Abstract: A. technique is provided for producing a slurry (26) of solid particulates and hydrocarbon production fluid for transport via a subsea flow line. The technique utilizes a cold flow system (20) that cools production fluid (22) to a temperature below the temperature at which hydrates and other substances precipitate from the production fluid and form solid particulates. An instrumentation and control system (44) is used to receive and process data from sensors (46) in the system. The instrumentation and control system then provides control signals to one or more components of the cold flow system to produce a slurry having solid particulates with desirable characteristics. In addition, a cooling gas may be used to facilitate sub-cooling of the production fluid. The cooling gas is compressed and cools the production fluid as the gas expands via Joule -Thompson expansion.- Furthermore, a discharge pressure controller (40) may be used to control flow through the cold flow system.

Abstract: A system for dividing a single flow into two or more secondary flows of desired ratios, including an inlet adapted to receive the single flow, at least two secondary flow lines connected to the inlet, an input device adapted to receive at least one desired ratio of flow, at least one in-situ process monitor providing measurements of products produced by each of the flows lines, and a controller connected to the input device and the in-situ process monitor. The controller is programmed to receive the desired ratio of flow through the input device, receive the product measurements from the in-situ process monitor, and calculate a corrected ratio of flow based upon the desired ratio of flow and the product measurements. If the product measurements are not equal, then the corrected ratio of flow will be different than the desired ratio of flow.

Abstract: A relatively low pressure inert gas hazard suppression system (20) is provided which is designed to protect a room (22) or the like from the effects of fire or other hazard. The system (20) includes a plurality of pressurized inert gas cylinders (24) each equipped with a valve unit (26); each valve unit (26) is in turn coupled via a conduit (28) to a delivery manifold (30). The respective valve units (26) are operable to deliver gas from the cylinders (24) at a generally constant pressure (usually around 10 - 100 bar) throughout a substantial portion of the time of gas delivery, to thereby provide effective hazard suppression without the need for expensive high-pressure gas handling and distribution hardware and a reduction in room venting area due to lower room over-pressurization.
