Electric heating plays an important role in preventing the pipe column of the gas field collector from clogging.
The blockage of the gas production column from gas wells often occurs in the development of gas reservoirs, especially in the high-pressure gas well production stage. The method of providing electric heating at the wellhead can effectively prevent the lockable gas tree column from clogging and avoid high pressure operation, which is an effective and safe measure to prevent clogging.

The blockage of the gas production column from gas wells often occurs in the development of gas reservoirs, especially in the high-pressure gas well production stage. The method of creating electric heating at the wellhead can effectively prevent the ingot column of the gas reinforcement from being blocked, and the high-pressure operation on the ice surface is an effective and safe anti-lock measure.
Experience in the development of many gas fields at home and abroad shows that hydrates are one of the most common factors causing blockages of gas wells and onshore gas pipelines. On the example of a gas field in southwest China, the mouth pressure of the gas reservoir in this gas field is more than 20 MPa, and the flow rate is more than 30 MPa. The lower limit of the hydrating temperature is 26 ° C. That is, when the temperature is below 26 °C, even if there is no throttling and depressurization, hydrates will form, leading to the blocking of the column.
In addition, hydrates and crystalline paraffin form under certain temperature-baric conditions under the flow of oily and water-containing fluids in gas formations, so the crystallization of paraffins is another cause of blockage of wellheads in gas formations.
In the past, the most commonly used method of clogging control was the addition of a chemical alcohol or agent to remove paraffin and antiparaffin. Paraffin. However, these processes cannot avoid high-pressure operations or downhole operations. There are certain risks from an economic and safety perspective.
Since the blockage of the gas well melts at a temperature of 30-60 ° C, and the depth of the dam is within 300 m in the well, it is proposed to use heat heating and heat preservation of the twister well head, as well as use the thermal conductivity effect. Oil pipelines to increase the temperature of the liquid in the surface attachment column, the formation of hydrates and the crystallization of paraffins cause clogging. Among them, electric heating products use electric heating cables, and their structure is shown in the figure.

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.
