    Complementary Pipeline Design and Production Operation with PIPESIM Steady State and OLGA Dynamic Simulators

    • Foundation
    • 2 Days
    • classroom1Classroom

    During this two day course, you will learn PIPESIM steady-state and OLGA dynamic multiphase flow simulators to understand and solve typical flow assurance challenges.


    This interactive course includes step-by-step instructions for building PIPESIM network models by importing shapefiles and modeling fluids in PIPESIM. PIPESIM slug catcher analysis will be performed along with corrosion analysis. The PIPESIM model is the first step in understanding how the facility handles the amount of volume during steady-state condition. This PIPESIM pipeline model will then be converted to an OLGA model, in which a more thorough slug catcher design can be performed, including ramp-up, different pigging frequency scenarios, and separator modeling.


    All the main features of PIPESIM and OLGA GUI are covered, allowing you to simply build, edit, run models, and analyze the results. Students will understand the advantages of using both PIPESIM and OLGA simulation as part of the pipeline flow assurance modeling workflow in network modeling.
