摘要:
A cold worked and spinodally-hardened copper alloy comprising from about 8 to about 20 wt% nickel, and from about 5 to about 11 wt% tin, the remaining balance being copper, and having a 0.2% offset yield strength of at least 75 ksi, is used to form a sucker rod coupling or subcoupling. Each coupling is formed from a core having two ends, each end having an internal thread. These box ends engage the pin of a sucker rod or other rod. The exterior surface of the core includes grooves running between the two ends.

A hydraulic anchoring assembly (10, 10a), and method of its use, for anchoring and sealing an insertable progressing cavity pump on rods in a well. The assembly (10, 10a) has one or more cup seals (42, 42a), upstream of one or more inflatable packers (14, 14a) upstream of one or more hydraulic slips (16). The cup seals (42, 42a) provide a pressure differential for inflation of the upstream most inflatable packer (14), which in turn provides a pressure differential for the downstream inflatable packer(s) (14a) to inflate to produce a fluid tight seal between the insertable progressing cavity pump and the well. In highly deviated wells the up seals (42, 42a) can be used to pump the hydraulic anchoring assembly (10, 10a) down the well in situations where the rods would otherwise buckle.

An assembly is provided that can include check valve. The check valve can include a ball positioned between an inflow line and an outflow line. The ball can be movable between (i) an open position at which a fluid is allowed to flow between the inflow line and the outflow line and (ii) a closed position at which the fluid is prevented from flowing between the inflow line and the outflow line. The assembly can also include a spring positioned adjacent to the ball and operable to bias the ball in a closed position. The assembly can further include a poppet positioned adjacent to the ball. The poppet can be movable in response to a communication of a pilot pressure to the poppet. Further, the ball can be movable to the closed position in response to a force applied by the poppet.

A method for injecting a treating fluid into a hydrocarbon fluid production well via an injection conduit (15) which is at least partially formed by an annular space (13) between inner (12) and outer walls (11) of a double-walled tubular string (10) suspended within the well; as well as a system for injecting a treating fluid into a hydrocarbon fluid production well, the system comprising a flapper valve (3) in fluid connection with an injection conduit (15) which is at least partially formed by an annular space (13) between inner (12) and outer walls (11) of a double-walled tubular string (10) suspended within the well.

The present invention concerns a system for extracting the liquids from a well producing liquid and gas, in which the system comprises: a separation wall (105) defining, in the well, a first space (113) and a second space (112); a liquid-gas separator (117); and a system (108) for eliminating separated liquid. Moreover, the first space is suitable for conveying a mixture comprising the gas and liquid from a production area to the separator. Furthermore, the separator is suitable for separating the gas and liquid from the mixture. Moreover, the second space is suitable for receiving the liquid separated from the mixture. Finally, the elimination system is suitable for eliminating the separated liquid using at least the gravitational potential energy of said separated liquid in the second space.
摘要:
A repeatedly usable downhole pumping assembly including; a conduit comprising a plurality of pipes, wherein the pipes are uniformly entwined together along their length to provide multiple fluid passageways, wherein the conduit is to be wound onto a reel and off the reel repeatedly; a rotatably mounted reel, upon which the conduit is adapted to be wound without collapsing; a pump for pumping fluid through the conduit; and a driving means to lower and raise the conduit relative to the bore.

There is provided a system for producing oil from a well bore extending through a fossil fuel reservoir. The system includes a plurality of perforations defined in the casing proximate the fossil fuel reservoir. A gas flow tube is in communication with the annulus volume of the casing proximate the wellhead. A gas valve is coupled to the gas flow tube, with the gas valve configured to selectively open and close the gas flow tube. A controller, is coupled to the gas valve, with the controller configured to control the opening and closing of the gas valve. The opening and closing of the gas valve maximizes the volumetric rate of oil flow into the annulus volume through the perforations from the reservoir by displacing liquid in the annulus volume with a gas volume between the gas valve and the perforations.

A system for detecting when a plunger reaches a bottom of a well includes a pressure sensor configured to measure a pressure of the well and provide a measured pressure output. Derivative calculation circuitry calculates a derivative of the measured pressure output. Detection circuitry detects when the plunger reaches the bottom of the well based upon the calculated derivative.
