Abstract: A technique facilitates smart alarming, event detection, and/or event mitigation. The smart alarming may be achieved by, for example, automating detection processes and using advanced signal processing techniques. In some applications, event detection is enhanced by combining different alarms to facilitate diagnosis of a condition, e.g. a pump condition. The occurrence of certain unwanted events can be mitigated by automatically adjusting operation of a well system according to suitable protocols for a given event.

Abstract: A technique facilitates testing and monitoring of a well. An artificial lift system is operated to produce a well fluid, and data is collected as the artificial lift system is operated at different flow rates. The data collected at the different, e.g. varying, flow rates is used in estimating flow performance and to enable continued monitoring of the well. In some applications, the data may be obtained by utilizing a virtual flow metering technique.

Abstract: A technique facilitates automatic commissioning operations on pumping systems, e.g. electric submersible pumping systems. The automatic commissioning technique employs closed-loop monitoring and control processes which may include monitoring of pump shaft direction and speed measurements. In many applications, the technique reduces the time and manual effort otherwise involved in commissioning pumping systems in well completions. Embodiments also may be employed in automated decision-making related to commissioning and in determining operational settings based on sensed environmental and/or well performance conditions.
