Brief
sPipe is a simple surface pipeline sizing tool.
It calculates the pressure drop in oil, gas and water flowlines.
Typical applications include
- Estimation of flowrate with defined pressures at inlet and outlet
- Estimation of inlet and outlet pressures for achieving target flowrate
- Selection of pipeline size
- Estimation of mixture velocity
Main features
- Plot of pressure profile vs length
- Result table with pressure, velocity and hold-up
- Sensitivity analysis
- Using prepared PVT models
- Account for elevation
Interface features
- Save and share references to saved models with colleagues
- Last saved model on current computer and browser is automatically opened
- Choose between Metric units and US oilfield units.
- Save as image and print plot by means of chart context menu (button at the upper-right corner of chart)
- Download report in pdf format containing input parameters, calculated values and plot
- Select and copy results to Excel or other application
