Bespoke rhythms monitor multi-well gas and oil flow

摘要

Production from an oil or gas platform may take place using 10-50 wells, and oil companies are having problems monitoring how much each of their wells is producing. To maximise oil recovery operators must prepare production plans. Production must be balanced to maintain efficiency and prevent the wells from being damaged. This requires a knowledge of how much each well is producing, which is difficult because the different well streams are combined into one on their way up to the platform.
