Study of the influence of foaming surfactants on the operation of a multistage centrifugal pump when pumping water-gas mixtures created by an ejector; [ИССЛЕДОВАНИЕ ВЛИЯНИЯ ПЕНООБРАЗУЮЩИХ ПОВЕРХНОСТНО-АКТИВНЫХ ВЕЩЕСТВ НА РАБОТУ МНОГОСТУПЕНЧАТОГО ЦЕНТРОБЕЖНОГО НАСОСА ПРИ ОТКАЧКЕ СОЗДАННЫХ ЭЖЕКТОРОМ ВОДОГАЗОВЫХ СМЕСЕЙ]

When implementing the SWAG technology, the degree of stability of the water-gas mixture plays a key role. A many factors of various nature is known to the suppression of the coalescence of gas bubbles is facilitated. This article presents the results of studies of the effect of surfactants of various compositions and concentrations on the operation of a multistage centrifugal pump when pumping water-gas mixtures. The foaming agent disolvan 4411 is determined to the degree of negative influence of free gas on the characteristics of the pump is significantly reduced. The reagent Neftenol VVD provides operating parameters very close to the characteristics of the pump when using disolvan 4411. The concentration of Neftenol VVD, recommended for addition to the water-gas mixture, has been determined. The expediency of choosing this surfactant is also due to the fact that the use of this reagent improves the injection capacity of wells. © 2022 «OilGasScientificResearchProject» Institute.
