Problems solved by technology

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a multi-stage separator for downhole liquid sand, which can solve the problem that the existing oil-water separator blocks the liquid inlet hole due to sedimentation and sand deposition, and then makes the separator unable to work normally.

Embodiment Construction

[0014] Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention will be further described:

[0015] Depend on figure 1 combine figure 2 , 3 Shown: the downhole fluid-sand multi-stage separator of the present invention comprises a center pipe 1 and several settling cups 2 equidistantly sleeved on the center pipe 1, there are gaps between adjacent settling cups 2, and the settling cups 2 include The cup body 4 and the cup holder 5, wherein the bottom surface of the cup body 4 is polygonal, and the angle α between the outer convex edge of the polygonal surface and the horizontal line is 30°~60°, and the edge surfaces and ridge lines can make the oil droplets collide Merge and aggregate to form larger diameter oil droplets; the center pipe 1 corresponding to the annular space between the cup body 4 of the settling cup 2 and the center pipe 1 has a group of equal-diameter liquid inlet holes 3 .

[0016] The upper edge of the settling cup 2 below is a zigzag shape m...

Abstract

The invention discloses a multiple-stage underground liquid-sand separator, which solves the problem of an existing oil-water separator that a liquid inlet hole is blocked due to deposition of setting sand, so that the separator cannot work normally. The separator comprises a central pipe and a plurality of setting cups mounted on the central pipe in a sleeving manner at equal intervals, wherein the bottom surface of the cup body of each setting cup is faceted; sand setting holes are formed in roots of outer convex edges of the faceted bottom surfaces of cup bodies; and 2-6 sand setting holes are formed in each setting cup, and setting holes of upper setting cups and lower setting cups are arranged in a staggered manner, and the diameter of each sand setting hole ranges between 1 mm and 4 mm. The separator achieves the separation of liquid and sand, so that the process of injection-production in the same well for an oil field can be implemented smoothly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a downhole liquid sand separator used in the oil recovery field. Background technique [0002] The applicant invented the multi-layer iso-flow coalescing oil-water separator in 2010. Its patent number is 201010110839.2. After two years of field use, although the oil-water separation effect is good, there will be a lot of sand in the separator. These Sand settling will block the liquid inlet hole on the center pipe, and eventually the oil-water separation cannot be completed. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a multi-stage separator for downhole liquid and sand, which solves the problem that the liquid inlet hole of the existing oil-water separator is blocked due to sedimentation and sand deposition, thereby making the separator unable to work normally. [0004] In order to achieve the above invention, the technical solution adopted by the present application is: a downhole ...
