Dussi, S. (author), Octaviano, R. (author), Shoeibi Omrani, P.S. (author)Predicting the degradation of the Electrical Submersible Pumps (ESP) performance well in advance to avoid its failure is a rewarding yet challenging task. The complex interdependencies with well-reservoir properties and between machine components influence ESP performance and ultimately can lead to different types of failure. Predictions based...conference paper 2022
