Well-Control Operations in Horizontal Wells

SPE Drilling Engineering, 1991
Summary This paper analyzes well control for horizontal wells. It presents a computer model for predicting the pressure behavior in a horizontal well during gas-kick removal and analyzes the simulation results for several field conditions.

Productivity of a Horizontal Well

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1988
Abstract Two appendices describe the mathematical and algebraic details that led to the formulas provided in the text of this paper. Appendix A presents the general solution, and briefly describes the techniques for deriving simple, closed form expressions for single, double, and triple sums of infinite series. Appendix B describes these

Modeling Well Performance for Fractured Horizontal Gas Wells

Proceedings of International Oil and Gas Conference and Exhibition in China, 2010
Abstract In tight gas reservoirs, horizontal wells have been used to increase reservoir contact and hydraulic fracturing has been applied to further extend the contact of the reservoir. Point source solution has been used to describe the flow behavior.

The Analysis of Horizontal Extension Capability in Horizontal Wells

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
It is critical to understand whether the available drilling assembly could meet the requirements of drilling design during the design and drilling of horizontal wells. This paper pointed out several limitations on horizontal extension capability of horizontal wells and provided judging criteria of the limit of horizontal extension based upon the ...

Survey Of Horizontal Gas Well Activity

SPE Gas Technology Symposium, 1996
Abstract This paper presents the results of a survey on horizontal gas well activity throughout the world. The survey was conducted for the Gas Research Institute (GRI) in 1993 and focused on cataloguing the number of horizontal gas well completions and the type of formations in which they were completed.

Perforating the Horizontal Well

Journal of Petroleum Technology, 1989
Perforating a horizontal well may seem no different from Perforating a horizontal well may seem no different from perforating a vertical well. Horizontal well attributes, which perforating a vertical well. Horizontal well attributes, which are extremely attractive for fluid recovery and reservoir management. are controlled or enhanced only partially by

Analysis of Interference Tests with Horizontal Wells

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2003
Abstract One of the common assumptions used in horizontal-well interference test analysis is to ignore fluid flow in an out of the horizontal observation well and represent it by an observation point. In some cases, the active well is also approximated by a vertical line source.

Unconfined Linear Flow to a Horizontal Well

Groundwater, 2005
Abstract The validity of a previously proposed but untested modification to equations for flow to a horizontal well is assessed using a specially developed finite‐difference model. This modification extends confined flow equations to allow the head in the well and the saturated depth at the well to be estimated in unconfined ...

Geophysics and the horizontal well

The Leading Edge, 1989
Peter Gretener, Professor of Geophysics at the University of Calgary, teaches (along with Tom Davis of the Colorado School of Mines) SEG’s Continuing Education course Reservoir Heterogeneity: Causes, Detection, and Remedial Action (previously titled Seismic and Geological Analysis of Fractured Reservoirs). Gretener obtained his doctorate from the Swiss
