Energy Saving Measures of Oil and Gas Gathering System in Changqing Low Permeable Oilfield

Abstract:

Because of its property of low permeability, low pressure and low production, Changqing low permeable oilfield decreases rapidly in the initial potential stage and has low individual-well producing rate, which give rise to the overestimated oilfield production and large-scale ground construction project of gathering system. Eventually, the problem of “big Marathi car” in oil gathering system generated excessive energy consumption. It is multi-purpose station, pumping station and block station that turn out to be the main energy consumption point, which consume over 90% of system electric energy consumption. Besides, energy like natural gas is dissipated so severely that the utilization ratio of associated gas is less than 30%. This is obtained by analyzing energy distribution of system. For the seriously power-wasting problems in gathering system, energy saving technologies of small power pump replacing large power pump, intermittent pipelining oil by liquid level automatically controlled and double speed adjustment based on frequency control apply to the effective utilization of electric energy, which using oil pumps load rate as energy evaluation criterion. Applying technologies of helical down hole oil-gas separation and oil-gas airtight gathering to recover associated gas effectively gives conspicuous energy saving effect.
