Amethyste Guided Session #1
A01 • Initialization
This document is an introduction to Amethyste and illustrates the principles of Well
Performance Analysis (WPA).
We will carry out a Vertical Lift Performance (VLP) and an Inflow Performance (IPR) on a
producing oil well. We will also illustrate how the improvement of the well performance can be
investigated by conducting a sensitivity analysis.
Note: Unless you work in high resolution, it is preferable to uncheck the ‘Always show scale’
option in Settings – Plot Aspect - Plots tab.
