Today many oil wells are located at satellite fields and hostile offshore environment where the productions from several wells are transported via manifolds in tie-in long distant pipeline from the seabed to the receiving process facility . In this regard, a mixture of gas, oil, water and sometimes wax, hydrates, asphaltenes and sand are transported through distant pipelines to the platform for processing. The flow assurance challenges cover an entire spectrum of design tools, methods, equipment, knowledge and professional skills needed to ensure the safe, uninterrupted and simultaneous transport of gas, oil and water from the reservoirs to the processing facility. Slug flow is one of the flow assurance challenge encountered in such long distant hydrocarbon transport. The book active control of hydrodynamic slug flow investigated the application of active feedback control technology to mitigate hydrodynamic slug flow challenge in the pipeline to enhance oil production and recovery. ...
