Problems solved by technology

1. Due to the large fluctuations in offshore natural gas production, there is a large loss of triethylene glycol, and the dew point of water treatment is high; 2. The dehydration balance of the tower equipment is low, and it is difficult to meet the dew point requirements of the outlet gas; 3. The dehydration of the tower equipment triethylene glycol The system is relatively complicated; 4. The energy consumption of the regeneration process of triethylene glycol solution is relatively large; 5. The tower equipment occupies a large area, has low mass transfer efficiency and limited processing capacity, and its use on offshore platforms has great limitations. The large volume will increase the platform area, which will directly lead to a substantial increase in investment

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of petroleum gas treatment and processing. More specifically, it relates to a high-gravity triethylene glycol natural gas dehydration system and its technology. Background technique [0002] Natural gas usually contains water vapor when it leaves the reservoir. Water vapor easily forms hydrates when the pressure and temperature of natural gas change. The local accumulation of hydrates will limit the flow rate of natural gas in the pipeline, increase the pressure drop of the pipeline, and reduce the gas transmission volume. In severe cases, the pipeline will be blocked and the gas transmission will be interrupted. At the same time, the moisture in natural gas is also the main factor causing corrosion and damage to equipment, instruments and pipelines. The existence of water may cause hydrates to freeze and block when the temperature is low, making traces of water become ice particles and damage or breakdown ...
