VLP Package

This package calculates vertical lift performance tables for wells

Usage

Run the workflows from this package to perform the calculations. The schedules may be adapted to use different contexts.

Details

The same marching algorithm that is used in the Gradients (p, T, H) package is employed to calculate a well's vertical lift performance. This is achieved by putting in a customizable range of flow rates and calculating the corresponding pressure. The results are stored as reference table.

Data Requirements

The following data is required:
 api gravity oil
 casing inner diameter
 CO2 content
 directional survey true vertical depth
 gas oil ratio
 gas specific gravity
 H2S content
 perforation top
 production casing depth
 reservoir temperature
 solution gas oil ratio at bubble point
 tubing depth
 tubing inner diameter
 water cut
 water salinity
 water specific gravity
 well head pressure
 well head temperature

Further comments

When overriding the scope, make sure to use a scope containing depth information (From depth, To depth, Depth Step).
