Natural gas line operation and pigging process hydrate Forecasting Methodology
Technical field
The present invention is a kind of natural gas line operation and pigging process hydrate Forecasting Methodology.Relate to test not to be covered of other class and piping system technical field.
Background technology
At present, the hydrate Study on Generation Model Program has been a mature technology, but is used for theoretical research or laboratory experiment more.In the operation and pigging operation of natural gas line, because the polytrope and the complicacy of makings parameter only can accurately not dope whether have the stifled generation of ice with the hydrate generation model.In service at natural gas line, because the influence of factors such as gas flow at high speed, stirring, high-pressure pulsating in the pipeline, locate to form easily the obstruction that hydrate causes pipeline, separation equipment and instrument at channel bend, pressure regulator valve etc., simultaneously, pressure, temperature and the water cut of gas are constantly to change in the pipeline, therefore hydrate generation zone also is constantly to change in pipeline, does not also have the special hydrate forecasting techniques at natural gas line at present.
In gas pipe line operation and pigging operation, mainly be to rely on operation personnel's self experience to be judged at present, also do not have special moving and the stifled Forecasting Methodology of pigging operation ice at gas pipe line by pressure reduction, fluctuations in discharge to whether icing stifled.
Rely on self experience of pipe operations personnel to judge whether to ice in gas pipe line operation and the pigging operation and block up some drawbacks of existence.Owing to judge and just roughly judge by presentation and experience, there are not theoretical direction and calculating, simultaneously because operating personnel are different with the understanding of pigging to the pipeline operation, the experience level difference, cause judged result may have bigger error, thereby influence gas pipe line safe operation and pigging operation.
Existing a kind of technology " suppresses the method that conduits by gas hydrates stops up ", and this method suppresses the generation of hydrate by the method at pipeline interpolation inhibitor in service, thereby it is stifled to avoid pipeline that ice takes place.This method only provides anti-stagnant ice stifled a solution, hydrate in the pipeline is not generated and makes a prediction, and corresponding adding technology is not provided yet.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to invent natural gas line operation and pigging process hydrate Forecasting Methodology that whether a kind of accurate prediction natural gas line station field process island and main line reach the hydrate formation condition, technical support is provided for natural gas line safe operation and pigging operation.
The present invention is in conjunction with the practical operation situation of gas pipe line, the actual water dew point of pipeline and hydrate generate temperature when obtaining gas pipe line operation and pigging operation by Model Calculation, again by with pipeline in the gas actual temperature relatively judge whether to have hydrate and generate, technical support is provided for control ice in safe operation and the pigging operation is stifled.
The invention discloses a kind of natural gas line operation and pigging process hydrate Forecasting Methodology, may further comprise the steps:
1, monitoring natural gas line makings parameter mainly comprises gas composition, gaseous tension, range of temperature, gas water dew point;
2, calculate the water dew point of gas under different pressures by water dew point and liquid water content transformation model, water dew point and liquid water content transformation model are based on the fugacity that the P-R state equation calculates vaporous water and aqueous water, try to achieve conversion relation between rock gas water cut and the water dew point according to the principle that balances each other;
3, by water dew point and liquid water content transformation model and the water at atmospheric pressure dew point that records, can calculate the actual water dew point of gas under the pipeline pressure,, then show to have aqueous water if gas temperature is lower than actual water dew point, if gas temperature is higher than actual water dew point, then show not have aqueous water; Have only under the prerequisite that has aqueous water, could generate hydrate;
4, calculate the hydrate of gas under pipeline pressure by the hydrate generation model and generate temperature, if being lower than hydrate, gas temperature generates temperature, then show to reach the hydrate formation condition, generate temperature, then show not reach the hydrate formation condition if gas temperature is higher than hydrate;
5, generate temperature by gas temperature and gas water dew point, hydrate and can judge whether to have the hydrate generation, judged result is as shown in table 1.
Hydrate generates to be judged: when gas temperature>hydrate generates temperature, if gas temperature>actual water dew point does not then have aqueous water, no hydrate; If gas temperature<actual water dew point then has aqueous water, no hydrate;
When gas temperature<hydrate generates temperature, if gas temperature>actual water dew point does not then have aqueous water, no hydrate; If gas temperature<actual water dew point then has aqueous water, hydrate is arranged.
