Title:
METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR REDUCING FLARE GAS, AND METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR REDUCING DISPOSAL AMOUNT OF BIOGAS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/024837
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A flare gas reduction method for reducing the amount of associated gas that is disposed of through flaring among associated gas generated during crude oil production, the method comprising a step in which hydrocarbons contained in a gas phase obtained through the gas-liquid separation of fluid from oil and gas production wells are decomposed into hydrogen and carbon materials. Flare gas reduction equipment for reducing the amount of associated gas that is disposed of through flaring among associated gas generated during crude oil production, the equipment comprising: a first transfer pipe for transporting at least a portion of a first gas phase obtained through the gas-liquid separation of fluid from oil and gas production wells; and a decomposition device for decomposing hydrocarbons contained in at least a portion of the first gas phase supplied from the first transfer pipe into hydrogen and carbon materials.
