Abstract:
Displaying a graphical representation of hydrocarbon production parameters. At least some of the various embodiments are methods including: reading historical values of a production parameter of a hydrocarbon well; calculating a plurality of deviation values with respect to a respective plurality of planned values regarding the production parameter; displaying, on a display device of a computer system, an overhead view of a location of the hydrocarbon well within a hydrocarbon field; and displaying, on the display device proximate the location, a graphical image that depicts each of the plurality of deviation values.
Abstract:
Selecting hydrocarbon wells for well testing. The selecting may include identifying hydrocarbon wells whose last well test took place prior to a predetermined date; identifying hydrocarbon wells with a parameter that exceeds a predetermined threshold; and selecting a predetermined number of hydrocarbon wells from the wells identified.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for monitoring, diagnosing and optimizing operation of a gas lift (GL) system, at least some of which include a method that includes collecting measured data representative of the GL system's state, storing the measured data, comparing the measured data to a well model's calculated data for the well and identifying likely conditions of the GL system based on mismatches between the measured data and the calculated data. The method further includes updating the model to reflect the likely conditions and selected corrections of the likely conditions, generating GL system performance curves using the updated model and presenting to a user actions recommended to achieve a GL system performance consistent with a GL system operating point on at least one of the GL system performance curves.
