Application of electric heating rod production technology to prevent oil wells and paraffin removal
Paraffin deduction in oil wells is one of the outstanding issues affecting the high productivity and stability of oil wells. Paraffin prevention and paraffin removal are important elements of oil well management.

The phenomenon of the deposition of paraffin in oil wells is common in the process of oil field development. In the process of crude oil extraction, due to the decrease in temperature and pressure and the yield of light hydrocarbons, paraffin dissolved in crude oil will be deposited as crystals and adsorbed on the walls of tubing and casing, oil well pumps and other oil production equipment. Paraffin deduction in oil wells is one of the outstanding issues affecting the high productivity and stability of oil wells. Paraffin prevention and paraffin removal are important elements of oil well management.
Commonly used paraffin removal measures: hot washing, heating, ultrasound, microorganisms. However, there are many problems in actual operation. Some low-pressure wells are easily washed, causing contamination of the formation, and no liquid is formed during well flushing, but the paraffin deposition is serious, so the well needs to be flushed to remove the paraffin, and sometimes it is necessary to flush the well to remove the gridlock to restore production.
Power outages can easily solidify crude oil in the wellbore, causing pumps to jam, and frequent removal of plugs can easily damage the formation, cause secondary pollution and form a vicious circle.
Although these paraffin and paraffin removal measures have a certain effect, it is impossible to fundamentally solve the two main problems in the actual production. To solve these problems, it is necessary not to perform cleaning, power off and pump jamming Oil extraction technology with electric heating rod It can do both of these things.
The electric heating rod oil extraction technology mainly uses the principle of electric heating to lower the cable through the hollow pumping rod into the well. After the power is turned on, the well cable is used to heat the pumping rod and then heat the crude oil in the pipe, So that the kit can dissolve the pumped oil The wax on the rod plays the role of removing and preventing the paraffin, and can keep the crude oil temperature in the wellbore above the freezing point and the paraffin deposition point. Thus, the problem of paraffin deposition is fundamentally solved, the vertical way of dosing antiparaffin and washing the well to remove the paraffin is stopped, the contamination caused by the formation of the well washing brigade is eliminated, and the oil layer is protected. The problem of pump jamming caused by power failure is also solved. After power on, first heat the wellbore to melt the condensed oil in the wellbore, and then start pumping out the well to prevent the pump from getting stuck due to crude oil. Oil setting, and there is no need to clean the well or check the pump. The map is solved.
The whole set of process equipment includes: power distribution cabinet, hollow pumping rod and special cables. The switchboard is placed on the ground. After the cable comes out of the electrical cabinet, the Unicom hollow rod is lowered together to a depth of about 1000 m. The cable and the pumping rod form a circuit. The cable is equivalent to the resistive wire., the main heating element, and the heat will decrease after the power is turned on. It is transferred to the pumping rod, and the pumping rod is equivalent to zero line, and the voltage to the ground is zero, so people will not get an electric shock when touching it.
In 2021, the oil field in Tangshan adopted our Huaning electric heating rod oil production device. After more than a year of field application, the effect was satisfactory and the expected goal was achieved. It only needs to be heated regularly without taking any other measures to maintain normal oil well production, which reduces management complexity, improves oil production rate, ensures production completion and prolongs the well's non-repair period. Oil well, saving a lot of maintenance fees and operating costs, reducing operating costs.

Electric heating cable is a heating method that uses insulation resistance or resistance heating wire to create a temperature after power supply. It can automatically adjust the output temperature and reasonably maintain the process temperature requirements to keep warm, raise the temperature and protect the heating equipment from freezing. The insulation and antifreeze effect of the container is very good.
Which electric heating should be chosen for the main pipeline transport of heavy oil
Transport of heavy oil through the pipeline over long distances and long-term retention in the pipeline will result in a drop in temperature due to heat dissipation and increased viscosity, which will cause the pipeline to be blocked by freezing or condensation-related accidents. Electric heating is widely used as effective insulation of pipelines and anti-freeze protection.
Which electric heating cable should be considered for a 4 km pipeline
According to the statistics of the Hydrometeorological Center, the average daily minimum temperature at the location of the CNPC tank farm is 5 ° C, and the average daily maximum temperature is 14 ° C. Since the freezing point of the PX is about 15 °C, the supply pipeline needs heat preservation and heating. The oil depot has been in operation for many years without a stable source of steam, therefore, this project is considering the use of electric heating technology.
Application of outdoor electric heating cable in oil main pipelines with high paraffin content
Long-distance crude oil pipelines with a high paraffin content with freezing temperatures above 50 °C. According to the requirements of the production plan of the plant, the volume of oil transportation through the pipeline is 150 thousand rubles. Tons per year, maximum-200 thousand. Tons per year.. According to the thermodynamic analysis of the pipeline, the initial supply temperature of the pipeline is 80 ° C (TN), and the temperature of the end entering the tank is 60 ° C (Tu). Since the transportation temperature needs to be adjusted according to the time of year, it sometimes needs to be transported by heat.
What heating product to choose for main infusion pipelines
In petrochemical engineering, trunk infusion pipelines are the lifeblood of the factories. The temperature in the northern region is too low in winter and the pipeline needs to be insulated to compensate for the heat loss due to the low temperature in winter to ensure the normal operation of the pipeline.
The role of leather tracer cables in the insulation of asphalt main pipelines
The toughness of the asphalt is greatly affected by the temperature. When the temperature decreases, the toughness of the asphalt increases, and the drop in resistance of the asphalt during pipeline transportation increases; when the temperature falls below the freezing point, the asphalt solidifies, causing the pipeline to clog and the conveyor belt to come to trouble. Therefore, electric heating and heat preservation during the transportation of asphalt are very important.
