Supercritical CO2 Demonstration Cell
For TotalEnergies, we designed a portable and secure demonstrator to visualize the phase transition of supercritical CO2 during a conference.
Fluid Dynamics & Phase Behavior
Our core expertise is designing custom-built systems that allow you to understand, measure, and visualize the most complex fluid phenomena under HPHT conditions. We master the engineering of advanced metrology (viscosity, pressure, flow, heat/mass transfer) and high-pressure visualization (sapphire cells).
This know-how allows us to address a wide range of challenges. Common applications include fluid dynamics (multiphase, turbulent flow, rheology) or thermodynamic characterization and phase behavior (PVT analysis, flow assurance).
The projects shown below are examples. Your application is unique, and our engineering department is structured to solve novel challenges.
HPHT Pilot Unit for Simulating Turbulent Flow with DRA Agents
For an energy major, this HPHT pilot (50 bar) simulates turbulent flow. It measures the effectiveness of Drag Reducing Agents (DRA) without shearing them, using a custom low-shear pump.
Custom 120 bar Sapphire Column for Gas Hydrate Research
For a global energy leader, we designed this 120 bar titanium sapphire column. It allows for visualizing gas hydrate formation in corrosive environments.
1000 Bar High-Pressure Injection Bench for Extreme Low-Temperature (-70°C) Microfluidic Studies
For microfluidics research, this bench injects fluids at 1000 bar into a network maintained at -70°C, offering precise control and visualization of the experiment.
Design and Delivery of a Turnkey PVT Laboratory with a Custom 1000 bar High-Pressure Unit
For ENSP (Sonatrach), we designed and delivered a turnkey PVT laboratory, including our full visualization PVT cell and custom high-pressure equipment.
