Overview
What you will study
In the oil and gas field, real-time and accurate measurement and control of the oil-gas flows are essential for proper asset management. Various flow metering technologies are available for either single-phase or multiphase flow measurement. This includes nuclear x-ray, ultrasonic, orifice, Venturi, Turbine, Coriolis, magnetic, vortex, cross-correlation, and NIR-based meters.
Recently, Magnetic Resonance (MR)-based technologies started to emerge as a new promising technique for multiphase flow metering. The Oil and gas flow measurement and control course offered by Khalifa University will cover various control algorithms used for flow control, together with the associated hardware which includes the control valves, PLCs, and P&ID diagrams.
