Study on Safe Evacuation of Oilfield Operators Based on Social Force Model
In order to improve the emergency evacuation capabilities in response to sudden incidents such as overflow blow-outs during the oil field development,a simulation environment for the wellfield operation site of the oilfield was constructed based on the social force model.The evacuation process was then calculated and analyzed.First,the fracturing team,well testing team,and other personnel were arranged according to their work areas,simulating the evacuation process from the work site to the emergency exit.Next,congestion points in the evacuation process were analyzed to optimize the wellfield layout.Finally,the optimized evacuation process was calculated to evaluate the improvement.The results show that this method can calculate the actual evacuation speed of the personnel and effectively assess the emergency evacuation efficiency;and that after the wellfield layout is optimized,the evacuation time decreases by 7 seconds,reducing the total evacuation time by 17.1%and significantly improving the evacuation efficiency of the personnel.
