Abstract
In view of the existing situation of gas field development, one kind of method to evaluate the production performance of gas production units (GPUs) was presented in this paper. Among the commonly used indicators of gas field development, we select 11 indicators from the three aspects of production task, gas reservoir management, and production technology. According to the principle of analytic network process (ANP), this paper introduced one kind of new method to get the weights of indicators. By means of the method of TOPSIS, it is easy to obtain the rankings for all the GPUs through calculating the weighted Euclidean distance between each GPU and the positive or negative ideal point. This evaluation method could constantly improve the management level of gas production units and deepen the delicacy management of gas field development.
Highlights
The oil and gas field companies mostly take the management concept of “Benchmarking” during the process of gas field development [1]
The development department in the process of gas field development evaluates the production performance of gas production units (GPUs) based on their own statistics data and the assessment results calculated by themselves [3]
We introduce the method of TOPSIS to decide the comprehensive ranking of GPUs and use the Euclidean distance to describe the proximity between two GPUs
Summary
The oil and gas field companies mostly take the management concept of “Benchmarking” during the process of gas field development [1]. The gas production units (GPUs) must achieve the production goals in accordance with the development requirements [2]. The development department in the process of gas field development evaluates the production performance of GPUs based on their own statistics data and the assessment results calculated by themselves [3]. It means that the evaluation accuracy is not high enough and the crosswise contrast is not enough. In order to reasonably decide the weight of each indicator, this method of ANP is introduced.
