The Research of Hydraulic Characteristics of High Water Cut Crude Oil Pipeline in Sabei Oilfield

Abstract:

Based on a large number of actual production data, the paper researches the hydraulic characteristics of high water cut crude oil pipeline in Sabei Oilfield and summarizes change rules of Hydraulic friction coefficient and Reynolds number of high water cut crude oil pipeline under different flow states. After making correction model of Hydraulic friction coefficient at different flow states and using the optimization technique to determine the coefficient in the model, based on C++ builder programming platform developed the software of pipeline hydraulic friction coefficient of correction. The results calculated from the software show that the correction model can significantly reduce the pipeline hydraulic calculation errors which are declined from more than 20% to less than 5%.
