You should be able to get this calculation done for a few hundred bucks. If your need is critical I would find a consultant who has the Pipephase software. oil-water slug or plug flow, or oil-water stratified. In my practice I would never use one of those for a gross production stream UNLESS I had bulletproof lab and/or field data that showed (1) there was virtually no emulsion phase (2) the tendency to form an emulsion is small (3) the nature of the liquid phase flow is well-known, i.e. will get you a number for dP but you may be WAY off due to the reasons cited above.

I have done this exact work a ton of times and speak from experience. I guess I would disagree about using Dukler or BBM for design purposes. The Beggs and Brill-Moody method has been demonstrated to be particularly applicable for single and multiphase fluids and has been used for the modelling. And even then your calculated value will be ☒0% at best. The flow equation selected for this analysis was the Beggs and Brill correlation (Beggs and Brill, 1973) with the Moody friction factor (Moody, 1944) as defined in Brill and Mukherjee (1999). These will get you a MUCH better ESTIMATE of the situation. The best correlation is OLGA or one of the blackoil models embedded in PipePhase. (1973) A Study of Two-Phase Flow in Inclined. For calculating this pressure, with the combination of effective conditions, the best equation of flow regime in that well will be selected.

They assume a homogeneous liquid phase, which of course gross production is not. In this paper, we try to calculate bottomhole pressure by using PIPESIM software and simulating reservoir fluid and wellbore. the oil viscosity or the emulsion phase viscosity.

for this particular application is they have no capability to deal with the oil-water physical and bulk properties, e.g. and Beggs and Brill correlations were used for horizontal flow as they were found to be the most convenient correlations for gas lift wells, then nodal analysis. The problem with Beggs and Brill, Dukler, L&M, etc. The Pipesim software is a useful tool for simulating actual production systems and evaluating their responses to different production cases, challenges, and the impact of various.
