Abstract

In this research, an experimental investigation was carried out in the existence of gasoline on the Carbon Dioxide hydrate. This was done to replicate or Understanding the development of gas hydrates in multi-phase transmission pipelines. The experiments are conducted in a Rocking cell Gas hydrate reactor, and thermodynamic equilibrium conditions are determined. The tests were performed with Deionized water, Carbon dioxide gas as a pure system and Gasoline, Deionized Water, and Carbon dioxide Gas as a multiphase system. The performance of the multiphase system displayed an inhibition effect when compared to that of a straightforward method. Then, a prediction model is proposed to determine the gas hydrate formation temperature (HFT) and gas hydrate formation pressure (HFP) for a multiphase transmission pipeline. This prediction model is validated based on the experimental data obtained. It was found that the proposed prediction model was in significant compliance with that of the experimental data when CO2 and deionized water system was used. Similarly, the model that was proposed for the multiphase system was found to be decent as it is within the limit of acceptable error margins. The reason for the inefficiency of the multiphase system was also clearly discussed.
