    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]With the ever increasing need to optimize production, the accurate understanding of the mechanics of multi-phase flow and its effect on the pressure drop along the oil-well flow string is becoming more pertinent. The efficient design of gas-lift pump, electric submersible pumps, separators, flow strings and other production equipment depends on the accurate prediction of the pressure drop along the flow pipe. Pressure is the energy of the reservoir/well and it is crucial to understand how a change in fluid properties, flow conditions and pipe geometric properties affect this important paramete ...

      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]This leads to some level of complexity as regards to the identification of the physical properties of the individual phases, the flow pattern, the relative volume occupied by the separate phases inside the pipe, and most importantly the implication of the phase separation on the pressure drop along the well tubing string.Although most if not all calculations for flow lines in multiphase production systems have been and continue to be based on empirical correlations, there is now a strong tendency to introduce more physically based (so called mechanistic) approaches to supplemen ...
