Real-time analysis of mature oil wells

Wellchecker from GPsol with Promass Q and Prosonic Flow G

The oil and gas industry in Germany is facing major economic challenges. Due to a decline in hydrocarbon production, increasingly stringent environmental regulations, and significant cost pressure when it comes to mature fields, the oil production industry is having to explore new solutions. For producers to make the right decisions, analyzing the production data of individual extraction wells is of paramount importance.

Large-volume separators are traditionally used in the onshore sector. These separate the extracted oil into gas, water and crude oil during a certain retention time. This makes analyzing individual wells time-consuming and expensive. For this reason, wells are often tested for their extracted crude oil quantity and subsequent laboratory analyses are then used to draw conclusions about the constituents. It is therefore not possible to analyze the current flow volume in "real time".

The engineering team at GPsol tackled the issue and designed a compact, three-phase "Wellchecker". Together with us, they developed a system that individually measures each component and then provides as much information as possible about the current flow. By using Promass Q 300 and applying a sophisticated automation concept, the retention time of the products could be significantly reduced. For the gas measurement, We delivered Prosonic Flow G 300.
