Model production from the reservoir to the delivery point

Piper? gathering systems software enables production evaluation from the reservoir through wellbores, flowlines, and surface facilities to the delivery point. It helps engineering teams identify bottlenecks, backpressure, capacity limits, and potential production opportunities.

Teams can compare existing and proposed configurations, examine operating changes, forecast production, and review economic implications in a connected model.

Model gathering systems and evaluate production scenarios

• Diagnose gathering-system constraints: Identify bottlenecks, high backpressure, capacity limits, and other conditions that restrict production.
• Compare development scenarios: Evaluate infill wells, compression, pumps, loops, facility expansions, and alternative system configurations.
• Forecast production: Model how well, reservoir, and network behavior may change through time under defined assumptions.
• Evaluate economics: Compare project cash flow, net present value, and scenario economics using approved inputs.
• Plan time-based changes: Represent system configurations and operating changes across a development schedule.

Gain a comprehensive view of gathering-system performance

• System-level visibility: Assess wells, flowlines, and facilities together instead of treating each component as an isolated calculation.
• Faster scenario comparison: Test proposed operating or development changes against a consistent network model.
• Clearer constraint diagnosis: Use mapped and visual diagnostics to locate backpressure, bottlenecks, and capacity limitations.
• Engineering and economic context: Review production impact and project economics within the same scenario framework.

Access integrated modeling, forecasting, and economic analysis tools

• Integrated network model: Represent reservoirs, wellbores, flowlines, and surface facilities from source to delivery point.
• Multiphase and fluid modeling: Apply supported multiphase-flow correlations and fluid-property methods, including black-oil and equation-of-state options.
• GIS-based mapping: Visualize the gathering system geographically and inspect calculated operating conditions.
• Production forecasting: Run time-based forecasts using defined well, reservoir, facility, and operating assumptions.
• Facilities and optimization scenarios: Evaluate compression, pumps, loops, capacities, and alternative configurations.
• Economics and project management: Compare scenario economics and manage configuration changes across time.
