This paper discusses the development and application of universal type-curves for the
design of Advanced Well Completions (AWCs) equipped with passive (non-adjustable), flow …

Sand production is one of the major issues in the development of reservoirs in poorly
cemented rocks. Geomechanical modeling gives us an opportunity to calculate the reservoir …

An inflow-control device (ICD) is completion hardware that is deployed as part of well
completions aimed at distributing the inflow evenly. Even though the detailed structures vary …

Frictional pressure drop along the completion is an important factor in the design of
horizontal wells. It must be accounted for in order to secure optimum reservoir drainage and …

Advanced Well Completions (AWCs) employing Downhole Flow Control (DFC) technology
such as Inflow Control Devices (ICDs), Interval Control Valves (ICVs), Autonomous Inflow …

With the recent development of temperature measurement systems, continuous wellbore
temperature profiles can be obtained with high precision. Small temperature changes can …

Abstract Inflow Control Device, often referred to as equalizer, is a completion hardware that
is deployed as a part of well completions aimed at distributing the inflow evenly. Even …

New developments of electromagnetic and seismic techniques have recently revolutionized
the oil and gas industry. Time-lapse seismic data is providing engineers with tools to more …

Inflow-control devices (ICDs) were developed in response to early water breakthrough from
the heel of prolific horizontal wells. In their initial applications, the design of ICD installations …

Polymers are often injected into horizontal wells during enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
processes. During injection of these high-viscosity, non-Newtonian polymers, a significant …
