter can be applied.
  • the discontinuity creates an area of lower or higher pressure that can lead to leaks or tears.
  • an operator may shut down an installed ESP, causing the ESP to cool until re-started again.
  • the different expansion and contraction of the materials during thermal cycling can create forces that exceed the material properties of the clamps, causing the clamps to loosen.
  • An electrical submersible pump assembly has a seal section housing for coupling between a motor and a pump of the assembly.
  • the housing has a longitudinal axis and first and second adapters axially spaced apart and extending toward each other from first and second ends of the housing, respectively.
  • Each of the first and second adapters has an outward facing annular wall relative to the axis.
  • a bladder has first and second openings on first and second ends, respectively, that insert over the first and second adapters, respectively.
  • a first clamp ring has an expanded condition that enables the first clamp ring to be inserted over the first opening and the first opening to be inserted over the annular wall of the first adapter.
  • the first clamp ring has a contracted condition that tightly secures the first opening to the annular wall of the first adapter.
  • the first clamp ring is formed of a shape memory alloy that causes movement from the expanded condition to the contracted condition in response to heating the first clamp ring to a selected elevated temperature.
  • the selected elevated temperature required to cause the first clamp ring to move from the expanded condition toward the contracted condition is at least 50 degrees C and may be in a range from 50 degrees C. to 165 degrees C.
  • the first clamp ring is movable from the contracted condition back to the expanded condition in response to chilling the first clamp ring to a selected low temperature.
  • the first clamp ring remains in the expanded condition after being warmed from the selected low temperature to a room temperature.
  • the selected low temperature may be between minus 55 degrees C and minus 120 degrees C.
  • the first clamp ring may a solid annular member with a weld that welds opposite ends of the first clamp ring together.
  • the shape memory alloy causes the first clamp ring to remain in the contracted condition after reaching the selected elevated temperature until the first clamp ring is chilled to at least minus 55 degrees C.
  • the first clamp ring has an inner diameter that can be contracted only by heating to the selected elevated temperature.
  • the first clamp ring has a round configuration.
  • a second clamp ring may extend around the second opening.
  • the second clamp ring has an expanded condition that enables the second clamp ring to be inserted over the second opening during assembly.

  • Guide tube 45 has a larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of drive shaft 31, defining an inner annulus.
  • Guide tube ports 47 in guide tube 45 near its upper end communicate the inner annulus with the interior of bladder 35.
  • Motor lubricant from motor 17 communicates with the inner annulus between guide tube 45 and drive shaft 31.
  • the motor lubricant communicates with the interior of bladder 35 via guide tube ports 47.

  • Upper clamp ring 51 may be formed by bending a strip of metal into a circular shape and welding the two ends together with a weld 55, as shown.
  • Weld 55 may be a butt weld ground smooth and heat treated. Weld 55 will have the same metallurgy as the remaining portions of upper clamp ring 51.
  • upper clamp ring 51 may be formed from a drawn seamless tube.
  • the material of upper clamp ring 51 is a shape memory (“SMA”) alloy.

  • the inner diameter of upper clamp ring 51 is less than the initial outer diameter of upper opening 37.
  • the inner diameter while in the contracted condition is selected to exert a desired level of a radially inward directed compressive force on bladder upper opening 37, sealing it to upper adapter 39.
  • upper clamp ring 51 After reaching the contracted condition, upper clamp ring 51 will precisely hold its contracted inner diameter stable even if the temperature is subsequently lowered or increased from the selected high temperature during well pumping operations. Upper clamp ring 51 will hold the contracted position once achieved because of a metallurgical phase change that occurs while heating upper clamp ring 51 when it is in the expanded condition to the selected elevated temperature.
  • the SMA material of upper clamp ring 51 may have the ability to undergo an expansion from its contracted condition back to its expanded condition if a sufficiently cold temperature is applied to upper clamp ring 51.
  • upper clamp ring 51 will undergo another phase change at a selected low temperature, causing upper clamp ring 51 to expand back to and retain its expanded condition.
  • the low temperature phase change causes upper clamp ring 51 to retain the expanded condition after the low temperature is removed.
  • Upper clamp ring 51 will hold the expanded condition until reheated to the selected high temperature.
  • the selected low temperature is far below any temperature that upper clamp ring 51 would normally experience while ESP 11 is operating or while ESP 11 is out of a well, even in artic regions. Allowing a return of upper clamp ring 51 from the contracted position to the expanded position allows a technician to remove upper clamp ring 51 from bladder upper opening 37 to dissemble seal section 19 after ESP 11 has been pulled from a well. The technician may then reuse upper clamp ring 51 with a new bladder 35.
  • One suitable SMA alloy that will achieve and hold the expanded and contracted conditions includes 30% Titanium, 48% nickel, and 14% Niobium. This material will undergo a complete phase change to place upper clamp ring 51 in the contracted condition when heated from room temperature to about 165 degrees C. This material will undergo another phase change to return upper clamp ring 51 from the contracted condition to the expanded condition when chilled from room temperature to about minus 120 degrees C.

Once the phase has fully changed at 165 degrees C., upper clamp ring 51 will remain in the contracted condition even if ESP 11 operational temperatures are higher and lower. In some wells during operation of ESP 11, upper clamp ring 51 could reach

Abstract

L'invention concerne un ensemble pompe submersible électrique (11) qui comporte un logement de section d'étanchéité (25) destiné à l'accouplement entre un moteur (17) et une pompe (13) de l'ensemble. Une vessie (35) comporte une ouverture (37) dimensionnée pour coulisser sur un adaptateur (39) dans le logement de section d'étanchéité. Une bague de serrage (51) est formée d'un alliage à mémoire de forme sélectionné pour créer un diamètre interne d'état dilaté lorsqu'il est à une température ambiante, permettant à la bague de serrage d'être insérée sur l'ouverture de vessie pendant l'assemblage. Lorsqu'elle est chauffée à une température élevée sélectionnée, la bague de serrage se contracte et fixe étroitement l'ouverture autour de l'adaptateur. L'alliage à mémoire de forme de la bague de serrage amène également le diamètre interne de l'état contracté à se dilater lorsqu'il est refroidi à une basse température sélectionnée.
