Hi
I am auditing flow lines of new oil wells. Oil wells have a regular oil pipeline and a test pipeline.
What is the test pipeline for?
Thanks

RE: in an oil well, What is a test line for?
I don't understand your system so you need to draw it. Normally a single well will simply either have test connections for a mobile test separator or 3 phase meter or will connect at a manifold with other wells to a test header so that individual wells can be tested.
But there might be a different type of test. Please elaborate.
Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

The testing is to see if it produces.
Thanks.
