深水高压模拟试验舱的研制与应用

Development and Application of Deep Water High Pressure Simulation Test Compartment

为了模拟钻采装备的深水高压工作环境,并对水下装备的承压性能、密封性能、动作(功能)性能、安全性和可靠性等进行系统性试验与研究,研制了深水高压模拟试验舱。该试验舱采用集成法兰,将水压、液压、电源、信息、监控和测试等集于一体,便于统一管理,集成控制,同时减少高压舱的开口数量,提高可靠性和操作性;可对水下装备同时进行内、外水压试验和功能(动作)试验,可同时进行监控、测试和数据采集等。通过不同产品的深水高压模拟试验,证明了高压舱可模拟0~3 500 m水深的压力环境,能够满足深水环境下石油钻采装备的试验与检测。研制的深水高压模拟试验舱是一种安全可靠的多功能、综合性试验平台,可为水下装备的试验研究提供支持与评价。

To simulate the deep water and high pressure working environment ol drilling and production e-quipment, and to systematically test and study the pressure bearing performance, sealing performance, action per-formance ,safety and reliability of underwater equipment, a deep water high pressure simulation test compartmenthas been developed. The test cabin, with integrated flange, integrates the water pressure, hydraulic, power, infor-mation ,monitoring and testing, facilitating unified management, integrated control, while reducing the number ofhigh-pressure cabin openings and improving reliability and operability. The compartment allows internal and exter-nal hydraulic pressure test and function （action） test of underwater equipment at the same time, and also allowsmonitoring, testing and data acquisition at the same time. The deep water high pressure simulation tests of differentproducts have proved that the high pressure compartment could simulate the pressure environment of 0 -3 500 mwater depth, and could satisfy the test and detection of oil drilling equipment in deep water environment. The de-veloped deep-water high-pressure simulation test compartment is a safe and reliable multi-functional and compre-hensive test platform, which could provide support and evaluation for underwater equipment test and development.
