As oil/gas subsea fields mature, the amount of water produced increases, which results in an increased risk of gas hydrate plug formation in the flowlines.

If the control of wax deposition is not effective, the waxy deposits can build up significantly with time and cause disruption of production, reduction of throughput, and even complete blockage of the flowlines.

The present study proposes a new methodology that estimates the acceptable injection rate of a hydrate inhibitor considering the random failure and subsequent maintenance of the topside system followed by the cooldown of the flowlines and risers where hydrate can potentially form.

The flowline leads the produced fluid to separators.

The wellhead pressure pwh is found by adding the flowing pressure losses in the flowline to the separator pressure psep.
