Testing augmenation scheme by stipulating multi-phase flow meter (MFPM) engineering enhancement methodology “tassmeem”

A system comprising:

• a well in a production system comprising a multi-phase flow meter (MPFM) configured to measure operating data of the well;
• a testing augmentation and engineering enhancement manager comprising a computer processor and coupled to the well, wherein the testing augmentation and engineering enhancement manager is configured to:
• obtain, by a computer processor, the operating data, input diagnostic parameter data, and calibration data regarding the production system, wherein operating data comprises current flowrate measurement data and historical flowrate measurement data of a multiphase fluid in a pipeline in the production system, wherein the input diagnostic parameter data comprises gamma ray count data, input voltage data, and radio-active source (RAS) data from the MPFM;
• determine, by the computer processor and based on the input diagnostic parameter data, a verification assessment using a first machine-learning model trained to output a functional status for the MPFM, wherein the verification assessment comprises a status report identifying whether the MPFM requires a first recommended action;
• determine, by the computer processor and based on the operating data, a validation assessment by comparing the current flowrate measurement data and the historical flowrate measurement data, wherein the validation assessment identifies whether the current flowrate measurement data satisfies a validity criterion for the MPFM;
• in response to the current flowrate measurement data failing to satisfy the validity criterion;
• determine a virtual flow meter (VFM) measurement using a second machine-learning model based on the operating data, wherein the second-machine learning model is trained on field device measurements from the production system;
• and
• substitute the VFM measurement for the current flowrate measurement data as an output of the production system;
• determine, by the computer processor and based on the calibration data, a calibration assessment comprising a health report identifying whether the MPFM requires a second recommended action, wherein determining the calibration assessment comprises performing a calibration test by comparing a current gamma ray count rate of the MPFM to an expected gamma ray count rate based on a radioactive source decay record;
• transmit, by the computer processor in response to the validation assessment, the VFM measurement, the verification assessment, and the calibration assessment, an alarm that displays an action point for the MPFM, wherein the action point comprises a procedure that adjusts or replaces the MPFM.
