Abstract

Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method: Historical and forecasted field life data for existing gas wells is received, including pressure and temperature data at different depths of the existing gas wells over the life of the existing gas wells. Using the historical and forecasted field life data for the existing gas wells, a sub-erosion production rates model is generated for in situ estimation of sub-erosion for gas wells. Well parameters for a subject gas well are received. Using the well parameters of the subject gas well, the sub-erosion production rates model is executed to identify high-erosion risk spots in the subject gas well, including using iteratively evaluating results using three different methods. Outputs of the sub-erosion production rates model are provided for presentation to a user in a graphical user interface (GUI).
