  • Publication number: 20160298429
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a simulation apparatus may comprise a processor and a memory to store a set of instructions, which when executed by the processor, forms a machine programmed to generate an analytical solution to simulate multiple scenarios for a total fluid flow rate in order to find one of the scenarios that meets a desired total flow rate for a fluid flow entering a portion of a screen to pass through one or more orifices in a base conduit covered by the screen. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are described.

  • Publication number: 20160281472
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a method, apparatus, and computer program product for determining optimal flow control device (FCD) properties that would yield to a prescribed shape of the injection flow rate profile. For example, in one embodiment, a computer implemented method is configured to perform the steps of: determining a reference location along a production length of the injection well; determining a reference value equal to the injection flow rate profile at the reference location along the production length of the injection well; defining a target injection profile using the reference value; determining a pressure distribution along the production length of the injection well based on the target injection profile; determining a FCD distribution profile using the target injection profile and the pressure distribution; and determining FCD properties that yields the target injection profile based on the FCD distribution profile.

  • Publication number: 20160153265
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a method, apparatus, and computer program product for improving production of an oil well. For example, one disclosed embodiment includes a system that includes at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor and storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor performs operations for generating a model of a wellbore in a wellbore simulator. The at least one processor further executes an algorithm that determines optimal parameters for inflow control devices (ICD) along a horizontal portion of the wellbore. The determined optimal parameters of the inflow control devices would yield a substantially uniform approach of at least one of water and gas along the horizontal portion of the wellbore.
