Embodiment
The method used in following embodiment if no special instructions, is conventional method.
Material used in following embodiment, reagent etc., if no special instructions, all can obtain from commercial channels.
Pipeline OLGA simulation model is set up 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, if manage defeated temperature to generate temperature 5 DEG C lower than hydrate under the defeated pressure condition of pipe, then needing to inject hydrate inhibitor prevents hydrate from generating blocking pipe, and add a certain amount of hydrate inhibitor in a model, reduce Hydrate Formation Conditions, guarantee that under the defeated pressure condition of pipe, manage defeated temperature generates temperature 5 DEG C higher than hydrate.
Because large discrepancy in elevation gas-liquid delivery pipeline is when starting, after in pipeline, liquid phase reaches certain cumulant, pipe outlet just has liquid and flows out, and hydrate inhibitor major part all exists in aqueous phase, therefore need the time that the pipe outlet oil phase of simulation pipeline start operating performance, aqueous phase and hydrate inhibitor arrive.First the original state before pipeline startup is set up, namely the gas of certain pressure is full of in pipeline, then the oil gas water making oil gas field produce enters gassiness pipeline, the process of oil phase and aqueous phase equilibrium establishment in simulation pipeline start operating performance pipeline, determine the time (T) that pipe outlet oil phase and aqueous phase flow out: controlling described pipe outlet does not have the delivery time of aqueous phase 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, and determines 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, change relevant parameter in a model, the change of simulation throughput rate and pressure change operating mode pipe outlet fluid flow, and design pipe downstream slug catcher size according to the changing value (Q2-Q1) and transformation period (t2-t1) exporting accumulative 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 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 at Low flow rate, in pipe, dispersed phase holdup reduces to increase along with throughput rate, finally can cannot carry and causes gas well to be closed down by pipeline, therefore need to increase pipeline throughput rate to maintain normal conveying.As shown in Figure 1, normal conveying 2 Cemented filling directions are underwater well head to downstream platform, when pipeline 1 needs circulation tonifying Qi, valve 2 is closed, valve 3 is opened, pipeline 1 and pipeline 2 are formed circulation loop, and after downstream platform supercharging, gas enters as pipeline 1 tonifying Qi from pipeline 2 platform end, maintains pipeline 1 and normally carries.
Circulation pigging mode requires that spherical pig transmitterreceiver appliance is all arranged on pipe downstream platform, with circulation tonifying Qi conveying operating mode during pigging, 2 pipelines are formed circulation loop, the operation of transmitting-receiving ball is realized at platform, pipeline of wherein serving a ball needs forward stopping transportation, utilize platform pressurization gas to promote the reverse pigging of spherical pig, receive bulb road and can maintain normal conveying, utilize and produce fluid forward pigging.
The design method above-mentioned according to the present invention, carries out the simulation of various operating mode, can guarantee Cemented filling safety, determines the reasonable size of upstream device facility, reduces the investment of deep water hydrocarbon field exploitation, reduces exploitation threshold, ensures the safety of oil-gas field development.
