Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of adding chemicals to natural gas pipelines and gas wells, and in particular to a gas field adding chemical system and method capable of calibrating the amount of added chemical on site, which can be applied to gas wells and natural gas pipelines that require the addition of chemical agents. Background Art
[0002] In order to ensure the normal production and operation of natural gas channels such as gas wells, natural gas pipelines and their pipe fittings and instruments (collectively referred to as natural gas flow channels), it is usually necessary to add functional chemicals (also known as reagents) that are liquid at normal temperature and pressure into the natural gas flow channels, collectively referred to as dosing.
[0003] When adding medicine, it is generally necessary to control, adjust and measure the dosage of the medicine (i.e. the amount of medicine added) or the flow rate of the medicine (i.e. the flow rate of the medicine added).
[0004] At present, the domestic main method is to use metering pumps to control, adjust and measure the dosage or flow rate of the medicine. This method has the following defects:
[0005] 1. This method cannot accurately control, adjust, and measure the dosing flow rate, but can only roughly control, adjust, and measure the dosing flow rate.
[0006] It is known from common knowledge in the art that a metering pump uses a cam mechanism to control the length of the plunger stroke to control the percentage of the rated displacement (or theoretical displacement) of the metering pump, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the displacement of the metering pump; for example, if the rated displacement of the metering pump is 60 liters / hour, the displacement of the metering pump can be adjusted to 50% of the rated displacement by using its cam mechanism to control the plunger stroke at 50% of the maximum stroke, thereby adjusting the displacement of the metering pump to 30 liters / hour; since the metering pump itself does not have a flow meter, its plunger has leakage and the leakage will increase with the continuous wear of the plunger sealing box and the continuous wear of the discharge valve and the inlet valve, so it is impossible to accurately control, adjust, and meter the dosing flow rate using a metering pump.
[0007] 2. This method cannot effectively control, adjust, and measure the dosing flow rate of a 1-pump multi-tube dosing system, cannot solve the dosing flow deviation problem of a 1-pump multi-tube dosing system, and cannot meet the dosing flow control, adjustment, and metering requirements of this type of dosing system.
[0008] Take the Qinghai gas field as an example.
[0009] The gas field uses high-pressure gas lift production technology. Generally, 2 to 50 high-pressure natural gas injection pipelines are set up in one gas distribution valve group to distribute 10MPa high-pressure natural gas to the casings of 2 to 50 gas wells for gas lift production.
[0010] Take the gas distribution valve group with three high-pressure natural gas injection pipelines in the gas field as an example.Figure 1 As shown, the process can be briefly described as follows: the gas distribution valve group is provided with gas injection pipeline 110, gas injection pipeline 111, and gas injection pipeline 112, and 10MPa natural gas is distributed to three gas wells respectively; in order to prevent the formation of hydrate blockage in the gas injection pipeline 110, gas injection pipeline 111, and gas injection pipeline 112, methanol is respectively injected into the gas injection pipeline 110, gas injection pipeline 111, and gas injection pipeline 112 by a metering pump 102 to prevent freezing and unblocking, and the flow rate of the injected methanol is adjusted, controlled, and metered at any time according to the constantly changing gas injection volume of the gas injection pipeline 110, gas injection pipeline 111, and gas injection pipeline 112 and different anti-freezing and unblocking requirements; The process of adding methanol can be further summarized as follows: 30 to 60 liters / day (or 1.25 to 2.5 liters / hour) of methanol is sucked into the metering pump 102 through the pump inlet pipeline 101, and then 30 to 60 liters / day (or 1.25 to 2.5 liters / hour) of methanol is distributed to the dosing pipe 107, the dosing pipe 108, and the dosing pipe 109 through the manifold 103, and the methanol injection flow rate of the dosing pipe 107 is controlled and adjusted by the valve 104, the methanol injection flow rate of the dosing pipe 108 is controlled and adjusted by the valve 106, and the methanol injection flow rate of the dosing pipe 107 is controlled and adjusted by the valve 105, and the methanol injection flow rate of the dosing pipe 108 is controlled and adjusted by the valve 106 according to the freezing and blocking conditions of the gas injection pipeline 110, the gas injection pipeline 111, and the gas injection pipeline 112. 109 of methanol filling flow; thus, it can be known that although the dosing system of the gas distribution valve group can determine the total methanol flow of the manifold 103 to be 30 to 60 liters / day (or 1.25 to 2.5 liters / hour) through the displacement of the metering pump 102, it is unable to determine the methanol flow of each of the dosing pipes 107, 108, and 109, and therefore it is unable to use valves 104, 105, and 106 to control and adjust the methanol flow of the dosing pipes 107, 108, and 109 to the methanol flow required for antifreeze and unblocking of the gas injection lines 110, 111, and 112; the production of the gas distribution valve group The operation status shows that during the winter period from December to March, the operators can only rely on their personal feelings to adjust the opening of valves 104, 105, and 106 to control the methanol flow entering gas injection pipelines 110, 111, and 112. They are unable to determine the specific methanol flow values and the degree of deviation in gas injection pipelines 110, 111, and 112, and are even more unable to adjust and solve the existing methanol deviation problem, which leads to frequent freezing and blockage of one or two gas injection pipelines, seriously affecting the production of gas wells. Therefore, the current 1-pump multi-tube dosing system cannot meet the production requirements of the Qinghai gas field.
