Objective:

This course is intended for well analysts, artificial lift analysts, production engineers and other technical personnel who are involved in optimization of electric submersible pumping systems using LOWISsoftware. The course aims to provide a practical understanding of capabilities created by LOWIS software in managing ESP well performance. The course takes 3½ days.

Course Description:

The course covers practical aspects of automation concepts as applied to ESP systems. Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

  1. Understand basic concepts of automation and how it is used in an oil field
  2. Explain basic components of an ESP system
  3. Explain underlying theory behind well performance applicable to ESP wells
  4. Understand surveillance and optimization concepts applicable to ESP systems
  5. Explain the importance of well tests and how to use them to diagnose problems with ESP wells
  6. Use LOWIS software to
    • Configure an ESP well for data capture from an automation system
    • Monitor well performance
    • Analyze ESP well performance using real time measurements
    • Validate a well test based on results of analysis

Course Contents:

  1. Automation Basics: Terminology, Devices Used, Field Sensing Devices
  2. Basic Components of an ESP Well
  3. Inflow and Outflow Performance as Applicable to ESP Wells
  4. LOWIS Software Introduction
