What problems can be encountered in process of wellhead oil production?

There are many problems that may be encountered in the process of wellhead oil production. The following are some common problems:

1.Oil well plugging: impurities such as sediments, sand grains or oil wax produced inside the oil well may block the oil production path of the oil well and reduce the oil production efficiency.

2.Oil well pressure drop: As the oil field develops over time, the pressure of the oil well will gradually decrease, resulting in a decrease in oil production. At this time, it may be necessary to take pressurization measures, such as water injection or gas injection, to increase the pressure of the oil well.

3.Oil well rupture: Due to geological structure changes, injection-production pressure differences, etc., oil well pipelines may crack or break, resulting in oil well rupture and oil production being blocked.

4.Oil well environmental protection issues: Oil well exploitation will produce a large amount of sewage, waste and waste gas, etc., which will pollute the environment, and reasonable environmental protection measures need to be taken for treatment and disposal.

5. Oil well safety accidents: Wellhead explosions, mud injections, fires and other safety accidents may occur during oil production, causing injuries and losses to staff and equipment.

These problems need to be monitored, prevented and dealt with in time to ensure the stability and safety of oil well operations.
