- FIG. 15 is an end view taken along lines l5-l5 of FIG. 14. I
- FIG. I mounted on an offshore oil well platform 21 surrounded by water 22.
- the apparatus is preferably pivotally connected to the floor of the platform 21 by a pin 47, most clearly shown in FIG. 6, which connects the boom generally designated by numeral 20 to the burner support generally designated by number 66.
- pin 47 By making pin 47 the only means of connection between boom 20 and support 66, boom 20 is thereby permitted to pivot about pin 47 and to be swung out of the way ehen desired, e.g., when a tugboat or tanker ties up to the platform.
- Boom 20 may be rigidly connected to platform 21 by welding boom 20 to support 66 or by any other means well known in the art, but it is highly preferred that boom 20 be pivotally connected to platform 21.
- Boom 20 has mounted at the end thereof burner 23 through which oil is forced prior to ignition.
- the longitudinal or horizontal members of the boom are preferably made up of conduits 31 and 32 which carry the oil and gaseous atomizing medium to burner 23, thereby greatly reducing the weight of boom 20 and permitting it to extend for great length, i.e., from up to about I00 feet or more over the edge of platform 21 without the necessity of support from cranes, cables, or other supporting means.
- the horizontal members may be structural steel or the equivalent conventional structural material well known in the art. Oil may be conveyed to the burner 23 by any conventional means, such as solid or flexible piping.
- Boom 20 consists of two sections designated generally by the numerals 24 and 25.
- Boom 24 will hereinafter be referred to as the upstream boom and boom 25 will hereinafter be referred to as the downstream boom.
- Upstream boom 24 is shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the upper longitudinal or horizontal support members of upstream boom 24 are pipes or conduits 32 which carry a gaseous atomizing medium to burner 23.
- the gaseous atomizing medium may comprise air, steam, natural gas, or the like, or mixtures thereof, although air is preferred.
- the lower longitudinal support members are preferably pipes or conduits 31 which carry oil to the burner 23.
- FIG. 7 is shown an end view of boom 24 where it can be seen'that two oil pipes 31-31 lay side by side at the bottom of the beam.
- Pipes 32 and 31 are connected by braces 38 which form acute angles with conduits 31 and 32, and by vertical braces 39 near the ends thereof.
- Boom 24 contains a walkway 27 on the top thereof having guard rail 29 and a hand rope 28. Directly beneath the walkway 27 are waterlines 3434 for conducting water to the vicinity of the burner.
- the burner support 66 includes three base members 68 set approximately 45 apart and securely fixed to the floor of the platform by any means well known in the art, such as welding, bolting, and the like.
- the members 68 are maintained in space relationship by braces 77.
- Extending upward from base members 68 are three vertical supports 70 and three braces 72 which extend from the ends of base members 68 at an acute angle up to the tops of vertical support 70 to which they are connected by welding, or the like.
- Two braces 76 are located between vertical support 70.
- Extending outwardly from the intersections of vertical support 70 and braces 72 are three horizontal braces 74 which are connected at their ends to sleeve bracket 50.
- Bracket 50 contains a sleeve 49 for receipt of pin 47. Directly below sleeve 49 and aligned therewith is sleeve 49a which is contained in base members 68 at their intersection for receipt of the lower end of pin 47.
- boom 20 is swung into place by a crane or similar device, holes 56, 58 and 59 are aligned with sleeves 49 and 49a, and pin 47 is inserted.
- the crane cables may then be removed and the boom will be self-supporting, even when a crew member walks out on the walkway to light the burner.
- Downstream boom 25 is shown in detail in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- Boom section 25 is similar to 24 in that oil conduits 31 from the bottom longitudinal structural members in the same manner as they do in boom 24.
- burners 2323 Located at the end of boom 25 are burners 2323.
- a front view of the burners 23 is shown in FIG. 10, and a detailed view of the burner itself is shown in FIGS. 1 1
- Burners 23--23 contain a water tube 40 in the general shape of a hexagon which surrounds the burner.
- the water tubes 40 are connected to the burners 23 by braces 41.
- the water tube 40 is connected to water conduits 34 by flexible conduits 35, shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- Water tubes 40 have nozzles 42 and 43 connected thereto for spraying water. Noxxles 42, as can be see in FIG. spray water at a right angle to the burners 23 thereby providing a shield of water which keeps a great amount of heat from flowing back to the platform.
- FIG. 8 can be seen a cross-section of the water tube 40 showing it to be hollow, and showing a nozzle 42 mounted thereon with a water passageway 42a therein.
- FIG. 9 shows a detailed view of these nozzles. It is clear from FIG. 9 that the nozzles 43 inject water in the general direction of the burners 23 and the nozzles 44 spray water backwards toward boom 25. It has been discovered that by injecting water into the flames coming from burners 23, as is done by nozzles 43, the oil is burned much more efficiently and with much less smoke. The water sprayed backwards onto the platform by nozzles 44 helps prevent any overheating of the platform which may occur in the immediate vicinity of burners 2323.
