Reinigingsinstallatie voor het reinigen van zeer lange pijpen.Cleaning installation for cleaning very long pipes.
Inrichting voor het reinigen van pijpen van het type coiled tubing zoals gebruikt wordt in boorgaten voor olie of gas, waarbij lengten van honderden meters voorkomen. De pijpen moeten 05 gereinigd worden van aanslag, mogelijk radioactief, voordat deze op grote trommels gewikkeld worden.Device for cleaning pipes of the coiled tubing type as used in boreholes for oil or gas, where lengths of hundreds of meters occur. The pipes must be cleaned of deposits, possibly radioactive, before they are wound on large drums.
Coiled tubing is buis welke vervaardigd is van een strip koolstofstaal welke tot een buis gevormd wordt en over de lengte gelast wordt. De buis wordt in grote lengten (tot 6000 meter) op een drum gewikkeld.Coiled tubing is a tube that is made from a strip of carbon steel that is formed into a tube and welded along its length. The tube is wound in large lengths (up to 6000 meters) on a drum.
io Het is bekend om voorwerpen te reinigen met behulp van water onder hoge druk. In het algemeen wordt met een spuitlans water met een druk van meer dan 100 atmosfeer op het te reinigen voorwerp gespoten.io It is known to clean objects using high-pressure water. In general, a spray lance is used to spray water with a pressure of more than 100 atmospheres on the object to be cleaned.
Het reinigen van coiled tubing pijpen welke in boorgaten voor olie of gas gebruikt worden is moeilijk doordat de pijpdiameter relatief klein is en het feit dat deze pijpen honderden meters 15 lang zijn. Veelal zijn deze pijpen vervuild met licht radioactief materiaal. Gebleken is nu dat op de klassieke wijze gereinigde pijpen na enige tijd toch weer radioactief worden. Onderzoek wees uit dat de pijpen aan de oppervlakte microscheurtjes hebben waarin na het reinigen nog vuil achtergebleven was.Cleaning coiled tubing pipes used in boreholes for oil or gas is difficult because the pipe diameter is relatively small and the fact that these pipes are hundreds of meters long. These pipes are often contaminated with light radioactive material. It has now been found that pipes cleaned in the traditional manner become radioactive again after some time. Research has shown that the pipes on the surface have micro-cracks in which dirt was left behind after cleaning.
De uitvinding bertreft een inrichting welke de pijpen intensief reinigt en welke aangebracht kan 20 worden om de pijp in de nabijheid van het boorgat.The invention relates to a device which intensively cleans the pipes and which can be arranged around the pipe in the vicinity of the borehole.
De inrichting bestaat uit een kast welke over de lengte gedeeld is waarin verstelbare geleiderollen de pijp door een gedeelde spuitplaat leiden. De spuitplaat is voorzien van een aantal sproeiers welke verbonden zijn met een hoge druk waterpomp. De kast is voorzien van een aansluiting met een vacuumpomp.The device consists of a cabinet which is divided over the length in which adjustable guide rollers guide the pipe through a divided spray plate. The spray plate is provided with a number of nozzles which are connected to a high pressure water pump. The cabinet has a connection with a vacuum pump.
25 De sproeiers in de spuitplaat staan onder een hoek teneinde een goede reiniging te bereiken. Tijdens het proces wordt de kast in onderdruk gebracht met een pomp van grote capaciteit. De helften van de kast passen op elkaar zonder specifieke afdichting.The nozzles in the spray plate are angled in order to achieve good cleaning. During the process, the cabinet is pressurized with a large capacity pump. The halves of the cabinet fit together without specific sealing.
De uitvinding wordt aan de hand van de tekening besproken.The invention is discussed with reference to the drawing.
30 Fig. 1 toont een langsdoorsnede over de kast.FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through the cabinet.
Fig. 2 toont een doorsnede over de geleiderollen.FIG. 2 shows a section through the guide rollers.
Fig. 3 toont een doorsnede over de gedeelde spuitplaat.FIG. 3 shows a section through the divided spray plate.
In fig.1 is (1) de te reinigen coiled tubing. Coiled tubing (1) wordt geleid door dubbel conische 35 geleiderollen (2) welke met verstelmechanisme (3) ingesteld kunnen worden op de diameter van coiled tubing. In de zijwand (4) van kast (5) zijn halve kunststof ringen (6) aangebracht. Kast (5) is over de lengte in tweeën gedeeld en met scharnieren (7) met elkaar verbonden. Tegenover _ 1017357 -2- scharnieren (7) zijn niet getekende sluitingen aangebracht. Bij (8) is een vacuum aansluiting voor een vacuumpomp met grote capaciteit aangebracht.In Fig. 1 (1) is the coiled tubing to be cleaned. Coiled tubing (1) is guided by double conical guide rollers (2) which can be adjusted with the adjusting mechanism (3) to the diameter of coiled tubing. Half plastic rings (6) are provided in the side wall (4) of the cabinet (5). Case (5) is divided in two along its length and connected to each other with hinges (7). Opposite hinges (7) are arranged closures (not shown). At (8) a vacuum connection is provided for a vacuum pump with a large capacity.
