The use of
GASMAN for gas
storage projects, has proved immensely successful due to the
fact that these storage projects heavily rely on the
performance of gas compression systems, and very accurate
interaction between the reservoir performance and compressor
operation.
The operation of compressors used in gas storage facilities is
extremely challenging as it spans the entire compressor
performance map, covering the area from 'compressor choke' to
'compressor surge', in addition, the reservoir pressures reach
their maximum during the injection season, and are
depleted close to their minimum. during the production season in
a short period of time as one year.
The
GASMAN software provides very accurate production
forecasts of reservoir and compressor performance. This accuracy
is invaluable in production optimisation and debottlenecking.
History
matching has been a key feature of
GASMAN where it
was found to provide very accurate alignment with measured data.
