Artificial lift
This paper presents a case study highlighting the demonstration, refinement, and implementation of a machine-learning algorithm to optimize multiple electrical-submersible-pump wells in the Permian Basin.
This paper presents a closed-loop iterative well-by-well gas lift optimization workflow deployed to more than 1,300 operator wells in the Permian Basin.
This paper explores the use of machine learning in predicting pump statuses, offering probabilistic assessments for each dynacard, automating real-time analysis, and facilitating early detection of pump damage.

What is the one thing you can do that will provide the greatest benefit to your artificial lift operations? For me, the answer to that question is simple: focus on surveillance. Surveillance is the foundation of any artificial lift optimization program. Effective surveillance practices allow you to keep track of how your system is performing against predefined targets…

Do you know how many of your organization’s wells are artificially lifted? Or, more importantly, do you know what fraction of your production volumes are dependent on artificial lift? I would wager that the percentages are higher than you would expect, and I encourage you to seek out that information and share it.
