Typical production profiles using a decline curve are then used with IPR equations to predict IPR expressions with time into the future. Then using application rules such as limiting depths and rates, gas separator feasibility for pumps and flowing well and gaslift calculations from Nodal programs, Artificial Lift possibilities are mapped out into the future. The techniques are not limited to the production profiles used as an example.
