...Assessment and sensitivity analysis of multiphase flow pipeline models against experimental and field data P Dhoorjaty, D Erickson, R Kowta, M Mai, P Parthasarathy Wood Group, USA ABSTRACT Transient multiphase pipeline simulators are seeing increasing application for live computation of oil and gas...

... were operated for extended time periods below their minimum turndown rate. These transient events offered a valuable opportunity to assess the performance of dynamic multiphase flow simulators for operating conditions where field data are rarely available. 2 INTRODUCTION Large diameter gas-condensate...

... ABSTRACT FlowManagerœ Dynamic is a transient multiphase flow simulator for online surveillance, optimization and prediction of subsea oil and gas production. The simulator covers all operational scenarios (e.g. production, shut-in, restart) for a complete subsea field layout (reservoir, wells...

... ABSTRACT This paper summarizes some of the experiences with the use of on-line simulators for surveillance and operational support. Model scopes for such systems have increased over the years. At the same time the required simulation speed has increased. In order to meet the new demands a new...

...]. In order to develop an efficient tool for integrated pipeline and reservoir simulations it was determined that a closely linked model was needed to give the required speed and stability. The main emphasis is on the near well bore region and functionality that is important for interaction between...

... system, both in normal and degraded operating conditions: The simulation study required an integrated series of dynamic simulation of the flowlines, the risers and the subsea facility. This paper describes the details of the dynamic flow modelling work and the methods required to improve the execution...

... ABSTRACT OLGA and TACITE are two of the few multiphase flow simulators based on mechanistic approach. The performances of OLGA against complex transient cases registered on pipelines operated by TOTAL in Indonesia are presented in this paper as well as OLGA performances against more classic...

... ABSTRACT LEDA is a new transient multiphase flow simulator with improved models and numerics, with both 1D and multidimensional capability. The approach in LEDA is to improve the accuracy and scale-up capability of the model by including more fundamental physics, rather than relying on more...
