Oilfield energy saving and storage

What is the energy consumption in oilfields?

The energy consumption in oilfields is relatively high, except for the drilling, energy is required for crude oil transport, acid gas treatment, and gas dehydration. However, with the low level of energy management strategy in some of the oilfields, the energy utilisation efficiency has great potential to be improved.

Can oilfield production management reduce energy consumption for Tahe oil field?

With the increase of water content and the number of shutdown wells in old areas, the existing gathering and transportation mode can no longer meet the energy saving demands of oilfield production for Tahe oil field. Therefore, it is an urgent need of oilfield production management to reduce energy consumption.

What is oil & gas transport & storage?

The oil & gas transport and storage (OGTS) engineering, from the upstream of gathering and processing in the oil & gas fields, to the midstream long-distance pipelines, and the downstream tanks and LNG terminals, while using supply chains to connect each part, is exploring its way to reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints.

How can oil and gas processing reduce energy consumption?

In terms of oil and gas processing, there are also many studies to achieve energy conservation and consumption reduction. This kind of research focuses on improving the recovery rate of energy, especially the recovery efficiency of heat energy.

Which is the most energy saving gathering mode for China's oilfields?

The energy consumption and operation cost were calculated, and the comparative analysis results showed that, for these four wells, the most energy saving gathering mode was the branch connection form of pipe network. 1. Introduction China's oilfields are mostly composed of waxy crude oil.

Is oil and gas transport and storage engineering entering a new era?

Conclusions and Future Directions With the fast development of low-carbon and sustainable measures implemented in oil and gas transport and storage engineering, this industry is entering a new era.
