Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of information processing and analysis of underwater production systems, and particularly relates to a data-driven fault mode and effect analysis system for underwater production systems. Background Art
[0002] Underwater production systems are the core facilities for offshore oil and gas exploitation, and their safety and reliability directly affect the production efficiency and operation cost of deepwater oil and gas fields. However, due to the extreme working environment (deep water, high pressure, low temperature, corrosion, etc.) and high system complexity, the failure frequency and failure risk of underwater production systems are relatively high. In particular, the failure of key equipment often leads to serious economic losses and environmental hazards. To ensure the safe operation of underwater production systems, it is particularly important to comprehensively analyze and scientifically evaluate their fault modes and effects.
[0003] Existing system fault analysis methods mainly rely on traditional failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) and expert experience-based evaluation methods. Although these methods can initially identify fault modes, they have the following main problems:
[0004] (1) Insufficient data utilization: Existing methods rely more on qualitative analysis by experts and fail to fully utilize the large amount of historical data accumulated during the operation of underwater production systems.
[0005] (2) Strong subjectivity: Expert opinions dominate the analysis, and the analysis results are easily affected by the expert experience level and subjective judgment, resulting in insufficient scientificity and objectivity of the results.
[0006] (3) Lack of dynamics in priority ranking: Traditional methods for priority ranking of fault modes fail to fully consider the objective weights of multi-dimensional data (such as failure incidence rate, production loss, etc.), resulting in the ranking results being difficult to comprehensively reflect system risks.
[0007] (4) Lack of pertinence in preventive suggestions: Due to the lack of a data-driven analysis mechanism, the suggestions for risk control by existing methods are often not specific and targeted enough.
[0008] In view of the above deficiencies, the present invention proposes a data-driven fault mode and effect analysis system for underwater production systems. By combining technical means such as historical data collection, statistical analysis, weight calculation, and priority ranking, the present invention can comprehensively mine and utilize historical data, scientifically analyze the fault modes of the system, provide dynamic and objective priority rankings and specific preventive measures, thereby significantly improving the safety and reliability of underwater production systems. Summary of the Invention
[0009] The object of the present invention is to provide a data-driven fault mode and effect analysis system for underwater production systems to solve the problems existing in the prior art.
[0010] Technical solution of the present invention:

[0015] Based on the available multi-source historical data in the historical data collection and storage module, determine the failure rate, production loss, mean time to repair, and mean time between failures of the main fault modes, and form failure analysis data;
[0016] Module 3, data analysis index weight calculation module;
[0017] Based on the failure analysis data determined by the historical data analysis module, obtain the weights of the failure rate, production loss, mean time to repair, and mean time between failures through an objective weight calculation method, namely the method based on the standard removal effect method (MEREC method);
[0018] Module 4, fault mode ranking and analysis module;
[0019] Based on the output data of the historical data analysis module and the data analysis index weight calculation module, perform priority ranking on the main fault modes through a multi-criteria decision-making algorithm, namely the combined compromise sorting method (CoCoSo method), display the results, and recommend preventive measures.
[0020] The present invention discloses a brand-new underwater production system data processing and analysis system, which is completely data-driven and its function is to realize the failure mode analysis of the underwater production system. The proposed system includes four modules and main functional steps. First, the first module is used to collect, store, and detailly check historical faults, and output key fault modes; the second module is to determine data analysis indexes according to the available data, so as to form failure analysis data. Specifically, the present invention focuses on four main data analysis indexes: failure rate, production loss, mean time to repair, and mean time between failures. However, in actual applications, other data analysis indexes can be included according to more comprehensive historical data; next, module 3 uses an objective weight calculation method to obtain the weights of the data analysis indexes; module 4 then uses a multi-criteria decision-making algorithm to prioritize the fault modes, and finally outputs the results and recommends necessary preventive measures.

Brief description of the drawings
[0030] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the data-driven underwater production system failure mode and effect analysis system provided by the present invention. Detailed implementation manners
[0031] The following details the specific structure and implementation process of the present solution through specific embodiments and drawings.
[0032] As Figure 1 shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, a data-driven underwater production system failure mode and effect analysis system is disclosed, which includes four components: a historical data collection and storage module, a historical data analysis module, a data analysis indicator weight calculation module, and a failure mode ranking and analysis module. The realization of the system functions has the following steps:
[0033] Module 1: The historical data collection and storage module is as follows:
[0034] (1) Data collection;
[0035] Collect multi-source historical data of the underwater production system, including but not limited to the following data types:
[0036] (1.1) Fault log data: including the fault occurrence time, fault description, involved equipment, and repair time;
[0037] (1.2) Production loss data: records of production interruption losses directly related to faults;
[0038] (1.3) System operation data: including the operation parameters of equipment (such as temperature, pressure, flow rate) and maintenance history records;
[0039] (2) Data storage;
[0040] The collected multi-source historical data is stored in a distributed database after preprocessing to ensure data integrity, consistency, and traceability;
[0041] (2.1) Data preprocessing includes data cleaning (removing redundant or incomplete data), standardization (unifying data formats), and denoising (filtering out abnormal data);
[0042] (2.2) Data storage is implemented using a NoSQL database, supporting large-scale data parallel processing and query optimization;
[0043] (3) Output results;
[0044] (3.1) Output the cleaned multi-source historical data to provide basic data support for subsequent modules;
[0045] (3.2) Output the main fault modes of the underwater production system determined after preliminary analysis of the available multi-source historical data.
