Project Short Description:
As a Variation Order for the main project (Lifecycle OTS), Inprocess was requested to perform a detailed depressurization analysis in dynamics for the GL Riser, using the Symmetry process simulator from Schlumberger. The study had to consider dynamic changes of composition and temperature at the HP Flare Cold header, taking into account the heat transfer phenomena. A sensitivity analysis was included on three options, modifying the key parameters and combining the effects of the different options.
