  • Patent number: 11809793
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for modelling flow conditions in a well system, the well system being represented by a number of branches (1,1a) conducting hydrocarbons from at least one branch entry point (3,3a) to a branch exit point (2), at least one of said branches constituting a global well system exit point, wherein each branch has a branch entry point (3,3a) being provided with a least one flow inlet (4) and being related to known boundary conditions and with a input flow control unit (7) being related to adjustable flow characteristics for controlling the flow through said input, said boundary conditions including predetermined data concerning at least one of pressure, temperature and flow at said input flow control unit, and said branch conduit includes an branch flow control unit (6), having adjustable flow characteristics for controlling the flow through the branch.
