Embodiment
The method using in following embodiment if no special instructions, is conventional method.
Material, reagent etc. used in following embodiment, if no special instructions, all can obtain from commercial channels.
Set up pipeline OLGA simulation model according to pipeline data with along journey environmental conditions, according to oil gas field production logistics component data, judge Hydrate Formation Conditions, and contrast along journey temperature and pressure with pipeline, generate 5 DEG C of temperature if manage defeated temperature under the defeated pressure condition of pipe lower than hydrate, need to inject hydrate inhibitor and prevent that hydrate from generating blocking pipe, and in model, add a certain amount of hydrate inhibitor, reduce Hydrate Formation Conditions, guarantee that under the defeated pressure condition of pipe, managing defeated temperature generates 5 DEG C of temperature higher than hydrate.
Because large discrepancy in elevation gas-liquid delivery pipeline is in the time starting, in pipeline, liquid phase reaches after certain cumulant, pipe outlet just has liquid and flows out, and hydrate inhibitor major part all exists in water, therefore need to simulate the time of pipe outlet oil phase, water and the hydrate inhibitor arrival of pipeline start operating performance.Original state before model pipeline starts, be the gas that is full of certain pressure in pipeline, then the oil gas water that makes oil gas field produce enters gassiness pipeline, the process of oil phase and water equilibrium establishment in simulation pipeline start operating performance pipeline, determine the time (T) that pipe outlet oil phase and water flow out: controlling described pipe outlet does not have the delivery time of water to be less than 100 hours, does not have the delivery time of oil phase to be less than 60 hours; According to hydrate inhibitor injection amount (Q, m3/h), determine whether the storage volume (Q × T) of pipe downstream hydrate inhibitor can meet the demands, determine that the delivery time of hydrate inhibitor is less than 100 hours.
The variation tendency of analyzing oil and gas real estate amount and well head pressure, judge whether oil gas field production period has the operating mode that throughput rate raises or discharge pressure reduces, in model, change relevant parameter, simulation throughput rate and pressure change the variation of operating mode pipe outlet fluid flow, and design pipe downstream slug catcher size according to changing value (Q2-Q1) and the transformation period (t2-t1) of outlet accumulative total liquid measure, guarantee that the unexpected increase of pipe outlet liquid measure can not affect the normal operation of pipe downstream facilities and equipment: the increasing degree of controlling throughput rate in large discrepancy in elevation mixed transportation of oil and gas pipeline is not more than 25%, the reduction amplitude of discharge pressure is not more than 25%.
Along with the decay of gas well output, under the state that large discrepancy in elevation gas-liquid delivery pipeline is carried in low throughput rate, in pipe, dispersed phase holdup, along with throughput rate reduces to increase, is finally understood pipeline and cannot be carried and cause gas well to be closed down, and therefore needs to increase pipeline throughput rate and maintains normal conveying.As shown in Figure 1,2 pipeline throughput directions of normal conveying are underwater well head to downstream platform, in the time that pipeline 1 need to circulate tonifying Qi, valve 2 is closed, valve 3 is opened, pipeline 1 and pipeline 2 are formed to circulation loop, and after downstream platform supercharging, gas enters as pipeline 1 tonifying Qi from pipeline 2 platform ends, maintains pipeline 1 and normally carries.