[0046] Module 2: Historical data analysis module is as follows:
[0047] (1) Data index extraction;
[0048] Based on the available multi-source historical data stored in the historical data collection and storage module, for each fault mode to be analyzed, the following four core indicators are extracted:
[0049] (1.1) Fault occurrence rate: the ratio of the total number of fault occurrences to time, used to reflect the frequency of faults;
[0050] (1.2) Production loss: the economic loss directly caused by faults, expressed in monetary units;
[0051] (1.3) Mean time to repair: the average time required to repair each fault;
[0052] (1.4) Mean time between failures: the time interval between two consecutive faults, used to evaluate the reliability of system operation;
[0053] (2) Data analysis methods;
[0054] Data analysis is carried out according to the above four core indicators, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0055] (2.1) Failure rate OR: By counting the number of failures and the running time within a set time period (one year), calculate the failure rate of each failure mode as follows:
[0056]
[0057] (2.2) Production loss PL: According to the production interruption situation in the historical records, count the economic losses caused by each failure and calculate the average loss;
[0058] (2.3) Mean repair time MRT: Count the total repair time of all failures and divide it by the number of failures to obtain the mean repair time as follows:
[0059]
[0060] (2.4) Time between failures TBF: Count the time intervals between all adjacent failures and calculate the average value of these intervals as follows:
[0061]
[0062] (3) Data characteristic analysis;
[0063] (3.1) By analyzing the distribution characteristics of the time between failures, evaluate the reliability trend of the underwater production system operation;
[0064] (3.2) Combine visualization tools to generate histograms, trend charts and box plots to visually display the statistical characteristics of the indicators;
[0065] (4) Output results;
[0066] The output of the historical data analysis module includes four core indicators and the data analysis results under each failure mode, providing a quantitative basis for the weight calculation of the subsequent data analysis indicator weight calculation module and the failure ranking analysis of the failure mode ranking and analysis module; the generated analysis report can also be directly used for the performance evaluation of the underwater production system and the optimization of maintenance strategies.
[0067] Module 3: The data analysis indicator weight calculation module is as follows:
[0068] (1) Weight calculation method;
[0069] The data analysis index weight calculation module calculates the weights of each core index using the standard removal effect method based on the four core indexes output by the historical data analysis module; the standard removal effect method (MEREC method) determines the importance of an index by calculating the degree of influence on the overall evaluation result of the underwater production system after each core index is removed; the greater the influence, the higher the importance of the index; the specific steps are as follows:
[0070] (1.1) Based on the output result of the historical data analysis module, construct a decision matrix X = [x ij m×n , where x ij represents the evaluation value of the i-th failure mode under the j-th index. There are m failure modes and n indexes in total, and n = 4;
[0071] (1.2) Since the dimensions of each index may be different, standardize the decision matrix. The formula is:
[0072]
[0073] Among them, r ij represents the value of the i-th failure mode under the j-th index after standardization;
[0074] (1.3) Calculate the removal effect of each index; for each index, calculate the influence on the overall evaluation result of the underwater production system after it is removed, which is the removal effect E j . Its calculation formula is:
[0075]
[0076] Among them, E j is the removal effect of the j-th index;
[0077] (2) Weight calculation formula;
[0078] According to the removal effect E j determine the weight w j of the j-th index:
[0079]
[0080] (3) Output result;
[0081] Generate a weight distribution table for each core index, intuitively showing the influence weight of each core index on the failure of the underwater production system.
[0082] Module 4: Failure mode sorting and analysis module is as follows:
[0083] (1) Sorting method;
[0084] The failure mode ranking and analysis module, based on the output data of the historical data analysis module and the data analysis index weight calculation module, uses the combined compromise sorting method (CoCoSo method) to prioritize the main failure modes of the underwater production system:
[0085] For each failure mode, calculate its weighted sum S i and weighted geometric mean G i :
[0086]
[0087] where S i is the weighted sum of the i-th failure mode, reflecting its overall performance on all indicators; G i is the weighted geometric mean of the i-th failure mode, providing another perspective on overall evaluation;
[0088] Introduce three comprehensive scores representing three different combination strategies:
[0089]
[0090]
[0091] where and represent the score values based on the arithmetic mean, the score value relative to the worst, and the score value based on a balanced attitude, respectively; the value range of λ is 0 ≤ λ ≤ 1, and it is 0.5;
[0092] Based on the above scoring results, calculate the final score, and the formula is:
[0093]
[0094] where Φ i is the final score of the i-th failure mode. Rank the failure modes according to Φ i The larger the value, the higher the priority;
[0095] (2) Result display;
[0096] The priority ranking results are output in the form of tables and visual charts, showing the priorities of the failure modes and their comprehensive scores;
[0097] (3) Recommendation generation
[0098] Generate specific control recommendations based on the ranking results.
