Important Elements
Supply Sets of 3 supplies are configured and the fluid at each of these supplies has a unique composition for the gas. Delivery The deliveries are configured at minimum pressures and maximum flow; one delivery (D2) has a restriction on the percentage CO2 that it can accept Tracking Options Quality tracking has to be enabled for this case to determine the composition of the gas that the deliveries receive
The Scenario
The system consists of 3 supplies. The fluid at each source has a unique composition. There are contract limitations because of which the CO2 quantity that is delivered at the delivery D2 and has to be regulated. Each supply will have constraints with regard to the maximum pressure / flow. Steady state scenarios have to be run in order to determine the capacity in the network without violating the contract norms

Gas Network Training Case Study 1 (continued) INSTRUCTORS SOLUTION OBSERVATIONS AND QUESTIONS
1) What are the Steady State pressures at D1, D2 and D3? Pressure at D1 = 353.11 psig
% CO2 at D2 = 7.59
% CO2 at D3 = 8.5
3) There is a contractual condition to deliver gas to D2 with a % CO2 content is equal or less than 6%. Make the adjustments in the supply S2 to achieve this. Flow in S2 = 57 mmscfd will be enough to have less than 6 %
4) What are the flow in supplies S1, S2, S3 and the % of CO2 at the deliveries D1, D2 and D3 S1 = 100 mmscfd % CO2 at D1 = 8
S2 = 57 mmscfd
% CO2 at D2 = 5.975
S3 = 98 mmscfd
% CO2 at D3 = 8.5
Important Elements
Supply Sets of 3 supplies are configured and the fluid of these supplies has two different fluid gas composition. Delivery The delivery is configured using maximum flow; this delivery (D1) has a restriction on the percentage H2S that it can accept. There is a contractual condition to deliver gas to D1 with a % H2S content equal or less than 1%. The other three deliveries are configured just to verify the gas quality. Tracking Options Temperature and quality tracking have to be enabled for this case to determine the composition of the gas that the deliveries receive
The Scenario
The system consists of 3 supplies and 4 deliveries three of those will be use as a check point to verify the fluid quality. The fluid at each source has two different compositions one fluid will contain the H2S value after processing plant and one fluid will have higher value that represent the H2S when the process plant is out of service. The scenario is about a failure in the process plant and the H2S value has to be carefully monitor to determine the new quality and how long does it takes the new quality arrive to the delivery or terminal point.
Use the configuration layout as a reference to configure the network and use the configuration name: Case1A.
