Dear friends,
Please anybody may assist on the below query,
I am doing pipeline sizing for crude oil multi phase fluid, which contain oil,gas (Less than 5 GOR) and water. the viscosity of the oil is around 9000 cP. i tried in the PIPESIM software to find the line sizing, it gave higher back pressure on the wellhead. please anyone assist on this, which flow correlation and viscosity correlation to be used for these kind of high viscous crude.
one more thing, i was found that Nre<2100, which was fall in the laminar region.
Advance Thanks
Regards
Krishna.
