A specific study in Petroleum Production with a focus on finding the bottlenecks (restrictions) of the current production by tracking the whole fluid path from hydrocarbon deposit all the way to the Commercial Metering Station.
The typical Nodal Analysis workflow is given as:
| Reserves Structure | Production Chain | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Reserves Distribution | Reserves Dynamics | Well-reservoir contact | Surface Production Performance | ||||
| Reservoir Distribution | Fluid Saturation | Reservoir Pressure | Fluid mobility | Reserves Velocity | |||
