ALGORITHM OF THE MODEL
Then, using the summary above, the gas allocation
method for 3 wells to be conducted in a similar way Let us say that there are n wells in the field with total
as the following: Simplify the 3 wells problem into a gas injection rate, , using Eq. (10) optimum gas lift
2 wells problem - 1 well is 3rd well and another is the allocation for well, , as function of gas
result from previous calculation of 2 wells gas lift injection rate for n wells, can be obtained. Then
using Eq. (11) obtaining the rest rate of gas supply to production will not be used as it is not efficient

obtaining optimum gas lift allocation for ( 1) The result of the Ricky model is shown in the table

allocations for all wells are obtained. Thus, all From the table 2, with total gas injection rate 4
allocations should satisfy the equation . MMSCFD and certain GLPC of each well as shown
in the figure 4, the author obtained optimum
allocation for each well which would produce
=1 = (12) maximum oil production rate of 10226.9 BOPD.
The algorithm of the Ricky model is shown . Sensitivity to Gas Injection Allocation
