SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AND CONTROLLING PRODUCTION FROM WELLS

摘要

A system and method for obtaining enhanced production from a well is provided. The system includes a processor (150) that processes instructions contained in a computer program, which includes instructions to monitor actual flow rate of the fluid from each production zone (52a, 526) of a well over a time period corresponding to a first setting of the flow control devices and to employ a nodal analysis on a plurality of inputs from downhole sensor measurements, surface sensor measurements, one or more current positions of the devices to determine one or more new settings that will provide enhanced production from the well.
