Flow assurance is critical for effective design and operation of hydrocarbon production and transmission systems. The aim is to ensure safe and economical flow of hydrocarbon fluids from the source to the markets. As future development of hydrocarbon resources moves into more challenging environments, the importance of flow assurance is becoming more asserted.Written by an internationally recognized team of experts, Flow Assurance in Pipelines: A Reference Guide is a unique, well-researched, and comprehensive work in the flow assurance discipline that addresses the stages of a flow assurance study and identifies how they relate to the pipeline system design and operation. This book is a fundamental resource for flow assurance engineers, pipeline engineers, operators, and production chemists, providing a detailed explanation of basic flow assurance issues that can arise in the pipeline systems and discusses practical methods to solve those issues, safely and cost effectively.

Provides a systematic understanding of the concept of flow assuranceDiscusses flow assurance challenges in pipelines and how to overcome themReviews latest flow assurance technologies, engineering principles, and practicesDescribes the best operating philosophies of pipeline systems to minimize flow assurance risksExplores sustainable pipeline applications in the transition to a low-carbon economy