- curved oil conduits 31a-31a connect oil conduits 3131 to burners 23-23.
- Burners 23--23 can be seen in FIGS. 11 and 12 to include a relatively thick, disc-shaped plate 79, which forms the downstream end of the burner head.
- a tubular member 82 is attached to disc 79 by threads 95, or by any other conventional means.
- the upstream end 810 of the tubular member 81 is connected to gaseous atomizing medium conduit 32 by welding or any other means well known in the art.
- a sleeve 83 embraces conduit 32 and joins the peripheral portion of plate 79.
- Plate 79 is held against sleeve 83 by nut 98 which is attached to sleeve 83 by threads 97.
- the upstream end portion of sleeve 83 joins the perimeter of conduit 32, as indicated at 85.
- Sleeve 83 is of greater diameter than tubular members 81 and conduit 32, and an annular space 87 is provided around the periphery of tubular member 81 and conduit 32.
- Conduit 31a is connected to sleeve 83 for the purpose of admitting crude oil to the annular space 87.
- a plurality of ports 89 are formed in the plate 79 through which the gaseous atomizing medium may escape.
- the openings 91 are of larger diameter than the ports 89.
- Apertures 93 which are equal in number to the discharge openings 91, provide communication between annular space 87 and discharge openings 91.
- the gaseous atomizing medium excaping through the openings 91 serves to draw oil from the annular space 87 into the respective discharge openings and to break the crude oil into small droplets and propel it through the openings 91.
- Burner 26 differs from burner 23 primarily in that water is injected into the stream of oil and gaseous atomizing medium prior to the ignition of the mixture. The introduction of water into the mixture greatly increases combustion efficiency and drastically reduces the amount of smoke produced from the burning of the crude oil. Although water is preferred, liquid oxygen, or mixtures of liquid oxygen and water, or the like, can be used.
- Burner 26 includes arelatively thick, disc-shaped plate 110 which forms the downstream end of the burner head.
- Tubular member 100 which is connected to conduit 32 by welding or the like, is threadably connected to disc 110, although tubular member 100, and the other members described hereinafter, may be connected in any suitable manner such as welding, or the like.
- a first sleeve 102 embraces the forward portion of tubular member and conduit 32.
- Sleeve 102 is threadably connected to plate 110.
- the upstream end portion of sleeve 102 joins the perimeter of tubular member 32 as indicated at 103.
- Sleeve 102 is of a greater diameter than tubular member 100 and conduit 32 and annular space 104 is provided around the periphery of tubular member 100 and conduit 32.
- Conduit 31a is connected to sleeve 102 for the purpose of admitting crude oil into the annular space 104.
- Plate is forced against second sleeve 106 by nut 119, which nut is threadably attached to sleeve 106.
- the upstream end portion of sleeve 106 joins the perimeter of first sleeve 102, as indicated at 107.
- Sleeve 106 is of greater diameter than sleeve 102 and an annular space 108 is provided around the periphery of sleeve 102.
- Conduit fitting 109 mounted on sleeve 106 is for the purpose of admitting water to the annular space 108. Waterlines (not shown) similar to waterlines 34 and 35 may be used to provide a water supply to burner 26.
- a plurality of ports 112 are formed in plate 110 through which the gaseous atomizing medium may escape. These ports 112 preferably have their axes aligned with the axes of discharge openings 114.
- the openings 1 14 are of larger diameter than the ports 1 12.
- the gaseous atomizing medium escaping through the openings 114 serves to draw oil from the annular space 104 and water from the annular space 108 into the respective discharge openings to break the crude oil and water into small droplets and propel it through the openings 114.
- FIGS. 14 and is shown another preferred embodiment of the present invention wherein a combustion furnace generally indicated by the numeral 121 is placed over burner 23 (or over burner 26) replacing water tube 40 shown in FIG. 10.
- This combustion furnace has a venturi-like effect in that air is drawn into the upstream end of furnace 121, as shown by arrows 122, to aid in the combustion of the crude oil mixture.
- This furnace has been found to greatly improve the efficiency of combustion and to greatly decrease the amount of smoke released upon combustion.
- furnace 121 is connected to burner 23 by brackets 127-l27. Brackets 127-127 are connected to the furnace 121 by braces 129.
- Furnace 121 may be moved upstream or downstream on burner 23 to achieve maximum efficiency of the burn by means of brackets 127-127.
- Furnace'l21 has a water ring 123 thereon having nozzles 125 for spraying water in a direction indicated by the arrows 130, although nozzles 125 can be oriented outwardly at a suitable angle with respect to the furnace axis so as to spray the water into a screen performing the desired protection rearwardly of the furnace 121.
- Water is supplied to water ring 123 through conduit 35.
- Oil is supplied to burner 23 (or burner 26) by conduit 31a.
- the water being sprayed from nozzles 1.25 promotes efficiency of clean combustion in the same manner as previously described.
