Patent number: 11142989Abstract: A tool for perforating, packing and fracturing and a tubing string comprising the tool are disclosed. The tool comprises an upper connector, a connection sleeve, a mandrel, a packer, a lower connector, and an inner sleeve. The upper connector is provided with communication holes, and a nozzle is provided at each communication hole. The inner sleeve is provided on an inner wall of the upper connector to block the nozzle. Under an action of a fracturing fluid, the inner sleeve moves downwards to expose the nozzle, and the packer is packed. Then, perforating is performed through the nozzle. After perforating is finished, the nozzle is configured to be lost at a communication hole, and then fracturing is performed. When the tool is used, operation cost can be reduced, and reservoir stimulation effect can be improved.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2017Date of Patent: October 12, 2021Assignees: CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION, SINOPEC SOUTHWEST OIL & GAS COMPANYInventors: Zhenwei Gan, Bin Qi, Shunqu Hu, Zhimin Hou, Yongmao Lin, Yijun Zhou, Lei Wang, Tao Liu, Wenjiang Teng, Jingyu Cui

Publication number: 20210189844Abstract: A device for perforating, packing and fracturing and a tubing string comprising the device are disclosed. The device comprises an upper connector, a nozzle sleeve, a mandrel, a packer, a lower connector, a first inner sleeve provided inside the upper connector, and a second inner sleeve provided inside the nozzle sleeve. The upper connector is provided with a fracturing hole, and a nozzle is provided at the nozzle sleeve. In an initial state, the first inner sleeve blocks the fracturing hole, and the second inner sleeve blocks the nozzle. After an internal flowbore of the second inner sleeve is blocked, a fracturing fluid is pumped into the device. When a pressure reaches a first pressure, the second inner sleeve moves downwards to expose the nozzle and the packer is packed. At this time, perforation can be performed. After perforation is finished, the fracturing fluid is pumped into an annulus. When the pressure reaches a second pressure, the first inner sleeve moves downwards to expose the fracturing hole.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2017Publication date: June 24, 2021Inventors: Zhenwei GAN, Bin QI, Zhimin HOU, Shunqu HU, Wei LEI, Chen CHEN, Zhi XIE, Qiang WANG, Wei ZHAO, Yijun ZHOU
