Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to attenuating the effects of slugging based on one or more measurements of parameters from one or more locations in one or more wells. In some cases, a controller may be configured to attenuate the effects of slugging based on the one or more parameters, for example, by controlling a choke or an artificial lift. In certain aspects, the one or more locations may include downhole or at the surface of the one or more wells.

Abstract: Techniques and apparatus are provided for downhole monitoring of an artificial lift system, such as a reciprocating rod lift system, in an effort to enhance production from the system. In aspects, a method for controlling a rod pump used to produce fluids from a wellbore is provided. The method generally includes monitoring one or more downhole parameters in the wellbore and adjusting one or more pump parameters used to control the rod pump based, at least in part, on the monitored downhole parameters.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for calculating production of each of a plurality of fractured intervals (or fractures) and monitoring changes in the fracture contribution with time. Such real-time monitoring and analysis may be performed by combining temperature distribution (and pressure) measurements, a real-time surface multiphase flow measurement, and an inflow model for each fractured interval (or fracture). In this manner, the industry may be able to understand the behavior of fractures and, in turn, optimize the number of stages (i.e., fractured intervals), the number of fractures, and the spacing between fractures and stages.
