Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas or VOCs waste gas treatment technology generated by the breathing of oil storage tanks, specifically an oil storage tank breathing gas collection and reinjection device. Background Technology

[0002] According to the "Emission Standard of Air Pollutants for Onshore Oil and Gas Extraction Industry" (GB39728-2020), the crude oil dehydration, storage, loading and unloading processes in some crude oil tank areas are not fully enclosed. Therefore, it is necessary to modify the crude oil tanks that do not meet the emission standard requirements to achieve a fully enclosed process flow and achieve zero VOCs emissions.

[0003] The oil tank breathing gas collection and reinjection device mainly recovers the oil and gas or VOCs waste gas generated by the breathing of oil storage tanks. The pressurized oil and gas is sent to the external pipeline network or depressurized and used as the sealing gas for crude oil storage tanks. The gas generated by the breathing of the oil tank is discharged outside the storage tank through the breather valve at the top of the tank. Then, the gas discharged outside the storage tank is collected through pipeline valves and other fittings. After the oil and gas from the storage tank area is cooled, it enters the buffer tank in the oil tank breathing gas collection and reinjection device. After pressure stabilization, the oil and gas enters the gas pressurization device, which pressurizes the oil and gas. After the pressurized oil and gas is cooled again, it enters the subsequent gas storage tank. After pressure stabilization and gas-liquid separation, the oil and gas is sent to the external pipeline network or depressurized and used as the sealing gas for the storage tank.

[0004] Currently, the main mature technologies for treating breathing gas from oil tanks include RTO, RCO, and condensate recovery. These processes can basically meet the requirements for treating breathing gas from oil tanks, but there are still many problems.

[0005] Oil tank breathing gases can be categorized into large-scale breathing from oil intake and small-scale breathing from daily temperature and pressure changes and the inherent volatility of the oil, depending on the production operation. Most of the time, oil tank breathing gases are small-scale, resulting from these smaller-volume gases. While RTO and RCO technologies are used to treat oil tank breathing gases, the need for continuous ventilation at the collection end to create negative pressure leads to a continuous increase in the volume of breathing gases. Although back-end treatment is implemented, this incremental increase contradicts the fundamental logic and principles of environmental governance. Furthermore, reducing the amount of oil produced would significantly decrease economic viability.

[0006] The concentration of the breathing gas in the oil tank does not meet the energy requirements of treatment technologies such as RTO and RCO, thus necessitating the addition of refueling equipment. The operating costs of this technology are relatively high in the later stages.

[0007] 3. RTO and RCO technologies are based on the combustion stage of oil and gas. Since breathing oil and gas are combustible gases, the intake concentration of the terminal equipment must be controlled below the LEL (Lower Explosive Limit). If the operation is improper and the intake concentration is above the LEL, it can easily cause an explosion, posing a high safety risk.

[0008] 4. If the condensation recovery of exhaust gas fails to meet standards, additional waste gas treatment facilities (activated carbon adsorption devices) are required, resulting in high overall equipment investment and operation and maintenance costs, making it economically infeasible. Furthermore, for non-refined oil tanks such as crude oil tanks, the composition of the breathing gas is complex, making it difficult for primary cooling devices to condense and recover all components. Cryogenic devices can condense and recover more components, but they still cannot recover all components. Moreover, the investment in cryogenic devices is relatively high. Summary of the Invention

The outlet end of the oil-gas compression device 3 is connected to the inlet end of the oil-gas storage tank 5 via an oil-gas transmission pipeline. The upper outlet end of the oil-gas storage tank 5 is connected to the combustion furnace. The lower outlet end of the oil-gas storage tank 5 is connected to the gas-liquid separator 2 via an oil-gas transmission pipeline.

[0041] The gas-liquid separation mechanism is used to separate light oil and gas. The gas-liquid separation mechanism includes a first gas-liquid heat exchanger 1, a gas-liquid separation tank 2, a membrane separation tank 25, and a desulfurizing agent tank 26. The gas-liquid separation tank 2 is used for buffering and gas-liquid separation of volatile oil and gas. It adopts a vertical double-headed storage tank and is made of stainless steel. The cooled oil and gas enter from the middle of the storage tank. The lower part of the gas-liquid separation tank 2 is used to collect liquid oil-water mixture. Light oil accumulates at the bottom of the storage tank and is transferred to the oil storage tank after reaching the limit liquid level. The upper part of the gas-liquid separation tank 2 is used for oil and gas storage. Heavy oil and gas accumulate at the top of the storage tank and enter the lower processing unit through the outlet pipe at the top of the tank.

[0042] To facilitate heat exchange and cooling of oil and gas, the first gas-liquid heat exchanger 1 is installed above the oil and gas conveying pipeline at the inlet end of the gas-liquid separator 2.

[0043] Membrane separator 25 is a vertical storage tank made of stainless steel. The membrane is a proton exchange membrane. After simple treatment, the oil and gas enter the membrane separator 25 for deep separation. The proton exchange membrane is an atmospheric pressure separation membrane, which requires very little power to separate the oil and gas. Desulfurizer tank 26 is used for desulfurization treatment of deep separated oil and gas. It is a vertical storage tank made of stainless steel. The desulfurizer is a rare earth modified zinc oxide composite absorbent. The absorbent is arranged in layers. The filling amount of desulfurizer can be determined according to the H2S gas concentration in the oil and gas to ensure the removal rate of H2S gas.

[0044] The oil and gas compression mechanism is used for the compression, pressurization, and cooling of heavy oil and gas.

The oil and gas compression unit 3 adjusts the pressure based on the pipe temperature sensor 14, the pipe oxygen content analyzer 15, and the pipe pressure sensor 16. The operating condition value of the pipe pressure sensor 16 is frequency-adjusted to form an interlock control. The high alarm value of the pipe pressure sensor 16 is set to 500Pa and the low alarm value to 200Pa. When the high alarm value is reached, the oil-gas compression device 3 automatically starts. When the pressure of the pipe reaches the low alarm value, the oil-gas compression device 3 automatically shuts down. The whole process is automatically controlled by PLC. The oil-gas compression device 3 is suitable for the compression of combustible gases. The oil-gas compression device 3 as a whole needs to be explosion-proof. The oil-gas compression device 3 increases the pressure of heavy oil and gas from 0.2KPa to 0.5-0.6MPa to provide power for oil and gas transportation. At the same time, it also compresses the heavy oil and gas to increase its mass density.

[0045] The oil and gas storage mechanism is used for storing heavy pressurized oil and gas.

An automatic control switch valve is installed on the gas-liquid separation section's conveying pipeline, which can be remotely controlled in case of emergencies. The sensor values ​​are displayed on the PLC control cabinet panel.

[0051] In summary, the oil products converted from the cooled oil and gas in this device can be reinjected into the oil storage tank 6. The entire processing device forms a closed loop, with no other by-products generated, eliminating the need for by-product processing. The excess oil and gas after processing can be used as fuel to supplement the gas pipeline, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly. Furthermore, the gas reinjected into the oil tank will accelerate the formation of a balanced state in the gas chamber space inside the tank, thereby shortening and suppressing the small breathing phenomenon, reducing the amount of breathing gas, which is more in line with the concept of environmental protection and increases the economic benefits of production.

[0052] The entire set of equipment is equipped with early warning and detection sensors such as combustible gas alarm, oxygen content detector, and H2S gas detector.
