Flow Assurance for CO2 Transportation - Injection System Design and Operation (CCS /CCUS Academy)

Level: Foundation | Type: Classroom | Discipline: New Energies Projects Scope Planning

This course covers the key concept, workflow, best practices, and hands-on experience for flow assurance (FA) study in the CO2 pipeline transportation and well injection of CCS/CCUS projects. The course content focuses on the essential flow assurance fundamentals and assessment for a CO2 transportation-injection system during normal and transient operations over its system life. The assessment provides vital inputs for the optimum design and operation of this kind of systems.


The course content is designed to take the attendees through the typical development workflow and phases of a CO2 transportation-injection system. Every session covers a lecture followed by some hands-on assignments for CO2 transportation-injection system design. The project is based on actual data, where each session and the respective design tasks continue from the previous session.


At the end of this course, the attendees should understand the essential flow assurance fundamentals, workflow and best practices for a CO2 transportation-injection system design and operation. The attendees should be able to perform the essential flow assurance assessment and provide the respective inputs for optimum design and operation of CO2 transportation-injection systems.


Note: This course is part of the SLB-CCS/CCUS Academy which has been created to fast track the development of the technical understanding and hands-on skills of petrol technical, flow assurance, process and facility engineers, and other technical engineers involved in CCS/CCUS projects.

  • Petrol technical, flow assurance, process and facility engineers, and other technical engineers involved in CCS/CCUS projects.
  • Professionals who are interested to gain additional knowledge and hands-on skills in flow assurance assessment for CO2 pipeline transportation and well injection of CCS/CCUS projects.

The main objectives for the course are listed below:

  • Gain an overview and understanding of CCS transportation-injection system design and operation.Learn about fluid-flow behaviors and characteristics in CCS transportation-injection systems.
  • Identify the roles of flow assurance in CCS transportation-injection systems development and operation.
  • Learn about the fundamentals, workflow and best practices of fluid-flow modelling and analysis for CCS developments. 
  • Learn about CO2 transportation system design, operation, safety considerations, guidelines and regulations.
  • Hands-on experience of flow assurance assessment for CO2 transportation-injection system design and operation based on an actual project.


The key topics which will be covered in the course are:
  • Introduction to CCS chain, CO2 transportation-injection system and its flow assurance.
  • CO2 in CCS – the understanding, fluid modelling and preparation for flow modelling.
  • CO2 transportation system design and sizing, flow assurance and CO2 products specification.
  • Injection system design, flow assurance and safety considerations.
  • CO2 transportation-injection system transient operations and safety measures.
  • Group assignment on a flow assurance study for the development of a CO2 transportation-injection system.

  • Able to build and execute OLGA models using basic OLGA, Pipeline Editor and Well Editor.
  • Able to model fluid using Multiflash.

OLGA is the main flow modeling tool for performing the coursework in this training. Consider  OLGA CCS Flow Assurance (5 days) training course if you are new to OLGA, or if you are interested in a refresher session focusing on OLGA for CCS.
