METHOD FOR REGULATING THE EVACUATION OF PHASES FROM SEPARATOR TANK

摘要

The invention relates to the oil and gas extraction industry, and specifically to the field of oil extraction technology, and can be used for providing the necessary conditions for rapidly determining the contents of main phases and components in an oil-and-gas fluid exiting a well, while measuring, as the flow passes, quantity and indicators of quality. A method for regulating the evacuation of a liquid phase and a gas phase from a wellbore fluid separator tank along two separate measurement channels, and allowing for measuring, as the flows pass, quantitative indicators for the liquid and gas, and subsequently uniting said flows into a single flow for eventually transporting same; wherein, a flow regulator, which is installed in a gas line, is used for maintaining, within set limits, the pressure in the separator tank, so that same exceeds the pressure in a chamber for mixing the liquid and the gas, and a flow regulator located in a liquid line is used for maintaining the level of liquid in the separator tank. The invention allows for effectively maintaining a level of separation of media (liquid/gas) in the separator tank, while simultaneously maintaining, within set limits, the pressure in the separator tank, so that same exceeds the pressure in the chamber for mixing the liquid and the gas.
