Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de débouchage d'une conduite (12) de transport de fluide d'hydrocarbure, dans lequel on détecte la présence d'un bouchon (16) d'hydrate de gaz obturant la conduite, à partir de l'exploitation de valeurs de température mesurées le long de la conduite (12), on commande des moyens de chauffage (28) de la conduite de manière à faire fondre le bouchon détecté et, pendant la dissociation du bouchon, on surveille l'évolution temporelle locale de la température du fluide transporté à l'endroit du bouchon, on fournit une estimation de l'évolution temporelle de la pression interne au niveau du bouchon, à partir de ladite évolution temporelle locale de température et d'une courbe pression-température de limite de phase de l'hydrate entre un état solidifié et un état gazeux, de façon à réguler la puissance de chauffage en fonction de la pression interne estimée pendant la dissociation du bouchon.The invention relates to a method for unblocking a pipe (12) for transporting hydrocarbon fluid, in which the presence of a plug (16) of hydrate of gas closing the pipe is detected, from the exploitation of temperature values measured along the pipe (12), heating means (28) of the pipe are controlled so as to melt the detected plug and, during the dissociation of the plug, the local time evolution is monitored of the temperature of the fluid transported to the location of the plug, an estimate is given of the temporal evolution of the internal pressure at the level of the plug, from said local temporal evolution of temperature and of a limit pressure-temperature curve phase of the hydrate between a solidified state and a gaseous state, so as to regulate the heating power as a function of the internal pressure estimated during the dissociation of the plug.
