Abstract:Recent advances in drilling technology have resulted in longer horizontal wells and have increased the complexity of well completion; the well intervention is becoming more challenging. Conventional techniques are no more adequate to access in long openhole horizontal sections when using coiled tubing to perform intervention works such as stimulations, logging and zonal isolation. This essay was created to assess the capability of a coiled tubing string to reach the desired depth in a projected long horizontal… Show more
