Well Modelling
Development of Deep-Water and EOR projects lead to the usage of complex well geometries
To optimise the design of these wells, it is required to understand the effects of the following elements:
- Multilateral - Flow within the laterals - Understanding of the X-Flow
- Smart Wells - Downhole control valves - Understanding of the effects of the valves - optimising their size and location
- Heat exchange between the reservoir and the different components of the well (i.e. casing flow, tubing flow...)
- Behaviour of steam circulation wells and associated heat exchange - steam quality
- Counterflow - Fluid circulation, ICV modelling...
- Transient behaviour
- Gravel Pack Modelling