[0011] At present, the flow meter is generally used to measure the liquid flow in China, such as using a gear flow meter to measure the instantaneous water flow and cumulative water flow in the water pipe; this method is used to measure the dosage or flow of the agent, which has the following defects:
[0012] 1. Gear flowmeter has leakage. When the dosing flow is small and the viscosity of the agent is low, the metering error caused by the leakage can reach 57%, which is hundreds of times the metering error of the gear flowmeter calibrated at the factory. It is difficult to effectively measure the dosing flow and cannot meet the actual production requirements.
[0013] It is known from common knowledge in the art that the viscosity of different reagents varies greatly. For example, the viscosity of ethylene glycol used as a natural gas hydrate inhibitor is several times that of clean water. The viscosity of polyacrylamide aqueous solution and polyvinyl pyrrolidone aqueous solution used as natural gas hydrate inhibitors is hundreds of times that of clean water. However, the viscosity of methanol, also used as a natural gas hydrate inhibitor, is lower than that of clean water. The lower the viscosity of the reagent, the greater the leakage of the gear flowmeter and the greater its metering error.
[0014] It is known from common knowledge in this field that gear flow meters are generally used when leaving the factory. Figure 2 The calibration device shown and its measurement error when calibrated with clean water.
[0015] Tests show that: Figure 2 The calibration device and methanol shown in the figure are used to calibrate the gear flowmeter. The results show that when the pressure gauge 202 (accuracy 1.6 level) reads 0.03 MPa, the methanol outflow from the DN15 outlet 206 remains unchanged after being adjusted by the DN15 stop valve 204. If the cumulative flow of the gear flowmeter 203 (accuracy 0.5 level, range 0.3-60 liters / hour) in 10 minutes is 0.2 liters, then the methanol outflow taken from the outlet 206 by the glass measuring cylinder 207 is 0.46 liters. It can be seen that the leakage of the gear flowmeter 203 is 1.56 liters / hour. Further calculation shows that when the methanol flow measured by the gear flowmeter 203 is 1.2 liters / hour, the average methanol flow obtained by calibration is 2.76 liters / hour. It can be seen that when the gear flowmeter 203 measures a small flow of methanol, its measurement error can reach 57%, which is 114 times its factory calibration measurement error.
[0016] It is known from common knowledge in the art that the national standard requires that the maximum error of industrial instruments is 4%. The maximum allowable value of the measurement error of existing industrial flow meters when leaving the factory or being calibrated by an authoritative measurement agency is ±4%. When users use industrial flow meters, the maximum allowable value of the measurement error calibrated indoors is also ±4%. The dosing flow rate of gas fields is generally very small. Taking the gas distribution valve group with three gas injection pipelines in the Qinghai gas field as an example, the total methanol filling amount of the three gas injection pipelines is 30 to 60 liters / day (or 1.25 to 2.5 liters / hour), and the average methanol filling amount of a single gas injection pipeline is only 10 to 20 liters / day (or 0.4 to 0.8 liters / hour). Therefore, when the error of the flow meter reaches 57%, it is impossible to obtain the real and effective dosing amount (or dosing flow) based on the flow meter, and it is impossible to meet the production requirements of the gas field.
