	# ManyWells: simulation of multiphase flow in thousands of wells

	The ManyWells datasets contain simulations of multiphase (gas, oil, water) flow in thousands of wells. The datasets were created and shared by Solution Seeker AS to support research on data-driven methodologies and industrial applications of machine learning and AI.

	## Description of datasets

	There are currently three datasets for three different operating conditions:
	- manywells-sol-1: simulations with stationary boundary conditions and open-loop control (no feedback)
	- manywells-nsol-1: simulations with non-stationary boundary conditions and open-loop control (no feedback)
	- manywells-nscl-1: simulations with non-stationary boundary conditions and closed-loop control (with feedback)

	Each dataset has one million data points from 2000 vertical wells (500 data points per well).
	Each data point corresponds to one simulation performed by the simulator code in the [ManyWells GitHub repository](https://github.com/solution-seeker-as/manywells).

	The datasets include a feature called "ID", which uniquely identifies a wells.
	Please note that ID are unique only within each dataset, meaning that well 1 in dataset A is different from well 1 in dataset B.

	The parameters used in the simulation can be found in the config files, named [dataset-name]_config.zip.
	The configuration is stored as a dictionary with the keys being the well IDs.

	### Dataset features


	\| Feature \| Description \| Unit \|
	\|:--------\|:------------------------------------------------------------------\|------:\|
	\| ID \| Unique well ID \| - \|
	\| CHK \| Choke position in \[0, 1\] \| - \|
	\| PBH \| Pressure bottomhole \| bar \|
	\| PWH \| Pressure wellhead \| bar \|
	\| PDC \| Pressure downstream choke \| bar \|
	\| TBH \| Temperature bottomhole \| K \|
	\| TWH \| Temperature wellhead \| K \|
	\| WGL \| Mass flow rate, lift gas \| kg/s \|
	\| WGAS \| Mass flow rate, gas excl. lift gas \| kg/s \|
	\| WLIQ \| Mass flow rate, liquid \| kg/s \|
	\| WOIL \| Mass flow rate, oil \| kg/s \|
	\| WWAT \| Mass flow rate, water \| kg/s \|
	\| WTOT \| Mass flow rate, total incl. lift gas \| kg/s \|
	\| QGL \| Volumetric flow rate at standard conditions, lift gas \| Sm³/h \|
	\| QGAS \| Volumetric flow rate at standard conditions, gas excl. lift gas \| Sm³/h \|
	\| QLIQ \| Volumetric flow rate at standard conditions, liquid \| Sm³/h \|
	\| QOIL \| Volumetric flow rate at standard conditions, oil \| Sm³/h \|
	\| QWAT \| Volumetric flow rate at standard conditions, water \| Sm³/h \|
	\| QTOT \| Volumetric flow rate at standard conditions, total incl. lift gas \| Sm³/h \|
	\| FGAS \| Inflow gas mass fraction \| - \|
	\| FOIL \| Inflow oil mass fraction \| - \|
	\| FWAT \| Inflow water mass fraction \| - \|
	\| WEEKS \| Weeks since first data point \| 7d \|
	\| CHOKED \| Boolean indicating if flow is choked \| - \|
	\| FRBH \| Flow regime at bottomhole (represented by string) \| - \|
	\| FRWH \| Flow regime at wellhead (represented by string) \| - \|

	The following relations apply:
	- WLIQ = WOIL + WWAT
	- WTOT = WLIQ + WGAS + WGL
	- QLIQ = QOIL + QWAT
	- QTOT = QLIQ + QGAS + QGL

	The flow regime features, FRBH and FRWH, may take on one of the following string values:
	'bubbly', 'slug-churn', 'annular'.

	The WEEKS feature is only present in non-stationary datasets (manywells-nsol-1 and manywells-nscl-1).

	### Personal and sensitive information

	The datasets do not contain any personal, sensitive, or private data.

	## How to use the data?

	The following snippet shows how to use the HuggingFace datasets package to download the dataset in Python.

	```
	import datasets

	# Download 'manywells-sol-1'
	data = datasets.load_dataset("solution-seeker-as/manywells", name='manywells-sol-1')

	# Cast dataset to a Pandas DataFrame
	df = data['train'].to_pandas()

	# Print the data
	print(df)
	```
