Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of integrity management of aged submarine pipelines, and in particular relates to a submarine pipeline life prediction and life extension decision-making method, system, equipment and medium. Background Art

[0002] Submarine pipelines are an important part of marine oil and gas transportation. With the increase of service life, many submarine pipelines are approaching the end of their design life or have exceeded their design life. At present, most of the old submarine pipelines have serious corrosion fatigue cracks and structural damage due to poor management, unreasonable early design and harsh operating environment, and some have even reached their working life ahead of schedule. However, due to the continued exploitation of marginal oil fields, many submarine pipelines still need to continue to serve for 5-15 years, which is very likely to cause submarine pipeline leakage failure accidents, and even cause serious fires and explosions, bringing huge economic losses and ecological disasters. Therefore, in order to ensure the safe operation of submarine pipelines, it is urgent to predict the life of submarine pipelines and make life extension decisions.

[0003] In the existing technology, the reliability degradation process is the essential performance of characterizing and predicting the service life of the pipeline. In the random process models, such as: Wiener model, Gamma model and Gauss-Poisson joint distribution model, they are widely used to capture the uncertainty of operating environment, measurement and variability in the degradation process. However, although the reliability degradation state is a monotonically decreasing process, the life extension assessment needs to be dynamically updated to adapt to the complex seabed environment, and the single linear damage accumulation method is simple to calculate and lacks clear physical failure criteria.

[0004] Due to the cross-influence of electrochemistry and mechanics, the corrosion fatigue crack propagation mechanism is more complex and unique; however, the early process models for corrosion fatigue crack propagation in life extension decisions are still relatively complex and redundant; and the initial Paris formula is often used in the crack propagation stage, and the uncertainty of structural parameters makes the prediction results have great randomness. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method, system, equipment and medium for predicting the life of a submarine pipeline and making a life extension decision, so as to solve the technical problems that in the existing submarine pipeline life extension decision-making process, the fatigue process model is complex, the reliability of the evaluation result is low, and the decision result has a large error.

Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for predicting the life of a submarine pipeline and making a life extension decision, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0104] Step 1: Select the submarine pipeline to be predicted, and collect the operation status data and pipeline test data of the submarine pipeline to be predicted; the operation status of the submarine pipeline to be predicted includes submarine pipeline design parameters, pipeline operation route and pipeline maintenance data; the pipeline test data includes pipeline material mechanical property test results and fatigue crack growth test results; specifically, the submarine pipeline design parameters of the submarine pipeline to be predicted are shown in Table 1 below.

[0105] Table 1 Design parameters of submarine pipelines to be predicted

[0106]

[0107] Step 2: According to the interaction between corrosion and fatigue of the outer pipe material of the submarine pipeline to be predicted, the pipeline corrosion-fatigue dynamic degradation process is divided into four basic states; among them, the submarine pipeline corrosion-fatigue mechanism is clarified, and according to the material state change process, the pipeline corrosion-fatigue dynamic degradation process is divided into four basic states, including the corrosion pit initiation state, the corrosion pit to short crack extension state, the short crack to long crack extension state and the long crack extension state.

[0108] As attached Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the specific division process of the four states includes the following steps:

[0109] Step 21: Considering the corrosion environment of the submarine pipeline and the thickness of the pipeline corrosion layer, the initial anti-corrosion layer rupture and corrosion pit formation stage of the pipeline are divided into the corrosion pit initiation state.

[0110] Step 22: Based on the corrosion pit initiation state and considering the wave and current effects in the marine environment, the lateral growth stage of the pipeline corrosion pit and the short crack development stage are divided into the corrosion pit to short crack extension state.

[0111] Step 23: Based on the state of corrosion pits extending into short cracks, the crack extension mode is considered and the development stage of crack length from short to long is divided into the state of short cracks extending into long cracks.

[0112] Step 24: Based on the state of short crack extension to long crack, the entire long crack extension stage is divided into the long crack extension state in consideration of the final pipeline failure state.

[0113] Step 3: Based on the collected operating status data and pipeline test data of the submarine pipeline to be predicted, the EIFS distribution function is introduced to determine the equivalent initial defect size and function fitting parameters; and according to the determined equivalent initial defect size and function fitting parameters, the corrosion-fatigue dynamic degradation process state of the submarine pipeline to be predicted is simplified to obtain the corrosion-fatigue reliability degradation process state of the submarine pipeline.

[0114] The specific steps include:

[0115] Step 31, design multiple fatigue tests, and fit the number of stress-fracture cycles under each test environment condition according to the collected pipeline test data of the submarine pipeline to be predicted, so as to obtain the fatigue limit test value and stress intensity factor threshold test value under the corresponding test environment condition.

