Chapter 1 – Introduction
Caution When implementing control using thi s product, observe best industry
practices as suggested by applicabl e and appropriate environmental,
health, and safety organizations. While this product can be used as a
safety component in a system, it is NOT intended or designed to be the
ONLY safety mechanism in that system.
This chapter describes the structure of this manual and presents an
overview and installation instructions of the Well Optimization Manager
program for the FloBoss™ 107 Flow Manager (FB107) and the ROC800Series Remote Operations Controller (ROC800).
1.1 Scope and Organization
This document is the user manual for the Well Optimization Manager
program for use in the FB107 or the ROC800.
This manual describes how to download and configure this program
(referred to as the “W ell Optimization Manager program” or “the

1.2 Pr oduc t O ver vi ew
Well Optimization Manager (a stand-alone component of the Production
Manager application suite) is an advanced user program designed to
maximize production from oil and gas wells. Intended for either the
ROC800-Series Remote Operations Controller or the FloBoss™ 107 Flow
Manager, the program supports multiple industry-standard artificial lift
techniques, including intermitter control, plunger lift (conventional and
continuous), gas lift (for liquid or gas production), plunger-assisted gas lift
(PAGL), gas-assisted plunger lift (GAPL), and basic rod pump (pump
jack) control. The program also includes a suite of features for enhanced
optimization and operation, including the Coleman Turner critical flow
calculation, the Foss and Gaul plunger lift load factor calculation, selfadjustment of plunger triggers, real time value alerts, and nomination
period accumulation control.
Following drilling and completion, most oil and gas wells begin their
service as freely flowing wells, producing hydrocarbons due simply to the
massive down-hole pressure. As time goes on and production continues,
the reservior pressure and flowrates begin to decline, requiring the
application of some form of deliquification technique to continue
production at a financially viable level. The initial solution is typically an
intermitter controller. This technique shuts-in the well, allows pressure to
build up, and opens the well again when the well is ready to flow. This
simple technique, however, is not an effective long-term solution.
Eventually, additional techniques such as plunger lift or gas-assisted lift
must be employed. As reservior pressure continues to decline, wells can
be retrofitted with a down-hole rod pump and surface pumpjack.
Throughout the life of the well, Well Optimization program can manage
and enhance production by supporting these various forms of “artificial
lift” and other operational requirements.
For the ROC800-Series environment, Well Optimization Manager has
several programmatic configurations, supporting 4, 8, or 12 wells. Each
configuration is functionally identical, except for the number of supported
wells. These configurations support expansion of additional wells on a
multi-well pad. The FB107 version of the program supports just 4 wells.
However, all versions of Well Optimization are compatible with other
common production user programs in the ROC800 and FloBoss 107 (such
as Surface Control Manager or Cause & Effect). This compatibility
enables you to implement a suite of programs designed to meet your
unique wellpad requirements.

Well Optimization Manager Program User Manual (FB107 and ROC800-Series)
Well Optimization has four major functional “components”:
Configuration
Provides a single location for the configuration of all the program
features. Once you select the features you situation requires, the
program streamlines itself by concealing features which you have not
selected. Of course, you can re-select features to configure as your
wellpad situation evolves.
Well Core Operate
Provides a summary overview of vital well statistics, including
flowrates, pressures, averages, and a wealth of other information to
help you proactively monitor your wellpad.
Gas Lift Operate
Displays both current and historical gas lift operation and enables you
to adjust the routines in use. If your well does not require gas lift
enhancements, you can conceal this function until that time occurs.
Cyclic Operate
Monitors and manages all forms of “cyclic” (on-off style behavior)
control, such as plunger lift and intermitters.
Refer to the individual sections in this manual for further information.
Caution The Well Optimization Manager program provides a watchdog timer
parameter that validates the executi o n o f th e application. This parameter
is a counter that increments by 1 at the beginning of each program cycle.
If the program stops, this read-only parameter stays at a fixed value and
does not update. Optionally, you can configure an external system (such
as an FST or SCADA) to monitor this watchdog timer parameter. If the
parameter stops updating, an external system triggers an alarm, which
allows you to take appropriate corrective action. On the ROC800, the
watchdog timer parameter is TLP 65,0,224; on the FB107, it is TLP
178,0,224.

1.3.1 License Key
License keys, when matched with valid license codes, grant access to
applications such as the Well Optimization Manager program.
For ROC800, the term “license key” refers to the physical piece of
hardware that can contain up to seven different licenses (refer to Figure
1). Each ROC800 can have none, one, or two license keys installed. If you
remove a license key after enabling an application, the firmware disables
the task from running. This prevents unauthorized execution of protected
applications in a ROC800.

Only one cyclic event record can be retrieved and displayed on this screen
at a time. Records are retrieved by their serial number. All cyclic event
records have a pair of identifying serial numbers associated with them.
The first is a global serial number, which is a unique record number
throughout the device. No two records have the same global serial
number. The second serial number is the well-specific serial number. The
program supports multiple wells, and this serial number increments on a
per-well basis. This means it is unique for the well, but not unique
throughout the device.
On the ROC800, records are kept for the last 512 cyclic events. On the
FB107, records are kept for the last 128 cycle events. These records are
stored as a file on the devices non-volatile flash file system.
