Maximus® integrated production and transport network modeling software (IPM) with field planning capabilities allows modeling of the entire asset from the reservoir to facilities throughout the whole life of the field, providing engineers with unique insights for optimal decision-making in design and operations.
Maximus equips production and flow assurance engineers with the capability to evaluate the true asset potential over the life of the field. It provides key insights into the risks associated with obstructions to the flow, such as hydrates, waxes, asphaltenes, liquid holdup, emulsions, and asset integrity, including corrosion and erosion. As an effective collaboration and communications tool, Maximus expedites the engineer's decision-making to help control costs and production losses in design and operations.

"While dynamics and steady states simulations are well-established concepts and standard practices of every asset design or asset management projects, life of field simulations are often confined to small groups of engineers in field planning and field development activities. As a result, the slow, but continuous evolution of the reservoir and the asset over the life of field, cannot be captured by either transient or steady-state modeling. This causes sub-optimal design, excessive design margins, and costly operations. In some cases, this may induce catastrophic incidents and production losses."
As CCS projects move from ideas and plans to concept, design, and execution, the need for integrated modeling between facilities and reservoir becomes even more pressing. Maximus is unique in that capability, conjugating accurate compositional thermo-hydraulic and flow assurance with subsurface and life of field simulations to provide engineers with unique insights and tools for rapid decision-making in design and operations.

There is a greater need to manage for value. However maximum value is not always maximum flow; this can sometimes lead to value destruction. So what does managing for value mean for an upstream producer?
