Description

Technical Field

[0002] As offshore oil and gas field development enters its mid-to-late stages, the water content of downhole produced fluids continues to rise. After oil-water separation, a large amount of oily wastewater is generated that fails to meet environmental protection requirements and needs treatment. Simultaneously, there is a significant demand for reservoir water injection to increase production. To meet the production water treatment needs of offshore oil fields, facilities with a daily treatment capacity of 18,000 m³ / s have been successively constructed and put into operation. 3 and 30000m 3 Large-scale production water fine treatment systems can solve the environmental problem of large-scale oily wastewater discharge and achieve the recycling of production water, addressing the water source needs of large reservoirs for injection. However, the solid-liquid separation of backwash water in production water treatment systems is affected by factors such as the flocculation and sedimentation effect of chemical agents, sedimentation time, and system processing speed. The quality of the backwash water chemical desludge removal process significantly impacts the system's construction scale, treatment efficiency, investment, and operating costs. Currently, onshore oilfields, not limited by equipment installation space, generally construct numerous sedimentation tanks to extend the sedimentation time of backwash water to achieve solid-liquid separation. However, offshore oilfields, due to limited platform space, cannot install sedimentation tanks of sufficient capacity, leading to difficulties in backwash water desludge removal.
