This paper presents a project that provides both, to professors and to students, a tool that is useful for studying, teaching and learning how pipelines work and how they can be scheduled in an easy and widespread way. The project is called PipeSim, and features static and dynamic pipelines with a very attractive, dynamic and intuitive interface. It is well known that pipeline and pipeline-sche...

a high pressure drop happens when heavy oil with high viscosity moves through the oil pipeline. a variety of methods to avoid this pressure drop is available. one of which is injection of chemicals to reduce the viscosity and ultimately reduce pressure drop. using the pipesim software, the effect of dispersion of nano and micro-particles into the oil has been simulated to study the amount of th...

Steady state multiphase flow models are used for the design and operation of pipelines that are used in the oil and gas industry. The predictions obtained with these models contain uncertainties, which arise from model assumptions and simplifications, and from uncertainties in the input parameters. In this thesis we investigate the effect of uncertainties in the input parameters (such as the wa...

The present paper aims to design a continuous gas-lift system in order activate the dead well X and optimise recovery of hydrocarbons by gas injection. data taken into account are those reservoir well. All simulation operations diagram carried out with PIPESIM 2017 2.0 software. Moreover, nodal analysis is finding injection pressure number valves be installed, optimal heights flow rates receive...

The formation of natural gas hydrates seriously affects the production efficiency wells. Obtaining correct temperature and pressure profile along wellbore wells is a prerequisite for accurately predicting location hydrate using downhole throttling technology. According to numerical iterative transfer law microelement state parameters, multi-field multi-phase coupling method proposed. Based on a...

Electrical submersible pump (ESP) operation is compromised by free gas, resulting in premature failure and production losses new wells. It essential to detect the onset of abnormal operations. We develop a model that predicts ESP when gas level increases pump. The compares parameters with normal operating ranges; it shuts down necessary. used Schlumberger PIPESIM software (version 2017.01) perf...

The phase state prediction methods of condensate gas are relatively mature, but the effect changes on gas–liquid mixture flow behavior and liquid-carrying capacity has not been researched in detail. This study applied PIPESIM software to predict fluid properties under different development stages a reservoir Shengli Oilfield determined diagram physical well stream basis optimized equation (EOS)...

This study evaluated the effect of Mono-Ethylene Glycol (MEG) on hydrate formation conditions in subsea pipelines for a typical gas deepwater field Nigeria, using flow assurance simulator 'PIPESIM'. At turndown, normal and maximum conditions, production rates were 1640, 2460, 3280 sm3/day, respectively. The wellhead temperature varies between 50-55oC, inlet pressure at is 25 bara. outlet topsid...
