    摘要: A method and system for producing a mixed gas-oil stream through a wellbore wherein at least a portion of the gas is separated from the stream downhole and is compressed (e.g. using a SPARC) before both the compressed gas and the remainder of the stream is brought to the surface through separate flowpaths. The system includes a string of tubing which provides the flowpath for the remainder of the stream while the annulus, formed between the tubing string and the wellbore provides the flowpath for the compressed gas.

    摘要: A method and system for increasing oil production from an oil well producing a mixture of oil, water, and gas through a wellbore penetrating an oil-bearing formation containing an oil-bearing zone, an aqueous zone, and a gas zone by separating from the mixture of oil, water, and gas in the oil well at least a portion of the water to produce a separated water-enriched portion and a separated oil/gas-enriched portion; driving a turbine with the separated oil/gas-enriched portion; driving a water pump and a compressor in the oil well with the turbine; injecting the separated water-enriched portion into a water injection zone; separating from the separated oil/gas-enriched portion in the oil well at least a portion of the gas to produce a separated gas and the oil-enriched mixture; compressing the separated gas to a pressure greater than a pressure in a gas injection zone to produce a compressed gas; injecting the compressed gas into the gas injection zone; and recovering at least a major portion of the oil-enriched mixture.

    摘要: A method and system for increasing oil production from an oil well producing a mixture of oil, water, gas, and/or solids through a wellbore penetrating an oil-bearing formation containing an oil-bearing zone and a selected injection zone, by separating from the mixture of oil, water, gas, and/or solids in the oil well at least a portion of the gas to produce a first separated gas and a first portion of an oil-enriched mixture; directing the first portion of the oil-enriched mixture through a bypass passageway having an outlet in fluid communication with a surface so that the first portion of the oil-enriched mixture bypasses a turbine in the oil well; driving the turbine with the first separated gas; driving a compressor in the oil well with the turbine; separating from the first separated gas in the oil well at least a portion of the gas to produce a second separated gas and a second portion of an oil-enriched mixture; compressing with the compressor the second separated gas to a pressure greater than a pressure in the selected injection zone to produce a compressed gas; injecting the compressed gas into the selected injection zone; and recovering at least a major portion of the first portion of the oil-enriched mixture and the second portion of the oil-enriched mixture.

    摘要: A well conduit cutting and milling apparatus (22) conveyable into and out of a well on coilable tubing (27) using a tubing injection unit (21). The apparatus includes tubing or casing cutting arms (30) which are radially extendable and retractable with respect to a cylindrical support body by pressure fluid operated pistons (64, 70). The apparatus is made up of multiple end-to-end connected units including one which supports interchangeable cutting and milling arms (30) and units which have radially extensible and retractable stabilizing arms (38) which engage the inner wall of the tubing (12) or casing (10) to centralize and stabilize the apparatus during operation. The cutter and milling arms (30) are modified for milling away a section of tubing (12) by moving the apparatus in an upward or out of the well direction. The cutting elements (34) are preferably cylindrical hard metal members which are supported on the arms (30) for cutting away an end face of the tubing (12) in a tangential direction of movement.

    摘要: Oil and water based drilling muds, together with other wellbore contaminants such as pipe thread sealants and lubricants are displaced from the well (10) and the wellbore surfaces are cleaned by a system of four serially pumped fluid pills. The first stage fluid pill is a weighted spacer having an alkyl polyglycoside surfactant, a dispersant, a weighting agent and a viscosifier. The second stage pill is a drive fluid formed by water and a viscous polymer gel such as clarified xanthan gum having a viscosity/shear rate characteristic which minimizes mixing of the drive fluid pill with the displacement fluid pill. A buffer fluid pill comprising completion brine is interposed between the drive fluid pill and a fourth stage comprising a wash fluid pill using an organic solvent or a caustic alkyl polyglycoside as a final cleaning stage. The densities of the pills are controlled to minimize mixing and fingering.

    摘要: Slurried solid waste materials are injected into subterranean earth formations in a zone of interest (102) which has a relatively low in situ compressive stress (96) bounded by zones of higher in situ compressive stress (98, 100) and wherein the zone of interest has alternate layers of material of relatively high and low permeability to fluid flow, respectively. The solid waste slurry is conducted through an injection well (92) penetrating the zone of interest to form a conventional two-winged hydraulic fracture (132, 134). The fracture is extended by reducing the tendency to form filtercake in the fracture adjacent to the layers of material of relatively low permeability (142, 144) while depositing particle filtercake adjacent the earth layers of high permeability (146, 148, 150) so as to provide clear fluid flowpaths through the fracture while allowing the filtercake layers disposed in the fracture to assist in propping the fracture open.
