Experimental Analysis and Investigation effect of DRA (Drag Reducing Agent) in liquid Hydrocarbon Pipelines

Oil and gas industry is one of the most capital-intensive in world. Each step oil processing starting from exploration, exploitation, up to abandonment field, consumes large amount capital. Optimization each process essential reduce expenditure. In this paper, optimization fluid flow pipeline during transportation will be observed studied order increase performance. This paper concentrates on chemical application into therefore can overallpipeline throughput or decrease energy requirement for transportation. These chemicals are called drag reducing agent, which consist various such as surfactants, polymers, nanofluids, fibers, etc. During system, these already proven pump workfor constant rate allow transport more same work. The first reducer scale was Trans Alaskan Pipeline System cancel need build several stations because successful application. Since then, company worldwide started apply their system. method experimented For given system optimum DRA section. Different type geometry require different reducer. Keywords: pipeline, reduction agent (DRA).
