🎥 Flow Assurance Videos

These were created some years ago with an older version of FlowlinePro:

1. Erosion Mechanisms in Pipelines
   Erosion in pipes and bends
   Illustrates how flow velocity and particle content contribute to material wear, including examples of erosion in elbows and bends.

2. Flow Regimes in Multiphase Flow
   Two Phase Flow Regimes
   Offers a visual breakdown of gas-liquid interactions under varying conditions, using realistic data from the Ormen Lange field.

3. Steady-State Flow in Subsea Systems
   Note: Original Zeepipe simulation video is unavailable. Consider this alternative:
   How to build, run and evaluate a network hydraulics model
   Demonstrates steady-state multiphase flow modeling using PIPESIM, applicable to subsea pipelines.

4. Transient Flow Dynamics in Zeepipe Pipeline
   Transient flow in long subsea gas pipelines
   Shows how pressure and flow evolve over time, with transient simulation results and axial plots.

5. Three-Phase Flow in Ormen Lange Flowline
   Ormen Lange three-phase pipe flow
   Simulates gas, oil, and water interactions in a real-world subsea pipeline, including temperature and velocity profiles.

6. Flow Assurance Simulators Overview
   DFC 2013 - Presentation 04
   Delivered by Dr. Ove Bratland at the Dynaflow conference, this presentation covers erosion, corrosion, and software selection strategies.

7. Slug-Limit Curves in Practice
   India Energy Week 2024 | More Value, Lower Emissions ...
   Highlights the role of slug-limit curves in modern flow assurance strategies, with insights from Shell India.
