Monitor production trends without well testing

Continuously monitor downhole flow rate, fluid density, pressure, and temperature in real time with the FloWatcher system, which is designed to acquire data in land, offshore, and subsea wells.

Designed and qualified for permanent installation, the system eliminates the need for subsea and surface flowmeters. The continuous stream of real-time data enhances production planning and reporting accuracy.

Identify flow anomalies for early remediation

The data enable early identification of production and reservoir anomalies, such as water or gas breakthrough, helping to reduce the cost of remediation and optimize production planning and recovery. Two-phase total flow rate and gas or water cut can be determined. In addition, the data can be used for pressure transient analysis to estimate permeability, skin, and drainage area over the life of the well.

Applications of this versatile system include

  • production allocation
  • well productivity and trend analysis
  • interference testing
  • pressure transient analysis
  • monitoring of ESP efficiency.
