Abstract
Counter effecting of local corona discharges by inside metallization of ceramic penetrator for high pressures, high temperatures and high electric voltages.
Description
- The present invention relates to a method for reducing local corona discharges in a penetrator for feeding electricity through a wall in a pressure vessel or a pressurized pipe.
- Earlier subsea facilities for the production of oil and gas involved locating complex technology close to a permanent or fixed oil or gas field installation, the permanent or fixed installation typically being a platform construction made from steel or concrete. At greater water depths, permanent or fixed platform installations tend to become unreasonably costly. Floating installations are not sensitive to water depth to the same degree, although, as floating installations tend to move along with sea motion, they require more complex riser systems in order first to get the well stream on board and then again to have it exported. A complicating factor being that the unprocessed well stream cannot be transported directly in long pipelines. Furthermore, the pressure drop from the sea bed and up to the surface reduces the productivity of the well with the consequence that considerable quantities of oil and gas remain unextracted in the reservoir.
- The well stream is advantageously processed to separate the well stream into oil and gas at the bottom of the sea, on the subsea field. Thereby the oil and gas fraction are ready to be pumped directly to the receiver. This requires subsea operation of pumps and compressors, which typically include electrically driven rotating machines. Operation of this type of electrically driven rotating machines require supply of considerable electrical power, necessitating high voltage transmission of electrical power over electrical installations that cannot be in direct contact with surrounding sea water. They need to be located in special chambers that also need to withstand substantial pressures. From this comes the need for a device for feeding high voltage electrical power through one or more subsea pressure barriers. Such a device is often called a “penetrator”.
- An important property of a penetrator is that it does not cause corona discharges, frequently referred to as “CD”, from the English trade term “partial discharge”. Penetrators for subsea applications may advantageously be made from a central copper conductor which is metallic connected with a ceramic hollow cylinder, as disclosed in Norwegian patent application (20111094).
- Absence of PD is most important for the parts of an electric power supply that are insulated by polymers such as cross polymerized polyethyls, commonly designated PEX. This material will be broken down by discharges, leading to loss of insulating properties and short circuits. The penetrator itself, to the extent that it consist of only metals and ceramics is insensitive to PD, but it is advantageous that it does not exhibit PD because eventual PD in the penetrator will complicate detection of PD in other parts of the system.
- The relative permittivity, also referred to as the dielectric constant, for ceramics is very large. This leads to large potential leap at those parts of the surface of the penetrator that are located close to the central conductor. In order to reduce PD, it is advantageous that such potential leaps do not lie on the surface of the ceramics. This can be achieved by metallizing the affected surfaces. These surfaces will generally be located on the inner diameter of the central bore of the ceramics. This bore can be called the inward cylindrical cavity.
- The present invention consist of a method for reducing partial corona discharges by metallizing inward surfaces in subsea high voltage penetrators for thereby to improve exploitation of insulating capability and rupture strength in modern high performance ceramics in combination with technologies for metallic bonding in such penetrators.

The outer diameter transition or step 12 of the tube is more clearly shown in the side view illustration of the tube 1 inFIG. 7 . Thereference 22 inFIG. 7 has been included only to indicate the location of an opening in theend part 23A formed by the section of thelumen 10 having the larger inner diameter. - As illustrated in the expanded detail view of
FIG. 5 , it is contemplated that in an embodiment, the apparatus of the invention comprises an electrically conducting means 21, being arranged in aspace 20 between said conductor and said layer of a first electrically conducting material carried on a surface of thelumen 10, for establishing an electrically conducting path between said conductor and said layer of a first electrically conducting material. The electrically conducting means 20 could be provided alone, or in combination with an electrically conducting third attachment sleeve for establishing an electrically conducting path between the conductor and the layer of a first electrically conducting material. - In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the third attachment sleeve comprises a first electrically conducting material. In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the first electrically conducting material comprised in said third attachment sleeve 3 is adapted to provide an electrically conducting path between said conductor and said layer of an electrically conducting material, thereby bringing an electrical potential of the layer of an electrically conducting material towards an electrical potential of the conductor.
- In an advantageous embodiment of the electrical feed-through apparatus of the invention, a diameter of a part of the conductor being positioned within said lumen is smaller than a diameter of said lumen so as to provide a
gap 20 between an outer surface of the conductor and an inward surface of said lumen, as illustrated in the enlarged cross section detail ofFIG. 5 . - In an advantageous embodiment of the electrical feed-through apparatus of the invention, said layer said layer of a first electrically conducting material is a layer of metal or a layer of a semiconducting material, applied to the entire inward surface of the lumen.
- According to a further aspect of the invention, said layer said layer of a first electrically conducting material is applied to a longitudinal portion of the inward surface of the lumen, the longitudinal portion extending axially between about the points of attachment to the tube 1 of the first and second attachment sleeves 4, respectively, or the longitudinal portion extending axially beyond the points of attachment to the tube 1 of the first and second attachment sleeves 4 but not entirely to ends 23A, 23B of the tube 1.
- In an advantageous embodiment of the electrical feed-through apparatus of the invention, said electrically conducting means is constituted by said third attachment sleeve comprising a second electrically conducting material.
- In an advantageous embodiment of the electrical feed-through apparatus of the invention, said electrically conducting means is constituted by a resilient
electrical conductor 20 positioned in a gap between an outer surface of the conductor and an inward surface of said lumen. The resilient electrical conductor could e.g. be placed or wrapped around the conductor to form a ring connecting the electrical conductor to the conducting layer on their circumferences, or be located so as to form a longitudinal connection between surfaces of the electrical conductor and the conducting layer. - The conducting layer is advantageously a layer of metal which has been applied to the surface by a method of vapor deposition, chemical deposition, electrolytic deposition, sputtering, or spraying.
