Abstract
The investigation demanded an analysis of different heavy oil flows production with several API degrees,
the current conditions of fluid transport through pipeline was used; this analysis is based on simulations
of dynamic state. For the base case there are simulated parameters with low deviation, this case is considered representative, due to boundary conditions for pipeline, fluid characterization and several qualities API, pipeline conditions, ambient conditions and the maximum operation pressure of the pipeline. The conclusion for this study is that the flow assurance in the pipeline in current operating conditions is greater than flow of 14,000 bopd (barrels oil per day) for not to exceed to allowable operating pressures, whereas for transporting low flow is necessary to consider other flow alternatives management: diluent injection, flow improvers or additional heating points along the pipeline.
