1.

2.

Well Data (Casing or liner size and

weight, Tubing size, type and
thread (new or used), Perforated or
open hole interval, Pump setting
depth (measured and vertical)
Production Data (Wellhead tubing
pressure, Wellhead casing pressure,
Test production rate, Producing
fluid level and/or well flowing
pressure Static fluid level and/or
static bottom-hole, pressure Datum
point, Bottom-hole temperature
Desired, production rate Gas-oil
ratio, Water cut)
