In this course, you explore PIPESIM* production system analysis software that provides steady-state, multiphase flow simulation for oil and gas production systems. You use individual PIPESIM modules for a wide range of analyses, including well modeling, nodal analysis, field planning, artificial lift optimization, pipeline design and equipment sizing. A major feature of PIPESIM software is the system integration and openness that allows you to develop a Total Production System Model. You gain a general understanding of how PIPESIM software is used to design and optimize total production systems from the reservoir to the final processing delivery point.
