Definitions
- the device comprises a combustible mixture supply system, including an inlet for gas from the low-pressure s eparator into the atmospheric air supply pipe, an injection inlet for gas from the high-pressure separator at the mixer head, a combustion chamber fitted with a burner allowing a high heat flow density to be achieved, and a system to collect and discharge burnt gas into the atmosphere.
- a combustible mixture supply system including an inlet for gas from the low-pressure s eparator into the atmospheric air supply pipe, an injection inlet for gas from the high-pressure separator at the mixer head, a combustion chamber fitted with a burner allowing a high heat flow density to be achieved, and a system to collect and discharge burnt gas into the atmosphere.
- This device is particularly suitable for the combustion of the gases accompanying liquid hydrocarbons in oil fields at sea.
- the volumes of gas involved can amount to several hundred thousand cubic meters daily. Volumes of several tens of thousands of cubic meters can be burned by means of flares on the production platforms. For larger amounts, the heat discharged becomes intense, and variations in wind direction can endanger production installations and workers. The flare then has to be installed some distance from the production platform, which means that a support structure has to be built, usually another platform, the cost of which increases very quickly where the water is deep.
- the gas When the gas cannot be reused on the field, or collected and dispatched, it is at present generally injected into the sea, in the hope that it will be dispersed more effectively than by being simply discharged into the atmosphere, and also that it will be dissolved to some extent by the seawater. In fact, the process is a dangerous one, leading in calm weather to the possible formation of blankets of an explosive gaseous mixture; it also pollutes the sea.
- Another method consists of diluting the gas in air, using a mixing appliance, so that the mixture finally discharged into the atmosphere is non-combustible, remaining below the level of flammability.
- This new industrial combustion installation used particularly to eliminate gas discharges from hydrocarbon production wells, with its ancillary oil and gas separation appliances, comprising air and gas supply pipes,
- -bustionchamber and atleast one combustible mixture feed chamber communicating with each other by means of apertures or slits, and at least one burnerfeed pipe, leading to the open air and comprising a mixing zone, consisting of a divergent passage possibly preceded by a convergent passage, in the inlet of which isplaced one discharge passage leading to the open air, and means of adjusting the flow of combustible gas and air.
- the walls of the feed chamber, extending from the feed pipe consist of assembled slabs of refractory material, the consecutive adjoining edges of which form the burner slits.
- the burner feed chamber is a tube extending from the feed pipe, and containing perforations which form the burner apertures.
- the feed chamber is divided into two or more sections by metal partitions, starting from openings through which the sections communicate with one another, with a screen to prevent any flashback, near the burner openings; in the second system, pipes containing a fluid are fitted against the inside wall of the tubular burner, with a screen to prevent any flashback, near the burner openings.
- the feed pipe opens into a feed chamber, the side walls of which consist of pipes containing circulating fluid, placed in a cylindrical form, close enough together for the spaces between adjoining pipes to form the burner slits.
- the pipes containing the circulating liquid are preferably circular in crosssection.
- the cooling fluid is preferably the liquid in which the burner is submerged, and it circulates by convection in the pipes, which cross the combustion chamber from side to side and are open at the ends.
- means of adjusting the air supply consist of remote-controlled lengthwise movement of the combustible gas pressure injector or injectors.
- a passage conveying the low-pressure gas coming mainly from the low-pressure separators opens into the feed pipe, above the injector for gas from the high-pressure separators.
- the injector or injectors of combustible gas from a pressure source are cylindrical in cross-section.
- the injector or injectors of combustible gas coming from a pressure source are convergentdivergent in cross section.

- FIG. 1 shows a hydrocarbon production platform 1 installed at sea or in a lake or pond. Beside the wellheads and collection installation (not shown here) is the processing equipment, comprising a high-pressure separator 2, with high-pressure gas outlet 3 and an outlet for incompletely degassed oil 4, and a low-pressure separator 5, with a low-pressure gas outlet 6, and a storage oil outlet 7.
- a high-pressure separator 2 with high-pressure gas outlet 3 and an outlet for incompletely degassed oil 4
- a low-pressure separator 5 with a low-pressure gas outlet 6, and a storage oil outlet 7.
