One-dimensional numerical simulations of carbon dioxide (CO₂)-rich crude-oil flows were performed with a commercial simulator for a typical offshore production pipeline under steady-state scenarios. Mixtures with 20–50 mol% CO₂ and gas/oil ratio (GOR) of 300–600 std m3/std m3 were thermodynamically ...

Drill pipe rotation is considered a relevant factor for cuttings transport and hole cleaning. However, in the term “rotation” is often used as a moniker for the combination of plain drill pipe rotation around its own axis and more complex lateral motion, as many laboratory setups feature an unconstr...

In petroleum drilling, aqueous Polyanionic Cellulose solutions (PAC) are often used as a drilling fluid model system in experimental laboratory studies to investigate cuttings transport. Cuttings transport refers to the transportation of drilled-off solids out of the wellbore. In these studies, PAC ...

In oil and gas drilling, cuttings transport related problems are a major contributor to well downtime and costs. As a result, solutions to these problems have been extensively researched over the years, both experimentally and through simulation. Numerous review articles exist, summarizing not only ...

In this paper we present our strategy and implementation of a datacentric modelling framework (SOFT, SINTEF Open Framework and Tools) with focus on information interchange in throughprocess and multiscale applications. SOFT needs to accommodate for a inhomogeneous set of in-house open source and pro...
