... Abstract Artificial lift is the backbone of unconventional field production. Lifting oil and gas in an optimal manner and economically is one of the most challenging phases of field development with depleting reservoir energy. Traditional approaches of lift selection are not sufficient...

... Abstract Hydraulic fracturing pumping data is recorded and mapped in the field at one-second intervals. The designation of the stage start and end time is very important because these boundaries govern summary calculations, such as pressure, rate, and concentrations. Manual selection of staging...

... Abstract The use of acid is an important well maintenance tool in removing near wellbore damage to restore a reservoir’s natural permeability and represents one of the most economic options in managing base decline. The selection of acid maintenance candidates however can be a complex process...

Abstract The application of a novel modeling and data assimilation approach is presented, demonstrating the impact of quantitatively modeled and optimized cyclic steam candidate and steam volume selection in a mature heavy oil field. Results are reviewed for a cyclic steam operation in the San...

... Once the structure of the BDN is defined, it is required to define the probability states associated with each node. These are given in Table 1 through Table 5 . The model is designed in a way that the engineer will select his uncertainty nodes (treating fluid and/or type of drilling fluid...

... recovery. The decision of which artificial lift method to use is very important to the long-term profitability of the field. An improper selection of artificial lift can reduce production and increase the operating cost substantially. Once a decision has been made on the type to install on a well, it can...
