Digital Oil Field
This research focuses on combining physics-based expert rules with machine learning to improve the detection of failure-related events in electrical submersible pumps.
A combination of physics principles and machine-learning techniques is used in this work to develop a virtual flowmeter for oil-production optimization in electrical-submersible-pump-lifted oil wells, resulting in reliable generalization.
This paper presents the deployment of an artificial intelligence-enabled autonomous gas lift optimization system, integrating real-time centralized advanced process control with cloud-based analytics to enhance artificial gas lift performance in producer wells.

We must admit that the oil field is still in the early days of its digital journey. It’s time to give serious thought to the expectation/reality gap, the cultural differences between the way we’ve always done things and the way that digital is changing us, and the pain points that may trip us up unless we’re careful.
