Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas station technology, specifically to a hybrid model-driven joint control and operation optimization system for oil and gas stations. Background Technology
[0002] With the accelerated global energy transition, the oil and gas industry is placing higher demands on the efficient, energy-saving, and intelligent operation of oil and gas depots. As key hubs for oil and gas gathering, processing, and export, the operational efficiency and stability of oil and gas depots directly impact the security of energy supply and the economic benefits of enterprises. However, traditional oil and gas depot operation and management mainly rely on single mechanistic models or empirical rules, which are difficult to adapt to complex and changing operating conditions and increasingly stringent energy efficiency and environmental protection requirements; specifically, they suffer from the following problems:
[0003] 1. Mechanistic model:
[0004] 1.1 Insufficient Accuracy in Simulating Complex Operating Conditions: Existing mechanistic models for key facilities in stations struggle to accurately describe the mass and heat transfer processes between phases and the dynamic characteristics of equipment when facing complex multiphase flow conditions. For example, when a three-phase separator processes an oil-gas mixture containing a large amount of emulsion or impurities, the mechanistic model based on traditional thermodynamics and fluid mechanics theories shows significant deviations between the simulated values and actual measurements of separation efficiency and the content of each phase component. This results in an inability to accurately guide the adjustment of separator operating parameters, potentially leading to increased oil and gas losses or blockages in downstream equipment.
[0005] 1.2 Delayed Model Parameter Updates: During long-term operation, the physical characteristics of equipment in the station change due to factors such as wear and scaling. However, the parameters of the mechanistic model often fail to be updated in a timely manner to reflect the actual condition of the equipment. Taking an export pump as an example, as the impeller wears, the pump's efficiency curve shifts. If the mechanistic model still uses the initial design parameters, the simulated values of key indicators such as flow rate and pressure will gradually deviate from the actual values on site, affecting the accurate assessment and control of the pump's operating status.
[0006] 2. AI Models
[0007] 2.1 Data Quality and Quantity Limitations: The data acquisition systems of some older oil and gas depots are incomplete, exhibiting problems such as missing data, high noise levels, and poor time synchronization, resulting in low-quality data used for training AI models. For example, key parameters of the heating furnace, such as furnace temperature and fuel gas flow rate, may contain missing or outlier values. This prevents the big data-based virtual metering AI model from fully learning the operating patterns of the heating furnace during training, leading to inaccurate virtual metering results and failing to provide a reliable basis for optimizing the heating furnace's energy efficiency.
[0008] 2.2 Insufficient Model Generalization Ability: AI models trained solely on historical data exhibit poor generalization ability when faced with unprecedented extreme operating conditions or new equipment and processes. For example, when the operating conditions of an external pump suddenly change drastically, such as a significant change in the viscosity or density of the transported medium, and the training data lacks data for such conditions, the operation optimization AI model may be unable to accurately predict the optimal operating range of key parameters, leading to a decrease in pump efficiency or even equipment failure.
[0009] 3. Joint regulation and control
[0010] 3.1 Challenges in Model Integration: Differences in modeling principles, data requirements, and time scales between mechanistic models and AI models make their integration difficult. Mechanistic models focus on the physical nature and causal relationships of equipment, with slower computation speeds but stronger interpretability; AI models rely on data-driven approaches, with faster computation speeds but poorer interpretability. Effectively addressing these differences in real-time performance and accuracy to achieve complementary advantages during joint control is a pressing issue. For example, in the temperature control of a heating furnace, mechanistic models can provide the physical mechanisms of temperature changes, but require significant real-time computation; AI models can quickly provide temperature predictions, but lack a deep understanding of the combustion process, making it difficult for the two to work together to achieve precise temperature control.
[0011] 3.2 Difficulty in Balancing Multiple Objectives: The operation of oil and gas stations requires balancing multiple objectives, including optimal energy efficiency, flexible load, and equipment lifespan. Traditional control technologies often struggle to achieve this balance. For example, pursuing optimal energy efficiency for export pumps may lead to excessively high pump operating pressure, increasing equipment wear and shortening its lifespan. Conversely, considering flexible load to adapt to fluctuations in upstream gas flow may sacrifice some energy efficiency. Current control systems lack effective multi-objective optimization algorithms and models, making it impossible to find the optimal balance point for each objective under different operating conditions.

