The remote monitoring of wells has grown significantly over the years and—like a doctor tending to a patient—operators use a variety of tools to gauge the health of their wells. By deciphering the data provided by various gauges, operators gain critical insights into the life expectancy of the well and its downhole equipment. While wells are typically tested on a monthly basis, there is an option that offers real-time analysis of production flow rates from wells equipped with electric submersible pumps (ESPs). The real-time production flow-rate analysis service works well with commingled wells requiring back allocation, when determining zonal back allocation for multilayered reservoirs, with low-mobility wells requiring reservoir pressure monitoring, in unconventional wells with changing flow regimes, and for wells with intermittent production.
