1. Improve the efficiency of oil extraction
Ensure the normal operation of equipment: During the oil extraction process, a large amount of water is used for drilling, fracturing and other operations. If these waters contain impurities such as mud, rock cuttings, etc., they will cause wear and blockage to the extraction equipment. The large-flow water filter element can quickly filter these impurities to ensure that the water injected into the well or the water used for equipment cooling is clean. For example, in hydraulic fracturing operations, the water filtered by the large-flow water filter element can smoothly enter the formation, and the nozzle of the fracturing equipment will not be blocked due to impurities in the water, thereby ensuring that the fracturing operation can be carried out efficiently as planned, improving the overall efficiency of oil extraction.
Speed up the separation of oil and water: In the initial treatment stage after oil extraction, oil and water need to be separated. The large-flow water filter element can be used in the pretreatment link of the oil-water separation system to quickly remove suspended oil droplets and impurities in the water, making the subsequent oil-water separation process more efficient. For example, on some offshore oil extraction platforms, after pre-treating the produced fluid with a large-flow water filter element, the oil-water separation time is shortened by about 30%, greatly improving the processing speed of crude oil.
2. Improve the quality of petroleum products
Finely filter impurities: Petroleum may contain tiny solid particles, colloids and other impurities, which will affect the quality of petroleum products. High-flow water filter elements can finely filter petroleum and remove impurities with smaller particle sizes. For example, in the crude oil pretreatment process of the refinery, the high-flow water filter element can remove most impurities with a particle size greater than 5 microns, including some metal particles and sediment, thereby improving the purity of crude oil and helping to produce higher quality gasoline, diesel and other petroleum products.
Reducing pollutant content: High-flow water filter elements can also filter out some harmful pollutants in petroleum, such as sulfide particles. In the process of petroleum processing, reducing the content of these pollutants can reduce the emission of harmful gases produced after the combustion of petroleum products and improve the environmental performance of the products. For example, in some areas with high requirements for oil quality, after the refinery uses high-flow water filter elements, the sulfur content in the petroleum products produced is reduced by about 20%, which meets more stringent environmental standards.
3. Reduce production costs
Reduce the frequency of equipment maintenance and replacement: By filtering impurities in water and oil, high-flow water filter elements can effectively protect mining and processing equipment and reduce equipment wear and corrosion. For example, in the water injection system of oil extraction, after using a large flow water filter, the maintenance frequency of the water injection equipment has been reduced from 4-5 times a year to 1-2 times, greatly reducing the equipment maintenance cost. At the same time, it also extends the service life of the equipment, reduces the frequency of equipment replacement, and further saves costs.
Optimize the process flow: The application of large flow water filter can optimize the process flow of oil extraction and processing. For example, in some small oil extraction companies, the use of large flow water filter can simplify the original complex filtration links, reduce the demand for multiple small filtration equipment, reduce the purchase and operation costs of equipment, and improve the overall production efficiency.
