METHOD OF CONTROLLING GAS-FIELD Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC E21B43/12 E21B33/03 

Abstract RU 2367789 C1

FIELD: oil-and-gas production.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to mining industry and can be used for exploiting gas fields through remote, automatic and manual control of well shutting-off devices. According to the method, a well can be controlled through opening and closing of shutting-off devices of an X-mas tree - wing and casing valves and an underground safety valve, as well as through regulation of well flow rate using a throttle valve. The well is connected to a control station, which comprises a pump-accumulator unit and a well control unit. The pump-accumulator unit comprises a group of pumps and a power functional hydropneumatic accumulator, linked through an actuating medium with a high-pressure line, which connects them to the well control unit. The high-pressure line is connected through reducing pressure regulators to power lines for functional control of shutting-off devices and the throttle valve. The station is equipped with a logical control line, which is connected to actuating mechanisms, providing for automatic command transmission for consecutive closure of the wing valve, casing valve, underground safety valve through delay mechanisms. Each delay mechanism has a control hydropneumatic accumulator and a throttle, adjusted for given delay of flow of actuating medium from the control hydropneumatic accumulator. The shut-off command arrives at the actuating mechanism of the wing valve first, then, with given delay, to the actuating mechanism of the casing valve, after which, with given further delay, to the actuating mechanism of the underground safety valve. The logical control line is hydraulically linked to monitoring and control devices - a fuse link and a low- and high-pressure control valve. The monitoring and control devices are connected through the actuating medium, each to its trigger mechanism which controls pressure release in the given logical control line. The logical control line is doubly provided with similar trigger mechanisms for remote and manual triggering successive closure of the said well shutting-off devices in the said order.

EFFECT: more reliable and accident-free operation of a gas field, reduced cost of extracting gas, easier control of processes due to automated control of well shutting-off devices.
