本発明は、海底パイプラインの漏洩事故発生時
に漏洩油量を制限する海底パイプラインの緊急漏
洩油量制限装置に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an emergency leakage oil amount limiting device for a submarine pipeline that limits the amount of leaked oil when a leakage accident occurs in a submarine pipeline.
長距離の海底パイプラインにおいて漏洩事故が
起こつた場合は、管に入つている油量が多大であ

るといる問題があつた。
In the event of a leakage accident in a long-distance submarine pipeline, the amount of oil contained in the pipe is large, so simply closing the pipe on land or at sea will cause the exchange of seawater and oil due to the difference in specific gravity. There was a problem that a large amount of oil leaked, significantly damaging the surrounding environment.
このような事から石油の漏洩量を最小限におさ

た。 For this reason, in order to minimize the amount of oil leakage, 200~
It is possible to install emergency shutoff valves in the same way as those installed at 1000 m pitches, but since the environment and construction methods for submarine pipelines are significantly different from those for onshore pipelines, it is not recommended to install emergency shutoff valves as described above. I couldn't do it. In other words, movable parts on the seabed may malfunction due to attached organisms, and movable parts that are operated by hydraulic pressure, pneumatic pressure, electric power, etc. (on the seabed, they must be operated by remote control, so power is essential. ) It was necessary to pull the power source to the position of the shutoff valve, but this was difficult in construction.
以上のように海底パイプラインにおいては適当

立が望まれていた。なお、ここで問題にしている
漏洩とは微量ではなく、鋼管の切断等による多量

As mentioned above, there is no suitable method for limiting the amount of emergency oil leakage in submarine pipelines, and it has been desired to establish one as soon as possible. Note that the leaks in question here are not trace amounts, but only large amounts caused by cutting steel pipes, etc.
本発明は、このような状況に鑑みてなされたも

にした装置を得ることを目的とするものである。 The present invention has been developed in view of this situation, and aims to limit the amount of leaked oil by blowing up a submarine pipeline in the event of a leakage accident and deforming the pipe to reduce its cross-sectional area. The purpose is to obtain a device that makes it possible to

A leakage oil amount limiting device for a submarine pipeline according to the present invention includes a steel casing that is watertightly attached to the outer peripheral wall of a steel pipe, an explosive filled in the steel casing, and an explosive that is attached to the upper surface of the steel casing. The device is equipped with an ultrasonic receiver fuze that detonates the gunpowder using an ultrasonic signal of a specific frequency and pattern, and a sacrificial anode connected to the ultrasonic receiver fuze.
本発明においては、犠牲陽極が電気防食的作動

In the present invention, the sacrificial anode functions as a power source for the ultrasonic receiver fuze by sacrificial operation.
そして、超音波受信信管は上記の超音波信号を

管の断面積は正常時(円形)に比べて小さくなつ
て、そこから外部へ漏洩する油量も少なくなる。 When the ultrasonic receiving fuse receives the ultrasonic signal, it detonates the gunpowder. As a result, the steel pipe is blown up and its shape becomes deformed, the cross-sectional area of the steel pipe becomes smaller than when it is normal (circular), and the amount of oil leaking from there to the outside is also reduced.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
In the drawing, 1 is the steel pipe of the submarine pipeline, 2 is the sea surface,
3 is a patrol boat, and 4 is an ultrasonic transmitter. 5 is an ultrasonic receiving fuse, 6 is gunpowder, 7 is a steel casing, 8 is a sacrificial anode, and 9 is a lead wire.
The steel casing 7 is attached to the steel pipe 1 in a watertight manner, and the inside thereof is filled with gunpowder 6. Further, an ultrasonic receiving fuse 5 is attached to the upper surface of the steel casing 7, and is connected to a sacrificial anode plate 8 via a lead wire 9.

ておく必要がある。 When an ultrasonic signal of a specific frequency and pattern is transmitted from an ultrasonic transmitter 4 attached to the patrol boat 3, an ultrasonic receiving fuse 5 attached to the upper surface of the steel casing 7 is activated. This fuse 5
When activated, the gunpowder 6 explodes, and the steel pipe 1 is crushed and deformed by the explosive force. When the steel pipe 1 is crushed, it does not cut off the line, but the circular cross section before the blasting is deformed, so at least the area becomes smaller than the circular cross section. Therefore, the amount of leakage will be less than before the explosion. This has been confirmed through experiments to be sufficiently effective. Note that the operating power for the ultrasonic receiving fuse 5 is supplied by the sacrificial anode 8 operated for electrolytic protection. Furthermore, in order to prevent malfunctions, it is necessary to appropriately select the frequency of the ultrasonic waves emitted by the ultrasonic transmitter 4 and to specify the pattern in advance.

After that, go to the steel casings 7 on both sides near the leakage point by patrol boat 3 or helicopter, transmit a predetermined ultrasonic signal from the ultrasonic transmitter 4 at the site, and as described above, the steel pipe 1 of the submarine pipeline is Explode.
