PIPESIM Advanced
Audiance
Completion engineers, production technologists, well service, personnel, production operators and drilling engineers.
Prerequisites
• PIPESIM fundamentals
• Production and reservoir engineering fundamentals
• Nodal Analysis
• Artificial lift concept
• Module 1 : Artificial Lift Design (1.5 Day)
In this module you will learn how to use PIPESIM for artificial lift design including electric submersible pumps (ESP) and Gas Lift.
• Module 2: Flow Assurance (2 Day)
Multiphase flow simulation is required for the design of long pipelines to assure that fluids are safely and economically transported from the bottom of the wells all the ways downstream processing facility
Four flow assurance issues are discussed in this module:
Hydrates
Heat transfer
Erosion
Liquid slugging
• Module 3: Looped gas gathering network. (1.5 Days)
Modeling a network allows the engineers to determine the effects of changes such as adding new wells, adding compression, looping flowlines, and changing the separator pressure.
In this module, you will learn how to build a gathering network and perform a network simulation to evaluate the deliverability of the complete production system.
