The development of the Internet of Things technology has always brought about the development of an industry. In today’s society, the development of various industries is inseparable from technology, especially for the petroleum industry.
The Internet of Things connects any object to the network through information sensing equipment and in accordance with an agreed protocol. The objects exchange and communicate information through the information dissemination medium to achieve intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, supervision and other functions.
There are two key technologies in the application of the Internet of Things in the petroleum industry, namely sensor technology and embedded technology.
The petroleum industry is an industrial sector that extracts petroleum (including natural petroleum, oil shale, and natural gas) and refines and processes it. It is composed of oilfield geological exploration, oilfield development and oil exploration, transportation, refining and processing units. Petroleum is the “blood” of industry and an important industrial energy source.
To carry out the work of the petroleum industry, the preliminary work must be done:
1. Do a good job in geological exploration, increase industrial reserves, and determine a reasonable ratio of reserves and production;
2. Strengthen scientific and technological research in oil exploitation, research and select reasonable exploitation techniques and oil well distribution based on natural conditions and factors such as the size of reserves and the natural pressure of the oil layer to increase the exploitation rate of oil fields;
3. Strengthen the construction of supporting projects for oilfield exploitation, and choose reasonable transportation methods while developing oilfields;
4. Improve the production technology and management level of petroleum refining and processing to ensure the automation and continuity of the production process.
As a long industrial chain, the oil industry needs advanced management concepts, technical means and methods to effectively manage oil. Effective management of all links in the industrial chain, forming a closed-loop production process and equipment asset life cycle management, the technical characteristics of the Internet of Things rfid technology itself, is the best way to achieve the above-mentioned strategy and management objectives of the petroleum industry.
The Internet of Things technology in the petroleum industry is mainly used in petroleum and petrochemical industry logistics, product and asset tracking management, oil drilling monitoring, pumping wells and offshore oil platform monitoring, oilfield meter wireless meter reading, oil pipeline transportation monitoring and emergency management, etc.
Petroleum development and production field
1. Drilling equipment manufacturing, transportation and storage
Embed RFID tags in the entire process of drill pipe manufacturing to monitor the entire production process, including the storage, sales, circulation and use of qualified products, and post-rework processing of non-conforming products.
2. The trigger of the perforating gun in the oil well is triggered
RFID technology is used to trigger the trigger of perforating guns in oil wells in crude oil production, eliminating long and heavy gun gamma ray positioning tools. This technology saves oil companies a lot of money.
3. Offshore oil engineering
The offshore oil exploration and development environment and equipment application environment are very harsh. The management method adopts the traditional manual recording method, which is very inconvenient. The Internet of Things technology can be used in offshore oil exploration and production to monitor all equipment in real time to ensure continuous and stable production.
Oil gathering and transportation
Use the Internet of Things, Global Positioning System (GPS), Geographic Information System (GIS), and CMDA/GPRS communication technology to establish an information monitoring platform for drilling, oil pipelines, and tank trucks in the oil industry to provide field drilling, oil tank transportation, and oil pipelines in the oil industry. Online real-time monitoring, wireless collection of status parameters of each monitoring instrument, so as to achieve centralized, efficient and unified management of resources.
Refining and chemical industry
1. Monitoring of valves, pipelines and equipment in oil refining units
The refinery uses RFID tags to capture the relevant information of the pressure safety relief valves, pipelines and process equipment in the main containers to keep records of relevant key parameters and process information.
2. The refinery uses RFID as an evacuation system
An oil refinery of BP has activated a personnel evacuation system using radio frequency identification technology (RFID). This positioning safety system will be used to track the whereabouts of more than 2,000 employees, contractors and tourists in the area, and will be able to better improve the hazardous chemical management standards of the Occupational Health and Safety Administration in terms of safety management.
Oil storage and sales
1. Product distribution: shipping activities and tanker tracking
In order to reduce the cost of fleet (fleet) operations, oil and gas companies must be able to manage their trucks and shipping in real time, minimize the waiting time of higher-cost vehicles and drivers, and optimize asset performance. The use of RFID technology Fleet management solutions that can track oil product delivery and the activities of crude oil/gasoline tankers.
2. Real-time monitoring of oil depot
Oil storage conditions are very strict. Real-time monitoring of the environment around the oil depot is required. The wireless sensor network is fully utilized and the collected data is transmitted to the monitoring center. The center processes and analyzes the data and displays it, and at the same time sends the processing results to the mobile Monitor, it can receive various parameter information of the oil depot in real time.
The Internet of Things has become the commanding heights of future competition in the information technology field and the core driving force of industrial upgrading. It has been widely used in various fields, and its application in the petroleum industry plays an important role.
