What electric heating cables can generally be used on offshore oil platforms
The offshore platform performs tasks of oil production, oil storage and transportation of oil products through pipelines to tankers for transportation to land. The use of electric heating allows the oil production equipment of the offshore oil platform to work normally, and oil products to be transported and stored normally in such harsh conditions.

Offshore platforms undertake the tasks of extracting, storing and transporting oil through pipelines to tankers and transporting it to land, therefore, whether it is the extraction, storage and transport of oil or the normal operation and maintenance of any equipment associated with this, including lubrication. Working condition of oil, heat transfer oil, etc. D. Cannot cause the problem of freezing in extremely low temperatures. The use of electric heating allows the oil production equipment of the offshore oil platform to work normally, and oil products to be transported and stored normally in such harsh conditions.
On the other hand, because the platform is located in the sea, the relative humidity is much higher than on the ground platform. It is precisely because of the high humidity that the equipment on the offshore oil exploration platform is more likely to be exposed to water vapor and rain When the temperature drops below 0 °C, for example on the deck If in such places, As a helipad, etc. E., there is residual water, it freezes easily, which creates many dangers for normal operation. In addition, in the case of low temperature, static water or dynamic water in other pipelines on the offshore platform, such as fire water pipes, sewer pipes, clean water pipes, etc. E., are also susceptible to freezing problems, which adversely affects normal operation. Work and life, so these problems All emphasized the importance of applying electric heating systems on offshore oil platforms.
Electric heating uses electrical energy to heat the pipeline When the heat supplied is equivalent to that of the pipeline, the pipeline can maintain a relatively constant temperature under these conditions. General electric heating cables for offshore platforms mainly include:
Low temperature self temperature control electric heating cable
Self-regulating temperature heating cable is the only new generation constant temperature band electric heater. The resistivity of the heating element has a very high positive temperature coefficient "PTC" (Positive Temperature Coefficient) and are connected in parallel with each other. The use of electric heating allows the water temperature in the fire extinguishing pipe and the clean water pipe to be maintained between 0 °C and 5 °C to ensure the normal operation of the fire extinguishing pipe.

Electrical heating installation precautions
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.
