Problems solved by technology

At present, domestic research on in-situ flow rate online measurement devices for submarine cold seep natural gas seepage has been carried out. Our country is blank in this field, but the two sets of devices successfully developed are difficult to be used for deep-sea observation due to limitations of materials and components, and the error of flow measurement results is relatively large

Abstract

The present invention relates to the technical field of seabed measurement, and more specifically, to a seabed hydrocarbon natural gas flow measurement apparatus, system, and method. The apparatus comprises a gas collecting chamber connected to a bubble collection apparatus, a valve disposed in communication with the gas collecting chamber, and a first liquid level electrode, a second liquid levelelectrode, and a valve that are used to indicate a liquid level variation. The first liquid level electrode is disposed on the top of the gas collecting chamber, and the second liquid level electrodeis disposed on the bottom of the gas collecting chamber. According to the seabed hydrocarbon natural gas flow measurement apparatus, natural gas leaking upwards enters into the gas collecting chamberwith a quantitative volume by using the bubble collection apparatus, sea water in the gas collecting chamber is removed downwards, when the liquid level reaches a position of the second liquid levelelectrode, the valve is controlled to open, gas in the gas collecting chamber is evacuated, and a sea water level in the gas collecting chamber rises at the same time. A seabed hydrocarbon natural gasflow is measured by repeating this process. The apparatus can not only be used for online measurement of a shallow sea seabed gas seepage in-situ flow, but also be used for online measurement of a deep sea seabed gas seepage in-situ flow.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of seabed measurement, and more specifically, to a device, system and method for measuring flow of seabed hydrocarbon natural gas. Background technique [0002] The amount of methane released into the ocean water body and the atmosphere through the seepage of submarine cold seep natural gas every year is very alarming. The preliminary estimate is greater than 10Tg (1012g) per year, and methane is a strong greenhouse gas, and its greenhouse effect is the same as that of carbon dioxide. Such a huge amount of methane is an important factor affecting global climate change. Therefore, on-line in-situ detection of the seepage rate of submarine cold seep natural gas has important economic value and scientific significance. At present, domestic research on in-situ flow rate online measurement devices for submarine cold seep natural gas seepage has been carried out. Our country is blank in this field, but t...
