Cementless, extended reach reservoirs
Segmented well design increases options to mitigate reservoir uncertainty and maximizes the economic value of wells.
Geological uncertainty is often a critical risk factor as it defines the outcome and return on a field development over the life of well.
Extensive efforts and resource is invested to understand and describe the geology and capture/quantify the uncertainties.
As the field matures, increased data captured, improves the models, impacting development decisions. However, the economic value of the project remains dependent on the ability to mitigate the risks associated with remaining uncertainties.
Also to increase net present value of their assets, extended reach horizontal reservoir sections are becoming critical to operators looking to increase well productivity and maximize their ROI. Extended reach lower completion design creates significant concerns over the ability to execute a conventional cement or perforated liner well design due to the high inclination nature of the reservoir section.
Modelling services
Successful Welltec® Annular Barrier (WAB®) sealing across the cap rock can be ensured through 3D geomechanical modelling of the expansion of the Welltec packers into the rock formation.
In specific projects flow modelling is also used in the packer configuration to ensure the zonal isolation benefits and minimize risk of flow through formation behind the packers.
