Well operation conditions which specify the flowrate of fluid transportation up or down the wellbore

It is defined by the Lift Mechanism and its settings.

There are two major types of Well Control:

Pressure ControlLiquid control


There are specifics of Well Control in Reservoir Flow Modeling including additional features which are not related to the physical Lift Mechanisms (see Well Control (Reservoir Flow Modelling)).
