Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention specifically relates to a highly efficient decarbonization system for petroleum associated gas, and belongs to the technical field of decarbonization of petroleum associated gas. Background Art

[0002] Oilfield associated gas is the gas that escapes from the oil layer along with the oil and the natural gas that is partially dissolved in the oil. It contains more hydrocarbons and has good utilization value. At present, the measures to solve this kind of problem at home and abroad are to adopt carbon monoxide injection oil recovery technology, which can greatly improve the crude oil recovery rate compared with water drive and other gas drives (such as nitrogen, air), and the oil recovery effect is remarkable. However, the associated gas that escapes after the carbon monoxide injection mixed phase oil recovery has the characteristics of high carbon monoxide content and large fluctuation range (5%~90%) in a short period of time. At present, there are low-temperature separation method, solution absorption method, membrane separation method and the like for the separation and recovery of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide from oilfield associated gas. For example, the Chinese patent authorization announcement number: CN116510471B discloses an oilfield associated gas decarbonization system, which adopts membrane separation method for treatment, and the outlet of the membrane module is connected with the qualified associated gas and the inlet of the shale gas flowmeter. This structure has no chemical reaction in the process of shale gas separating carbon dioxide, but the decarbonization efficiency of this structure is general, and it is impossible to carry out decarbonization treatment continuously. Summary of the invention

[0003] To solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a highly efficient decarbonization system for associated petroleum gas. The adsorption tower group can realize continuous decarbonization and online desorption of the adsorbent, which can ensure both the decarbonization efficiency and the decarbonization effect of associated petroleum gas.

[0004] The petroleum associated gas efficient decarbonization system of the present invention comprises:

[0005] Main control module for whole machine control;

[0006] The raw gas intake system includes a gas supply pipe for the petroleum-associated gas, and the gas supply pipe is connected to a pressure reducing valve to reduce the pressure of the petroleum-associated gas to a set pressure value;

[0007] Cold dryer, the output end of the raw gas intake system is connected to the input end of the cold dryer through the first filter, and the output end of the cold dryer is connected to the second filter; the first filter and the second filter before and after the cold dryer are precision gas filters, and the cold dryer has an automatic drainage function;

[0009] Furthermore, the raw gas intake system allows the associated petroleum gas to enter the first filter after decompression, and then enter the cold dryer after coarse filtration through the first filter. The associated petroleum gas is cooled, dehumidified and deoiled by the cold dryer. The treated associated petroleum gas is introduced into the first adsorption tower or the second adsorption tower through the first inlet valve or the second inlet valve. The first inlet valve and the second inlet valve are opened alternately, and the associated petroleum gas enters the first adsorption tower or the second adsorption tower. The carbon dioxide in the associated petroleum gas is adsorbed and removed by the molecular sieve in the first adsorption tower or the second adsorption tower. The associated petroleum gas after decarbonization is discharged from the first outlet valve or the second outlet valve into the associated gas decarbonization pipe; the adsorption regeneration process of the adsorption tower group adopts time sequence control, and the adsorption regeneration process of the first adsorption tower is first carried out, specifically: the first pressure relief valve, the first three-way valve and the vacuum pump are opened, and the vacuum pump performs vacuum desorption on the first adsorption tower. When the vacuum degree reaches the set value, the first pressure relief valve is closed, and then the top balance valve of the adsorption tower is opened to connect the associated gas decarbonization pipe with the first adsorption tower, and the associated gas decarbonization pipe and the adsorption tower are connected. The top balancing valve slowly pressurizes and balances the first adsorption tower to the operating pressure, and then closes the top balancing valve of the adsorption tower; then closes the second inlet valve and the second outlet valve, and opens the first inlet valve and the first outlet valve in sequence, the first adsorption tower enters the adsorption state, and adsorbs and removes the carbon dioxide in the associated gas of the petroleum; at the same time, the second adsorption tower is adsorbed and regenerated, and the adsorption and regeneration process of the second adsorption tower is consistent with that of the first adsorption tower; when the first adsorption tower is saturated with adsorption, close the first inlet valve and the first outlet valve of the first adsorption tower, open the first pressure relief valve, and switch the first three-way valve at the same time to connect the first pressure relief valve with the exhaust pipe, and the first adsorption tower is exhausted to the emptying pipe through the exhaust pipe. After the pressure in the first adsorption tower is continuously released to normal pressure, the first three-way valve is switched again to connect the first pressure relief valve with the vacuum pump.

[0011] Furthermore, a carbon dioxide concentration monitor is provided on the temporary storage pressure tank; the temporary storage pressure tank is connected to the decarbonization output pipeline through an external discharge valve; the carbon dioxide concentration monitor is connected to an online time adjustment unit, and the online time adjustment unit is connected to a comparison table of concentration threshold segments and switching times; the online time adjustment unit is connected to a main control module; the external discharge valve is connected to the online time adjustment unit; when the carbon dioxide concentration monitor detects carbon dioxide in the decarbonization associated gas When the concentration is lower than 5 vol%, the time online adjustment unit gives a signal to the external discharge valve, so that the external discharge valve is opened. Even if the temporary storage pressure tank discharges the decarbonization associated gas into the decarbonization output pipeline, when the pressure is lower than the set pressure value, the external discharge valve is closed.

[0012] Furthermore, the carbon dioxide concentration monitor monitors the carbon dioxide concentration value of the petroleum associated gas in the temporary storage pressure tank in real time, and sends the carbon dioxide concentration value to the time online adjustment unit. The online adjustment unit determines whether the carbon dioxide concentration value falls into a certain concentration threshold segment of the comparison table, and obtains the switching time according to the concentration threshold segment. Then the time online adjustment unit sends the switching time to the main control module; the main control module updates the setting time of the first outlet valve and the second outlet valve online; the time online adjustment unit first obtains the switching time and sends it to the main control module. When the carbon dioxide in the decarbonized associated gas is When the concentration is below 5 vol%, the gas can be directly exhausted to the decarbonization output pipeline.
