Description

A kind of method for thermal cracking that reduces extra-heavy oil viscosity and condensation point
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method for thermal cracking that reduces extra-heavy oil viscosity and condensation point, belong in the situation that there is not the thermal non-catalytic cracking of hydrogen hydrocarbon ils.
Background technology
Along with the worsening shortages of conventional crude resource, the development and utilization of non-conventional oil resource seems more and more important, and the heavy crude particularly produced quantity of extra-heavy oil increases year by year.The viscosity of extra-heavy oil is large, condensation point is high, be difficult to carry out pipeline and carry, serious restriction the further development and use of extra-heavy oil.
Satisfy pipeline and carry requirement, must effectively reduce viscosity and the condensation point of extra-heavy oil, a kind of simple method is to mix light crude or outsourcing thinner in extra-heavy oil, but the method is subject to the restriction that incorporation is large, light crude is short and outsourcing thinner cost is high, and the method for mixing simultaneously light crude or thinner in the extra-heavy oil does not meet the requirement of modern refining of petroleum yet.Another kind method is to add emulsifying agent in extra-heavy oil, forms oil-in-water type emulsified oil, and its viscosity and condensation point can satisfy pipeline and carry requirement, but the oil in water emulsion temperature influence is larger, is prone to demulsifying phenomenon, causes extra-heavy oil to separate out blocking pipe.In addition, the price of emulsifying agent is high, consumption is large, and economy is relatively poor.
Set up on the spot extra-heavy oil deep processing device in the oil field, can produce and satisfy lightweight synthetic crude or the light weight fluid petroleum products that pipeline is carried requirement, the shortcoming of the method is that facility investment, operation and maintenance cost are higher, and is unreasonable economically.
Set up the simple extra-heavy oil modifying apparatus of a cover in the oil field, low sticking, the crude oil of low-coagulation of its production can directly or by mixing a small amount of thinner satisfy the requirement that pipeline is carried.The facility investment of the method and Operation and Maintenance expense are low, and better economy is the direction that solves at present the extra-heavy oil difficulty of transportation.The technique of viscosity breaking and thermally splitting is simple, facility investment and process cost are lower, is a kind of technology that is suitable in the oil field extra-heavy oil being carried out elementary processing.
CN1325605C discloses a kind for the treatment of process of oil sands bitumen, and the method is the combination process of a kind of viscosity breaking and solvent deasphalting, and it is to the not restriction of order of viscosity breaking and solvent deasphalting.Produce outer output oil after the visbreaking oil that finally obtains mixes with atmospheric distillate, de-oiled asphalt can be used for producing steam and synthetic gas.The viscosity breaking condition is 350~500 ℃ of temperature, pressure 0.3~15MPa, and the residence time is 1~6h.The method need to be deviate from bituminous matter could satisfy the crude pipeline transportation requirement, and its synthetic crude yield is lower; Although de-oiled asphalt can be used for gasifying process, equipment for gasification investment and process cost are higher, and economy is relatively poor.
US2006/0144754A1 discloses a kind of method from heavy crude production pipeline oil.The method at first is divided into two portions with raw material, and a part of raw material is divided into distillate and residual oil by distillation; Residual oil is carried out thermally splitting, and the thermally splitting product is divided into cracking benzoline, cracking intermediate oil and pressure fuel by distillation; Can again carry out thermally splitting and fractionation by distillation to the cracking intermediate oil; Distillate in the above steps, cracking benzoline and another part raw material are mixed, obtain synthetic crude, pressure fuel can be used for generating or produces heat energy.The method technical process is complicated, need to deviate from thermally splitting heavy oil and could satisfy the crude pipeline transportation requirement, and its synthetic crude yield is lower.
In sum, the all or part of heavy component that prior art must be deviate from raw material just can be produced and meet the synthetic crude that crude pipeline transportation requires, not only lost the synthetic crude yield, and the heavy component of deviating from there is not preferably the treatment process with economy yet in relatively remote oil field.
