Abstract:This paper presents the results of a study of the transient performance of a horizontal well that has been completed using Inflow Control Devices (ICD's) to modify the inflow profile along the wellbore to minimize the risk of premature gas or water breakthrough into the well. A realistic pressure and rate-transient design and interpretation computational model was developed and utilized in this study. The mathematical model has been used to evaluate the transient performance of a horizontal wellbore in single … Show more
