Modelling & Prediction
The ability to accurately predict the conditions of solids deposition (gas hydrates, wax, salt) in flowlines and processing equipment is crucial to maintaining safe, economic operations.
While experimental flow assurance studies should form a vital component of any new field development plan, predictive tools such as correlations and thermodynamic models provide a means to quickly assess inhibitor requirements in response to short (e.g. addition of new fluids to a stream) and longer term (e.g. evolution in fluid composition over the life of a well) changes in operating conditions.
At Hydrafact we can call on over 25 years experience in the thermodynamic modelling of aqueous and hydrocarbon fluid systems. Utilising either our commercial software (HWHYD) or advanced in-house research models, as part of our technical services we offer model development and predictive studies on:
