Faster simulation runtime has also been achieved for all modeling though the implementation of a new parallel network solver to spread the computational load across all processors. The interactive graphical wellbore enables rapid well model building and analysis. Networks can be built on the GIS canvas or generated automatically using a GIS shape file. The ESRI-supported GIS map canvas helps deliver true spatial representation of wells, equipment, and networks. The simulator includes advanced three-phase mechanistic models, enhancements to heat transfer modeling, and comprehensive PVT modeling options. Continuous innovation incorporating leading scienceįor over 30 years, the PIPESIM simulator has been continuously improved by incorporating not only the latest science in the three core areas of flow modeling-multiphase flow, heat transfer, and fluid behavior-but also the latest innovations in computing, and oil and gas industry technologies. From complex individual wells to vast production networks, the PIPESIM steady-state multiphase flow simulator enables production optimization over the complete lifecycle.
Once these systems are brought into production, the ability to ensure optimal flow is critical to maximizing economic potential. Modern production systems require designs that ensure safe and cost-effective transportation of fluids from the reservoir to the processing facilities.
