Artificial lift
This paper proposes a novel, real-time pump failure prediction method using machine learning with scaled load ratio to accurately predict pump failures using only surface pump load data.
Production delivered by the subsea artificial lift system will equal that obtained by drilling two new wells, according to BP.
