Problems solved by technology

[0002] The main difficulty in the development of heavy oil fields is the high viscosity of heavy oil. At present, the commonly used viscosity reduction methods are heating, thinning, or water for viscosity reduction. Thinning is an effective viscosity reduction method. However, it relies heavily on thin oil resources, and heavy oil fields often face the difficulty of insufficient thin oil resources
Catalytic cracking is a conventional crude oil processing technology, which can change the structure of crude oil and significantly reduce the viscosity of crude oil. However, because the water content of commercial crude oil in the oil field is about 0.5%-2%, the salt content cannot meet the requirements of catalytic cracking. Conditions are also unable to desalt crude oil

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a cracking and viscosity reduction method and device for gathering and transporting salt-containing heavy oil on the surface of an oil field, which solves the problems of thick oil blending and viscosity reduction gathering and transportation and unheated pipeline transportation. Background technique [0002] The main difficulty in the development of heavy oil fields is the high viscosity of heavy oil. At present, the commonly used methods of viscosity reduction are heating to reduce viscosity, mixing with dilute to reduce viscosity, or mixing with water to reduce viscosity. Mixing with dilute to reduce viscosity is an effective way to reduce viscosity. However, there is a great dependence on thin oil resources, and heavy oil fields often suffer from insufficient thin oil resources. Catalytic cracking is a conventional crude oil processing technology, which can change the structure of crude oil and significantly reduce the viscosity...
