摘要： A production well has nested casings including a first production casing and a first production tubing installed within the first production casing, which extends from a surface to a depth within the wellbore. Before implementing a gas-lift operation in the production well, the first production tubing is removed. A second production casing is lowered within the first production casing. The second production casing has a smaller outer diameter than an inner diameter of the first production casing. From the surface of the wellbore to the depth within the wellbore to which the second production casing extends, the inner diameter of the second production casing is expanded until an outer wall of the second production casing forms a gas-tight seal with an inner wall of the first production casing.

摘要： A method for predicting a lifespan of an electric submersible pump (ESP) involves obtaining data associated with the ESP, the data originating from different categories, predicting, using a machine learning model, based on the data, a remaining expected life of the ESP, and reporting the remaining expected life.
