摘要:
The invention provides a method and apparatus for creating plasma particles and applying the plasma particles to a liquid. Liquid feedstock (e.g., water and/or hydrocarbons mixed with biomass) is pumped through a pipeline; the single-phase stream is then transformed into a biphasic liquid-and-gas stream inside a chamber. The transformation is achieved by transitioning the stream from a high pressure zone to a lower-pressure zone. The pressure drop may occur when the stream further passes through a device for atomizing liquid. Inside the chamber, an electric field is generated with an intensity level that exceeds the threshold of breakdown voltage of the biphasic medium leading to a generation of a plasma state. Furthermore, the invention provides an energy-efficient highly adaptable and versatile method and apparatus for sanitizing water using plasma particles to inactivate biological agents contaminating water.

The invention provides an apparatus, method and system for stimulating production of a natural resource (e.g., Oil, gas or water) producing well using vibrational energy delivered to the geological formation through a device that maybe permanently installed, and continuously or periodically operated even during recovery of the natural resource. The apparatus is of a downhole type. The apparatus is constructed to resist corrosion and provides one or more heat sink chambers for controlling heat dissipation during operation. The system provided by the invention is capable of monitoring production, adapting stimulation parameters based on user input and other pertinent parameters.

An electro acoustic device and related method for increasing production capacity of wells that contains oil, gas and/or water is disclosed. The electro acoustic device produces vibrations stimulating occurrence of mass transfer processes within the well. The resultant acoustic flow generated in porous media, produced by superposition of longitudinal and shear waves, is developed over a characteristic frequency threshold value specific to water, normal oil and heavy oil, with an acoustic energy density capable of establishing higher fluidity zones in the porous media, promoting mobility and recovery of desired fluid and formation damage reduction in a wellbore. The down hole electro acoustic device is a submerged unit placed in the well producing zone, and consists of an electric generator, one or more electro acoustic transducers, and one or more waveguide systems (sonotrodes) that include tubular type radiators which provide transmission of elastic vibrations into the medium under treatment.

The invention provides a system, method and downhole tool for stimulating a borehole of wells in reservoir. The invention allows a user to determine the type of stimulation adequate to promote production in a reservoir, and apply one or more treatments to each individual well by activating one or more modules comprised in the downhole tools. Furthermore, the tool comprises sensors that collect information in real-time of the state of the reservoir. The data collected is processed and newly acquired data is compared with previously acquired data to assess the development of production and further plan treatment strategies to optimize production.

The invention provides an apparatus and method for stimulating a borehole of a well. The invention provides an apparatus that generates low-frequency seismic type elastic waves that propagate to the geologic formation and in order to enhance the movement of fluids in the geologic formation toward a well. The apparatus may operate automatically driven by a power source that may be located on the ground surface. The regime of operation may be determined by user input. Operation of the apparatus may carried out while production of a natural resource is ongoing.
摘要:
The invention applies to the oil-producing industry and is intended for the intensification of processes increasing the yield of oil wells developed by conventional methods during production of high viscosity oils. Both objects of said invention have as a technical result an increase in the permeability of a reservoir and a reduction in the viscosity of oil, added to an increase in environmental safety by avoiding use of chemical reagents and steam generators. First object of said invention applies a high power ultrasonic field in the well bottom (10) zone that reduces viscosity of oil, also heating said zone. Second object of said invention comprises a surface ultrasonic generator and at least one ultrasonic magnetostrictive radiator placed at end of oil well tubing, using high frequency currents that warm said tubing maintaining viscosity of oil during transport to the surface.
