28、o provide the user with recommended field methods of sampling, sample handling and analysis for high water content streams up to 50 % water on a volumetric basis. In particular, this RP was developed giving consideration to offshore installations (both floating and fixed platforms). These installati

29、ons are generally subject to motion and vibrations, have minimal laboratory equipment, and perform S&W analysis with multi- skilled operations personnel as opposed to laboratory chemists. The techniques described, however, are also applicable to onshore locations. This document provides design and o

30、perating guidelines for sampling, sample handling and sample analysis of high water content streams, up to 50 % water by volume. As a guide, this RP targets a relative accuracy of 5 % of reading up to a maximum of 50 % water content as a qualifier for the various methods described herein. For exampl

31、e, the corresponding absolute accuracy for a 10 % water content stream is 0.5 % and for 20 % water content is 1.0 %. This recommended practice may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This RP does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the

32、 responsibility of the user of this RP to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. The laboratory testing contained within this RP (see Annex A) is based on a single laboratorysingle operator set of results. As with oth

33、er API standards for field S&W determination methods, no precision and bias calculation was performed and therefore, no inter-laboratory or round robin style testing was performed. The results of the testing of the various methods are primarily intended to provide a general comparison between differ

34、ent methods to facilitate operational choices. 2 References 2.1 Normative API MPMS Chapter 8.2 (ASTM D 4177), “Automatic Sampling of Petroleum and Petroleum Products” API MPMS Chapter 10.2 (ASTM D 4006), “Determination of Water in Crude Oil by Distillation” API MPMS Chapter 10.3 (ASTM D 4007), “Stan

Following are the terms

39、that are specific to this RP: 3.1 aliquot A small portion of a larger sample which is analyzed in a laboratory and assumed to represent to whole sample. 3.2 bubble point (in non-stabilized hydrocarbon liquids) The lowest pressure at which the liquid remains fully in the liquid state (see also gas br

40、eak-out). 3.3 gas break-out (in non-stabilized hydrocarbon liquids) The act of dissolved gas coming out of liquid solution and residing as free gas within the predominately liquid flow (see also bubble point). 3.4 jet mixer A system of pump(s) and nozzle(s) where a small portion of a stream is extra

41、cted and pumped and then re-injected through a nozzle back into the stream in order to provide turbulence within the stream and mix free water and oil such that a representative sample may be extracted at a point downstream. 3.5 lab mixing system A system similar to an automatic sampler circulating

42、mixing system but located in a laboratory where it is used to re- mix a large sample for aliquot delivery. 3.6 slip stream (in single phase liquid flows) A stream or bypass line of approximately the same velocity as the main stream utilized for extracting representative proportional-to-flow samples

43、(sometimes referred to as fast loop). 3.7 static mixer A series of internal obstructions designed to use the flowing velocity force of the stream to mix and evenly distribute water throughout the pipe cross-section. 4 Symbols and Abbreviated Terms 4.1 Symbols and Nomenclature plus or minus “rho” sta

44、nds for density4 API RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 87 5.1 Automatic Sampler and Stream Mixing Recommendations Since no specific testing has been conducted for this recommended practice, a conservative installation design approach should be taken. Furthermore, lighter crude oil or condensate presents the grea

45、test difficulty in acquiring representative samples. This is due to phase separation which depends on the density difference between water and crude oil and a relatively lower emulsion viscosity. Higher viscosity emulsions tend to suspend water better than lower viscosity emulsions. Therefore, light

46、 crude oil applications should be considered to be more difficult than heavier, more viscous crude oils. Following are the recommendations for stream mixing and automatic sampling systems: 1) The design of the automatic sampling system, inclusive of the probe, extraction tubing, receiver, and sample

47、r circulating/mixing system should be in accordance with API MPMS Chapter 8.2. Additionally, in-line mixer systems should be employed on all high water content situations regardless of the stream velocity. API MPMS Chapter 8.2 provides that in-line mixers are not needed if the velocities are suffici

48、ently high. However, this only applies to low water content situations. 2) The recommended installation includes a properly designed static mixer or a jet mixer. The orientation should be in a vertical down flow pipe. The sample probe (for automatic or spot samples) should be within two to three pip

49、e diameters from the exit of the mixer. 3) If vertical down flow is not a viable option, a vertical up flow orientation is also adequate provided a mixer is installed upstream and that the stream velocity is sufficient so that water droplets will not back flow. 4) If a vertical orientation is not possible the sample probe may be installed in horizontal pipe, provided a mixing device is installed upstream. The sample probe should be located immediately downstream of the mixer since higher water content streams tend to separate into a layered oil/water flow very quickly. 5) All i
