[0024] Crude oil stabilization systems are crucial production systems in oilfield surface operations. Crude oil stabilization involves processing the crude oil gathered and transported in a closed system to separate and recover light hydrocarbons such as methane, ethane, propane, and butane, yielding high-value-added products like light oil. This process also reduces the evaporation loss of remaining products after stabilization. However, current positive-pressure heating stabilization systems suffer from high energy consumption and poor economic efficiency. To achieve high-quality oilfield development and improve economic efficiency, it is urgent to conduct optimization research on the existing stabilization system's processes and operating parameters.

[0025] This application provides a method for optimizing parameters of a positive pressure heated crude oil stabilization system, including steps S100-S400, such as... Figure 1 As shown:

[0027] S200: Input the crude oil component parameters into the crude oil stability simulation model, and sequentially set the furnace outlet temperature to different temperature values ​​T. n A positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization process simulation was conducted to obtain the results at various temperature values ​​T. n Achieving maximum light hydrocarbon production Q under these conditions n The corresponding stabilizer tower top pressure P n and fuel consumption F n , where n = 1, 2, ..., N;

[0028] S300: Calculate the corresponding revenue value A based on each set of production and energy consumption data. n Each set of production and energy consumption data includes the highest light hydrocarbon production Q. n and the fuel consumption F n ;

[0029] S400: In N said revenue values ​​A n Obtain the maximum profit value, and set the T corresponding to the maximum profit value. n and P n These are respectively used as the optimal furnace outlet temperature and the optimal stabilizer tower top pressure.

[0030] In this embodiment, the crude oil stabilization simulation model is a computer simulation model established based on the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization system. It can reflect the process flow, various production equipment and their parameters of the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization system. The crude oil stabilization simulation model includes at least a stabilization tower module and a tower preheater module. The stabilization tower module is a simulation model of the stabilization tower in the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization system, and the tower preheater module is a simulation model of the tower preheater in the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization system. The parameters of the stabilization tower module include at least the stabilization tower top pressure, and the parameters of the tower preheater module include at least the heater outlet temperature.

The removed light hydrocarbons flow out from the top of the stabilization tower module, and the remaining stabilized crude oil flows out from the bottom of the stabilization tower module.

[0032] In this embodiment, when performing step S200, the furnace outlet temperature of the tower front heating furnace module can be set to N temperature values ​​T. n The furnace outlet temperature was gradually adjusted from low to high. After fixing the furnace outlet temperature at a certain value, the tower top pressure was adjusted sequentially from low to high. Positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization process simulation was conducted to obtain the correspondence between light hydrocarbon production and tower top pressure. The tower top pressure corresponding to the highest light hydrocarbon production was taken as the stabilization tower top pressure P. n .

[0034] In this embodiment, by executing steps S300 and S400, the revenue value A corresponding to each set of production energy consumption data is calculated. n The set of production process data (T) corresponding to the maximum profit value n P n () serves as the optimal furnace outlet temperature and the optimal stabilizer tower top pressure.

[0035] The parameter optimization method for the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization system in this embodiment simulates the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization process under different heater outlet temperatures and different stabilizer tower top pressures using a crude oil stabilization simulation model. This method can optimize the parameters of the heater outlet temperature and stabilizer tower top pressure. Combined with the analysis of light hydrocarbon production and fuel consumption, it ensures maximum economic benefits while saving energy, protecting the environment, and reducing production costs. This provides a scientific and feasible parameter optimization scheme for the actual production and operation of the positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization system.

The obtained optimization parameters (T) are... n P n This approach not only aligns with actual production practices and satisfies the stable production conditions of crude oil under positive pressure heating, but also maximizes economic benefits.

[0047] In this embodiment, the outlet temperature of the heating furnace is fixed at one of the T values. n Then, the pressure step size p can be set to (Pmax -P min ) / (M-1), set M tower top pressures respectively, and set the tower top pressures sequentially as P0 = P min ,P0+p,P0+2p,P0+3p,…,P0+(M-1)p=P max That is, at a temperature value T n Next, run the crude oil stability simulation model M times; complete steps S220-S230, a total of N*M times of crude oil stability simulation model running is required; for each temperature value T n The corresponding stabilizer tower top pressure P n For M pressure values ​​P min ,P0+p,P0+2p,P0+3p,…,P0+(M-1)p=P max One of the values.

[0048] In this embodiment, with a fixed furnace outlet temperature, the light hydrocarbon production will vary with changes in the tower top pressure, with the maximum light hydrocarbon production Q. n The corresponding pressure at the top of the tower is the pressure P at the top of the steady-state tower. n .

[0049] In one exemplary embodiment, step S200 involves obtaining the "fuel consumption F". n "This may include step S240:

[0050] S240: For each group T n and P n As production process data, the pressure at the top of the stabilizer module is set to P. n The outlet temperature of the heating furnace of the tower front heating furnace module is set to T. n The positive pressure heating crude oil stabilization process is simulated to obtain the fuel consumption F corresponding to the production process data. n .

[0051] In this embodiment, each group (T) n P n As production process data, production process conditions are set, namely, the heater outlet temperature and tower top pressure are set respectively. The crude oil stability simulation model is run to simulate the positive pressure heating crude oil stability process and obtain the fuel consumption F under these production process conditions. n Among them, fuel consumption F n At a minimum, this includes the fuel consumption required for heating by the pre-tower heater.
