Product Description

API 7K Frac Hose Acid fracturing rubber hoses

Acid fracturing rubber hoses are crucial components in the oil and gas industry, specifically designed for the acid fracturing process. This technique involves injecting acid into underground rock formations at high pressure to create fractures, which enhances the permeability of the reservoir and boosts the extraction of oil and gas. are widely used in mining and production operations, mainly responsible for the task of transporting high-viscosity acid fracturing fluids to underground oil layers, acid fracturing, sand fracturing, hydraulic fracturing pipelines in well completion operations. It transports water-based, oil-based, foam, acid-based and other fracturing fluids in high pressure, known as a sharp tool for activating formation venous blood.

Structure

Inner layer: Made of acid resistant synthetic rubber or polymer composite materials, used for direct contact and transmission of fracturing fluid, effectively resisting the erosion of acidic liquids.

Middle layer: High strength steel wire weaving or winding layer is used to provide necessary pressure bearing capacity and anti explosion protection, ensuring the stability of the hose under high pressure.

Outer layer: Made of synthetic rubber with excellent wear resistance and anti-aging performance to ensure that the long-term use of the hose in complex environments will not be affected.

Protective layer: Spiral sheath

Production Process

The production of acidizing fracturing hoses, designed for high-pressure and highly corrosive fracking environments, involves a stringent manufacturing process based on a "from the inside out" layering principle. The core steps are as follows:

1. Material Preparation & Inner Layer Extrusion

Material Preparation: Raw materials are weighed precisely according to formulations. The inner tube compound is typically a specialized synthetic rubber (e.g., HNBR or FKM) offering exceptional resistance to acids and oils.
Inner Layer Extrusion: The compound is fed into an extruder, where it is heated and forced through a die to form a seamless, hollow tube. This creates the primary barrier against leakage and corrosion.
2. Reinforcement Layer Braiding/Winding

This is the core step determining the hose's pressure-bearing capacity. High-tensile steel wires are applied over the inner tube using precision braiding or winding machines.
Braiding: Provides good flexibility, often used for medium-to-high pressure hoses.
Winding: Withstands ultra-high pressures, making it the preferred choice for acidizing fracturing hoses. Multiple layers (e.g., 4 or 6) of steel wires are cross-wound to create an extremely robust "metal skeleton."
3. Outer Layer Extrusion & Covering

An abrasion, weather, and ozone-resistant cover (often made from Chloroprene Rubber CR or other specialty polymers) is extruded over the reinforcement layer. This layer protects the internal steel wires from physical damage, friction, and environmental factors.
4. Vulcanization (Curing)

The hose assembly is placed into an autoclave (a large pressure vessel).
Under specific temperature, pressure, and time conditions, the rubber undergoes vulcanization. This process cross-links the polymer chains, giving the hose its final shape, strength, elasticity, and durability.
5. End Fitting Attachment & Pressure Testing

Steel end fittings are crimped onto the hose. Every hose is rigorously pressure-tested to ensure safety and no leaks.

6. Packaging & Storage

Approved hoses are cleaned, marked, and packaged (coiled or straight) according to specifications before final storage and shipment.

Applications

These hoses are critical in oil and gas extraction, designed for conveying fluids under extreme conditions. Their primary applications are:

1. High-Pressure Fracturing Operations

Their main use is in hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"). They transport high-volume, high-pressure fracturing fluid into the wellbore to fracture rock formations and release oil or gas.
2. Acidizing Stimulation Treatments

They are specifically designed to pump highly corrosive acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid) into the reservoir. This dissolves rock minerals and cleans out pores to enhance well productivity.
3. Proppant and Abrasive Slurry Transport

Fracturing fluid contains large amounts of proppants (e.g., sand, ceramic beads). The hoses must have excellent abrasion resistance to withstand the erosion from this slurry.
4. Other Oilfield Services

They are also used in other high-pressure operations like cementing, well flushing, and testing, serving as flexible high-pressure connections between pumps and the wellhead.

Features and benefits

Cost Saving: Fracturing hoses significantly cut down on steel pipes, components, and seals, minimizing connection points. Their innovative connections enable swift hook-ups to pump trucks and wellhead gear, thereby speeding up installation, minimizing downtime, and boosting operational efficiency.
Safety: The hose design includes wear indicators and a three-color inner rubber system — white for normal use, black for extended use, and red indicating replacement needed. This allows for easy inspection and lifespan prediction.
Long Service Life: Made of corrosion- and wear-resistant rubber, the hose's inner layer withstands harsh chemicals and fluids. Its outer layer, with a spiral sheath, adds wear resistance, anti-static protection, and UV shielding, ensuring durability in tough environments.
High Pressure Resistance: The hose can handle up to 15,000 Psi working pressure, with a test pressure of 22,500 Psi and a burst pressure of 33,750 Psi.
Flexibility and Simplicity: Unlike heavy, cumbersome traditional flow irons, frac hoses offer agility in frac operations, making them lighter and easier to handle.
Operating Temperature Range: From -29°C to 100°C.
Connection Options: Choose from hammer unions or flanges for versatile end connections.
