  • System and method for optimizing production in an artificially lifted well
    Patent number: 7114557
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for optimizing production from a well. A plurality of sensors are positioned to sense a variety of production related parameters. The sensed parameters are applied to a wellbore model and validated.
