PIGGING problem/case in field

[ekorahmatdona]

hello guys,

I do need your help. I'm a college student of petroleum engineering and now i'm having final project of graduation.
I intent taking PIGGING problem (simulated by OLGA sim and PVT sim) as my issue, but i haven't got the case or point to take it further.
Please, give me recommended topics/cases about pigging in the field that need to be solved by me as a college student.
Thank for your help. I do appreciate any topic or case or problem given.

Hi

There are many topics related to pipeline pigging, but as a petroleum engineer (reservoir engineer), I am wondering what can you do?

Give more guidance and we will see.

Thanks

Pigging problems are solved on site by an operatives, it is not even an engineering subject, there is nothing to analyze there, maybe amount of paraffin needed to plug the pipeline or something like that but as I know you cant do that with Pipesim with real PVT data, only thing you can simulate is inner diameter reduction due to paraffin formation. So you can take a well and its pipeline, and calculate wellhead pressure increase that will alarm you to pig the flowline...

Thank a lot for your attention, evolutionb.
I go on you that pipeline pigging is not dealing with reservoir engineering, I need any cases which is commonly faced by engineer on work, it refers to Production and problematics concerning about Pigging.
