Innovative Use of Solid Expandable Liners as Host in Multilateral Well Construction Applications
, 2020Solid Expandable Tubular (SET) usage in drilling applications of oil and gas wells has traditionally spanned drilling challenges such as covering up unstable formations due to pressure variations, isolate sections with losses or wellbore intrusions ...

Production Performance of Multilateral Wells
Proceedings of SPE/IADC Middle East Drilling Technology Conference, 1999Abstract Advances in drilling and completion techniques have allowed drainage of reservoirs via tile use of multi-lateral well arrangements in a variety of configurations. The most important aspects to consider regarding the application of multi-lateral wells are the potential cost benefits and potential risks of utilizing the technology.

Smart Well Completion Optimization in Multilateral Wells
Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference, 2017Abstract The ability of smart well completions (SWCs) to best function as intended in the field, has led to renewed focus on smart well completion optimization opportunities. The action of inflow control valves (ICVs) is key to improved management of flux imbalance and premature production delay of unwanted fluids from contributing ...

Multilateral Horizontal Well Productivity
SPE Europec/EAGE Annual Conference, 2005AbstractThis paper presents experimental and theoretical investigations of multilateral/duallateral horizontal well performance in areally anisotropic reservoirs. The investigation is based on a 3D analytical solution. The analytical solution considers an arbitrary orientation of the multilaterals/duallaterals in horizontal plane.Experimental study was

Thermal Simulation with Multilateral Wells
SPE Russian Petroleum Technology Conference and Exhibition, 2016Abstract In this study we investigated full-field fine-scaled thermal reservoir models with multilateral wells that are independent of grid refinements and thus allow efficient optimization of well placements. This facilitated the production optimization and well interference study in thermal modeling framework.

Temperature Behavior in Multilateral Wells: Application to Intelligent Well
Proceedings of SPE Latin American and Caribbean Petroleum Engineering Conference, 2005Abstract Intelligent well completions are being increasingly used in complex wells (horizontal, multilateral, or multibranching). Such completions are equipped with permanent sensors to measure temperature and pressure profiles, which then must be interpreted to determine the inflow profiles of the various phases produced.

Multilateral Well Utilization on the Increase
SPE/IADC Drilling Conference, 1999Abstract Shell U.K. Exploration and Production (Shell Expro), in its effort to reduce the cost per barrel of oil, continues to foster the evolution and utilization of multilateral wells and associated new technologies to develop, both, new and maturing reservoirs in all sectors of the North Sea.
