Special Tests for Flowing Wells in Oil and Gas Production

Drilling and producing a well requires constant oil well testing of many different kinds.

The weight and quality of the oil has to be tested, as well as the amount of water and gas produced.

Some tests will reveal if there’s a leak or faulty equipment, others can help decide if a new well will be profitable and pay off.

Most major decisions regarding how a well is produced will start with one oil and gas well testing procedure or another.

Special Tests

There are a couple tests that are particular to flowing wells, where the pressure in the reservoir is great enough that no pump is needed to bring fluid to the surface.

The first gauges the pressure of the fluid in the well, and the other measures its temperature.

Both require equipment be run downhole.

 

Temperature Surveys

Temperature surveys are useful for a number of reasons.

The temperature of the fluid downhole is going to be determined by the temperature of the surrounding earth; oil at the bottom of the well is generally warmer than that at the top.

As it cools on the way up, heavier elements of the oil and paraffin can fall out and accumulate on the tubing.

Additionally, temperature surveys can be used to find casing leaks.

Gas escaping through the leak will expand, and therefore cool rapidly.

The temperature change will show up clearly on the survey.

The temperature recording instrument is lowered on a solid metal wire, mounted on a short lubricator (somewhat similar to a swabbing lubricator).

There will usually be instructions for the instrument that should be followed closely; in general, it should be stopped regularly so that you’re getting clear readings over the depth of the well.

 

Pressure Surveys

Pressure surveys are extremely useful for a number of reasons, particularly for naturally flowing wells.

Tracking pressures changes over time can allow a pumper to estimate the production life of a particular well, for example.

As a note, it’s important to remember that air pressure depends largely on the altitude above or below sea level.

As with temperature surveys, the pressure gauging instrument must be stopped regularly to get clear readings.

The local altitude and air pressure may have an effect on how often and where the instrument is stopped to take readings.

Special Tests

Tracking pressure is a key part of monitoring a well’s activity, so pressure surveys should be run at least every 6 to 12 months and noted on your wells test sheet or GreaseBook app.

The well should be shut in prior to the test, to allow the well to build to its maximum pressure.

The pumper may not be the one to run this test, but still should most likely be present to bring the well back into production after the survey has been completed.

Other Downhole Tests

While just about every well will have a temperature and pressure survey run on a regular basis, there are some other surveys that are run downhole that are less common, or are only needed in some specific circumstances.

 

Caliper Survey

This is a test that will need to be run more regularly for wells that are prone to corrosion damage.

The caliper is an instrument with steel fingers that are spring loaded so that they press outward against the inside of the casing.

The caliper is lowered to the bottom of the casing and then dragged up with the fingers running along the inside.

The fingers draw lines on a chart, and when one encounters a pitted spot or some rust, the finger will jump or dip in response.

It’s fairly easy to see where damage is occurring in the tubing, and how much, using a caliper survey.

 

Scrapers

In some cases, it may be necessary to run a scraper up the inside of the tubing before a measuring instrument is lowered.

This is done when a well produces a lot of paraffin, asphalt, and heavy weight oils that can collect on the inside of the tubing.

That sort of accumulation can make running instruments downhole risky, as the expensive instrument might get stuck down the well.

To prevent that, a scraper is run inside the casing to scrap out most of the stuff that might pose a problem.

How CAN we guarantee you a 6% lift in profit margin in 6 weeks*?

*PLEASE NOTE: 6% is the AVERAGE result of producers who implement the app into their operations..... which means a full HALF of our clients do better 🤑

Start

Send us your Well and Pumper info 📑

Your team sits back while our Petroleum Engineers turn key your build out, setting up all production facilities to precisely mirror what you’ve got going on in the field.

Day 1

Roll out Pumpers 👨🏻‍🦰👴🏻👨🏻👨🏾‍🦱👴🏽🧔🏼‍♂️📲

We train, instruct and hand hold your pumpers every step of the way. Typical time for a pumper to learn the app? 8 minutes.

Week 1

Immediate Results 🎯

  • Your production data in On Time: Because your pumper can enter production on ANY device (Android, Apple, tablet, PC, Mac, Desktop or Laptop) AND the app works offline, you’ve eliminated ANY excuse for you NOT to have your data. PS for better or worse, NOBODY leaves their home without their phone 😉
  • Your production data is Quality Controlled: Because the app checks your pumpers’ work, all your production data should now be QC’d.

