  • Iterative method for estimating productivity index (PI) values in maximum reservoir contact (MRC) multilateral completions
    Patent number: 10508521
    Abstract: A process for determining the productivity index of a multilateral completion using data from individual laterals and data from commingled well tests is disclosed. The process includes 1) determining the productivity index for each single lateral by iteratively altering the productivity index until the individual lateral flowrate based on a known reservoir pressure is matched and 2) further determining the productivity index by iteratively altering the productivity index until the commingled flowrate is matched. The productivity index may be used to set wellhead pressures and inline control valve (ICV) settings for production.
