Abstract
Erosion has been long recognised as a potential source of problems in oil and gas production systems. Erosion is a complex process that is affected by numerous factors and small or subtle changes in operational conditions can significantly affect the damage it causes with major safety and financial consequences. The industry is constantly looking for ways to accurately predict/model erosion in order to better manage erosion in oil and gas systems. The presentation will focus on different case studies performed in Wood on erosional analysis and potential ways to mitigate it.