In het midden van kast (5) is een gedeelde spuitplaat (9) aangebracht waarin zich sproeiers (10) bevinden met nozzles (11) welke een plat sproeibeeld geven. Het aantal sproeiers (10) is 05 afhankelijk van de maximum diameter van de te reinigen coiled tubing. De sproeiers zijn met kanalen (12) verbonden met de hogedruk water aansluiting (13).A divided spray plate (9) is arranged in the middle of the cabinet (5) in which there are nozzles (10) with nozzles (11) which give a flat spray pattern. The number of nozzles (10) is 05 depending on the maximum diameter of the coiled tubing to be cleaned. The nozzles are connected with channels (12) to the high pressure water connection (13).
De hartlijn van sproeiers (10) in spuitplaat (9) staat onder een hoek (14) tussen 85 en 65 graden ten opzichte van de hartlijn van coiled tubing (1).The center line of nozzles (10) in spray plate (9) is at an angle (14) between 85 and 65 degrees with respect to the center line of coiled tubing (1).
Kast (5) is niet voorzien van speciale afdichting op de deelvlakken. Ook zijn geen speciale 10 afdichtingen bij het verstelmechanisme (3) aanwezig. De kunststof halve ringen (6) hebben een ruime passing om coiled tubing (1). De lekkage door de spleten veroorzaakt in combinatie met het vacuum een mime ventilatie in kast (5).Case (5) is not provided with a special seal on the partial surfaces. Neither are there any special seals at the adjusting mechanism (3). The plastic half-rings (6) have a wide fit around coiled tubing (1). The leakage through the cracks in combination with the vacuum causes a mime ventilation in the cabinet (5).
De inrichting wordt gebruikt wanneer een coiled tubing uit een boorgat getrokken wordt en opgerold op een drum. De inrichting is draagbaar en kan in geopende toestand om coiled tubing 15 (1) aangebracht worden. Na sluiting van de inrichting worden de vacuumpomp en de hogedruk waterleidingen aangesloten. De waterdruk is tussen 1800 en 3300 bar en het vacuum wordt op minder dan 0,1 bar absoluut gehouden. De temperatuur van de vloeistof is tussen 80 en 100 graden Celcius wanneer de straal de coiled tubing (1) raakt. In de inrichting is een sensor aanwezig welke de onderdruk meet en signaleert wanneer deze boven 0,1 bar absoluut uitkomt 20 en de reinigings operatie gestopt wordt. In de inrichting is een voorziening welke signaleert wanneer coiled tubing (1) tot stilstand komt.The device is used when a coiled tubing is pulled out of a borehole and rolled up on a drum. The device is portable and can be arranged around coiled tubing (1) in the open position. After the device has been closed, the vacuum pump and the high-pressure water pipes are connected. The water pressure is between 1800 and 3300 bar and the vacuum is kept at less than 0.1 bar absolute. The temperature of the liquid is between 80 and 100 degrees Celsius when the jet hits the coiled tubing (1). A sensor is present in the device which measures and signals the underpressure when it exceeds 0.1 bar absolute and the cleaning operation is stopped. There is a device in the device that signals when coiled tubing (1) comes to a halt.
De inrichting wordt zo dicht mogelijk boven het boorgat aangebracht en in bedrijf gesteld terwijl coiled tubing (1) op een drum gewikkeld wordt.The device is placed as close as possible above the borehole and put into operation while coiled tubing (1) is wound on a drum.
25 Gebleken is dat de combinatie van vacuum en het sproeien onder een hoek van bij voorkeur 75 graden ten opzichte van de hartlijn van coiled tubing (1) en een temperatuur tussen 80 en 100 graden Celcius met een constante lekkage langs de deelvlakken en halve ringen (6) een bijzonder goed effect heeft waarbij vrijwel alle radioactieve contaminatie verdwenen is.It has been found that the combination of vacuum and spraying at an angle of preferably 75 degrees with respect to the center line of coiled tubing (1) and a temperature between 80 and 100 degrees Celsius with a constant leakage along the partial surfaces and half rings ( 6) has a particularly good effect whereby almost all radioactive contamination has disappeared.
Tussen de inrichting en de vacuumpomp is een waterafscheider welke water en vuil opvangt. In 30 sommige gevallen is het mogelijk een deel van het opgevangen water na scheiding te gebruiken voor de hogedrukpomp.Between the device and the vacuum pump is a water separator that collects water and dirt. In some cases it is possible to use part of the collected water after separation for the high-pressure pump.