[0017] 2. The leakage of the gear flowmeter belongs to the mechanical gap leakage, and its leakage amount will inevitably change with the change of the pressure difference before and after the flowmeter; due to the inevitable complexity, volatility and randomness of the fluid in actual production conditions, the pressure difference before and after the gear flowmeter in actual production applications is bound to vary greatly and change randomly at any time, so its actual leakage amount is also very different and changes randomly at any time; therefore, the measurement error calibrated by the gear flowmeter before leaving the factory or under other indoor conditions is very different from the measurement error in actual production applications, which makes it difficult to accurately measure the dosing flow and cannot meet actual production requirements.
[0018] It is known from common knowledge and fluid mechanics in this field that: when the geometric size of the gap is constant, the flow rate of the fluid through the gap varies with the pressure difference before and after the gap; the flow resistance of the fluid through a small hole with an aperture of 1mm and a large hole with an aperture of 10mm are different; when the fluid passes through a small hole with an aperture of 1mm and a large hole with an aperture of 10mm at the same time, if the flow rate of the fluid through the large hole with an aperture of 10mm is changed, the flow rate through the small hole with an aperture of 1mm will inevitably change; it can be seen that even if the pressure difference before and after the gear flowmeter is constant, the leakage of the gear flowmeter at instantaneous flow rates of 10 liters / hour and 1 liter / hour is different; that is, even if the pressure difference before and after the same gear flowmeter is constant, the leakage of the gear flowmeter when measuring different instantaneous flow rates is different.
[0019] In short, the above-mentioned methods of controlling, adjusting and measuring the dosage (or dosage flow rate) cannot effectively measure the dosage and dosage flow rate when the dosage is small. Summary of the invention

[0383] 2) The second step is to balance the water level: open the main switch valve 707 and the calibration switch valve 709 and wait for 1 to 5 minutes. When the water levels of the drip tank 701 and the calibration cylinder 710 are the same or the instantaneous flow reading of the gear flow meter 703 returns to zero, close the calibration switch valve 709;
[0384] 3) The third step is to calibrate the metering error of the gear flowmeter: close the calibration switch valve 709, open and adjust the opening of the regulating valve 706 until the instantaneous flow of the gear flowmeter 703 is 1.5-2 liters / hour; then use the measuring cylinder 801 to collect water from the left side of the manifold 705, and quickly reset the gear flowmeter's cumulative flow reading to "0", and start timing at the same time; read the gear flowmeter's cumulative flow reading for 10 minutes, and use the measuring cylinder to measure the water output for 10 minutes; then calculate the average flow metering error of the gear flowmeter based on this;

Therefore, the accumulated flow of the gear flow meter can be accurately obtained by using the fast reset zero point method. At present, there are no successful precedents or public information on the application of pointer-type small-range gear flow meters in China.
[0386] 4) The fourth step is to determine the metering error of the calibration cylinder: keep the opening of the regulating valve 706 unchanged and close the main switch valve 707; then open the calibration switch valve 709, use the measuring cylinder 801 to collect the water output for 10 minutes from the left side of the manifold 705, and read the 10-minute liquid level drop reading of the calibration cylinder 710; then calculate the average flow metering error of the calibration cylinder 710 based on this;
[0387] The test results show that: when water flows from the drip tank 701 through the gear flowmeter 703 and enters the regulating valve 706, if the average flow rate of the gear flowmeter for 10 minutes is 1.6 liters / hour, the average actual flow rate of the 10 minutes calibrated by the measuring cylinder is 3.1 liters / hour. From this calculation, it can be known that the measurement error is as high as 48% and the leakage is as high as 1.5 liters / hour; when the opening of the regulating valve 706 is kept unchanged and water flows from the calibration cylinder 710 into the regulating valve 706, the average flow rate out of the calibration cylinder 710 in 10 minutes is 3.1 liters / hour. The average flow rate and the average flow rate collected by the measuring cylinder are both 3 liters / hour (that is, the measurement error of the calibration cylinder 711 itself is "0" or cannot be observed); from this, it can be seen that under the condition that the opening of the regulating valve 706 remains unchanged, the average actual flow rate of water flowing from the drip tank 701 through the gear flowmeter 703 into the regulating valve 706 is 3.1 liters / hour, and the average actual flow rate flowing directly from the calibration cylinder 710 into the regulating valve 706 is 3 liters / hour; therefore, the measurement error of calibrating the gear flowmeter 703 with the calibration cylinder 710 is 3.2%.
