A method and device for transferring a multiphase flow to a predetermined location through a pipe. The multiphase flow is comprised of at least a liquid phase and a gas phase. The multiphase flow is provided to a flow divider that diverts a gas portion from the multiphase flow. A compressor and a pump are in fluid communication with the flow divider. The main gas portion is boosted by the compressor, and the residual liquid/gas portion is boosted by the pump. A recombination manifold then recombines the gas portion and the residual liquid portion. A single pipe receives the recombined multiphase flow and transfers it to a predetermined location.

1. A method for transferring a multiphase flow to a predetermined location in a pipe, said multiphase flow comprised of at least a liquid phase and a gas phase, said method comprising:providing said multiphase flow to a flow divider, said flow divider comprising at least one vessel, said at least one vessel comprising at least one inner tube adapted to facilitate flow therein, said at least one inner tube adapted to receive said multiphase flow, and release a gas portion of said multiphase flow, and to release a remainder of said multiphase flow; diverting said gas portion from said multiphase flow in said flow divider; passing said remainder of said multiphase flow through a pump; passing said gas portion through a compressor; recombining said gas portion with said remainder of said multiphase flow; and transferring said multiphase flow to said predetermined location through said pipe.
