Typical Applications for DynaLift™ Software
Design Verification and Refinement
After initial design work in WellFlo™ software, the well model can be exported to DynaLift software and the unloading process simulated to verify that the design will operate successfully. Changes to reservoir conditions can be simulated to ensure that the completion will still function correctly as water cut changes or reservoir pressure falls.
Diagnosis

Many problems with gas lifted wells are associated with heading or multi-pointing. For the first time a tool is available to diagnose and predict these conditions. Proposed workover solutions can then be developed and tested to ensure that the problem is rectified and the correct valves are chosen.
Operations
DynaLift software will predict the timing, volumes, temperatures, and types of fluid reaching the surface throughout the gas lift process. This provides an important guide to operations personnel working on gas lifted installations.
