Petrell – Solid CO2 Simulator

Solid CO2 Simulator

Petrell has developed a simulation system to calculate CO2 behaviour under various process conditions. Of special significance is predicting formation of solid CO2.

Solid CO2, also referred to as dry ice or cardice, can form under certain process conditions, for instance in connection with depressurization. The dry ice may then clog pipes or valves, preventing safe disposal of inventory of a process segment. Gaining insight into solid CO2 issues is of great significance for attaining correct design.

The development of SolidCO2Sim started in 2011 as initiative from Total. Statoil and Gassco joined in as partners. The project received support from the Research Council of Norway through the CLIMIT program.
