Présentation de l'éditeur
Fluids produced from hydrocarbon fields are composed of a mixture of oil,
gas and water, often with corrosive components, sometimes laden with solid
particles, and are a potential source of many flow instabilities. Frequently, they
are now directly exported long distances, in multiphase conditions, towards an
existing processing facility or a new processing centre created to serve simultaneously
several new fields. This production scheme, which is especially applied
offshore, in mature basins such as in the North Sea or in the Gulf of Mexico
where infrastructure exists over large areas, can also improve the economics
of small or deepwater fields.This book presents the fundamentals of multiphase production with regard to
flow simulations in multiphase pipelines, multiphase pumping and multiphase
metering. It gives first a description of the multiphase flow patterns that may
appear in a pipe and explains how they are managed by the models. It also
offers a good introduction t