[0388] The test results further show that when the gear flowmeter 703 is calibrated with the calibration cylinder 710, although the liquid level reduction value of the calibration cylinder 710 is greater than the liquid level reduction value of the drip tank 701, resulting in a slight change in the liquid column pressure difference, which in turn causes a slight error of less than 4% in the flow rate of the two, it is within the measurement error requirement range of industrial instruments and can meet the gas field production requirements.
[0389] It is known from common knowledge that: national standards stipulate that the maximum allowable measurement error of industrial instruments and flow meters is 4%.
[0390] Further experiments show that when the water is replaced with methanol and the same experiment is carried out, the experimental conclusions are exactly the same;
[0391] Further experiments show that when the metering time is changed from 10 minutes to other times for the same type of test, the experimental conclusions are exactly the same;
[0392] In summary, the above tests show that the gear flowmeter can be accurately calibrated and calibrated using the above example data and calibration cylinder, and fully meets national standards and industrial production requirements.

[0476] Embodiment 36
[0477] See also Fig.17 As shown, the method for calibrating the metering and regulating control of the dosing flow rate of the dosing system in the process of dosing in the natural gas pipeline includes the following steps:
[0478] 1) Connection balance pressure:
[0479] At the top of the natural gas pipeline 1201, first use the medicine outlet pipeline 1202 to vertically connect the medicine outlet valve 308 to the top of the natural gas pipeline 1201, and then use the pressure-introducing pipeline 1203 to connect the pressure-introducing port 306 and the natural gas pipeline 1201, so that the pressure in the calibration cylinder 305 is automatically balanced with the pressure in the natural gas pipeline 1201 and the medicine outlet valve 308;
[0480] 2) Dosing:
[0481] Open the medicine outlet valve 308 and start the pump 302. The medicine will flow into the natural gas pipeline 1201 through the pump inlet pipe 301, the pump 302, the medicine delivery pipe 303, the flow meter 304, the tee 307, the medicine outlet valve 308 and the medicine outlet pipeline 1202 in sequence under the action of gravity.
[0482] It is known from common knowledge in the art that since the height of the calibration cylinder 305 is higher than the height of the medicine outlet valve 308, when the medicine outlet valve 308 is opened and connected to the natural gas pipeline 1201, the medicine can only pass downward through the medicine outlet valve 308 and the medicine outlet pipeline 1202 into the natural gas pipeline 1201, and it is impossible to pass upward through the calibration cylinder 305, the pressure inlet port 306, and the pressure inlet pipeline 1203 in sequence into the natural gas pipeline 1201.
[0483] 3) Flow meter measurement:
[0484] Keep the medicine flowing through the pump inlet pipe 301, pump 302, medicine delivery pipe 303, flow meter 304, tee 307, medicine outlet valve 308, medicine outlet pipeline 1202 into the natural gas pipeline 1201 under the action of gravity; read and record the instantaneous flow rate and the accumulated flow rate within 10 minutes of the flow meter 304 to obtain the average dosing flow rate of the medicine entering the natural gas pipeline 1201;
[0485] 4) Calibrate the flow meter measurement error
[0486] Close the medicine outlet valve 308, let the medicine flow upward into the calibration cylinder 305, read the increase in the liquid level of the calibration cylinder 305 in 10 minutes, quickly calculate the volume of the medicine entering the calibration cylinder 305 within 10 minutes, and obtain the medicine flow rate of the medicine entering the calibration cylinder 305; then, according to the formula of flow meter calibration measurement error = (medicine flow rate entering the calibration cylinder 305 - average dosing flow rate entering the natural gas pipeline 1201) ÷ medicine flow rate entering the calibration cylinder 305 × 100%, obtain the calibration measurement error of the flow meter;
[0487] It can be known from common knowledge in this field that: taking pressure gauge calibration as an example, a high-precision pressure gauge is used to calibrate a low-precision pressure gauge, that is, using high-precision to calibrate a low-precision measurement calibration method is a conventional technology; experiments have shown that the measurement error of the calibration cylinder 305 is much smaller than the measurement error of the flow meter, so using the measurement error of the calibration cylinder 305 to calibrate the measurement error of the flow meter belongs to the measurement calibration method of high-precision to calibrate a low-precision measurement calibration method; therefore, the calculation formula "measurement error = (chemical flow entering the calibration cylinder 305 - average dosing flow entering the natural gas pipeline 1201) ÷ chemical flow entering the calibration cylinder 305 × 100%" meets the national standard requirements for the calculation of industrial instrument measurement errors.
