| Innovative new multiphase pump developed (30/08/2007, ) |
|
Unitl now, all multiphase pumping applications were related to unprocessed fluid coming from the wells of an oil field.
Generally speaking, the pressure boost requirement was relatively high (at least 10 bar / 150 psi) and the required flow up to 4,000 m3/h (17,500 USgpm). The pumped fluid was a mixture of oil, water and gas (up to 95% gas content) plus a small amount of solid particles such as sand. Typically, multiphase pumping was an upstream production application resulting in a multistage design.