[0052] Compared with existing technologies:
[0053] 1. Breakthrough advantages in addressing mechanistic modeling problems
[0054] 1.1 Multi-dimensional data fusion modeling: By integrating equipment design parameters, real-time operating data and process characteristics, a refined mechanism model containing multiphase flow dynamics and mass and heat transfer laws is constructed, which solves the problem that traditional models are insufficient in describing complex working conditions such as emulsion separation and equipment aging.
[0055] 1.2 Dynamic Parameter Adaptive Adjustment: Sensitivity analysis and error quantification assessment are introduced to address parameter drift caused by equipment wear, scaling, etc. Key parameters of the model are dynamically corrected through on-site measured data, reducing the error between simulated and actual values and significantly improving the model's adaptability to changes in equipment status.
[0056] 1.3 Not only is the debugging based on normal operating condition data, but also the measured data of abnormal operating conditions are incorporated. Through modular modeling and system integration, the dynamic characteristics of equipment in multiple scenarios can be accurately simulated, solving the prediction deviation problem of traditional models under extreme operating conditions.
[0057] 2. Core capabilities to overcome AI model bottlenecks
[0058] 2.1 Virtual Data Augmentation Technology: To address the issue of missing data in old stations and warehouses, the missing operating condition data is generated by simulating using a mechanism model. This data is then integrated with actual production data to construct a large-scale training set. Combined with data cleaning and normalization preprocessing, the accuracy of the virtual metering AI model is greatly improved, breaking through the limitations of simply relying on historical data.
[0059] 2.2 Online Dynamic Optimization Algorithm: A real-time model update mechanism is established. Through incremental learning technology, the AI model can automatically adapt to new equipment characteristics or extreme working conditions. The generalization ability is greatly improved compared with the traditional static model, effectively solving the problems of "data cold start" and failure of prediction due to sudden changes in working conditions.
[0060] 2.3 In the operation optimization AI model, the mechanism analysis and data mining are integrated by combining weighting method to accurately quantify the weight of energy efficiency influencing factors, avoid the "black box" defect of the purely data-driven model, so that the optimization strategy is both in line with physical laws and supported by data, and ensures that reliable optimal operating range can still be output under extreme working conditions.
[0061] 3. Innovative breakthroughs in joint regulation technology
[0062] 3.1 Dynamic division of labor mechanism: Under normal working conditions, the AI model takes the lead in real-time control, taking advantage of its data-driven rapid decision-making. Under abnormal working conditions or critical operations, the mechanism model is triggered to verify physical constraints, which solves the contradiction between real-time performance and safety in traditional single models.
[0063] 3.2 Multi-objective optimization function: A three-dimensional objective function including energy efficiency, flexible load and equipment life is constructed, which breaks through the limitation of "secondary problems caused by single-objective optimization" in traditional control technology.
[0064] Unified feature space construction: Extract the physical features of the mechanism model and the data features of the AI model, and form a fused feature vector through principal component analysis to solve the "language barrier" caused by the difference in modeling principles between the two types of models.
[0065] 3.3 Bayesian Fusion Decision: A confidence evaluation system for the mechanistic model and the AI model is established using a Bayesian network. The outputs of the two are dynamically and dynamically fused in real time, which greatly improves the accuracy of joint control compared with a single model and significantly enhances the robustness of the system under complex working conditions.
[0066] 4. Systematic guarantees for technology implementation
[0067] 4.1 Full-process verification system: From single-device debugging of mechanism model to full-system joint debugging of dual-mode joint control, a three-level verification mechanism of "simulation verification → semi-physical test → field pilot" is established to ensure seamless integration of technical solutions with actual production environment.
[0068] 4.2 Intelligent Operation and Maintenance Support: Through real-time monitoring of model errors and AI model performance evaluation, it provides on-site engineers with visual diagnostic tools, solving the pain point of traditional model "optimization relying on human experience" and reducing the cost of technology implementation and maintenance.

For example, for external pumps, the impeller speed and inlet / outlet valve openings that maximize pump efficiency are predicted based on different flow rates and medium characteristics. For heating furnaces, the optimal fuel gas flow rate and excess air coefficient are predicted based on the medium throughput and target outlet temperature, thereby achieving AI optimization of key facilities and improving energy utilization efficiency.