Week 6

6% Lift in your Net Profit Margins Achieved or You Don’t Pay 💯💰📈

  • Your production data is in a Centralized Place: Because you have a simple system and everyone in the field knows how to work it, no one on the team ever has to wonder what’s really going on in the field.
  • The pulse and overall health of your company’s production is now known at all times
  • The status of any asset or pumper can be reviewed from any device
    • Because of this, you have now progressed to the point where you may want to set up Alerts around your production. To get you started (and get your creative juices flowing), we’ll implement two alerts on your behalf:
      • Comments
        • Get notified anytime a pumper leaves a comment without having to dig for it.
      • 7/14/30 Day Running Average
        • Get treatment to a well as soon as it shows signs of falling off.
    • However, the number and type of Alerts you can set up around your production are endless. A few common examples we see as having the biggest impact to your operations are:
  • Reduced Downtime
        • A well never sits idle for longer than it has to due to a pumper not calling it in.
  • Account for Every Drop of Oil
        • Each transfer of crude is meticulously tracked and every drop accounted for. No more skimming vacuum truck operators or purchasers pulling that extra inch of ‘velvet’ from your oil hauls.
  • Cap Ceiling Pressures on Injection and SWD wells
      • Injection wells are rated for certain pressures and blow outs are expensive. Get notified anytime an injector creeps above its maximum allowable pressure.
    • How many days since a Pumper last checked in? 👀
      • Do we trust our pumpers? Yes! Do we also want to verify they’re doing what they’re supposed to do? Oh yes!! Anytime a pumper goes AWOL for more than X days (doesn’t show up on site, doesn’t submit data) you know about it.

The bad news is you still have to work. The good news is you now have the power to put full oversight of both your pumpers and your production on automatic enabling you to focus on the activities in your company that will move the needle such as acquiring more wells, drilling and re-completions, or simply taking more time off 🏝️

The System

Why Greasebook Works

The secret is simple—Pumper Engagement. Instead your pumpers flying blind, relying solely on ‘feel’, or simply being left to their own devices, Greasebook’s Pumper Engagement System™ equips each member of your team with the information they need to maximize performance and minimize inefficiencies through a dead-simple app.

In fact, most producers start achieving results in as little as one week. Here’s how:


💪 Supercharge Your Veteran Pumpers

When you equip your more experienced team members with The Pumper Engagement System™, they gain access to visual production graphs, notes, well tests, well history files, and production alerts via a simple app on their smartphone or laptop, all without needing internet connectivity.

Unlike other production software that serves only as a ‘data capture’ tool and retains just 1-2 months of data, Greasebook is the ONLY software on the market to deliver all crucial data since the beginning of the well’s life in an easy-to-consume manner where he needs it most: onsite, in the field.

The Pumper Engagement System™ enables veteran pumpers to make data-supported decisions, maximizing well performance with their expert judgment.


📈 Level-Up Your (Green) Gaugers

Streamline your entire team’s communication and get everyone on the same page. Get management and knowledgeable team members the right information and the platform to provide feedback, quickly turning less experienced gaugers into valuable, long-term contributors.

By having access to all production information in an easy-to-consume manner, less experienced gaugers begin to understand the cause and effect different production variables have on each other and how their actions affect this.


👀 Get a Better Handle on Your Contract Pumpers

Contract pumpers aim to maximize their routes with as many wells as possible, which can conflict with your goal of giving each asset the attention it deserves. The Pumper Engagement Systems’s geo-fencing tool records every time someone from your team steps foot on the lease, reducing the total number of ‘skipped visits’ each month. 🤫 Plus, because the app works offline and everyone always has their phone, you eliminate any excuse for not submitting those mission-critical updates.

The result? Less oversight, less downtime, fewer excuses, fewer headaches, more production, more profit, and more enjoyment by freeing you up to focus on what you do best.

Too Good to Be True? 🤨

SEE WHAT OTHER OIL & GAS PRODUCERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE GREASEBOOK 👀👇

Ask us anything

F.A.Q.

Not really. Simply share with us your Excel reports, paper gauge sheets, or the login to your existing legacy production software and we’ll take care of the rest. Our petroleum engineers turn-key your entire setup, we’ll reach out once we’re done. Bada bing.

You’re right. And, because no one leaves their house without their phone (and because our app works offline), we eliminate any excuse for your pumpers NOT to send you their data. See, we told you this would be easy.

