... methodology, for strain-based pipelines. The subjects addressed include selecting the Type B split sleeve as a repair candidate, finite element modeling of the repair, sleeve welding with in-service flow conditions, and full-scale proof testing of three repaired pipes. INTRODUCTION Production and delivery...

... Abstract More realistic assumptions with respect to the real flow condition in offshore production need to be made in order to predict liquid loading, and two aspects have been improved, focusing on the droplet's generation and breakup. A modified model and liquid loading criteria are deduced...

...., 2007; Myers et al., 2010). This can be very useful for collecting repeatable measurements to assist in the understanding of how these devices can perform and how they are affected by minor variations in flow conditions. However, such experiments are often conducted using simplified or hypothetical flow...
