The low-distortion processing of well-testing geological parameters is a key way to provide decision-making support for oil and gas field development. However, the classical processing methods face many problems, such as the stochastic nature of the data, the randomness of initial parameters, poor denoising ability, and the lack of data compression and prediction mechanisms. These problems result in poor real-time predictability of oil operation status and difficulty in offline interpreting the played back data. Given these, we propose a wavelet-based Kalman smoothing method for processing uncertain oil well-testing data. First, we use correlation and reconstruction errors as analysis indicators and determine the optimal combination of decomposition scale and vanishing moments suitable for wavelet analysis of oil data. Second, we build a ground pressure measuring platform and use the pressure gauge equipped with the optimal combination parameters to complete the downhole online wavelet decomposition, filtering, Kalman prediction, and data storage. After the storage data are played back, the optimal Kalman parameters obtained by particle swarm optimization are used to complete the data smoothing for each sample. The experiments compare the signal-to-noise ratio and the root mean square error before and after using different classical processing models. In addition, robustness analysis is added. The proposed method, on the one hand, has the features of decorrelation and compressing data, which provide technical support for real-time uploading of downhole data; on the other hand, it can perform minimal variance unbiased estimates of the data, filter out the interference and noise, reduce the reconstruction error, and make the data have a high resolution and strong robustness.
