Introduction
Standard Revision Background and Technology Evolution
Compared with the 2012 version, this revised version SY/T 6638-2024 mainly reflects three major technical orientations: renewable energy integration (newly added geothermal energy utilization clause), energy efficiency level improvement (motor energy efficiency requirements are raised to Level 2 of GB30254-2013), system optimization (12 obsolete clauses are deleted and 8 advanced technology regulations are added). The standard introduces innovative requirements such as prefabricated buildings (8.4.6) and mixed transmission technology (6.3.8) for the first time.
Comparison of core energy-saving technology frameworks
| Technical dimensions | 2012 version requirements | 2024 version upgrade |
|---|---|---|
| Compressor selection | Only basic type selection is specified | Increase energy efficiency range operation requirements (Article 7.1.2) |
| Waste heat recovery | No clear requirements | Mandatory utilization of gas turbine waste heat (Article 7.2.4) |
| Pressure energy utilization | Peak regulation capacity requirements | Quantitative pipeline pressure gas injection conditions (Article 6.4.2) |
Key points for energy efficiency control of key equipment
Centrifugal compressor selection case
A design case of a West-East Gas Transmission Booster Station shows that after selecting the multiple-unit parallel scheme in Article 7.1.1, the annual electricity saving can reach 2.3×106kWh compared with the single-machine operation scheme. The new version of the standard particularly emphasizes:
- Station pressure ratio is controlled at ≤0.25MPa (Article 5.5)
- Aftercooler is preferably air-cooled
- Outlet temperature ≤60℃ (Article 6.4.8)
Analysis of new energy consumption calculation method
Appendix A introduces dynamic calculation formula:
$E=\sum_{i=1}^{n}(E_{i}\cdot k_{i})$
Among them, the standard coal conversion coefficient is in accordance with the requirements of Appendix B, the natural gas value is 1.1-1.33kgce/m³ (Table B.1), and the electricity equivalent value is 0.1229kgce/(kW·h) (Table B.2). Special attention should be paid to:
- The gas injection and production periods need to be calculated separately (Article 6.1.5)
- Energy-consuming working fluids are included in the statistical scope
- The latest discount coefficient is adopted
Implementation suggestions
Design stage
1. Give priority to the gas-liquid mixed transmission process (Article 6.3.8) to reduce the energy consumption of the well site
2. The configuration rate of variable frequency air coolers should be ≥80% (Article 6.3.5)
3. The load rate of the heating furnace is controlled at 50-120% (Article 8.3.4)
Operation stage
1. Establish an energy consumption monitoring system (Article 4.3 measurement requirements)
2. Carry out simulation optimization regularly (Article 5.4)
3. Efficiency evaluation of the waste heat recovery system
