PIPESIM Well Design & Production Performance Analysis

Are you challenged with enhancing production and designing optimum completions? PIPESIM production system analysis software provides a thorough, fast, and efficient means to help you increase production and understand your reservoir’s potential.

PIPESIM software not only models multiphase flow from the reservoir to the wellhead, but also considers flowline and surface facilities performance for a comprehensive production system analysis.

Benefits

• Performs a comprehensive nodal analysis at any point in your hydraulic system using multiple sensitivity parameters
• Designs new and analyze existing vertical, horizontal, and multilateral wells
• Designs gas lift and ESP systems with software supported by Schlumberger artificial lift expertise
• Generates VFP tables for input into ECLIPSE reservoir simulation system models

Artificial Lift System Design

PIPESIM software provides a comprehensive design solution for ESP and gas lift systems. Developed and used worldwide by Schlumberger's own artificial lift experts for design and analysis, PIPESIM is field-proven, efficient, and easy to use.

Well performance analysis for ESP system design

PIPESIM provides a comprehensive well performance analysis solution for a complete ESP system design. The software provides the latest information on ESP technology and equipment, and it uses the fluid, well, and reservoir information to predict the inflow and outflow performance of an ESP well design.

With the software you can accurately design and select each system component for your well—subsurface pump, motor and cables.

• Quick, accurate analysis of well inflow performance
• Accurate ESP selection
• Accurate ESP component performance prediction in field conditions
• Comprehensive ESP catalog representing major ESP vendors
• Ability for users to specify additional ESP performance curves
• Viscosity corrections 
• Minimized downtime through continuous ESP operation under well conditions
• Maximized production through best-suited ESP selection
• Automatic tolerance and clearance checking
• Quick, accurate ESP design

Reduced uncertainty with gas lift system design

PIPESIM software package provides a comprehensive well performance analysis solution for a complete gas lift system design. PIPESIM sizes and analyzes an entire gas lift system, optimizes design, and improves performance to increase production. PIPESIM defines the wellbore schematic and accurately sizes all the downhole components.

You can leverage a comprehensive database of components, including the latest gas lift technology and equipment. The software simplifies the process of optimizing and accurately predicting future well performance under different conditions.

• Saves time with quick, accurate analysis of well inflow performance.
• Quickly determine the deepest injection point possible
• Reduces uncertainty about current and future well performance with bracketing operations.
• Detailed gas lift system design for both existing mandrels and new designs
• Flexibility in design Methods: Injection Pressure Operated (IPO) and Production Pressure Operated (PPO)
• Minimizes downtime through continuous gas lift operation.
• Maximizes production through best-suited gas lift equipment selection.
• Gas lift valve catalog representing major gas lift valve manufacturers
• Ability to user define new gas lift valves
