An invention for supplying power to a well. In one embodiment power heats a tubing from adjacent the surface to a selected level to prevent the formation of solids. The tubing is heated by passing an electric current therethrough. In one form the tubing is insulated from the wellhead and the casing down to a selected level where an electrical connection is made between the tubing and casing. Current is applied to the tubing at a point below an insulating tubing collar. In another form an insulated conduit is run into the well to a selected depth and connected to the tubing. Electrical power is connected to the tubing and to the insulated conduit.In another form a sucker rod is electrically insulated from the tubing down to a selected depth. The sucker rod includes a non-conducting section such as a fiberglas sucker rod. A conduit is run through the fiberglas rod and connected to the steel sucker rod therebelow.Also disclosed is a system for preventing formation of solids in a petroleum well by suspending a loop of wire in a well and passing a controlled amount of power along said loop of wire to heat the wire in which the loop of wire has sections of different resistance to apply different amounts of heat at different depths of the well. Further, there is disclosed an electromagnet for use as a contact between a wire and a well tubing and/or as an anchor.
摘要:
The tubing of a cased petroleum well is heated for any purpose such as to prevent deposition of solids by coupling a microwave source to the well annulus at the surface and transmitting the waves down the annulus.Special coupling means is provided to couple at the annulus to accommodate the arbitrary positions of naturally occurring microwaves in the annulus of the well.
摘要:
A well rod pump having a filter system to remove particulate material from the fluids produced from the well and an automatic back flush system using pumped fluid to flush particulate material from the filter system in response to increased pressure differential across the filter system, including a rod moved by a piston to open the valves of the pump, and a time delay connected to continue to hold the valves open for a period sufficient to allow back flushed particles to settle in the well. Well treatment chemicals may be injected into the well with the back flushing fluid.

Disclosed herein is a novel fuel cell stack assembly. In one embodiment, the stacks of the present invention comprise: a first and a second end plate; a plurality of fuel cells interposed between the first and second end plates, at least one of the fuel cells having a unitized MEA assembly and/or a compound flow field; a means to separate neighboring fuel cell components; and a compression means.
摘要:
The present invention comprises a unitized MEA assembly for use in a fuel cell or a fuel cell stack assembly. In the embodiments of the invention, the MEA is made integral to the frame to reduce certain risks and disadvantages associated with nonstabilized MEAs in fuel cell applications. Specifically disclosed are two preferred embodiments of the unitized MEA assembly of the present invention and methods for making same.
摘要:
A system for lifting liquid from a wellbore includes a turbine selectively coupled to a source of gas flow originating in the wellbore. The turbine is arranged to convert the gas flow directly into rotation of the turbine. An hydraulic pump is rotationally coupled to the turbine. An hydraulic cylinder and piston are arranged to move a sucker rod string disposed in the wellbore. Control valves are provided to selectively apply gas flow to the turbine and hydraulic pressure from the pump to lift the piston and enable lowering thereof by the weight of the sucker rod string. The system further comprises control circuits configured to operate the control valves.
摘要:
A filter assembly for filtering particulate matter from well fluids to be pumped by a downhole pump in an oil well including a filter and apparatus to reverse the flow through the filter in response to a pre-selected level of differential pressure across the filter, the apparatus including a check valve which opens to allow fluid to flow through to operate a piston to open a pump valve and allow fluid flow out of the pump.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for producing wells in which the tubing and casing are used as electrical conduits for a centrifugal pump in the well and single phase A. C. or D. C. current is supplied to the well and converted to three phase current at the pump motor.
摘要:
There is disclosed a reciprocating rod type downhole pump for an oil well wherein a filter on the lower end of the barrel of the pump includes a solid body of filtering media having small tortuous passageways connecting its inner and outer sides and decreasing in size from its outer to its inner side.
