Course Description

This course is designed to provide an understanding of flow phenomena and pipeline optimization that can help participants avoid problems such as hydrates, corrosion or startup/shutdown issues. This ten days course will also address several critical problems in obtaining pipeline flow assurance.

Course Objectives

  • Gaining a systematic understanding of the concept of flow assurance.
  • Applying the fundamental principles of multiphase flow and production chemistry to analyse typical flow assurance systems.
  • Designing for basic flow assurance and operability.

Who Should Attend?

  • Engineers
  • Managers
  • Consultants and Contractors
  • Service Providers
  • Those who wish to understand the technical issues in the Flow Assurance for Pipeline Systems
