7.2 Reporting Entity Kinds
Topic Version | 1 | Published | 12/09/2016 | |
For Standard | PRODML v2.0 |
The behavior of reporting entities according to kind is not enforced; for example, there is nothing in the schema to restrict well tests to being associated only to reporting entities whose kind is “well”.
The Category column in this table is not a schema feature; it is provided here for information and guidance only. Three categories are used for the reporting entity kinds: Asset, Geographic, and Organizational.
Kind |
Description |
Category |
---|---|---|
platform |
A single platform. |
Asset |
tank |
A single tank. |
Asset |
terminal |
A physical object that is an industrial facility for the storage of oil and/or petrochemical products and from which these products are usually transported to end users or further storage facilities. |
Asset |
well |
A single well, possibly with many wellbores (side tracks). Optionally, it can reference a WITSML well object. |
Asset |
wellbore |
A single wellbore (side track) within a well. Optionally, it can reference a WITSML wellbore object. |
Asset |
Contact Interval |
Represents the details of a single physical connection between well and reservoir, e.g., the perforation details, depth, and reservoir connected. Meaning: this is the physical nature of a connection from reservoir to wellbore. Optionally, it can reference a WITSML ContactInterval class within the wellboreCompletion object. |
Asset |
Wellbore Completion |
Each wellbore completion represents a flowing connection between wellbore and reservoir. It contains contact Intervals, which reference the physical aspects of these connections detailed in downholeComponents. Optionally, it can reference a WITSML wellboreCompletion object. |
Asset |
Well Completion |
The well completion data object represents a “flow” or “stream” from the well (e.g., from a wellhead port) that is associated with a set of wellbore completions. When there is more than one such wellbore completion, the flows from them commingle in the well (the wellbore completions may be located in multiple wellbores). The well completion represents this commingled flow. Optionally, it can reference a WITSML wellCompletion object. |
Asset |
flow meter |
A single flow meter. |
Asset |
pipeline |
A fluid conductor that consists of pipe, possibly also including pumps, valves, and control devices, intended for conveying liquids, gases, or finely divided solids. |
Asset |
gas plant |
A facility that processes natural gas to achieve the recovery of natural gas liquids and/or removal of contaminants. |
Asset |
facility |
A generic label for a facility that is not described by the other physical reporting entity kinds. |
Asset |
production processing facility |
A single production processing facility. |
Asset |
FPSO |
Floating production, storage and offloading facility. |
Asset |
oil tanker |
An oil tanker, a vessel that could be a barge, or a sea-going ship. |
Asset |
tanker truck |
A truck which carries oil. |
Asset |
country |
A single country. |
Geog |
county |
A single county. |
Geog |
field |
A single field. |
Geog |
formation |
A bed or deposit composed throughout of substantially the same kind of rock. |
Geog |
rock-fluid unit feature |
A fluid phase plus one or more stratigraphic units. A unit may correspond to a pair of horizons that are not adjacent stratigraphically, e.g., a coarse zonation, and is often used to define the reservoir. Available to match reported production to the rock-fluid feature in RESQML. Optionally, it can reference a RESQML rock-fluid unit feature object. |
Geog |
state |
A single state or province. |
Geog |
field - part |
An area or zone that forms part of a field. |
Geog |
reservoir |
A single reservoir. |
Geog |
company |
A company name that is the name of the operator company. |
Org |
lease |
A single lease. |
Org |
license |
A regulatory agreement that gives the licensees exclusive rights to investigate, explore, and recover petroleum deposits within the geographical area and time period stated in the agreement. |
Org |
commercial entity |
An organizational construct through which a group of organizations or facilities are aggregated as if it were a single organization. |
Org |
Part III: Fluid and PVT Analysis
File code = “PRO-PVT”
Part III contains Chapters 8 Introduction to Fluid and PVT Analysis Data Objects through 12 Appendix for Fluid and PVT Analysis , which explain the set of PRODML data objects for fluid and PVT analysis.
