Laboratory testing-based valve prognostics

The claimed method and system develops a useful lifetime profile for a component of a process control device, such as a valve, and uses that lifetime profile to determine a projected remaining lifetime for the device component in operation. The lifetime profile is developed from using real world operational data of similar process control devices, used under substantially the same operating conditions as to be experienced during operation. Profiles may be developed for numerous device components, from which a projected lifetime profile for the entire process control device is developed. Based on the projected remaining lifetime, notification warnings may be sent to remote computers and maintenance scheduling may be automatically achieved.

Laboratory Testing Procedure to Select Acid or Proppant Fracturing Stimulation Treatment for a Given Carbonate Formation

Embodiments of the present invention enables users to determine the efficiency of acid fracturing in stimulating a formation. The testing procedures of embodiments of the present invention examine the elastic, plastic, and creeping effects on closing an acidized fracture during the life span of an oil / gas well. If it is determined that an acidized fracture will be closed for a given stress and temperature, then proppant fracturing should be used; otherwise, acid fracturing is the stimulation treatment to consider. The testing results also provide an estimation of the lifetime of an acid fracture for a given set of in-situ conditions of stress and temperature. If the lifetime is determined to be too short to make the fracturing treatment economically feasible, a different stimulation method should be considered, such as proppant fracturing or matrix acidizing.
