Abstract
Systems and methods for optimization of real time production operations. In one embodiment, a moving time horizon based parametric model provides fast predictions for production optimization in a short-term framework. In another embodiment, multiple technologies are selected in connection with asset performance workflows that are uniquely implemented in a multi-phase approach.
Claims50
A computer implemented method for optimization of real time production operations, comprising:
- selecting an input and an output for a short-term parametric model using real time field measurements from an injection source and from a production source;
- processing the field measurements by removing at least one of an outlier, a non-zero means and a non-stationery trend;
- selecting an identification parameter for the short-term parametric model;
- and
- identifying the short-term parametric model using the field measurements and the identification parameter.
A program carrier device having computer executable instructions for optimization of real time production operations, the instructions being executable to implement:
- selecting an input and an output for a short-term parametric model using real time field measurements from an injection source and from a production source;
- processing the field measurements by removing at least one of an outlier, a non-zero means and a non-stationery trend;
- selecting an identification parameter for the short-term parametric model;
- and
- identifying the short-term parametric model using the field measurements and the identification parameter.

- and
- implementing a second group of the selected technologies in a second asset performance workflow after implementing the first group of the selected technologies, the second group comprising primarily the automation technology.
