XSPOC ESP Analysis Input Guide

You are here:
< Back

Enable Analysis on the Config Screen Analysis Options or manually in tblWellAnalysisConfiguration. Set to 1 for ESP or 2 for Gas Lift

Enable ESP Analysis

 

Select a controller and make sure the Application for that controller is ESP Artificial Lift

Enter your well design. Only the pumps and number of stages are needed for analysis.

Enter downhole equipment.

  

You can enter your perforation data but for analysis we only need the mid-perf depth so you can also choose to just enter that, as shown.

Measurement Data

XSPOC analyzes well tests. For the measurements shown below, it will look for data that occurred during the period of time prior to the well test date that matches the well test duration. If it doesn’t find any it will select the most recent data point that is still prior to the well test date.

For example, for a well test on 10/17/2018 with the default duration of 24 hours, XSPOC will look for data dated from 10/16/2018 00:00:00 to 10/16/2018 23:59:59 ( just before midnight ). If there are multiple values, they will be averaged. If there were no values at all, the most recent value prior to that time range will be taken.

XSPOC prefers scan values but for data with static data points, like Oil API, you can enter one manual value, dated prior to your well tests, and XSPOC will choose that value over and over for new well tests, until a newer value is given.

Enter IPR data. You do not need to enter data for every new well test, but you need to provide at least one full set of IPR data ( SBHP, FBHP, Bubblepoint Pressure, Production Rate ) and save it. XSPOC will then propagate your settings to subsequent well tests.

The common configuration is shown: Water Cut and Gross Rate set to From Well Test, FBHP set to be calculated. You can also choose a manual input for FBHP or any other value, and XSPOC will propagate that value to generate IPR data for subsequent well tests.
