Table of n, a(n) for n=1..50.

Example

k=1: Prime[2]+2*Prime[2-1]=3+2*2=7 is prime, so n(1)=2;
k=2: Prime[10]+2*Prime[10-2]=29+2*19=67 is prime, so n(2)=10;
while
Prime[3]+2*Prime[3-1]=5+2*3=11 is prime, not count according to the definition

Mathematica

Do[n[k] = 0, {k, 1, 2000}]; ct = 0; nm = 0; n2 = 0; n1 = 2; p1 = 3; While[ct < 200, n2 = 1; p2 = Prime[n1 - n2]; While[cp = p1 + 2*p2; ! PrimeQ[cp], n2++; p2 = Prime[n1 - n2]]; If[n[n2] == 0, n[ n2] = n1; If[n2 > nm, nm = n2]; If[n2 <= 200, ct++ ]; Print[Table[n[k], {k, 1, nm}]]]; n1++; p1 = Prime[n1]];