[0488] It is known from common knowledge in the art that when the reagent fills up the calibration cylinder 305, it will enter the pressure inlet 306, the pressure pipeline 1203 and then enter the natural gas pipeline 1201, and will not cause a pressure holding accident; when the medicine outlet valve 308 is opened, the reagent in the calibration cylinder 305, the pressure inlet 306 and the pressure pipeline 1203 will quickly fall into the natural gas pipeline 1201 under the action of gravity; therefore, when calibrating with the calibration cylinder 305, even if the operation is not timely, resulting in the calibration cylinder 305, the pressure inlet 306 and the pressure pipeline 1203 being completely filled with reagents, it will not cause a production safety accident and will not affect the re-calibration work.
[0489] 5) Calibrate and correct the dosing flow rate
[0490] First, open the medicine outlet valve 308, and allow the medicine to enter the natural gas pipeline 1201 through the pump inlet pipe 301, the pump 302, the medicine delivery pipe 303, the flow meter 304, the tee 307, and the medicine outlet valve 308 in sequence under the action of gravity; then, according to the flow meter calibration measurement error obtained in step 4), the instantaneous flow rate and the 10-minute cumulative flow rate of the flow meter 304 that are read and recorded again are calibrated and corrected;
[0491] It is known from common knowledge in the art that: since the height of the calibration cylinder 305 is higher than the height of the medicine outlet valve 308, after the medicine outlet valve 308 is opened and connected to the natural gas pipeline 1201, the medicine in the calibration cylinder 305 will flow downward through the medicine outlet valve 308 into the natural gas pipeline 1201 under the action of gravity, thereby automatically emptying the calibration cylinder 305; using a calibrated flow meter to calibrate and correct the metering error is a commonly used technical method in the art.
[0492] 6) Adjust the dosing flow rate to the required dosing amount
[0493] According to the flow meter calibration measurement error obtained in step 4), the instantaneous flow rate and the 10-minute cumulative flow rate of the flow meter 304 recorded are calibrated and corrected; then, according to the calibrated and corrected instantaneous flow rate and cumulative flow rate readings of the flow meter, the pump displacement is gradually adjusted to the required dosing flow rate.
[0494] It is known from the common knowledge in the art that the displacement of a metering pump can be adjusted by adjusting the reciprocating stroke of the plunger, and the displacement of a plunger pump, a gear pump, a centrifugal pump, etc. can be adjusted by frequency conversion speed regulation.
[0495] The application of the present invention to the gas distribution valve group of three gas injection pipelines in Qinghai gas field is taken as an example.
[0496] Public data from the Qinghai gas field shows that the pressure of the gas injection pipeline of the gas distribution valve group of the gas field is 10MPa, and natural gas hydrates are very likely to freeze and block it in winter. A metering pump and three pipelines are used to add methanol to the three gas injection pipelines to prevent freezing and blockage. During the winter period from December to March, operators can only adjust the methanol flow of the three gas injection pipelines based on their personal feelings, resulting in serious deviation of the methanol flow of the three gas injection pipelines, which further leads to frequent freezing and blockage of the gas injection pipelines, seriously affecting the gas lift production of the gas wells.
[0497] Experiments show that: Figure 2 The calibration device shown in the figure was used to carry out a gear flowmeter calibration test with methanol. The results showed that when the gear flowmeter was measuring a small flow of methanol, its metering error could reach 57%, which was 114 times of its factory calibration metering error.
