Abstract
Given the prominent problem of water in the Tarim basin of China with high formation temperature and large water production, a preferred scheme of electric pump drainage and gas extraction unit for gas fields with a high gas-liquid ratio is proposed by the mechanical principle and structural design method. Then, the corresponding electric pumps were developed, and the drainage and gas extraction scheme of a permanent magnet electric pump unit with gas-liquid separation in the way of an inverted deflector is designed. Through indoor experiments simulating the downhole gas-liquid ratio environment, the gas-liquid separation ability and adaptability of the design scheme under different good conditions are verified. The results obtained demonstrate that the cable connection process can meet the requirements of high-pressure resistance (≥25 MPa), and the gas-liquid separation effect is very good in vertical wells by adopting the inverted deflector scheme. The separation effect exceeded 90% under different working conditions (production from 30 to 150 m3/day and inhalation gas-liquid ratio from 50% to 95% and even higher) in the experiment with high gas content. The results will promote the gas recovery rate of high gas-liquid ratio gas fields and improve extraction efficiency.
