Eclipse networks

Include surface network constraints in your reservoir simulation

Overview

The networks option is designed to provide variable tubing head pressure (THP) limits to groups of wells which depend on the groups’ flow rates according to a et of pipeline pressure loss relationships

Applications

The Eclipse simulator enables users to easily simulate any field development strategy and can allow extensibility for coupling to external simulators.

Benefits

Every well (or group of wells) in the Eclipse simulation can have production / injection rates and pressure targets. In addition, dedicated models support gas field operations, gas lift optimization, surface networks and reservoir coupling.

Features

The networks option calculates the well THP limits dynamically by balancing the flow rates and pressure losses in the network. The network constraints work in conjunction with any additional specified targets or limits in the usual way.
