    Abstract: A system and method for generating and utilizing energy from a well flowback operation while separating and storing a commercial natural gas product is provided. The method includes connecting a portable unit comprising a multiphase turbine, an energy storage system, a multiphase conditioning unit and a plurality of storage units to a production tree during the well flowback operation and channeling a multiphase flow from the production tree to the portable unit. The method includes generating a created energy from channeling the multiphase flow from the production tree to the portable unit and utilizing the created energy by storing or directly consuming the created energy to power well operations. The method further includes separating the multiphase flow into a gas component and a nongaseous component, further conditioning the gas component into a commercial natural gas product and storing the commercial natural gas product in a plurality of storage units.

    Abstract: A testing system includes a main wellbore, at least one injection tunnel and production tunnel, a monitoring system including at least one sensor, and a recovering tube. The injection and production tunnels are parallel with each other and extend perpendicularly from the main wellbore. The method for conducting in-situ oil recovery sweep testing includes introducing an injection fluid into a main wellbore and at least one injection tunnel, monitoring conditions of the at least one production tunnel, and collecting produced fluid from the production tunnel with a recovering tube. A method for conducting sequential in-situ oil recovery sweep testing includes locating a recovering tube in a target production tunnel and conducting a sweeping process. The sweeping process includes introducing an injection fluid into an injection tunnel, monitoring conditions of the target production tunnel, collecting a produced fluid from the target production tunnel, isolating the target production tunnel, and repeating.
