Influence of water cutting degree of partially degassed oil emulsions on hydraulic features of subsea pipelines
M.M. GuliyevThe paper studies the influence of water cutting degree of partially degassed oil emulsions on hydraulic features of subsea gathering pipelines and transportation of oil-gas-water systems from fixed platforms. Considering water cutting degree of oil-gas systems, total pressure losses, as well as losses from resistance forces and gravitation in certain pipeline were specified. It was defined that by increase of water cutting degree of partially degassed emulsions unlike gravitation losses, pressure loss proportion on tension rises and in water cutting degree of 80 % it comprises 80 % from total pressure loss.
