At present,most oil fields in China have entered the high water cut period,and the flow characteristics of produced fluid have changed, so it is possible to reduce the temperature of gathering and transportation.However,there are relatively few studies on the influence of pipeline materials on low-temperature gathering and transmission characteristics. Therefore, the characteristics of low-temperature gathering and transportation of high water content crude oil in steel pipe and fiberglass pipe are studied.The results show that the wellhead back pressure rises and the oil temperature at the end of pipeline drops slowly after the water content of the pipeline is reduced. The wellhead back pressure rises differently under different water content.When the water content is the same, the temperature of fiberglass pipe is lower than that of steel pipe, and the minimum water content of fiberglass pipe for low-temperature gathering and transportation is lower than that of steel pipe under the same condition.Based on the experimental data of viscosity wall temperature,the calculation models of different pipe materials are obtained,and the calculation results are accurate, which has a guiding significance for the feasibility judgment and safe operation management of the oil field in the high water cut period.