- the submerged combustion installation is fixed to one supporting leg 8 of the platform. There is an approximately vertical supply pipe 9, leading to the open air through an aperture 10.
- a duct 11 feeding in air supplied by an auxiliary starting blower 12 opens into this pipe, a short distance below the aperture further down is a passage 13 conveying gas from the low-pressure separator.
- a mixing zone 14 comprising two passages, a converging one 15, followed by a diverging one'l6.
- a nozzle 17 At the inlet, and aligned with the convergent passage, is a nozzle 17 to which the gas from the high-pressure separator is injected; the position of this injector can be adjusted sideways, depending on the axis of the pipe.
- the feed pipe 9 opens at the bottom into a feed chamber 18 for the burner 19.
- This burner also comprises a combustion chamber 20, alongside the feed chamber, from which it is separated by a partition 21 containing a number of apertures 22.
- the combustion chamber is connected by a set of collection passages (not shown here) to a pipe 23 discharging burnt gas into the atmosphere.
- FIG. 2- shows the operating diagram for the gasburning installation used in testing a well 1 or set of wells, or during production.
- the same references are used as for the different parts of FIG. 1.
- burners for gases of different compositions and different operating conditions, depending on whether the water is fresh or saline, how calm it is, and whether it is naturally replaced. All these burners are variations on the one described in connection with FIG. 1, as consisting of a feed chamber and combustion chamber, communicating with each other by means of a number of slits or apertures.
- FIGS. 3, 4, 5 and 6 show various embodiments in which the burner comprises an outside casing 30, usually in the form of a conical segment between two slightly curved ends.
- the upper end which is larger in diameter than the lower one, comprises an axial opening 31 connected to the feed 'pipe, and a number of openings 32 through which the burnt gas leaves, ar-
- the separation between the feed and combustion chambers consists of a cylinder on the same axis as the outside casing of the burner. formed by an assembly of refractory slabs 27, the edges 33 of which are combined in pairs, to form the burner slits 34. These slabs are joined to the upper and lower ends of the casing.
- the separation between the feed and combustion chambers consists of a tube 27, on the same axis as the outside casing of the burner, and joined to its upper and lower ends.
- This tube contains distributed perforations 35, forming combustion apertures.
- a screen 36 to prevent flashback is placed near the burner openings.
- the feed chamber is divided into several sections by metal partitions 37, containing openings 38 which provide communication between the sections.
- FIGS. 5 and 5a showing lengthwise and cross sections, parallel pipes 39, distributed uniformly against the inside wall of the tube 27, pass through the end walls of the feed chamber, and are open at each end, outside the chamber;
- FIGS. 6 and 6a again showing lengthwise and cross sections, the separation between the feed and combustion chambers is provided by a cylindrical cage 27, the bars of which consist of a number of parallel pipes 39, passing through the upper and lower ends of the outside casing 30 and open at each end. They are fixed hermetically to the outside casing. These pipes are close enough together for the spaces between them to provide combustion slits.
- This embodiment is particularly suitable for use in installations in which flow rates may vary considerably, since the width of the zone, in which the flames form varies depending on the amount of gas.
- the cage is made up of pipes with circular cross sections, but other sections can be chosen, depending on the specific problem involved.
- Such arrangements allow a'ratio of maximum capacity to minimum capacity of more than 10.
- combustion chamber or chambers occupy the space surrounding the feed chamber.
- The' outer casing of the burner is the cover of the combustion chamber or chambers, and this outside casing is usually equipped with cooling fins (not shown here).
- the combustion chamber can be fitted with radiating bars, not shown here. Such bars are particularly useful in the case of gasescontaining a high percentage of methane and a very small amount of heavy products.
- combustion chambers in the different types of burners described above can be 'fitted with cooling pipes through which the liquid in which the installation is submerged circulates by convection; these are not shown here. 5
- the device requires no extra energy while functioning, since the volumes of air needed for perfect combustion are sucked in by atmospheric induction.
- An auxiliary blower of 10 or so kilowatts, is pro-
- the capacity of any given size of burner can be in creased, by replacing the standard cylindrical nozzle of the pressure gas injector at the mixing chamber inlet with a converging-diverging nozzle.
- a heat-recovery device can be attached to the various installations involving the types of burners described above, or variants on them. This device is fixed to the burnt gas discharge pipe.
