Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for real-time flare network monitoring. Real-time flaring volume data is received from relief devices connected to a flare network. The real-time flaring volume data is analyzed in conjunction with heat and material balance information of the relief devices. A comprehensive molar balance is performed based on the analyzing, the balancing including losses/feed percentages for each component of the flare network including the relief devices throughout the flare network. Flaring data for the components is aggregated for each flare header. Real-time flare network monitoring information, including instantaneous component-wise flaring for each flare header in the flare network is provided for display to a user in a user interface.

Systems and methods include a method for using a downhole logging tool. A downhole logging tool is inserted into a well. The downhole logging tool includes a gauge chamber containing gauges, a compressed gas chamber containing compressed gas, a timer powered a battery, a release sub, and a balloon housing containing a balloon in a deflated state. Data is collected by the gauges of the downhole logging tool during a downward travel of the downhole logging tool. A release point to release compressed gas is determined by the timer based on a travelling speed of the downhole logging tool. The compressed gas is released by the release sub at the release point, inflating the balloon to an inflated state, and creating a buoyant force for the downhole logging tool. Additional data is collected by the gauges of the downhole logging tool during an upward travel of the downhole logging tool.

A method and assembly for calibrating downhole imaging tools includes a calibrator mechanism with a known electromagnetic response, whereby the calibrator mechanism is simultaneously engaged with a plurality of injector electrodes and the at least one return electrode carried on a pad of the downhole imaging tool. A current is injected into the calibrator mechanism by the injector electrodes and the response of the tool is measured. The calibrator mechanism if formed of a homogenous material or fluid so that the electromagnetic response is uniform throughout. The measured electromagnetic response can be compared to the known electromagnetic response and a calibration adjustment can be determined. The calibration adjustment can then be applied to future downhole measurements obtained during an imaging operation.

An apparatus includes a processor and a machine-readable medium having program code to cause the apparatus to obtain a first dictionary based on a first training set of signals and determine a first subset of the first training set of signals based on a training reconstruction accuracy threshold and the first dictionary, wherein each atom in the first dictionary includes at least one of a signal pattern and a function representing the signal pattern. The program code also includes code to generate a second dictionary based on a second training set of signals, wherein the second training set of signals includes the first subset of the first training set of signals.

Downhole telemetry systems and related methods adaptively compensate for channel non-linearity effects. To compensate for channel non-linearity, the optimum signal generation parameters are determined that produce the desired modulated pressure variation at the surface. The signal generation parameters are optimized to minimize the discrepancy between the surface detected pressure signal and the intended signal. The mud propagation channel is first estimated in light of the known modulation scheme under an ideal linear-time-invariant channel assumption. The estimated channel is used to synthesize the modulated pressure signal undergoing the mud propagation given the initial signal generation parameters. The method then varies the synthesized signal generation parameters to search for the optimal signal generation parameters. The optimal signal generation parameters are then sent over downlink channel to the downhole pulser, which is ultimately used to generate the pulse waveform.

A system and methods for quantitative hydraulic fracturing surveillance from fiber optic sensing using machine learning is described herein. An exemplary method provides capturing distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data, distributed temperature sensing (DTS) data, and microseismic data over monitored stages. Operation states and variables at a respective stage are predicted, based on, at least in part, the DAS data, DTS data, or microseismic data. At least one event associated with the predicted operation states and variables is localized at the respective stage.

A wellbore fluid inductance monitor is disclosed, which operates at an end of a tubular in a wellbore. The wellbore fluid inductance monitor comprises an inductor in an electrical circuit. A magnetically doped portion of wellbore fluid, which may be a hydraulic fluid or cement slurry, is introduced into the wellbore during a reverse cementing or other cementing operation. The magnetically doped portion of wellbore fluid contains a dopant that alters at least one of a magnetic permeability and conductivity. The wellbore fluid inductance monitor detects the proximity magnetically doped portion of wellbore fluid based on altered electrical characteristics of the inductor. Based on the detection, the wellbore fluid inductance monitor triggers a wellbore operation which is detectable at a cementing controller and the cementing operation can be stopped or otherwise completed based on the determination that the cement slurry has reached the end of the tubular.

Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for generating a detailed heterogeneities map of a main reservoir. Pressure data for multiple wells of a main reservoir is received during a simultaneous field shut-in of the multiple wells. A scaled rate of change of pressure for each well is determined using the pressure data for each well. Rates of change of pressure for the multiple wells are plotted using the scaled rates of change of pressure. Clusters of wells having rates of change of pressure within a threshold difference of other wells in a given cluster are determined based on the plotting. A detailed heterogeneities map of the main reservoir is generated based the clusters of wells. The heterogeneities map defines heterogeneous regions. Each region contains a set of wells assigned to the heterogeneous region based on the wells having similar rates of change of pressure.

Downhole equipment and surface equipment communicate wirelessly with each other. A signal wirelessly transmitted at a first frequency from a downhole controller disposed within a wellbore is received at a surface location. The received signal is demodulated to a demodulated digital value. The demodulated value is added to an end of a buffer string. The buffer string is processed to determine whether the buffer string contains a message that is valid. In response to determining that the buffer string contains the message that is valid, the message is decoded. A command signal is wirelessly transmitted at a second frequency different from the first frequency to the downhole controller to adjust a state of the downhole controller.

A well tool assembly can include a well barrier and a detachable sub connected to the well barrier. The detachable sub can include a sensor data receiver. A method of retrieving sensor data can include positioning a sensor on one side of a well barrier, connecting a detachable sub on an opposite side of the well barrier, the detachable sub including a sensor data receiver configured to receive sensor data from the sensor, and conveying the well barrier, the sensor and the detachable sub together into a well. A system can include a sensor, a detachable sub, and a well barrier positioned between the sensor and the detachable sub, the detachable sub including a sensor data receiver, a passage extending longitudinally through the detachable sub, and a closure that selectively opens and blocks the passage.