[0498] Analysis and calculations show that methanol viscosity is lower than that of water; the average daily methanol injection volume of the three gas injection pipelines is 60 liters / day or 2.5 liters / hour, and the average daily methanol injection volume of each gas injection pipeline is 20 liters / day or 0.83 liters / hour, and the methanol flow rate is very small; if a gear flowmeter is installed on each alcohol injection pipeline, the flow measurement error can reach more than 50%; according to the average methanol injection of the three gas injection pipelines, the operator adjusts the methanol flow added to each gas injection pipeline to 1.25 liters / hour according to the flowmeter indication value and adjusts the metering pump displacement to 3.75 liters / hour, which means that the antifreeze needs of the gas injection pipeline have been met; however, because the 1.25 liters / hour displayed by the flowmeter has an error of 50%, the operator can adjust the flow rate of each gas injection pipeline to 1.25 liters / hour according to the flowmeter indication value and adjusts the metering pump displacement to 3.75 liters / hour. As mentioned above, the actual methanol flow rate of a certain gas injection pipeline may be 2.5 liters / hour (i.e. increased by 1 time) or 0.625 liters / hour; if the actual methanol flow rate of the gas injection pipeline is 2.5 liters / hour, it will inevitably cause the alcohol injection amount of the other two gas injection pipelines to be lower than 1.25 liters / hour and thus freeze; if the actual methanol flow rate of the gas injection pipeline is 0.625 liters / hour, it will inevitably lead to the gas injection pipeline; therefore, it means that the operator operates according to the indication value of the flowmeter with a metering error of more than 50%, and cannot solve the problem of methanol deviation in the gas injection pipeline, which will inevitably cause the gas injection pipeline to freeze and affect the production of the gas well; it can be seen that the method of setting a flow meter on each alcohol injection pipeline cannot effectively solve the problem of methanol deviation.
[0499] In order to solve the methanol bias problem in the gas distribution valve group, ensure that the gas injection pipeline is not frozen and blocked in winter and does not affect the production of gas wells, the gas distribution valve was tested in December 2018 using the present invention, and its technical solution is as follows:
[0500] 1) Install calibration cylinder, pressure pipeline, flow meter, etc.:
[0501] A DN15, PN250, 100mm long manganese steel drug outlet pipeline 1202 is vertically welded on the top of the gas injection pipeline 1201, and then a DN15, PN250 stainless steel ball valve is vertically installed on the upper part of the drug outlet pipeline 1202 with a threaded joint as a drug outlet valve 308, and then a DN15, PN250 stainless steel tee 307 is vertically installed on the upper part of the drug outlet valve 308 with a threaded joint, and then the upper interface of the tee 307 is vertically connected with a threaded joint to the bottom opening of the magnetic flap level gauge with an inner diameter of 50mm, a length of 1000mm, a liquid level scale division value of 1mm, and an opening at the top and bottom as the calibration cylinder 305, and then the top opening of the magnetic flap level gauge is connected with a threaded joint as the pressure inlet 306. A DN15, PN250 stainless steel pressure-inducing pipeline 1203 is connected, and then the other end of the pressure-inducing pipeline 1203 is welded to the top of the gas injection pipeline 1201 and connected thereto, so that the pressure in the calibration cylinder 305 is automatically balanced with the pressure in the gas injection pipeline 1201 and the medicine outlet valve 308; then a DN15, PN250 stainless steel medicine delivery pipe 303 is connected to the side interface of the tee 307 with a threaded joint, and then a PN250, 0.5-level accuracy, 0.3-60 liter / day gear flowmeter is connected to the medicine delivery pipe 303 with a threaded joint, and then the medicine delivery pipe 303 is connected to the outlet of a metering pump 302 with a maximum outlet pressure of 20MPa and a displacement of 0-10 liters / hour, and then the pump inlet pipe 301 is installed at the inlet of the metering pump 302;
[0502] Further analysis shows that the pressure of the gas injection pipeline 1201 of the gas distribution valve group is as high as 10 MPa, and the length (ie height) of the calibration cylinder 305 used is 1 meter. The increased pressure value of the metering pump 302 is less than 1%, and the impact on the leakage of the metering pump 302 is negligible.
