摘要:
A carbon steel for use in high pressure hydrogen service is provided. This steel may have greater than 1.20% manganese and greater than 0.035% sulfur. This steel may have no more than 0.16% carbon, no more than 1.10% manganese, no more than 0.010% phosphorus, no more than 0.05% sulfur, no more than 0.02% silicon, no more than 0.15% copper, no more than 0.10% nickel, no more than 0.1% chromium, no more than 0.03% molybdnium, no more than 0.40% aluminum, no more than 0.02% vanadium, no more than 0.0005% boron, no more than 0.003% titanium, and no more than 0.02% niobium.
摘要:
A cavern pressure control method includes storing compressible and possibly incompressible fluids in an underground storage volume, removing a portion or introducing additional incompressible fluid into the underground storage volume, possibly removing a portion or introducing additional compressible fluid into the underground storage volume, thereby producing a net pressure increase rate (Pinc) within the underground storage volume, wherein Pinc is maintained at less than a predetermined maximum increase value (PImax).
摘要:
A method of pad gas management in an underground storage volume including storing a first compressible fluid, determining a transient minimum operating pressure (Ptrans), measuring the pressure (Pact), removing at least a portion of the first compressible fluid, concurrently, introducing an incompressible fluid, thereby producing a transient pressure condition controlled by the flow rate of the incompressible fluid, such that Ptrans
摘要:
An inventory management method is also provided. This method includes removing and replacing the gas product from a first salt cavern as supply and demand dictate, analyzing the impurities in the gas product that is removed, predicting the duration until a maximum acceptable impurity limit is present, removing all the working gas from the first salt cavern when the maximum acceptable impurity limit is reached, then replacing the working gas in the first salt cavern, while concurrently, removing and replacing the gas product from a second salt cavern as supply and demand dictate, analyzing the impurities in the gas product that is removed, predicting the duration until a maximum acceptable impurity limit is present, removing all the working gas from the second salt cavern when the maximum acceptable impurity limit is reached, then replacing the working gas in the second salt cavern, while concurrently repeating steps a)-g).
