 Volume Categories and Volume Types

Definition

Volume types are defined for production, and are linked with volume categories. Volume types are used in PRA allocation processes.

Use

The following are the volume categories used in PRA:

Volume category

Volume category description

Actual (A)

Defines volume types that are calculated by the system. The alternative is manually-maintained volume types.

Fuel (F)

Defines product dispositions (volume types) that are considered fuel consumption volumes. These can be calculated by the system based on operating hours and consumption /firing rates of the device, or by providing the volumes.

Inventory (I)

Defines volume types that are considered product storage/inventory volumes. These VTs potentially represent both opening and closing inventory volumes. When recorded at a measurement point level, these VTs will be considered “closing” inventory.

Lease (L)

Defines dispositions (volume types) that are part of an exchange between well completions on the same lease. These will be calculated by the system when exchanges for gas lift, formation injection, etc. are required. In an exchange, PRA (Production) will create two transactions: the “exchange from” side is a “lease” VT category volume and the “exchange to” side is a “non-sales” VT category volume.

Non-sales (N)

Defines product dispositions (volume types) that are considered all product dispositions other than sales or fuel/lease use. This volume type (VT) is also used in exchanges between wells on the same lease on the “exchanged to” side.

Other (O)

Defines volume types that are considered non‑final product disposition volume types (plant total PVR is an example of “other”). This VT is NOT considered to be part of “calculated production, ” but its volume needs to be captured. This VT has little affect on PRA processing.

Production (P)

Defines volume types that are considered to be measurement of product production. These VTs are not part of “calculated production, ” but are used in the allocation process (as allocation basis) and for determination of meter differentials.

Receipts (R)

Defines volume types that are considered to have been received from an outside source - from another well on the same lease, from a well on another lease, from a plant, facility, or a third party. This VT does not include the portion of a product disposition produced by the well.

Sales (S)

Defines product dispositions (volume types) that are considered to have been sold. Note that calculated production is determined at a well level, based on the volume type categories:

CALCULATED PRODUCTION = Fuel + Inventory + Non Sales + Sales ‑ Lease ‑Receipts

The following volume types can be used in PRA:

Each volume type is associated with a specific volume category, which is listed as part of the volume type descriptions. The number ID before each volume type refers to the volume type code ID. “System-generated” refers to whether or not the volume type is generated as part of the system processing, or, if not, that it is manually entered (by a user).

00 - Directed Volume

VOLUME CATEGORY: Other PRA USES - Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: Yes Revenue: No

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: No Plants: Yes

01 - Measured Production

This is a measured volume that represents the amount of flow of product through a particular stream. This volume is usually a ‘real’ (as opposed to theoretical) measured volume that is associated with a meter. In PRA, this volume can be entered on allocation or deduct meter MP types. This volume type can also be used on an allocation or deduct meter, if the volume is to be calculated from stream downtime and well tests, if used in multiple stream allocations.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Sales PRA USES - Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: No Revenue: Yes (OA, VL, RD)

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Gas Plants: Yes

PRODUCTION: Volume used as the “metered” volume, if downstream from a well completion whose theoretical calculation method is “metered” volumes. Also used to control proration of volumes at the measurement point level.

02 ‑ Adjusted Plant Production

This is the volume that is calculated from metered plant inlet (83), less plant loss (48), vent/flared (45), plant fuel (24), unaccounted for in transportation (96), residue sold (57) and adjusted for meter differential (43). This volume type is used in plant allocations.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Production RA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: Yes Revenue: No

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Gas Plants: Yes

03 ‑ Sales 1

This is the volume that is considered sold to third parties and/or from leases to plants or to other leases.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Sales PRA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: No Revenue:

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: No (CA, VL, RD, JE):

Yes

PRODUCTION: Observed conditions MUST be recorded with the volume. Defaults are not used on VD screens. A transporter must be recorded with a sales volume. If there is one purchaser related to this particular sales point and transporter, then PRA production will also set the purchaser.

04 ‑ Closing Inventory‑Liquids

Stored liquid product volumes including plant products, oil, and condensate. This volume indicates the end of the month inventory.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Inventory PRA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: No Revenue: No

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Yes (1xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx)

PRODUCTION: Can be determined using gauge readings, meter readings, or by simply entering a “measured” volume on the measurement point volumes screen. It is normally recorded at either a tank measurement point or a tank battery measurement point. The tank battery CAN be used in the instance where there are multiple tanks and a single inventory volume is to be recorded. Closing inventory for one month (allocated to wells) is rolled forward as beginning inventory for the subsequent month (at the well level).

05 – Retrograde Sales  

VOLUME CATEGORY: Production

06 ‑ Stored Gas

Volume of gas stored.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Inventory PRA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: No Revenue: No

09 ‑ Lease Fuel ‑ Exchanged To

When a well completion uses more lease use volume than what it produced during a month, the first action in PRA is to transfer product from other well completions on the same lease to the extent that the other well completions have the product available. This volume type identifies the volume transferred to the well completions that is short from another/other well completions on the same lease to make up the shortage. See VT 19 for the receipt side.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Non‑sales PRA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: Yes Revenue: No

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Gas

PRODUCTION: Used in volume allocations and in allocated results. PRA will automatically determine and record at the well completion-level on both sides of the exchange: on the well completion receiving the exchange (VT 19 ‑ exchange from) and on the well completions contributing to the exchange (VT 09 ‑ exchange to).

10 ‑ Lease Fuel Before PM ‑ On Lease

This VT represents the total amount of gas lift gas recycled and reproduced for a particular well completion.

VOLUME CATEGORY: Actual PRA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: Yes Revenue: No

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Yes (2xx)

PRODUCTION: System-generated VT based as a sum of gas lift VTs at the well completion level:

VOLUME CATEGORY: Actual PRA USES ‑ Production: Yes

SYSTEM GENERATED: Yes Revenue: No

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Yes (2xx)

PRODUCTION: System-generated VT based on the difference between reproduced gas lift gas (VT 16) and calculated production (VT 91), both at the well completion level.

Formation Production When Gas Lift (VT 17) = Gas Lift Gas Reproduced (VT 16)(-) minus Calculated Production (VT 91)

If the difference is negative (more calculated production), then the difference is considered formation production when gas lift (VT 17). If the difference is positive (more reproduced gas lift gas (VT 16), then the difference is considered gas lift gas loss (VT 60).

18 ‑ Formation Inject‑ On Lse

PRODUCT SPECIFIC: Yes (1xx, 3xx)

PRODUCTION: Inventory of load/transfer oil on hand will only be present at a well completion level. This inventory will be increased or be created automatically with L2 volumes and will be reduced automatically by L4 and L5 volumes. The reduction of L3 inventory is restricted by the rule that load/transfer oil inventory cannot be disposed until it has been received. Therefore, no L4 or L5 volume can reduce L3 volume if the L1 or manually entered L2 run ticket date occurs after the L4 or L5 run ticket date.

L4 ‑ Load/Transfer Oil Recovered

Sales volume of oil deemed to have been recovered against load oil or tank to tank transfer inventories VTs L3. This is considered a “sales” disposition. PRA always attributes sales to be a recovery of load/ transferred oil received/inventory prior to deeming it to be part of production. The rule stating that load/transferred oil inventory cannot be disposed until it has been received, restricts L4 volume from reducing L3 volume, if the L1 or manually entered L2 run ticket date creating the L3 inventory occurs after the L4 run ticket date.
