Analysis and Design of the First High Pressure Pig Receiver for CNOOC Lingshui Gas Field
In the construction and maintenance of oil transport pipelines,pipe cleaning is very critical,and the pig receiver is essential equipment for the pigging operation of the pipeline.By using ANSYS 17.0 finite element analysis software,based on the design conditions and structural parameters of the pig receiver and the requirements ofJB 4732-1995"Steel Pressure Vessel Design by Analysis(Confirmed in 2005)",the stress analysis and strength evaluation of the main pressure components of the first high pressure pig receiver of CNOOC Lingshui Gas Field were carried out,and the results show that the analysis design could meet the requirements of stress intensity assessment and the implementation conditions of the project.
