1. A system comprising:

  • a network server having a processor;

    a set of energy monitoring devices connected to the network server, each energy monitoring device in communication with the well management software;

    a set of wells connected to the set of energy monitoring devices, an electricity meter connected to the set of wells and to the set of energy monitoring devices;

    the processor programmed to;

    send a request for an electricity meter reading for a period of time between the well management software and an electricity utility company;

    receive the electricity meter reading between the electricity utility company and the well management software;

    send a request for an amount of energy consumed per well and an amount of energy generated per well for the period of time between the well management software and the set of energy monitoring devices;

    measure an amount of energy consumed by each of the set of wells for the period of time;

    measure an amount of energy generated by each of the set of wells for the period of time;

    send the amount of energy consumed by each of the set of wells for the period of time and the amount of energy generated by each of the set of wells for the period of time between the set of energy monitoring devices and the well management software;

    calculate a total energy consumption for the set of wells for the period of time;

    calculate a total energy generated for the set of wells for the period of time;

    calculate a net energy for each of the set of wells for the period of time;

    calculate a total net energy for the set of wells for the period of time;

    calculate an energy correction difference between the electricity meter reading and the calculated total net energy for the set of wells for the period of time;

    calculate a percentage of the total energy generated for each of the set of wells; and

    calculate a correct net energy consumption for each of the set of wells for the period of time.
