Abstract: Disclosed is a method for suppressing and controlling liquid slugs and gas surges in a stream of multiphase fluid flowing from a flowline into a gas/liquid separator having a liquid outlet with a liquid flow control valve, and a gas outlet with a gas flow control valve, and a control system for monitoring said control variables and adjusting said control valves which comprises: a) Measuring at least one control variable selected from the group of the liquid level in the separator, the liquid flow rate in the liquid outlet, the gas flow rate in the gas outlet, the sum of the liquid flow rate in the liquid outlet and the gas flow rate in the gas outlet, and the fluid pressure at or near the separator; b) Entering said measurements to a control system with a controller for receiving said values as a mathematical number and responding to preset numbers; c) Said control system adjusting said liquid and gas flow control valves to reduce a difference between a selected control variable and a pre-set reference val
