Abstract
A control method and system for managing operations at a well. The well operation is divided into operating phases and a set of management requirements for each operating phase are established. An associate system for each discreet management requirement produces selected outputs based upon selected inputs from all the sensed dynamic variables as well as selected inputs from knowledge bases and models. Each associate displays real time functions depending upon the processing of any operating parameter, at the selected operating phase and discreet management requirement.
