Advanced Applications of Fluid Dynamics and
Structural Mechanics Simulation in the Upstream
Oil and Gas Industry
Introduction
© 2010 ANSYS, Inc. All rights reserved. 2 ANSYS, Inc. Proprietary
• The marketing for the seminar announced
– Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Computational
Structural Mechanics (CSM) are extremely powerful tools
to provide information and insight to engineers and
scientists involved in the upstream oil and gas industry.
– This seminar will feature an introduction to the use of the
ANSYS simulation tools in the industry followed by
technical presentations from ANSYS UK and industry -
speakers in the two themes of produced fluid and safety.
• Let’s look at the agenda
