Surface Production Network Modelling

Complete Surface Production Network Modelling

  • Link reservoir tank and well performance models to the subsea and surface pipelines, risers, facilities and processing plant using an industry accepted software package: GAP (Petroleum Experts)
  • Model the pressure loss in the subsea and surface facilities for oil, gas and condensate fields in addition to water or gas injection systems and artificial lift.
  • Increasing total system production by optimally choosing well choke settings, the allocation of artificial lift, water or gas injection while honouring pressure and production constraints at the process, wells and reservoirs.
  • When linked to reservoir models, the network model can be used to predict full-field production forecasts, testing a large range of production scenarios by varying reservoir, well and processing constraints.
  • Excellent for evaluating the feasibility of field development options by testing artificial lift requirements, pipeline sizing, well number and processing requirements.
  • Can track all fluid compositions from the reservoir to the processing plant to optimise well stream products.
