Analysis of problems induced by imprecise dating of measurements in oil and gas production

Author: N. Petit, International Symposium on Advanced Control of Chemical Processes 2015, June 7-10, 2015, Whistler
In this paper we discuss the negative impact on monitoring algorithms of working with imprecisely dated data. Two examples from the world of the oil & gas industry are presented and serve to illustrate that this problem can be of practical importance. First analytical results show that when signals with significant time variations are monitored, the impact of dating of measurements can be as troublesome (or even worse) than measurement noises.