[0503] 2) Add methanol:
[0504] Open the medicine outlet valve 308, start the pump 302, and methanol, under the action of gravity, passes through the pump inlet pipe 301, the pump 302, the medicine delivery pipe 303, the flow meter 304, the three-way 307, the medicine outlet valve 308, and the medicine outlet pipeline 1202 in sequence and enters the gas injection pipeline 1201;
[0505] 3) Flow meter measurement:
[0506] Keep the methanol flowing into the natural gas pipeline 1201 in sequence through the pump inlet pipe 301, the pump 302, the drug delivery pipe 303, the flow meter 304, the tee 307, the drug outlet valve 308, and the drug outlet pipeline 1202 under the action of gravity; read and record the instantaneous flow rate of the flow meter 304 and the cumulative flow rate for 10 minutes to obtain the average flow rate of the methanol entering the gas injection pipeline 1201;
[0507] 4) Calibrate the measurement error of the flow meter
[0508] Close the medicine outlet valve 308 to allow methanol to flow upward into the calibration cylinder 305; then start the timer and read the increase in the methanol liquid level in the calibration cylinder 305 in 10 minutes; then quickly calculate the volume of methanol entering the calibration cylinder 305 within 10 minutes based on the known 50 mm inner diameter of the calibration cylinder 305 (or the volume of 1 mm liquid level is 2 ml), and obtain the flow rate of methanol entering the calibration cylinder 305; then use the formula of flow meter calibration measurement error = (methanol flow rate entering the calibration cylinder 305 - average methanol flow rate entering the gas injection pipeline 1201) ÷ methanol flow rate entering the calibration cylinder 305 × 100% to obtain the calibration measurement error of the flow meter;
[0509] 5) Calibrate and correct methanol flow
[0510] First, open the medicine outlet valve 308, and allow the methanol to enter the injection pipeline 1201 through the pump inlet pipe 301, the pump 302, the medicine delivery pipe 303, the flow meter 304, the three-way 307, and the medicine outlet valve 308 in sequence under the action of gravity, and then read and record the instantaneous flow rate and the cumulative flow rate for 10 minutes of the flow meter 304 again; then, according to the flow meter calibration measurement error obtained in step 4), calibrate and correct the instantaneous flow rate and the cumulative flow rate for 10 minutes of the flow meter 304 read and recorded;
[0511] 6) Adjust the methanol flow rate to the required dosage
[0512] According to the flow meter calibration measurement error obtained in step 4), the instantaneous flow rate and the 10-minute cumulative flow rate of the flow meter 304 recorded are calibrated and corrected; then, according to the calibrated and corrected instantaneous flow rate and cumulative flow rate readings of the flow meter, the pump displacement is gradually adjusted to the required methanol flow rate.
[0513] The production experiment results show that after the gas distribution valve group applies the technical solution of the present invention, the methanol deviation problem of the three gas injection pipelines is effectively solved. During the 90-day test period, the three gas injection pipelines did not experience freezing and blockage problems, ensuring the normal gas lift production of the gas wells in winter.

[0600] Keep the opening of the regulating valve 706 and the calibration switch valve 709 unchanged, close the main switch valve 707, and the reagent in the calibration cylinder 710 will flow into the gas well casing 1802 by gravity through the calibration switch valve 709, the reagent tee 708, the regulating valve 706, the junction pipe 705, and the gas well casing valve 1801 in sequence; read the 10-minute liquid level reduction value of the calibration cylinder 710, quickly calculate the volume of the reagent flowing out of the calibration cylinder 710 within 10 minutes, and obtain the reagent flow rate of the reagent flowing out of the calibration cylinder 710; then, according to the formula of flow meter calibration measurement error = (medicine flow rate out of the calibration cylinder 710 - average dosing flow rate into the gas well casing 1802) ÷ reagent flow rate out of the calibration cylinder 710 × 100%, obtain the calibration measurement error of the flow meter 703;
[0601] From the test described in Example 16 of the present invention, it can be seen that the metering error of the gear flowmeter 703 calibrated by the calibration tube 710 is 3.2%, which meets the national standard requirements for the maximum allowable metering error of industrial instruments and flowmeters and can meet the production requirements of gas fields.
