COMMENTS
Without the condition on monotonicity, this would be essentially the same as A052187, but there 255767 is followed by 247099, while monotonicity here gives 689467. Similarly, following a(9) = A052187(10) = 6314393 we have a(10) = 9113263, while A052187(11) = 4911251. The next term which is not matching is a(14) = 69266033 vs A052187(15) = 34346203. One may notice that the two terms differ approximately by a factor of 2.

EXAMPLE
a(1) = A047948(1) = 47 is the least prime p(k) such that p(k+1) - p(k) = p(k+2) - p(k+1) = 6.
a(2) = A052188(1) = 199 is the least prime p(k) > 47 such that p(k+1) - p(k) = p(k+2) - p(k+1) = 12.
a(3) = A052189(1) = 20183 is the least prime p(k) > 199 such that p(k+1) - p(k) = p(k+2) - p(k+1) = 18.
a(4) = A052190(1) = 40039 is the least prime p(k) > 20183 such that p(k+1) - p(k) = p(k+2) - p(k+1) = 24.
a(5) = A052195(1) = 69593 is the least prime p(k) > 40039 such that p(k+1) - p(k) = p(k+2) - p(k+1) = 30.
