With the development, qualification and field installation of multiphase pump systems, a new tool has been made available to the oil and gas industry for enhanced production from existing installations or new field developments. This paper presents an overview of the realization of and economical benefits gained in various field installations carried out the last years and to be completed in the near future, using equipment qualified and manufactured by Framo Engineering AS. The experience and potentials from the comprehensive Field Installation Programmes, as described below, show that implementation of multiphase booster pumps gives a good economical potential in the field developments. This is mainly due to an increase in basic production rates and the potential in increased recoverable reserves. It has also shown that multiphase pumps can operate in various and often harsh well environments providing significant well stream pressure boost.
