Abstract Virtual Flow Metering (VFM) is an increasingly attractive method for estimation of
multiphase flowrates in oil and gas production systems. Instead of using expensive …

Oil and gas metering is primarily used as the basis for evaluating the economic viability of oil
wells. Owing to the economic implications of oil and gas metering, the subject of oil and gas …

In the process of shale gas production, it is of great significance to select an appropriate
mathematical method to accurately predict the gas flow rate of wellhead choke for the …

The condensation of natural gas in the throttle valve may affect and even damage the
downstream equipment, which threatens the safety and efficiency of the natural gas …

One of the main components in oil and gas production system is choke valve. The choke
valve role is maintaining sufficient back pressure to prevent water gas coning and formation …

A virtual flow meter (VFM) enables continuous prediction of flow rates in petroleum
production systems. The predicted flow rates may aid the daily control and optimization of a …

Commercialization of the steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) process has made
recovery of heavy oil/bitumen possible in a number of reservoirs hindered by hydrocarbon …

Multiphase flow metering in oil and gas production wells is essential for monitoring the
production performance from oil and gas reservoirs. Accurate measurements of multiphase …

Accurate understanding of the physics of the wellbore and knowledge of production rates
are essential as they serve as a key input to modelling and therefore affect results and the …

The coupled simulations of dynamic interactions between the well, hydraulic fractures and
reservoir have significant importance in some areas of petroleum reservoir engineering …