[0116] Step 32: Determine the functional distribution of the equivalent initial defect size EIFS of the submarine pipeline to be predicted according to the fatigue limit test value and the stress intensity factor threshold test value.

[0117] Step 33: According to the function distribution of the equivalent initial defect size EIFS of the submarine pipeline to be predicted, the corrosion-fatigue dynamic degradation process state of the submarine pipeline to be predicted is simplified to obtain the corrosion-fatigue reliability degradation process state of the submarine pipeline; wherein the corrosion-fatigue reliability degradation process state of the submarine pipeline is the crack propagation process state based on the initial defect size.

[0118] Step 4: Combining the equivalent initial defect size and the Paris formula, according to the corrosion-fatigue reliability degradation process state of the submarine pipeline, a dynamic Bayesian network is used to construct a submarine pipeline crack propagation model; and based on the submarine pipeline crack propagation model, the submarine pipeline crack failure probability curve is obtained.

[0119] The specific steps include:

[0120] Step 41, simplifying the Paris formula and extracting function variables according to the equivalent initial defect size to obtain a simplified Paris formula; wherein the equivalent initial defect size is an equivalent initial defect size EIFS function distribution.

[0121] Among them, the simplified Paris formula is as follows:

[0122]

[0123] Among them, da / dN is the crack extension; a is the crack depth; N is the number of external load cycles; ΔK is the range of stress intensity factor variation; C and m are material parameters, which obey lognormal distribution and normal distribution respectively;

[0124] Among them, the stress intensity factor variation range ΔK is related to the geometric shape of the submarine pipeline to be predicted; for the flat plate model with a crack in the center, the stress intensity factor variation range ΔK is described as:

[0125]

[0126] Where Δσ is the far-field stress amplitude, and Y(a) is the geometric function related to the crack depth;

[0127] Assuming that the geometric function Y(a) related to the crack depth is independent of the crack depth a, and the far-field stress amplitude Δσ obeys the Weibull distribution, the crack depth a is expressed as:

[0128]

[0129] Where a0 is the initial crack size; A is the scale parameter of the Weibull distribution; B is the shape parameter of the Weibull distribution; Γ(·) is the gamma function; the far-field stress amplitude Δσ is described by the Weibull distribution, which is expressed as:

[0130]

[0131] Step 42: Select the Bayesian function node of the dynamic Bayesian network and construct a submarine pipeline crack propagation model according to the simplified Paris formula, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown.

[0132] Step 43: According to the submarine pipeline crack growth model, the submarine pipeline reliability degradation curve is calculated to obtain the pipeline crack growth size probability under the time coordinate, that is, the submarine pipeline crack failure probability defect is obtained, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 4 As shown; among them, Figure 4 The calculation result diagram of the crack propagation probability of the submarine pipeline in the embodiment is given in FIG. Figure 4 It can be seen that in the fourth year of operation, the expansion crack will expand at a higher rate, and the long crack expansion rate will accelerate significantly in the eighth year; after 10 years of operation, the degree of damage will increase significantly, and the failure probability will be about 0.1; if no repair is carried out, the failure probability will increase to nearly 0.5 in about the 15th year of operation; after the 20th year of operation, the structure is very close to a failure event. In addition, the probability of smaller crack size gradually decreases with time. In contrast, the crack size grows faster from the 6th to the 8th year; the main reason is that this period is the competition stage between corrosion pit expansion and fatigue crack expansion. The growth rate of corrosion pits gradually decreases due to the accumulation of corrosion products, and then gradually increases due to the severe cracking of the anti-corrosion layer; with the expansion of corrosion cracks and the cyclic action of sea waves, the increase in fatigue crack growth rate exceeds the corrosion growth rate in a short time; in addition, with the increase of erosion depth, the fatigue crack growth rate is faster than the corrosion crack growth rate, and the time for short cracks to transform into long cracks is earlier.

[0133] In this embodiment, a Bayesian function node is selected, and a submarine pipeline crack propagation model is constructed according to the distribution of the equivalent initial defect size EIFS function and the parameters of the corresponding pipeline; wherein the distribution of the equivalent initial defect size EIFS function and the parameters of the corresponding pipeline are shown in Table 2 below.

