OVIP has different phases:
Field data
A large emphasis in the OVIP project is on collecting new field data and doing comparisons with OLGA. The OVIP databank is the largest multiphase flow data bank ever assembled.
Experiments
IFE’s experimental facilities include several laboratories for multiphase flow technologies. Based on results from such experiments, mathematical flow models are developed. These are then implemented in the multiphase transport simulation code for OLGA.
Modeling
Much of the later developments in OLGA have been concentrated in two areas:
- Condensate and water accumulation in large gas condensate pipelines.
- Three-phase slug tracking in oil dominated pipeline and riser systems.
