Production records provide important information about volumes and contribution areas in oil wells. Over time, the records are also a great contribution to monitoring of oil water contacts. In adition, with these records it is possible to test production pressure without surface wellhead’s measurements.

This new approach to obtain such information results from the need to determine the source of water in sime carbonate fields with channeling and / or coning problems, as well as to decide an optimum choke in the operation of the well.

For this reason we have implemented a new way of obtaining production records that allows us to maximize the use of data by analysis of applied engineering.