[0134] Table 2 Equivalent initial defect size EIFS function distribution and corresponding pipeline parameters

[0135]

[0136] Step 5: Based on the EIFS parameter distribution function and the simplified Paris formula, select the Bayesian function node, discretize the crack extension size and select the Paris formula parameter distribution to build the crack extension model of the aged submarine pipeline, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 5 As shown; among them, Figure 5 The probability distribution diagram of crack size in different time periods in the embodiment is given in FIG. Figure 5It can be seen that with the expansion of cracks and the increase of service time, the probability of smaller cracks gradually decreases, and the probability of larger cracks gradually increases; the probability of cracks around 2.13 mm does not change with time, and the critical crack size does not change much with time. This is because when the crack growth rate is high, the hydrogen supply in the crack tip area is insufficient, resulting in a short-term recovery of the material's fracture resistance; in addition, the large crack stage is more sensitive to time, and its growth rate is much greater than that of small cracks; in the low-speed crack growth stage, crack growth is mainly affected by microstructure and corrosive environment; under the action of stress concentration, the later cracks will rapidly expand until they are destroyed, indicating that the effect of the corrosive environment on crack growth is not very important compared with the environmental load.

[0137] Step 6: Based on the crack failure probability curve of the submarine pipeline and the number of environmental load cycles, the crack extension limit state equation is constructed; and based on the crack extension limit state equation, the Monte Carlo method is used to calculate the submarine pipeline reliability degradation curve; specifically, considering the size of the pipeline penetration crack, the final size of the fatigue failure crack is set, and the crack extension limit state equation is constructed; the number of submarine cyclic loads of the pipeline is determined, and the submarine pipeline reliability degradation curve is calculated based on the Monte Carlo method, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 5 shown.

[0138] Step 7: According to the preset reliability threshold of the pipeline to be predicted and the reliability degradation curve of the submarine pipeline, the dynamic change result of the pipeline reliability during operation is obtained based on the time coordinate axis, and the operating life and key failure time nodes of the pipeline to be predicted are determined, that is, the submarine pipeline life prediction and life extension decision results are obtained, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 6 As shown; if the operating life and key failure time nodes of the pipeline to be predicted exceed the preset reliability threshold of the pipeline to be predicted, the pipeline to be predicted needs to be replaced, otherwise the submarine pipeline life prediction and life extension decision results are output; in this embodiment, the dynamic change results of pipeline reliability during operation are obtained based on the time coordinate axis, providing theoretical and technical support for the life prediction and life extension decision of aging pipelines; as shown in the attached Figure 6 The following is a graph showing the life prediction and life extension decision results of the submarine pipeline in the embodiment. Figure 6It can be seen that as the pipeline was initially exposed to seawater, a passivation layer formed on its surface to resist further corrosion; but the combined effect of chloride ions and salt layers provided a favorable environment for the prosperity of submarine microbial activities, leading to the formation of metal cracks; free chloride ions in seawater gradually penetrated the protective film, causing cracks and pitting, and further formed corrosion and pitting development. After pitting caused microcracks, the decline trend of pipeline reliability over time accelerated; according to the dynamic prediction results of this embodiment, the pipeline will enter a rapid degradation period after 10 years, and the decline rate will reach a peak after 18 years; although most submarine pipelines are coated to prevent corrosion and stress corrosion cracking, regular inspections are still required after 8 years of operation to ensure that the corrosion protection system continues to work. Once the crack propagation rate accelerates, the probability of pipeline damage will increase greatly; in the later stage of operation, some modifications and additions to the integrity management measures of the pipeline may be required; the design life of the pipeline in this embodiment is 20 years, and the operating reliability threshold is 0.35. It can be seen that although the design life of the pipeline is close, the reliability is high and it can still operate for about 5-8 years. The results of the reliability prediction model are in good agreement with the actual operational reliability degradation process, which proves the effectiveness of the method.

[0139] The submarine pipeline life prediction and life extension decision method described in this embodiment is aimed at aging submarine pipelines, and takes into account the equivalent initial defect size and the simplification of the corrosion-fatigue model, and proposes an aging submarine pipeline life prediction and life extension decision method with pipeline reliability degradation. First, the corrosion-fatigue high-risk pipeline of the aging submarine pipeline to be predicted is selected, and relevant operation status data and pipeline test data are collected; secondly, considering the interaction between corrosion and fatigue of the outer pipe material of the aging submarine pipeline, the pipeline corrosion-fatigue dynamic degradation process is divided into four basic states; based on the EIFS distribution function, the equivalent initial defect size and function fitting parameters are determined, and the aging submarine pipeline is simplified. The corrosion-fatigue reliability degradation process of submarine pipelines; based on the equivalent initial defect size and the Paris formula, the dynamic Bayesian method is used to construct the crack growth model of aged submarine pipelines and obtain the corrosion-fatigue crack failure probability curve; based on the corrosion-fatigue crack failure probability curve and the number of environmental load cycles, the crack growth limit state equation is constructed, and the Monte Carlo method is used to calculate the reliability degradation curve of aged submarine pipelines; finally, based on the reliability threshold and reliability degradation curve of aged submarine pipelines, the pipeline operating life and key failure time nodes are predicted, providing theoretical and technical support for the life prediction and life extension decision of aged pipelines.
