Multiphase Flow Simulation

MSi provides design and operations support through state-of-the-art transient multiphase pipeline simulation, computational fluid dynamics analysis; process/plant and thermodynamics modeling; finite element analysis integrated lab work; and modeling and field-testing capabilities, using state-of-the-art simulation tools like OLGA, FLUENT, HYSYS, FDG™, GUTS™, FlowMaster2, ALGOR, and other in-house developed customized software applications.

Transient, Multiphase Flow Modeling

Steady-state, multiphase models are okay for predicting pressure drop, but they just won't do for many other design and operating requirements.

MSi Consultants are the Leading Experts in the application an off-line design tool like OLGA for transient, multiphase flow simulation.

Many projects have required the development and application of specialized enhancements to meet the needs of design and operations engineers.

MSi's Consulting Team have an established expertise in Deepwater and Ultra Deepwater development. Our staff have been working on more and more in recent developments hitting the 10,000 ft mark. These were done for several projects, including those in the Gulf of Mexico, as well as in West Africa. Judging from what's brewing in deepwater and ultra deepwater developments, the operating environments are not getting any easier. If you need the expertise for these very challenging areas, MSi has field-proven experts who can address your flow assurance problems
