CATHERINE LABES-CARRIER is an academic who published a paper in 2008 entitled HYD,,ATE PLUG FORMATION PREDICTION TOOL â€" AN INCREASING NEED FOR FLOW ASSURANCE IN THE OIL IN. CATHERINE LABES-CARRIER published this work as part of a team: Kinnari, Keijo. Here is a description of this work: Hydrate plugging of hydrocarbon production conduits can cause large operational problems resulting in considerable economical losses. Modeling capabilities to predict hydrate plugging occurrences would help to improve facility design and operation in order to reduce the extent of such events. It would also contribute to a more effective and safer remediation process. This paper systematically describes different operational scenarios where hydrate plugging might occur and how a hydrate plug formation prediction tool would be beneficial. The current understanding of the mechanisms for hydrate formation, agglomeration and plugging of a pipeline are also presented. The results from this survey combined with the identified industrial needs are then used as a basis for the assessment of the capabilities of an existing hydrate pl.
