Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas field well completion engineering, in particular to an oil-water separation device and an oil-water separation device pipe string.
Background
In recent years, horizontal well technology is gradually applied in large quantities, but the problems of fast horizontal well yield decrease, fast bottom water rise, difficult water exploration and water shutoff and the like also become technical keys influencing the long-term stable yield of the horizontal well. How to furthest guarantee that each part of the horizontal section can produce in a balanced manner and realizing water control becomes a key technical problem in horizontal well development. Aiming at the problem, various horizontal well water control completion technologies appear at home and abroad, such as segmented variable density sieve tube water control completion, central tube water control completion, ICD water control sieve tube completion, flow regulation water control sieve tube completion and the like.
The flow-regulating and water-controlling screen pipe well completion technology can effectively prolong the waterless oil production period of the horizontal well and achieve the purpose of improving the development effect, so that the flow-regulating and water-controlling screen pipe well completion technology is widely applied. The flow-regulating water-controlling sieve tube well completion technology can shorten the well completion period, reduce reservoir pollution and facilitate reservoir protection; the well completion cost is reduced, and the later water plugging operation cost is avoided; the flow-regulating and water-controlling well completion reduces the water content, improves the displacement effect of bottom water, balances the profile of produced liquid and finally improves the recovery ratio.
However, the flow-regulating and water-controlling sieve tube has the following problems in the application process: the size of a water nozzle needs to be set before the flow-regulating and water-controlling sieve tube is put in, the water nozzle cannot be regulated after the flow-regulating and water-controlling sieve tube is put in, and the difficulty of later-stage extracting is high; the stratum collapse is caused by the long-time production of the oil well, so that the blockage outside the flow regulating and water controlling sieve tube is increased, and the water regulating and controlling capacity of the flow regulating and water controlling sieve tube is reduced; the additional pressure difference is too small under the condition of low liquid yield, and the water control effect is influenced. The increase of the external resistance of the sieve tube after the stratum collapses increases the flow resistance of oil and water at the same time, reduces the multiple of the flow resistance of the oil and water flowing from the stratum to the inside of the sieve tube through the nozzles, and weakens the control action of the water nozzle on the water.
Therefore, the problems that the difficulty of later-stage extract of the water control sieve tube is high, the additional pressure difference is small under the condition of low liquid yield to influence the water control effect, the flowing resistance multiple of oil and water from the stratum to the inside of the sieve tube through the nozzle of the water control sieve tube is reduced when the flowing resistance of the oil and water is increased, the weakening of the nozzle for water control is caused, and the like are still to be solved urgently in the development of the horizontal well.
