Study on Technical Limits of Single-Pipe Concatenation Gathering Process during High Water-Cut Stage

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to optimize the gathering system and reduce the energy consumption in the production, single-pipe concatenation process has been widely used after the tertiary oil recovery technique is applied and development enters into high water cut stage in the oilfield. Aiming at condensate oil in gathering pipeline and obvious increase of the high circle pressure wells in the operation of the process, the adaption relationship between oil gathering pipeline size and flow, as well as the temperature limit of the gathering system start are studied, through the hydraulic and thermodynamic calculations of oil-gas-water multiphase flow. It has directive function for making effective schemes to solve the production problems caused by the high back pressure of wells.
