Springback Coefficient

Dent is a common form of defect on oil and gas pipeline. Some dents will undergo elastic or plastic recovery due to changes in internal pressure, also known as springback. To analyze the springback law of an API X60 pipeline with a dent defect, the secondary development technology of finite element software ABAQUS was used for parametric modeling of a dented pipeline. Using this model, the effects of various factors (wall thickness, internal pressure, indenter size, dent location, and dent depth) on the springback coefficient of a dented pipeline were analyzed. The significance of each factor was analyzed by combining an orthogonal experimental design with the Grey correlation degree. Finally, nonlinear regression analysis was used to obtain formulas for the springback coefficient as a function of the influential factors. The results show that the springback coefficient of the dented pipeline after pressurization was between 0.15 and 0.65, and the factor that had the largest effect on the springback coefficient was the dent location. The springback coefficient of the dented pipeline after de-pressurization was between 1.1 and 1.5, and the factor that had the largest effect on the springback coefficient was the internal pressure. The formulas that relate the springback coefficient and various influential factors can be used as a reference for estimating the springback of dented pipelines.

Dent Depth

During pipeline construction, the pipeline may be impacted by sharp rocks or excavators. To study the failure mechanism of the pipeline, the damage degree and springback rate of the pipelines with two typical dents (transverse and longitudinal) were analyzed in terms of various factors (indenter size, pipeline size and internal pressure, and dent depth). The results reveal the following: (1) when pipeline size and internal pressure are unchanged and indenter size is changed, the integral value I used to measure the damage degree of the dented pipeline increases with increasing dent depth. When the dent depth reaches a certain value, at the same dent depth, the smaller the indenter size, the larger the damage integral value; (2) when other parameters remain unchanged, the larger the pipeline size is, the larger is the damage integral value, and the larger the internal pressure is, the smaller is the damage integral value. (3) The curves for damage and springback for the two kinds of dents are basically similar. Generally, the maximum damage of the longitudinal dent is larger than that of the transverse dent. (4) By a combination of an orthogonal experimental design and a gray correlation degree calculation, for the damage integral value of the two typical dented pipelines, the order of importance of the influential factors was obtained. (5) Formulas for the damage integral value and influence factors were fit using a nonlinear regression method, which provides a reference for calculation of pipeline damage.

Engine Crankshaft

This paper presents an integrated method, which is based on the CAD/CAE, for engine crankshaft design. A parametric modeling system of engine crankshaft is established with the CATIA secondary development tools. Taking advantage of the finite element analysis procedure of engine crankshaft strength which is programmed with ANSYS APDL programming language, the parametric loading, automatic solution and result analysis of the crankshaft strength can be realized. Integrating the parametric modeling system of engine crankshaft and the special finite element analysis procedure of the engine crankshaft strength, the three-dimensional digital model of the crankshaft can be generated rapidly. By changing the structure dimension, the crankshaft series design is achieved and the design and analysis can be improved. Therefore, it is helpful to improve the design quality and efficiency of crankshaft and shorten the design cycle.

Accurate prediction of the burst pressure is indispensible for the engineering design and integrity assessment of the oil and gas pipelines. A plenty of analytical and empirical equations have been proposed to predict the burst pressures of the pipelines; however, it is difficult to accurately predict the burst pressures and evaluate the accuracy of these equations. In this paper, a failure window method was presented to predict the burst pressure of the pipes. First, the security of the steel pipelines under the internal pressure can be assessed. And then the accuracy of the previous analytical and empirical equations can also be generally evaluated. Finally, the effect of the wall thinning of the pipes on the failure window was systemically investigated. The results indicate that it is extremely formidable to establish an equation to predict the burst pressure with a high accuracy and a broad application, while it is feasible to create a failure window to determine the range of the dangerous internal pressure. Calculations reveal that some predictions of the burst pressure equations like Faupel, Soderberg, Maximum stress, and Nadai (1) are overestimated to some extent; some like ASME, maximum shear stress, Turner, Klever and Zhu–Leis and Baily–Nadai (2) basically reliable; the rest like API and Nadai (3) slightly conservative. With the wall thinning of the steel pipelines, the failure window is gradually lowered and narrowed.

Abstract Reservoir uncertainties, high water cut, completion integrity along with declining production are the major challenges of a mature field. These integrated with dying facilities and poor field production are key issues that each oil and gas company is facing these days. Arresting production decline is an inevitable objective, but with the existing techniques/steps involved, it becomes a cumbersome and exorbitant affair for the operators to meet their requirements. In addition, incompetent and flawed well data makes it more challenging to analyze mature fields. Although flow rate data is the most easily accessible data for mature fields, the absence of pressure data (flowing bottom-hole or wellhead pressure) remains a big obstacle for the application of conventional production enhancement and well screening strategies for most of the mature fields. A real-time optimization tool is thus constructed by developing a hybrid modelling technique that encapsulates Kriging and Fuzzy Logic to account for the imprecisions and uncertainties involved while identification of subsurface locations for production optimization of a mature field using only production data. The data from the existing wells in the field is used to generate a membership function based on its historical performance and productivity, thereby generating a spatial map of prospective areas, where secondary development operations can be taken up for production optimization.

Spring-damper units were set on the boundaries to absorb incident waves and reflected scattering waves to realize viscoelastic artificial boundary (VAB). The equivalent node load input method was used to simulate the VAB and viscoelastic boundary element wave input. Programming is based on APDL secondary development language with ANSYS finite element software. Considering the interaction between chamber structure and the surrounding soil, docking chamber structure dynamic model is established based on the VAB. The linear elastic model was used for concrete structure. The D-P nonlinear model was used for the back soil calculation. Docking chamber structure dynamic analysis under conditions of fixed boundaries and viscoelastic boundaries were conducted. The result indicated that under the viscoelastic boundary conditions, dynamic acceleration response is significant on the top of the lock wall, which is approximately 2.5 times of the value on the bottom of the lock wall. The maximum response stress appears near the cross point of the lock wall and the bottom floor with value of approximately 5620 kPa;.The chamber bottom floor is subjected to tension and maximum stress with the value of approximately 6180 kPa. Usually, the structure response under the fixed boundary conditions is higher than the structure response under the viscoelastic boundary conditions.
