Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of natural gas gathering and transportation, and specifically relates to a wet gas intermittent liquid drainage gathering and transportation device and process. Background Art

[0002] During gas field production, the produced gas at the wellhead usually contains a certain amount of liquid. The common natural gas gathering and transportation processes are divided into two types: gas-liquid mixed transportation and gas-liquid separate transportation. Please refer to the appendix Figure 2 , the so-called gas-liquid mixed transportation means that the raw gas is metered by a meter after separation at the well site, and then the gas and liquid are remixed and transported, and then transported to the gas gathering station through the gathering and transportation pipeline network for further processing. Please refer to Figure 3 , gas-liquid separate transportation is to set up a gas-liquid separator at the well site. After the gas and liquid are separated, they are transported to the gas gathering station through their respective pipelines.

[0003] For the gas-liquid mixed transportation mode, as the liquid enters the gathering and transportation pipeline, liquid accumulation will occur in the pipeline. The existence of liquid accumulation will reduce the effective transportation area of the pipeline, resulting in increased resistance, causing pressure fluctuations, and in addition, it will also accelerate the corrosion of the pipeline. For the gas-liquid separate transportation mode, it is necessary to lay separate liquid transportation pipelines and gas transportation pipelines, resulting in a huge overall investment cost.

[0010] A wet gas intermittent liquid drainage gathering and transportation process includes the following steps: A. Normal gas exhaust: Open the first shut-off valve and the fourth shut-off valve, and close the second shut-off valve, the third shut-off valve, the fifth shut-off valve, and the sixth shut-off valve; the gas-liquid mixed phase produced at the wellhead flows through the wellhead incoming flow pipe and enters the gas-liquid separator. The gas-liquid separator separates the gas-liquid mixed phase into a gas phase and a liquid phase. The gas phase sequentially flows through the gas transportation pipe and the gas-liquid mixed transportation pipe and enters the main gas gathering station, and the liquid phase flows through the liquid transportation pipe and enters the liquid storage tank. B. Intermittent liquid drainage: Place the rear isolation pig inside the liquid distribution cylinder near one end of the gas-liquid mixed transportation pipeline, place the front isolation pig inside the liquid distribution cylinder near one end of the gas transportation pipe, and bind the front isolation pig and the rear isolation pig with a flexible steel member. The front isolation pig and the rear isolation pig isolate a liquid storage cavity inside the liquid distribution cylinder. Open the third shut-off valve on the liquid injection pipe, start the infusion pump, and inject the liquid in the liquid storage tank into the liquid storage cavity inside the liquid mixing cylinder; at the same time, open the fifth shut-off valve on the chemical agent pipe, start the chemical agent pump, and the chemical agent pump injects the corrosion inhibitor in the chemical agent tank into the liquid storage cavity; the front isolation pig, the liquid at the liquid storage cavity, and the rear isolation pig form a liquid plug. When it is observed that there is a liquid flow in the overflow pipe, it indicates that the liquid storage cavity is full of liquid. At this time, first close the third shut-off valve and the fifth shut-off valve, stop the infusion pump and the chemical agent pump, and then close the sixth shut-off valve. Open the second shut-off valve and close the first shut-off valve. The gas phase separated by the gas-liquid separator flows through the gas transmission pipe, the gas injection pipe, and the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe in sequence and enters the main gas gathering station; during the flow of this gas phase, the gas phase pushes the liquid plug to move. The liquid plug moves through the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe, and the liquid plug is taken out at the main gas gathering station.

[0011] (III) Beneficial effects The present invention provides a wet gas intermittent liquid drainage gathering and transportation device and process, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The wet gas intermittent liquid drainage gathering and transportation device and process, through the coordinated setting of the wellhead incoming flow pipe, the gas transmission pipe, the liquid infusion pipe, the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe, the gas injection pipe, the liquid injection pipe, the gas-liquid separator, the liquid mixing cylinder, and the liquid storage tank, enables the wet gas intermittent liquid drainage gathering and transportation device and process to have the effects of gas-liquid separation and intermittent liquid drainage for the raw gas produced in the gas field. The gas-liquid separator separates the liquid-containing raw gas into gas and liquid, and the produced gas phase is transported to the main gas gathering station through the gas transmission pipe and the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe; the liquid storage tank is used to pre-store the produced liquid phase. During liquid drainage, the gas transmission is first paused, and the liquid in the liquid storage tank is transported into the liquid mixing cylinder by the infusion pump to form a liquid plug. Then the gas injection pipe is opened and the gas transmission starts. The gas phase pushes the liquid plug to move to the main gas gathering station, and the main gas gathering station further processes the liquid plug, so as to achieve the purpose of gas-liquid separation, intermittent liquid drainage gathering and transportation of the liquid-containing natural gas. Compared with the prior art, it can effectively reduce the liquid accumulation in the pipeline during gas transmission, avoid the pressure fluctuation during the gas flow process, and reduce the pipeline profile; avoid laying the liquid drainage pipeline and reduce the investment cost.

[0012] 2. The present invention makes full use of the advantages of wet gas mixed transportation and wet gas separate transportation, and proposes a new type of gathering and transportation device and process different from the traditional gas-liquid separate transportation and gas-liquid mixed transportation. Its principle is to set a gas-liquid separator at the natural gas station to pre-separate the liquid-containing raw gas from the wellhead. The separated free liquid is pre-stored through the liquid storage tank. When the liquid storage tank reaches a certain load, the liquid in the liquid storage tank is injected into the liquid mixing cylinder for centralized liquid drainage. During the liquid drainage process, a corrosion inhibitor is added to the liquid phase to prevent pipeline corrosion; at the same time, the liquid plug can push and sweep to remove the liquid accumulation in the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe during the moving process.

