Geo,
Good DD. I have no doubt this well will do 50 mil. In fact I think 50 mil is conservative.
The restrictions are going to be the sizing of surface facilities. (these rates and pressures are pushing the extreme in piping design)
I envision an API 30,000 LB dual wing valve tree with dual 4 9/16 30,000 LB chokes (back to back) to get the downstream piping to around 10,000 psi working pressure. This piping would probably be dual 6" or 8" ASTM A519 Gr 4130Q&T mechanical tubing or 25% Chrome (Super Duplex) to a gas cooler then a multi-slot manifold for future wells. Then more choking to get the system down to 2220 psi working pressure (ASME Class 900) so that the downstream equipment can handle the pressure (separation,metering,pipeline). This design will handle up to 100 mil a day but now comes the question: where are we going to put all this gas??
