... production systems and extensiveness of deepwater fields present challenges in implementing hydrate management strategies. In the past, erroneous and ad-hoc strategies were implemented due to a lack of flow assurance (FA) awareness and understanding, resulting in production deferment caused by frequent...

... results (both laboratory and field) were used to validate the methodology presented here. The findings of our work will lead to significant cost-savings in performing both flow assurance risk assessments and inhibitor qualification. Rather than going to the significant expense and operational difficulty...

.... Several studies are conducted prior to commencement of the relocation. One of them is to evaluate flow assurance issues before, during reconnection to the new facility, commissioning, start-up and subsequent operations. These aspects are evaluated through steady state and transient simulations...
