Abstract
Polymers, coke, oil dirt, limescale, sediments and rust corrosives, which are adhered to pipe wall, will be generated during the oil pipeline transport, thus leading to degradation of production efficiency, increasing the energy consumption and seriously impacting oil transport quality, efficiency and safety. What’s worse, this will result in blockage and thus interrupt the flow and suspend the production. Based on modern artificial intelligence (AI) and new-type environmental protection technologies, a self-propelled robot of intelligent manipulation is proposed and enters oil pipeline to conduct environmentally friendly cleaning using high-pressure water jet, and the cleaning wastewater can be recycled. This environmentally friendly intelligent pipeline robot is applicable to detection and high-pressure water jet cleaning of circular variable-sectional-diameter pipelines in closed environment. Furthermore, it is capable of online pipe wall quality detection for horizontal, vertical and turning circular pipelines, and also cleaning effect evaluation. According to the operating principle, an environmentally friendly oil pipeline cleaning technology based on intelligent robot is proposed by combining the technical characteristics in the existing oil pipeline design and construction, in an effort to provide a reference for intelligent cleaning and automatic visual inspection and evaluation of oil pipelines.
