Multiphase Well Testing and Monitoring

Multiphase Well Testing and Monitoring

Our multiphase flowmeter (MPFM) products—all incorporating Vx technology—provide a quicker, more efficient way to test wells. MPFM products provide critical well diagnostic information without complex, conventional testing operations. When used as a permanent monitor of three-phase flow, multiphase meters detect water breakthrough earlier, even in remote locations, reducing field development costs.
Increase your success
Multiphase testing is the continuous rate measurement of a well's individual phases without separation. Use it to improve test data quality and availability. Get quick well performance trend analyses and immediate well diagnostics. Reduce costs per well tested. Realize significant on-site cost savings. Link...........

Early Production Facilities


Early Production Facilities
Early production and extended well test facilities and plants
With rising oil prices, oil companies have a strong incentive to begin production early while full field development is being planned and permanent facilities are being built. Early-production facilities (EPFs) can help operators bring their new discoveries on stream fast. Schlumberger has designed and installed modular, fit-for-purpose EPFs worldwide for more than 30 years and to date has completed approximately 70 projects.

EPFs and fast-track schedules can help operators create an early cash flow with only a minimum cash outlay. They also provide real-time production data that can help operators appraise reservoir performance before they install more-expensive long-term facilities. EPFs can be used for small reserves that would be financially risky or uneconomical to produce with a permanent production facility. Link........
