PUMP

TM - FTTM
Pump (pendahuluan)
Pumps have a prime of uses in the oilfield.

Large pumps provide the pressure driving
force needed to move oil through piping
from point to point during its gathering,
processing, and pipeline transport.



Pump
Crude oil is stabilized by stage separation
to or near atmospheric pressure for
transportation and storage, before
pumping.

Main-line oil (MLO) pumps are required
for pipeline transport or transfer pumps for
delivery into other carrier or storage.


Background
Large pumps are also needed for injection
water and produced brine transport and
disposal.
Background
In the life of the field. Produced water must
also be transported in the production
facilities and possibly re-injected.
Basically, Pumps convert the rotary motion
of a prime mover into the linear motion of
the liquid in the piping.
As a secondary function, pumps
occasionally serve to mix fluids.

Background
There are two basic classes of pumps: positive
displacement and centrifugal.

Positive displacement pumps trap a portion of the liquid
in a fixed volume and deliver it mechanically to a higher
pressure. The entrapment may be done by a reciprocating
piston or plunger in a cylinder, or by a rotating sliding
vane, or gear, or screw.

Background

Centrifugal pumps propel liquid in a
smooth, uninterrupted stream.
Centrifugal pumps accelerate the liquid by
impellers and convert the induced kinetic
energy of the liquid into pressure energy by
an increase in cross-section.

Units
In English engineering units, th. capacity
of a pump is expressed in gpm (U. S.
gallons per minute) at flow conditions.
Work per unit mass is expressed in ft-
lbf/lbm or ft or 'head.
In SI unit, flows are expressed in cubic
meters per second (m
3
/s), work per unit
mass in kJ/kg, and work per unit time in
W.
Centrifugal Pumps
The most common type of pump used in field handling of
crude oil.

Centrifugal pumps operate reliably, require low
maintenance, and are well-suited for automatic control.

They produce smooth output flow and operate safely
against partially closed control Valves safely against a
closed valve for short time periods.

Centrifugal pumps operate flexibly over a wide range of
flow rates (from a few gpm to 100,000 bpd) at heads
ranging from a few psi to 3,000 psi.

Parallel Pumps

Centrifugal pumps may be operated in parallel at the
same head to provide greater capacity than a single
pump.

Parallel flows are additive at the same head. Extreme
care must be exercised that parallel pumps have
identical, or nearly identical, performance curves.

Net Positive Suction Head Required
(NPSHR)

An important consideration in pump selection is
the so called net positive suction head required
(NPSHR), which is the head that must be supplied
at the pump inlet in order to avoid or minimize
cavitation.

If the pressure in the eye of the impeller falls below the
vapor pressure of the fluid, some vaporization occurs. At a
subsequent point in the pump, the pressure rises and
these bubbles collapse, creating sound pressure waves
(cavitation) that erode the pump impeller. Mechanical
damage may also be possible.

Advantages of Centifugal Pump
A centrifugal pump can be multistages
Discharge pressure may be increased by
increasing pump speed.
Increasing pump speed may increase
pump rate, if the pressure is held constant.
If the rate is held constant, a speed
increase will cause the pressure to
increase.
