    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for determining a reservoir property distinct from a near-wellbore/completion characteristic. The methods include obtaining non-transient well data regarding a measurable characteristic of a well that is used to establish a functional relationship between a reservoir property, a near-wellbore/completion characteristic, and the measurable characteristic of the well. A model that relates the reservoir property and the near-wellbore/completion characteristic is used to generate a modeled near-wellbore/completion characteristic value from an input reservoir property value, or vice versa. The input value and the modeled value are then tested against the well data using the functional relationship. The model is used repeatedly with different input values until a validated reservoir property value and a validated near-wellbore/completion characteristic value are identified that at least substantially satisfy the functional relationship. The validated reservoir property value and the validated near-wellbore/completion characteristic are reported for use in business decisions regarding one or more wells.

    摘要: Methods of regulating flow in a hydrocarbon well include identifying at least two dissimilar zones in an interval of a well, perforating a well completion in the interval according to a limited-entry perforation strategy, and re-perforating the well completion in the interval according to a re-perforating strategy. The limited-entry perforation strategy is adapted to produce a plurality of limited-entry perforations. The limited-entry perforation strategy varies the perforations within the interval based at least in part on dissimilarities between the at least two dissimilar zones. The re-perforation strategy produces a plurality of re-perforations and is based at least in part on the limited-entry perforation strategy. The re-perforation strategy is adapted to at least substantially align a portion of the re-perforations with a portion of the limited-entry perforations.

    摘要: A method associated with the selection of tubulars for hydrocarbon production is described. In particular, the method is associated with the evaluation of performance limits of threaded connections. In this method, constituents of an evaluation group of threaded connections are determined via model analysis. Then, physical testing on a first group of threaded connections in the evaluation group is conducted. Modeling analysis on the first group and a second group of threaded connections is performed, wherein the second group are not physically tested. Once modeled, the results from the physical testing and the modeling analysis are compared to assess a characteristic performance factor for the first group. Then, the characteristic performance factor is applied to the second group, and the performance limits are defined based on this characteristic performance factor.

    摘要: A method associated with the selection of tubulars for hydrocarbon production is described based upon evaluating the performance limits of threaded connections. Constituents of an evaluation group of threaded connections are determined and then a first group of the connections is evaluated via model analysis over a range of conditions. Then, physical testing on a first group of threaded connections in the evaluation group is conducted over that range of conditions. Once modeled, the results from the physical testing and the modeling analysis of the first group are compared to assess a characteristic performance factor for the first group. A second group of threaded connections are determined and the assessed performance factor from the first group is applied to a second group, and the performance limits of the second group are defined over the range of conditions based on this characteristic performance factor, without requiring testing the second group.
