AI Technical Summary
Conventional gas field planning production profile methods are cumbersome and prone to errors, especially when the workload deployment cycle is increased from annual to monthly, making it difficult to adjust the gas production profile and lacking a fast and accurate planning method.
By selecting typical wells, a single-well production profile for the entire production cycle is established. The relationship between the total production at each time point in the single-well production profile and the number of wells deployed in each month and the monthly production of the corresponding typical well is determined. The calculation program is then used to automatically calculate the total production at each time point of the overall gas field production profile.
It has improved the accuracy and efficiency of gas field planning and production forecasting, simplified redundant calculations, provided accurate decision-making basis, reduced ineffective drilling and development costs, and improved economic benefits.
