Modeling of the Process of Filling a Dome Separator with the Decomposition of a Gas Hydrate Formed During the Mounting of the Installation

Article

Consideration is given to the theoretical foundations of operation of a dome separator designed to collect and subsequently ship gas and oil emissions in the case of fracturing of the well near deep-water reservoirs where thermobaric conditions are favorable for the formation of a gas hydrate. A mathematical model has been constructed that describes the process of filling the indicated dome with hydrocarbons and pumping them out it under hydrate-formation conditions. The dynamics of change in the phase temperature in the dome has been described.

Keywords