[0029] Among them, the front isolation pig 15 and the rear isolation pig 16 include, but are not limited to, polyurethane foam pigs, mechanical pigs, isolation pigs, etc. A sealing gasket is sleeved on the outer periphery of the front isolation pig 15 (or the rear isolation pig 16) to strengthen the sealing effect between the outer periphery of the front isolation pig 15 (or the rear isolation pig 16) and the inner side wall of the liquid distribution cylinder 9.

[0030] A wet gas intermittent drainage gathering and transportation process includes the following steps: A. Normal exhaust: Open the first shut-off valve 20 and the fourth shut-off valve 23, and close the second shut-off valve 21, the third shut-off valve 22, the fifth shut-off valve 24, and the sixth shut-off valve 25. The gas-liquid mixture produced at the wellhead flows through the wellhead incoming flow pipe 1 and enters the gas-liquid separator 2. The gas-liquid separator 2 separates the gas-liquid mixture into a gas phase and a liquid phase. The gas phase sequentially flows through the gas transmission pipe 3 and the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe 7 and enters the gas gathering main station 8, and the liquid phase flows through the liquid transmission pipe 4 and enters the liquid storage tank 10.

[0031] Among them, the liquid storage tank 10 pre-stores the liquid phase. After the liquid storage tank 10 receives a certain amount of liquid, intermittent drainage is carried out through step B.

[0032] B. Intermittent drainage: Step 1: Place the rear isolation pig 16 inside the liquid distribution cylinder 9 near one end of the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipeline 7, and place the front isolation pig 15 inside the liquid distribution cylinder 9 near one end of the gas transmission pipe 3. The front isolation pig 15 and the rear isolation pig 16 are bound by a flexible steel member, and the front isolation pig 15 and the rear isolation pig 16 isolate a liquid storage cavity inside the liquid distribution cylinder 9.

[0033] Step 2: Open the third shut-off valve 22 on the liquid injection pipe 18, start the liquid delivery pump 13, and inject the liquid in the liquid storage tank 10 into the liquid storage cavity inside the liquid distribution cylinder 9. At the same time, open the fifth shut-off valve 24 on the chemical agent pipe 19, start the chemical agent pump 12, and the chemical agent pump 12 injects the corrosion inhibitor in the chemical agent tank 11 into the liquid storage cavity. The front isolation pig 15, the liquid at the liquid storage cavity, and the rear isolation pig 16 form a liquid plug.

[0034] Step 3: When it is observed that there is a liquid flow in the overflow pipe 14, it means that the liquid storage cavity is full of liquid. At this time, first close the third shut-off valve 22 and the fifth shut-off valve 24, stop the liquid delivery pump 13 and the chemical agent pump 12, and then close the sixth shut-off valve 25.

[0035] Step 4: Open the second shut-off valve 21 and close the first shut-off valve 20. The gas phase separated by the gas-liquid separator 2 sequentially flows through the gas transmission pipe 3, the gas injection pipe 17, and the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe 7 and enters the main gas gathering station 8. During the flow of this gas phase, the gas phase pushes the liquid plug to move. The liquid plug moves through the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe 7 and is removed at the main gas gathering station 8 (a pig receiver is provided at the main gas gathering station 8 for receiving the liquid plug), thereby achieving the purpose of liquid drainage.

[0036] Note: Regarding the necessity of transporting the separated liquid to the main gas gathering station 8, directly discharging the liquid near the natural gas station will cause pollution near the natural gas station and affect the normal operation and production safety of the natural gas station. Therefore, it is necessary to transport the liquid to the main gas gathering station 8 for centralized treatment.

[0037] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.

The gas-liquid separator (2) separates the gas-liquid mixture into gas phase and liquid phase. The gas phase sequentially flows through the gas transmission pipe (3) and the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe (7) and enters the gas gathering main station (8). The liquid phase flows through the liquid transmission pipe (4) and enters the liquid storage tank (10). B. Intermittent liquid drainage: Place the rear isolation pig (16) inside the liquid distribution cylinder (9) near one end of the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipeline (7), and place the front isolation pig (15) inside the liquid distribution cylinder (9) near one end of the gas transmission pipe (3). The front isolation pig (15) and the rear isolation pig (16) are bound by a flexible steel member. The front isolation pig (15) and the rear isolation pig (16) isolate a liquid storage cavity inside the liquid distribution cylinder (9). Open the third shut-off valve (22) on the liquid injection pipe (18), start the liquid delivery pump (13), and inject the liquid in the liquid storage tank (10) into the liquid storage cavity inside the liquid distribution cylinder (9). At the same time, open the fifth shut-off valve (24) on the chemical agent pipe (19), start the chemical agent pump (12), and the chemical agent pump (12) injects the corrosion inhibitor in the chemical agent tank (11) into the liquid storage cavity. The front isolation pig (15), the liquid at the liquid storage cavity, and the rear isolation pig (16) form a liquid plug. When it is observed that there is a liquid flow in the overflow pipe (14), it indicates that the liquid storage cavity is full of liquid. At this time, first close the third shut-off valve (22) and the fifth shut-off valve (24), stop the liquid delivery pump (13) and the chemical agent pump (12), and then close the sixth shut-off valve (25). Open the second shut-off valve (21), close the first shut-off valve 20. The gas phase separated by the gas-liquid separator (2) sequentially flows through the gas transmission pipe (3), the gas injection pipe (17), and the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe (7) and enters the gas gathering main station (8). During the flow of this gas phase, the gas phase pushes the liquid plug to move. The liquid plug moves through the gas-liquid mixed transmission pipe (7), and the liquid plug is taken out at the gas gathering main station (8).
