TubeFlow FA                         
A Flow Simulator for Subsea FlowLine-Riser Interventions
TubeFlow FA is a transient flow simulator that can be used to model subsea flowline-riser interventions with coiled tubing. These types of operations are especially useful to combat flow assurance problems in flowlines and risers by eliminating blockages due to paraffin/wax/hydrates in deep water environments. Applications that can be modeled using TubeFlow FA are listed below:

  • easy-to-use, quick calculations, sensitivity analysis
  • project configuration includes import/export/email features
  • English, SI, customizable units
  • non-Newtonian and multiphase flow modeling with heat transfer
  • multicomponent modeling and PVT properties through seamless integration with FluidProps
  • graphical capabilities include save and compare options
  • reporting includes printing to MS Word and exporting data to MS Excel

Features

Fluid Systems
In TubeFlow FA, a list of pre-configured fluids that commonly flow through flowline-riser systems is provided for convenience and ease of use.  Moreover, flexibility exists to create user-defined fluids for use in a particular project. Fluid systems that can be modeled include, but are not limited to:

Flowline-Riser Configuration
TubeFlow FA provides a database of standard pipe sizes to configure coiled tubing and flowline- riser systems. In addition, a database of typical nozzle combinations is provided to configure nozzles in the CT bottomhole assembly. Various flowline-riser configurations (e.g. insulated pipe, pipe-in-pipe) are considered in the model setup.   Ambient conditions can be set to either buried or submerged to model the heat transfer which is extremely important for flow assurance
