Abstract: This paper describes the further development of the virtual flow meter concept based on the author’s simulator of an unsteady gas–liquid flow in wells. The results of comparison with commercial simulators based on real well data are given as practical applications. The results of the comparison of the simulators demonstrated high correspondence (<10% error) for a number of target parameters. The description of the architecture and results of testing the algorithm for automatic settings of the model parameters are given. Operating speed was the key criterion in the architecture development. According to the test results, it became possible to achieve the adaptation accuracy of 5% specified.
