Schlumberger’s Pipesim Steady State Multiphase Simulator Pipeline Network Tutorials

About PIPESIM-

The PIPESIM steady-state multiphase flow simulator offers workflows for both front-end system design and production operations. The PIPESIM simulator is frequently used to identify situations that require more detailed transient simulation using the OLGA multiphase flow simulator.

Modern production systems require designs that ensure safe and cost-effective transportation of fluids from the reservoir to the processing facilities. Once these systems are brought into production, the ability to ensure optimal flow is critical to maximizing economic potential. From complex individual wells to vast production networks, the PIPESIM steady-state multiphase flow simulator enables production optimization over the complete lifecycle.

For over 30 years, the PIPESIM simulator has been continuously improved by incorporating not only the latest science in the three core areas of flow modelling multiphase flow, heat transfer, and fluid behavior but also the latest innovations in computing, and oil and gas industry technologies. The simulator includes advanced three-phase mechanistic models, enhancements to heat transfer modelling, and comprehensive PVT modelling options. The ESRI-supported GIS map canvas helps deliver true spatial representation of wells, equipment, and networks. Networks can be built on the GIS canvas or generated automatically using a GIS shape file. The interactive graphical wellbore enables rapid well model building and analysis. Faster simulation runtime has also been achieved for all modelling though the implementation of a new parallel network solver to spread the computational load across all processors.
