Patent

CA 2538536

The flow line 10, 12, 30 is provided for reducing axial separation of different density fluids passing through the flow line, such as gas and liquids. The flow line is provided with one or more grooves 16, 18, 32, 34, 36, 40 in the wall of the flow line and radially outward of a generally cylindrical bore of the tubular. Each of the one or more grooves forms a spiral along the axial length of the flow line, thereby swirling fluid passing through the flow line and causing lighter fluid to move toward a center of the flow line due to a created vortex and heavier fluid to move toward a radially outer portion of the flow line.
