Problems solved by technology

Low-dose hydrate inhibitors include hydrate kinetic inhibitors and antipolymerization agents; among them, kinetic inhibitors are mainly suitable for gas-water two-phase systems, and kinetic inhibitors represented by poly N-ethylene caprolactam have limited inhibitory activity. High, usually used under supercooling conditions, and it is easy to fail when it exceeds 10°C, especially its poor biodegradability, so many offshore oil fields restrict its use; and the anti-polymerization agent can only play a role when the oil phase exists, once the system When the moisture content in the anti-polymerization agent exceeds 50wt%, the anti-polymerization effect will fail. In addition, the anti-polymerization agent also has many problems such as high synthesis cost and high toxicity, so it is gradually restricted in use.

Embodiment 1

[0028] The hydrate inhibitor of this embodiment is proline, and the method for using it to inhibit hydrate comprises the following steps:

[0029] 1. Solution preparation

[0030] The proline was completely dissolved in deionized water to prepare a proline solution with a molar concentration of 3 mol / L (mass concentration was 34.5%).

[0031] 2. Hydrate inhibition

[0032] use figure 1 The reaction system shown was subjected to the hydrate inhibition test, wherein: the system used in this example was a gas-water system, the hydrate inhibitor was a 3mol / L proline solution, and the gas was CH 4 , the constant temperature and pressure search method is used to obtain the equilibrium condition of the hydrate, and the experimental temperature is set to 9.99°C. The specific steps are as follows:

[0033] 1) Use the vacuum pump 1 to evacuate the reactor 2, and then use negative pressure to inhale deionized water to clean the reactor 2 until it is cleaned;

[0034] 2) Rinse the rea...

Embodiment 2

[0045] The system used in this example is a gas-water system, the hydrate inhibitor is a 3mol / L proline solution, and the gas is CH 4 , the constant temperature and pressure search method was used to obtain the equilibrium condition of hydrate, the experimental temperature was set at 6.11°C, and the hydrate inhibition test was carried out using the same steps as in Example 1.

[0046] After testing, in this embodiment, after trace hydrates exist stably and the pressure is stable for 4 hours, the obtained equilibrium pressure value is 9.0Mpa; at the same time, the blank control test (i.e. replace the above-mentioned proline with deionized water without proline Acid solution) obtained equilibrium pressure value is 4.69Mpa.

[0047] This shows that: at about 6°C, the hydrate inhibitor of this example can increase the equilibrium pressure value by 4.31Mpa when the concentration is 3mol / L, indicating that the hydrate inhibitor can significantly improve the formation conditions of h...

Embodiment 3

[0049] The system used in this example is a gas-water system, the hydrate inhibitor is a proline solution with a mass concentration of 21.9 wt%, and the gas is CH 4 , the constant temperature and pressure search method was used to obtain the equilibrium condition of hydrate, the experimental temperature was set at 10.0°C, and the hydrate inhibition test was carried out using the same steps as in Example 1.

[0050] After testing, in this embodiment, after trace hydrates exist stably and the pressure is stable for 4 hours, the obtained equilibrium pressure value is 9.36Mpa; at the same time, the blank control test (i.e. replace the above-mentioned proline with deionized water without proline Acid solution) obtained equilibrium pressure value is 7.25Mpa.

[0051] This shows that: at about 10°C, the hydrate inhibitor of this example can increase the equilibrium pressure value by 2.11Mpa when the mass concentration is 21.9wt%, indicating that the hydrate inhibitor can significantl...

Abstract

The invention provides a hydrate inhibitor and application thereof. The hydrate inhibitor provided by the invention is prepared from proline; a hydrate inhibiting method comprises the step of adoptingthe hydrate inhibitor for inhibiting the generation of a hydrate in an inhibition system, wherein the system is an oil-water system, a gas-water system or an oil-water-gas system. The hydrate inhibitor provided by the invention is low in toxicity, non-volatile, easy to degrade, environmentally-friendly and the like; in addition, a balance condition of hydrate generation can be greatly improved, and the hydrate inhibitor has favorable a thermodynamics inhibiting effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of oil and gas production, and in particular relates to a hydrate inhibitor and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Some low molecular weight gases and some volatile liquids, such as C1~C4 light hydrocarbons, N 2 , O 2 , CO 2 、H 2 S, ethylene oxide, tetrahydrofuran, and halogenated alkanes can form non-stoichiometric cage crystals with water under certain temperature and pressure conditions, which are usually called clathrate hydrates, or hydrates for short. There are mainly three types of structures: Type I, Type II and Type H. For a long time, pipeline blockage caused by gas hydrate formation has been a thorny problem for the oil and gas production and transportation sector; especially for the development of offshore oil and gas fields and deep-sea transportation of oil and gas, the hydrate problem is particularly prominent, mainly due to the water temperature and pressure of the seabed The condi...
