    Abstract: In order to effectively predict combustible gas leakage in oil and gas station, a scientific, reasonable and economical gas sensor layout scheme was developed. Based on the fusion of the leakage source parameter set and the wind field parameter set, the number of scenarios corresponding to the cumulative leakage probability of 90% was defined as typical scenarios to replace all leakage scenarios. Combined with numerical simulation, the diffusion range and harm area of combustible gas in the station were determined, and the sensor layout schemes of different equipment and stations were optimized through regional block division. The results show that 1320 leakage scenes corresponding to 44 main equipment in the original station and yard can be reduced to 542 by screening, and the number of scenes is reduced by 58.9%, which greatly reduces the difficulty of subsequent calculation. The station requires 45 sensors to ensure coverage of high-risk leakage areas while reducing sensor redundancy. The research results can provide practical reference for the emergency warning of oil and gas station leakage accidents.

    Video surveillance on offshore platforms plays a significant role in safety monitoring and accident investigation during drilling and completion operations. Currently, the video surveillance systems on offshore platforms primarily rely on manual observation for safety monitoring and analysis, which leads to issues such as inadequate continuous monitoring, insufficient early warning capabilities, and high labor costs. To address these problems, this study proposes a machine vision-based framework for automatic identification of safety risks in offshore drilling and completion operations. The study utilizes rotation detection techniques to ensure accurate results even in tilted equipment conditions. Additionally, by incorporating object tracking technology, the system enables tracking and distance measurement of personnel and equipment, thus effectively monitoring the operational status of offshore platforms in complex environments. The proposed system was deployed and tested on a specific offshore platform, achieving an accuracy rate of over 90% for all algorithms employed. This significantly enhances the safety and efficiency of drilling and completion operations, reduces potential hazards and safety incidents, and makes a valuable contribution to improving the safety, efficiency, and management level of offshore drilling and completion operations.

    Synthetic ammonia and urea are important fertilizers and industrial raw materials with extensive applications in modern agriculture and chemical industry. In traditional ammonia urea production projects, DCS systems based on copper core cables are generally used as signal transmission media. However, the use of copper core cables makes signal interaction between the control system and the device area susceptible to interference from external electrical signals, and the cost of copper core cables is high. This traditional approach will significantly increase the project cost and spare parts cost for users, affecting the rapid delivery of the project. This article combines industrial optical bus technology with synthetic ammonia urea production projects, which can not only solve the problem of interference in copper core cable signal transmission, but also significantly reduce the installation cost of control systems, save time, and improve the reliability and stability of system operation in synthetic ammonia urea production projects.

    Abstract: In order to reduce the possibility of tree failure during service and ensure the normal and safe production of oil field. On the basis of building the failure tree model of the tree, the transformation of the failure tree model to the Bayesian network model is realized through the transformation relationship. Based on the analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy set theory, the prior probability of the root node is solved. By defining the time variation characteristics of the relevant nodes, the change of the failure probability of the tree at different times is obtained. The results show that the probability of tree failure is 1.24×10-2, in which the valve leakage is the highest, followed by flange leakage. The calculated results are consistent with the actual situation. Medium corrosion, fluid containing impurities, erosion corrosion, nut loosening and disc deformation are the main factors leading to tree failure, which should be paid attention to in field management. With the extension of time, the failure probability of tree increases slowly at first and then rapidly, and the risk of one-year tree increases sharply.

    A CO2 emission calculation system with full process material flow and thermal flow has been developed based on domestic chemical process simulation software. Firstly, the mathematical models of CO2 emission of full process material flow and thermal flow and the solution steps were established, then the CO2 emission calculation system was developed by using object-oriented C++ language and COM middleware technology, and finally the accuracy of module calculation was checked by using the actual data of two units of styrene ethylbenzene separation and cracked gasoline hydrogenation. The results showed that the average relative deviations (ARD) of the CO2 emission calculation results were 0.38% and 0.06%, respectively, and the simulation results match well with the actual industrial values, which indicated that the established CO2 emission calculation system was stable and reliable, and will play an important guiding role in the simulation calculation of CO2 emission processes in chemical processes.
