Abstract

Summary In two-phase flow, both holdup and pressure loss are related to interfacial slippage. A computation model based on phase slippage has been developed that allows a priori estimation of the slip parameter values. By parameter optimization, the accuracy of the model can be improved. The model was tested with production-well data from the Forties and the Ekofisk fields and flowline data from Prudhoe Bay. It was considerably more accurate than the standard models that were used for comparison.
