Calculation of parameters for the offshore field re-equipment

Process modeling and simulation of processing units by means of modern software is the main tool for informed decision-making during the technical re-equipment of the production complex.
Engineers of Nafta Expert LLC in cooperation with the team of Morneftegazproekt JSC run calculations on the oil and gas processing model to find optimal solution. Hydraulic calculations were performed and equipment parameters were selected to increase the performance of technological systems:
• Performance indicators for oil and gas processing system were obtained for cases of decommissioning of its particular units and forecasting planned and unplanned shutdowns of process equipment;
• Bottlenecks of the process system including amine scrubbing were revealed. It made possible to select optimum equipment operating mode;
• Overall efficiency and economic feasibility of initiatives for the offshore field re-equipment were approved.
