Problems solved by technology

For the single-pipe unheated gathering and transportation process, the pipeline is generally dredged by regularly dropping rubber wax-removing balls; for pipelines with high viscosity of crude oil, serious wax deposition and fouling, the return pressure of the pipeline will easily increase due to the use of rubber wax-removing balls Or blockage, which seriously affects the safety of the gathering and transportation pipeline. Therefore, it is impossible to solve the problem of dredging the pipeline by throwing wax balls regularly
[0004] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventor found that the prior art has at least the following problems: the current single-pipe does not heat the gathering and transportation process, and relies on the addition of rubber wax removal balls to the pipeline for wax removal. The ball can not achieve the purpose of dredging the pipeline, and it is easy to cause pipeline blockage. For pipelines with severe scaling, it can only be solved by physical descaling or replacement of pipelines. For pipelines with serious wax deposition, hot wax cleaning vehicles are used to clean and wax the pipeline. The cost is high, the workload is heavy, and the ball throwing device installed in the well group is idle

Embodiment 1-4

[0030] Adopt the formula ratio as shown in table 1 to manufacture TT-166 soluble anti-wax anti-fouling ball, wherein TT-166 is the inventor's own numbering to anti-wax anti-fouling ball, those skilled in the art can also adopt any other numbers. The preparation of TT-166 soluble anti-wax and anti-fouling balls is carried out according to the following steps.

[0031] 1. React in a high-temperature, high-pressure reactor at a constant temperature of 90°C for 3 hours to prepare a liquid mixed wax and scale inhibitor, neutralize and cool to room temperature to obtain wax and scale inhibitor crystals.

[0032] 2. After being dehydrated by a centrifuge, dried by a vacuum dryer, and pulverized by a pulverizer, it is ready for use.

[0033] 3. The binder will be mixed with the crushed anti-scaling agent crystal, heated and extruded to form a regular spherical body, and cooled to obtain TT-166 soluble anti-wax and anti-scaling ball.

Embodiment 5-7

[0061] Examples 5-7 are the same as the method for preparing the anti-wax and anti-fouling balls described in Example 1, except for the compounding ratio. The specific compounding ratio is shown in Table 5-6.

Abstract

A soluble antiscale wax control ball is disclosed. The soluble antiscale wax control ball comprises surfactants, wax cleaning agents and an antiscale agent RX-613. The surfactants comprise sodium alkylbenzenethiosulphonate, Ninol and polyoxyethylene alkyl ether. The wax cleaning agents comprise ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and polyethylene. The soluble antiscale wax control ball is advantaged by being soluble and having functions of preventing scaling and wax precipitation of pipelines, being capable of not blocking pipelines, and the like. The soluble antiscale wax control ball can dissolve old scale into crude oil and can prevent crude oil components from scaling onto walls of pipelines, and therefore problems of mechanical wax-cleaning antiscale balls at present, such as pipeline blockage and high running costs, which are caused by pipeline transfiguration, and the like are overcome. Experiment research shows that the soluble antiscale wax control ball can achieve wax-cleaning effects of rubber balls in site and has multiple functions comprising chemical wax cleaning and scale prevention, the comprehensive wax cleaning rate is 85.2%, and the antiscale rate is 82.18%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a soluble anti-scaling and anti-wax ball. Background technique [0002] Petroleum, also known as crude oil, is a viscous, dark brown liquid composed of different hydrocarbons and contains the hydrocarbon paraffin. In the process of crude oil production and pipeline transportation, with the decrease of pressure and temperature and the continuous overflow of light components, the wax in condensable crude oil begins to crystallize and precipitate, and continuously deposits in the pipe wall, which affects the pipeline transportation efficiency and seriously It will block the pipeline and stop the delivery. Therefore, it is necessary to invest a large amount of expenses every year for wax removal, and vigorously develop oilfield wax removal and prevention technology. [0003] Oilfield wax removal technology has always been valued by oil producers all over the world, and various wax removal technologies such as machinery, heat, and...