[0602] 6) Calibrate and correct the dosing flow rate
[0603] The flow meter 703 obtained in step 5) is used to calibrate the metering error, and the average dosing flow rate of the reagent entering the gas well casing 1802 obtained in step 4) is calibrated and corrected;
[0604] It is known from common knowledge in the art that using the calibrated flow meter measurement error to calibrate and correct the dosing flow rate is a commonly used technical method in the art.
[0605] 7) Adjust the dosing flow rate to the required dosing amount
[0606] When the main switch valve 707 is opened, the medicine in the drip tank 701 will flow into the gas well casing 1802 by gravity through the flow meter 703, the medicine delivery tube 704, the main switch valve 707, the medicine tee 708, the regulating valve 706, the manifold 705, and the gas well casing valve 1801. At the same time, part of the medicine will automatically flow into the calibration cylinder 710 to restore the liquid level of the calibration cylinder 710 to the balance with the liquid level in the drip tank 701.
[0607] Adjust the opening of the regulating valve 706, repeat steps 4) and 6) to adjust the dosing flow rate to the required flow rate.
[0608] It is known from common knowledge in the art that the capacity of the calibration cylinder 710 is extremely limited. After the main switch valve 707 is opened, the liquid level in the calibration cylinder 710 and the liquid level in the drip tank 701 can quickly restore balance.
[0609] Take the application of the present invention to the gas wells in the Qinghai gas field as an example.
[0610] Public data from the Qinghai gas field shows that the oil pressure of the gas wells in the gas field is generally above 5MPa. Natural gas hydrates are very likely to freeze and block the oil pipelines and gas gathering pipelines in winter. Methanol is injected into the gas wells to prevent freezing and blockage. The average daily methanol injection volume for a single well is 20-100 liters / day or 0.83 to 4 liters / hour. The flow meter error can reach more than 50%, which seriously affects the operator's judgment on the amount of methanol injection, resulting in frequent freezing and blockage of the gas well pipelines, seriously affecting the production of the gas wells.
[0611] In order to solve the problem of difficulty in judging the amount of alcohol injection due to large flow meter errors and ensure that the gas well pipeline is not frozen and blocked in winter and does not affect gas well production, the gas field applied the present invention to conduct production tests at three wells in January 2019. The technical solution is as follows:
[0612] 1) Wiring and elevation:
[0613] Use pipe threads to connect the manifold with one end closed to the gas well casing valve horizontally, or make the center line of the manifold higher than the center line of the gas well casing valve;
[0614] Use the method of raising the foundation to make the bottom of the drip tank 1.5 meters higher than the valve of the gas well casing and the center line of the gas well casing;
[0615] 2) Balance pressure
[0616] Introduce the natural gas in the gas well casing into the calibration cylinder and the drip tank, so that the pressure in the calibration cylinder, the drip tank and the gas well casing is balanced, and at the same time, the liquid level in the calibration cylinder and the drip tank is balanced;
[0617] 3) Dosing:
[0618] Allow the reagent in the drip tank to flow into the gas well casing under the action of gravity;
[0619] 4) Flow meter measurement:
[0620] Use a flow meter to measure the amount of chemicals entering the gas well casing;
[0621] 5) Calibrate the flow meter measurement error
[0622] According to the formula of flow meter calibration measurement error = (flow rate of reagent out of calibration cylinder - average dosing flow rate into gas well casing) ÷ flow rate of reagent out of calibration cylinder × 100%, the calibration measurement error of the flow meter is obtained;
[0623] 6) Calibrate and correct the dosing flow rate
[0624] The flow meter calibration measurement error obtained in step 5) is used to calibrate and correct the flow rate of the reagent entering the gas well casing in step 4);
[0625] 7) Adjust the dosing flow rate to the required dosing amount
[0626] Adjust the opening of the regulating valve 706, repeat steps 4) and 6) to adjust the dosing flow rate to the required flow rate.
[0627] The production experiment results show that after the three gas wells in the gas field were applied with the technical solution of the present invention, the problem that the flow meter was difficult to accurately measure the amount of injected alcohol was effectively solved. During the 30-day test period, the three gas wells did not experience freezing and blockage, ensuring the normal gas lift production of the gas wells in winter.
