Africa / Middle East Oil and Gas Flow Assurance Summit 2008
Gas Hydrate problems, Black Powder issues, Security and Product Theft, Control Of Pipeline Deposits are challenges faced by all pipeline operators, that if not controlled, can significantly affect product throughput efficiencies and reduce investment rate of returns.
High pressure and high temperature (HP/HT) pose the unique challenge for flow assurance and engineers on how to design and operate the system to provide relief from high temperatures in early life, or at high rates while ensuring operability and flow via heat retention in later life or at low rates.
Additional issues such as complex fluids (heavy oils), deep waters, cold environment (cold flow), subsea processing and long distance transport of unprocessed well stream fluids in subsea pipelines, has made product flow assurance a critical concern for oil and gas development and ultra deepwater activity. Overcoming such challenges is vital to ensuring the continuous and consistent product flow required from the reservoir to the processing offshore platform or onshore facility.
As a response to these challenges, UNI presents the Africa / Middle East Oil and Gas Flow Assurance Summit 2008 in Cairo Egypt, a carefully researched and organized event that will provide a plat form to discuss and address the many flow assurance challenges, issues and operability on current offshore and onshore projects, large scale offshore investments. Explore the latest technology applications, gain the latest business intelligence, address the challenges and identify solutions that will enable your company to maximize production and recovery while managing investments and operating expenses.
