Theoretical Study of Sand Entrainment and Deposits in Horizontal Oil Transport
Sand deposition in horizontal pipes transporting crude oil and sand affects oil recovery and causes loss of pipe
integrity. One way of avoiding sand deposition in lines is by identifying potential sand deposit points for mounting boosters to
help boost the inertia force of the flowing stream. This paper investigates a model approach to the problem. Results from
simulation give potential sand...
