Abstract:In developing most deepwater fields with limited number of wells, intelligent well systems which consist of many valves and sensors are employed to maximize production capacity under facility constraints. Analysis of sensor data unaffected by wellbore effects allows operators to estimate key reservoir parameters, well capacity and calculate actual flow rates at zonal level. Decisions for operational control is made based on data analysis, the result of which is used to optimize overall field performance and ma… Show more
