Unique Solution to a Challenging Multilateral Well Intervention Using an Electric Multilateral Tool and Distributed Temperature Diagnostics on Coiled Tubing in a West Kuwait Field
Abstract:Multilateral wells offer multiple benefits to oil and gas operators, including lowering the field development cost by minimizing wellsite construction work and increasing reservoir contact leading to enhanced reservoir production. They also present challenges, with each leg requiring separate intervention and uniform stimulation to gain full advantage of these complex wells.
An operator in Kuwait drilled a 2-leg level 1 multilateral well to enhance production from the Mishref formation. Mishref … Show more
