Abstract

An oil and gas downhole device is disclosed wherein the device separates the oil and gas from undesired water, which returns to the formation.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A flow controller mounted in a well bore to control flow of a mixture of desired products and unwanted products comprising:
 a packer mounted in the well bore to permit substantial flow of desired products;   a downhole filter device of sizes to inhibit the flow of unwanted products mixed with the desired products;   said downhole filter device powered by hydrostatic pressure of the products in the well bore.   
     
     
         2 . The flow controller of  claim 1 , wherein said flow of the desired product runs from the interior of the well bore to the surface of the well bore. 
     
     
         3 . The flow controller of  claim 1 , wherein the desired product is in a formation having oil and gas and the unwanted product is water. 
     
     
         4 . The flow controller of  claim 1 , wherein said filter device includes a sand screen packed to permit the oil and gas to flow through said filter and packed to repel the water to the formation. 
     
     
         5 . A flow controller mounted in an oil and gas well bore in a formation and having means for control of the flow of oil and gas desired effluent and indirectly to control unwanted water, comprising:
 a packer mounted in the well bore;   said packer blocking flow around the packer;   a gas and oil directional compressor connected to said packer and ascending into the well bore;   said compressor passing the gas and oil through said compressor and said packer; and   said compressor passing the water into the formation,   
     
     
         6 . A process for separating oil and gas from water when procuring a well, comprising:
 feeding oil and gas by a downhole drilling device from a formation through a casing and tubing screen to the surface; and   causing the water to flow to the formation and not reach the surface.
