Flow Assurance

Pöyry's  expert team offers a broad range of flow assurance expertise from small scale oil developments to large gas / condensate developments in all the major oil and gas provinces around the world.

Assessment begins initially using steady state flow simulation programs to:

  • evaluates design and operating conditions
  • defines insulation requirements
  • develops hydrate / wax / slug management strategies
  • optimise gas lift or ESP usage and well performance
Transient analyses are performed as the design progresses and the pipeline systems and networks become better defined. These can include.
  • Single pipelines
  • Complex oil and gas gathering networks
  • Slugcatcher Design
  • Operating cases for start-up, ramp-up, shutdown, cool down, re-starts and blowdown.

The team will analyse the results and develop design cases and operating procedures as required.

The team have experience in using many of the leading tools including, OLGA 2000, Pipesim, TGnet, Masterflow and with interfacing these with other tools such as Hysys Dynamic, Gap/Prosper, and Reo to create overall system models.
