When we decided to become electronics engineers, we were introduced to Ohm's Law and to two enshrined methods of analyzing circuits. These were called “loop analysis” and “node analysis.” We were told ...

Nodal analysis views the total producing system as a group of components potentially encompassing reservoir rock/irregularities, completions (gravel pack, open/closed perforations, open hole), ...

When we need to analyze a moderately complex circuit and we are thrown back onto our own resources because we don’t have access to SPICE or some other software aid, an issue arises that might be ...

Based on a presentation to the 57th Southwestern Petroleum Short Course, Lubbock, Tex., Apr. 26-29, 2010. As shown with a nodal analysis, the use of wellhead chokes on electrical submersible-pumped ...
