Definition:  The methodology and technology required to produce recoverable reserves (reservoir to surface). Process:  The design, selection and installation of tubulars, tools and equipment, located in the wellbore, for the purpose of conveying, pumping or controlling production (or injection) fluids.

Example of ML well with two Laterals (Not two wells in one): Cost  To be economical the Capex should be no greater than 50% additional for each lateral

Introduction to Well Completion Completions in Multi-Lateral Well Profiles Technical Advantages: Schlumberger Private

 Increased reservoir exposure  Increase in connectivity to the reservoir, to reduce water coning, gas coning, and sanding potential  More efficient exploitation of complex reservoirs

Economic Advantages:

   

C. Alvarez

No added cost for the main bore and surface equipment No additional slot use on an offshore platform Smaller platform due to decreased surface equipment Increase in recoverable reserves

Introduction to Well Completion Intelligent Completions Intelligent Wells = Reservoir Monitoring & Control, RMC

Schlumberger Private

Known in Schlumberger as “RMC Completion”  RMC stands for: “Reservoir Monitoring & Control”  Referred to by the industry as: “Intelligent Completions” What is “RMC” or “Intelligent” Completion? A completion system which can measure and selectively control flow into or out from a specific wellbore or interval.

 Two Key Words:  Measure (or Monitoring)  Control C. Alvarez
