Study on Desanding Technology Based on Gravity Sedimentation in Oil Gathering and Transportation Station

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper is about the study on desanding technology based on the characteristics of the produced fluid and the principle of the suspension gravity settling. Proposed a new type of three-phase separator by analyzing the species of gravity desanding and the main influencing factors of sedimentation (including particle properties, liquid properties, solid-liquid ratio, containers and stir) .The inclined plane is substituted by a plane on the internal components of the container, which makes the sand deposits easily and then removed by desander. The design principle of the desander is based on the principle of jetting pump (the desanding technology in airtight container). It has been applied to oil filed successfully and provides a reference for further study.
