This article is a synopsis of paper SPE 50146, "New Completion Techniques Applied to a Deepwater Gulf of Mexico TLP Completion Successfully Gravel Pack an Openhole Horizontal Interval of 2,400 ft," by Pete Duhon, Alan Holley, Nick Gardiner, SPE, and Tommy Grigsby, SPE, Halliburton Energy Services Inc., originally presented at the 1998 SPE Asia Pacific Oil and …
A method is disclosed for placing gravel within an annulus formed in a non-vertical borehole by the placement of a screen within the borehole. First, a slurry of gravel, polymer, and oil field brines is injected into the annulus to control fluid leakoff, pack the perforations, and pack from 50% to 75% of the screen-borehole annulus. Then a slurry of gravel and water is injected into …
Horizontal gravel designs are available that utilize the concept illustrated in Fig. 8, which shows pressure plotted as a function of pump rate. The fracture pressure is identified, and a treating pressure is shown. Note that at low rates, there is insufficient transport to initiate alpha-wave transport, but at slightly higher pump rates, the ...
Halliburton has announced that it was awarded an international license for ExxonMobil's patented Non-Aqueous Fluid Gravel Packing (NAFPac) technique for gravel pack completions. Hole stability and shale inhibition are keys to successful installation of open-hole completions.
Horizontal well technology revitalized the Uracoa field, improving production from an average of 243 bo/d/well from nine wells to 42,000 bo/d from the field. In only 61/2 years, horizontal wells ...
A pressure-maintenance, horizontal gravel-pack system would be used to perform the gravel pack. The lower lateral gravel-pack assembly would be tied back to the bottom of the 9–5/8-in. production casing. The upper lateral completion would penetrate the 4B sand and would be gravelpacked with a pressure-maintenance, horizontal gravel-pack system.
