Advanced Pipeline Designs to Increase Hydrocarbon Flow

2022-09-24
The 24-inch MEDGAZ high pressure deepwater pipeline runs for 210 km along the seabed of the Mediterranean Sea, transporting natural gas from the Beni Saf Compressor Station (BSCS) on the coast of Algeria to the Offshore Pressure Regulation Station (OPRT) at Almería on the coast of Spain and into the Enagas transportation network. The pipeline reaches a maximum depth of 2,155 m as it crosses the Mediterranean.
This paper presents key aspects of the fl ow assurance studies carried out during the FEED and detailed engineering phases of the project with particular attention to the requirements for a deepwater natural gas pipeline. Moreover, the particular requirements for deepwater pipeline commissioning and operation are discussed.
MEDGAZ has relied on the use of modeling systems from the early design phases of the project where steady state and transient simulators were used to aid in the design and in the verification of the expected hydraulic performance of the pipeline. This paper presents modeling of the pipeline with a focus on those elements and modules not often found in pipeline simulation.
