The oil may he entrained in the gas rising in the vertical well from the sea-bed or may flow under its own pressure gradient; condensate may result from the reduction of pressure from well conditions to pipeline transport pressure and from cooling sea temperatures. It would be unduly expensive to build a gas-liquid separation facility on a production platform, followed by two separate pipeline transport systems for the two phases. It is therefore desirable to examine pipeline systems that carry hydrocarbon liquid and gas together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo-phase flow of oil and gas under steady-state operation of the Matagorda Offshore Pipeline System was observed by nuclear densitometry at two onshore sites. Oil flowed into the pipeline system at an average rate of 1.6 Bbl\/ MMSCF over the two-month data acquisition period; gas flow was constant at about 200 MMSCF per day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRCI Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44362013376590,"sku":"15101","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/prci-store.myshopify.com\/products\/l51510-field-observations-of-two-phase-flow-in-the-matagorda-offshore-pipeline-system","provider":"PRCI Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
