SELF-POWERED DOWNHOLE ELECTROLYSIS TOOL

A downhole power generation system uses the inherent downhole energy in the well to operate an electrolysis system that creates hydrogen and oxygen gas. A turbine can be driven by movement in the well, which can drive a generator to create the electrolysis. Other embodiments can use other ways of ob...

Zusammenfassung:A downhole power generation system uses the inherent downhole energy in the well to operate an electrolysis system that creates hydrogen and oxygen gas. A turbine can be driven by movement in the well, which can drive a generator to create the electrolysis. Other embodiments can use other ways of obtaining energy from the well including the piezoelectric device or heat exchanger.