In addition to both Android and Apple smartphones, the Greasebook also works on any tablet, laptop, or desktop.

While Greasebook has been implemented in many of the country’s largest publicly traded production companies operating thousands of wells, Greasebook is focused on serving the small and mid-sized independent US-based oil & gas operators.

Anywhere, anytime, on any device (phone, tablet, desktop or laptop).

The beauty of the app is once your pumpers start submitting their production via the Greasebook – anyone on your team can access production reports, graphs and well files from any device at any time.

It’s sorta like a centralized place from which everyone on your team can work, without all the calls, text messages and emails that would go on otherwise.

Absolutely. As your pumpers continue to add tickets, comments, pressures, well tests and any other relevant information, your investors will have guest access to as much (or as little) information as you’d like.

Of course, they’ll only see production info for the wells in which they participate.

Oil & gas companies who run Legacy oil and gas software systems expose themselves to major risks (and minor annoyances…)

The complexity of traditional oil & gas production systems is twofold:

  1. Software Problem: Legacy software systems are expensive, outdated, clunky and have extremely complex interfaces. In fact, because of all the support and manual interventions required, continuing to use outdated software can often be more costly than simply upgrading.
  2. People Problem: Legacy software systems take an enormous amount of time to familiarize oneself with. And, anytime an employee quits, retires, or is let go the amount of training required for new employees can be significantly higher than for newer, more user-friendly software.

 

This is a lose/lose. What’s more, given all the set-up fees, training fees, support fees and the like the projected ‘savings’ never materialize and now your forced to contend with fluctuating hydrocarbon prices AND a bloated monthly OPEX.

Talk about getting stuck in the muck!

With Greasebook, office users are 99% proficient with the platform in about 20 minutes.

Within 2 seconds – FROM YOUR SMARTPHONE – you’ll have your answer to any question regarding production, allocations, performance, well history files, commentary, run ticket reconciliation, Custom Reports, State reports, and more – all sliced and diced and customized at the Company, Operator, Battery, Well, State, County, Section, Township, Range, Acquisition, or even Supervisor level…

We’ve been at this for awhile. Greasebook was established in 2012 and now supports more than 400+ oil and gas operators (small ma & pops and publicly traded companies alike) across 20 States.

Today, Greasebook is now the fastest growing production software in the patch.👏

The Greasebook corporate outpost is proudly located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 🤠📍

The Greasebook helpdesk is staffed by Petroleum Engineers, Geologists, and Completions Experts Monday through Friday, 8AM to 5PM CST. 

We have a real-time chat through which most questions are answered in 2 minutes or less.

Naturally, some questions are more complex and you’ll want to speak to someone over the phone. In this case, we aim to complete all callbacks within two hours of scheduling.👌

Of course, your Dashboard and Reports are available to you 24/7.

We don’t blame them.

Pumpers have been burned by Legacy Production Systems in the past. 😵

However, given how much upside you stand to gain in the form of time savings and profit, DON’T let the tail wag the dog, folks!! 💸

Real talk: the average pumper takes about 8 minutes to learn Greasebook (and that goes for guys in their 80s still tending wells…)

Give us two days and we’ll make believers out of your entire pumping crew….

Still not convinced? Check out Greasebook’s “Pumper Wall of Love” by clicking here and let the pumpers tell you themselves 😘

Let us help you help yourself. Simply send us your existing production info, and we’ll assign one of our Petroleum Engineers to turn-key your entire setup for you.

We’ll build your wells, your tank straps, your users and anything else you require.

Finally, once everything has been reviewed by your team, we’ll roll out your pumpers and either train them for you or with you – whichever you prefer.

That’s not a question, but actually no.

The average pumper demands anywhere from $125 to $400 per month.

And depending on what you require, Greasebook is priced anywhere from $5-15 well/mo.

So, given how much more you’ll get out of your pumpers, how much we’ll streamline your operations, and how quickly we’ll get this all done for you, we’re actually kind of a bargain.

Our guarantee is two-pronged…

First, run the app for full 6 weeks in your operations. If you’re not completely satisfied YOU DON’T PAY.

Second, if for any reason you’d like your money back in first 30 days after paying simply let us know and it’s yours. 🤝

However, if you’re anything like our other 400+ operators you’ll be wondering why you didn’t do this 6 months ago…

We’re ready when you are. Take the quiz and schedule a call here – depending how many operators we have in front of you, there’s a chance we can get you up and running by the end of next week.
