Annotation:

To evaluate the parameters of the oil collection and transportation system, it is sufficient to use a simplified integrated model in the "collection system – source" configuration with predicted production levels by wells. To increase the efficiency of the integrated model, an automation instrument has been developed that allows performing quick calculations without loss of quality with a significant reduction of labor costs. The functionality of the developed instrument allows performing multivariate calculations, analyzing hydraulic parameters and fluid properties at any point of the system. Using the developed tool, it is possible to build additional system elements as well as schedule any time step within the calculation duration. Additionally, the instrument was tested at two fields (X and Y) in the N region.

The test results proved high convergence when compared with calculations based on other model configurations. The developed instrument will be used in the activities of specialists to evaluate the parameters of the oil collection and transportation system for future projects.
