Description

A kind of based on WX section deformation element deep water pipe-in-pipe buckle arrestor
Technical field
The invention belongs to submarine pipeline facility laying technology field, be specifically related to a kind of WX of utilization section deformation element to prevent the buckle arrestor of buckle propagation.
Background technique
Submarine pipeline is the Main Means of offshore oil and gas conveying, and under seabed particular surroundings particularly high hydrostatic pressure force environment, for a long time, buckling problem hampers the development of submarine pipeline always.
Flexing generating process can be divided into two stages: first: outer partial pressure is greater than this place's pipeline strength, makes pipeline, at this place, conquassation phenomenon occur; The second, after conquassation phenomenon locally occurs pipeline, if close vicinity tube wall strength is less than critical pressure, buckle propagation phenomenon will be there is.Research finds, maintains the pressure minimum of pipeline buckle propagation, i.e. the critical pressure of flexing, only has about 15% of the pressure minimum that buckling failure occurs.Therefore, once produce cripling unstability, flexing will be propagated from local damage position vertically with the speed of hundreds of meters, thus causes the large-scale damage of submarine pipeline, causes huge economic loss.
Two processes of corresponding buckle propagation, solving buckling problem has the following two kinds method.The first, increase pipeline wall thickness completely, general increase pipeline strength, ensure that pipeline strength is always greater than external pressure.The second, Yan Guandao arranges buckle arrestor at a certain distance, increases pipeline local strength, buckle propagation is limited between two buckle arrestors, thus the conquassation avoiding whole piece pipeline destroys.Two kinds of methods compare, and first method significantly adds steel consumption, economical not, and add the weight of pipeline simultaneously, and installing to the laying of pipeline makes troubles.Second method is using pipeline between buckle arrestor as cost, and steel consumption is significantly reduced, and pipeline weight also significantly alleviates, very economical.In addition, balanced economy and anti-bend requirement can be come by the spacing adjusting buckle arrestor, more flexibly.Therefore, buckle arrestor technology is widely used in engineering practice.
The buckle arrestor main Types of current use has integrated type, sliding, jacketed type and interior ring type.
Integrated buckle arrestor internal diameter is identical with internal diameter of the pipeline, but wall thickness is greater than pipeline wall thickness, is connected with pipeline by welding.
Sliding buckle arrestor internal diameter is identical with outer diameter tube, is enclosed within pipeline to increase the hoop rigidity of pipeline local.
Jacketed type buckle arrestor principle is similar to sliding, and it is made up of two and half shells, is fastened by bolts on pipeline outer wall during use.
Inner ring buckle arrestor is similar to sliding buckle arrestor principle, is suitable for for pipe-in-pipe.Buckle arrestor pipe ring is placed in inner and outer pipes pipe seam, and is close to outer tube.
Integrated type, buckle arrestor that is sliding and jacketed type three kinds of forms all significantly increase local caliber, and this brings inconvenience to the transport of pipeline and storage.Integrated buckle arrestor adopts the form of welding to be connected with pipeline, and easily generation weld defects and stress are concentrated.And although sliding and jacketed type does not need welding, structure is comparatively simple, and install more convenient, anti-bend efficiency is low, " U-shaped pass through " easily occurs, is thus only applicable to the dark pipeline of shallow water.
The buckle arrestor that interior ring type buckle arrestor compares above three kinds of forms does not change outer diameter tube, and anti-bend efficiency is higher, but making and installation is not too convenient, and financial cost is also higher than the buckle arrestor of above three kinds of forms.In addition, because the major component strengthened is be close to the pipe ring of outer tube, the local damage caused in process of deployment operationally can not restore.
