248 is slightly higher due to the presence of liquid flow which is compensated for by the change in elevation from the inlet to the outlet calculations for the peak differential pressure and static head for these conditions can easily be performed as can the average flow rates for each condition by way of additional components two auxiliary connections 262 and 264 may extend outwardly from outlet 250 as shown a branch 266 of outlet 264 may extend upward to meet the connection 241 discussed previously outlet 262 may be a connection for a combined pressure and temperature transmitter of a type used subsea with outlet 262 may be the combination point for incoming fluid and the recirculated fluid with outlet 264 being the connection point for fluid from the glcc that is being recirculated it is to be appreciated that while the glcc recirculation arrangement and liquid slug distributor may each singly be incorporated into a general subsea multiphase pumping system of their own accord there is contemplated in accordance with a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention a very advantageous combination of the two each on its own can help ensure that a minimum liquid flow threshold e g u02dc 5 as already described can be maintained however particular advantages are.
