The Well Allocation Metering System is a software solution for hydrocarbon production allocation, giving accurate and fair allocation of oil and gas production across complex fields with commingled production from multiple reservoirs. It uses continuous direct measurement with live dynamic gas-lift mixing and well composition feeding all PVT calculations. Well test functionality, live validation against references, reports and trend-based HMI validation help manage uncertainty, while well deduction testing or a calibration optimizer shortens well testing time. Calsep PVTsim Nova EoS files integrate directly for PVT consistency across disciplines.
