Abstract: The estimation of pressure drop for multiphase flow in wells is one of the most complex problems in oil field practice. Multiphase flow pressure profile is extremely difficult to analyze. Fortunately, the availability of the computer simulators in the petroleum industry has enhanced the investigation of the multiphase flow problem. In most cases in the petroleum industry, pressure histories of wells used for production analysis is not measured directly at bottom – hole condition, but is calculated from surface measurements by the use of Multiphase Flow Correlations. Five of the best vertical and horizontal correlations were chosen and evaluated in this study; the Hagedorn & Brown, Duns & Ros, Orkiszewski, Beggs & Brill, and Eaton methods. The accuracy of these correlations was determined against measured multiphase flow pressure drop data from 40 wells. A separate main program was written for each pressure loss prediction method, with fluid property correlations handled as subroutines. The programming steps were selected in order to minimize the inaccuracies of average physical prosperities and at the same time, to maintain a reasonably short computation time. Using the proposed computer model in this project, no two methods yielded identical results for a given set of flow conditions. One of the correlations 100% accurately predicted the pressure losses in the wells for both vertical and horizontal flow. Considering the percentage error, the Orkiszewski and Hagedorn & Brown models were superior to Duns and Roas in most flow regions for vertical wells. Beggs & Brill method also perform satisfactorily for horizontal wells in all flow regions, and should therefore be considered as the first choice in such wells, ahead of Eaton et al.
