Abstract

The formation of hydrates in oil and gas transmission pipelines can cause blockage inside them and disrupt the normal flow. It may cause safety problems along with economic loss. To avoid these problems, it is necessary to have knowledge about gas hydrate formation. In this regard, hydrate liquid vapor equilibrium (HLVE) modeling can prove to be of significance as it predicts the phenomenon accurately. Dickens and Quinby-Hunt model is used to predict HLVE points. The experimental data has been obtained from open literature concerning inhibition of gas hydrates. The electrolytic binary solution mixtures of ionic liquids and quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) with commercial hydrate inhibitors have been taken into consideration. Methanol and mono ethylene glycol (MEG) are commercially used inhibitors. The gases forming hydrates include CO2, CH4 and mixed gas (CO2/CH4/N2). The experimental results are compared with the results obtained through modelin� The results show the applicability of the model as in case of QAS+MEG solution mixture hydrates with CO2, it shows a good fit. The HLVE findings of EMIM-Cl+MEG mixture for CH4 hydrates showed good results. The binary solution mixtures of NaCl+MEG, NaCl+MeOH and CaCl2+MeOH with tertiary gas mixture rich in CO2 were also modeled. It is found that the selected model is suitable to be used in hydrate forming pressure conditions. It shows the suitability of the model and it can be further used in case of ionic compounds to predict hydrate inhibition behavior. © 2021. All rights reserved.
