Abstract:The upstream oil and gas industry is experiencing increased interest in exploration and production from complex, hostile, and deeper geologic horizons that are classified as high-pressure/high-temperature (HPHT) wells. As a result, well completion planning and design has become increasingly more critical and challenging due to uncertainties that might occur during various operational scenarios in the well's lifecycle that could result from high pressure and temperature changes.The cost of typical tubing comple… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
