VLP generation
To generate VLP tables, go to the "VLP generation" tab.
1.To run the calculation, fill in the following data:
- tubing head pressure;
- water cut;
- gas oil ratio;
- flow rate type.
| If any tests were entered on the "Well model matching" tab, you can automatically pull data from a test by clicking "Fill from test" and selecting the target test from the drop-down list. |
2.Then add different cases for a calculation series by clicking "Add". After that, you can add or generate a parameter series on the right side of the screen.
3.For a well equipped with an ESP, the following parameter set is required:
- tubing head pressure;
- water cut;
- gas oil ratio;
- flow rate;
- ESP frequency.
4.For a well equipped with an SRP, the following parameter set is required:
- tubing head pressure;
- water cut;
- gas oil ratio;
- flow rate;
- stroke rate (per minute).
5.After adding cases, click "Calculate VLP" in the upper-right corner of the screen. While the calculation is running, the button is inactive, and the lock next to the model name in the model tree becomes pale.
