Field XYZ located in the western offshore India is a multi-pay, multi-layered heterogeneous Carbonate reservoir having lateral discontinuities. Discontinuous layers and scale deposition and near well bore damage have led to multi-dimensional problems related to both upper and lower completions reducing ultimate field recovery. Workover attempts lik...

Production logging traditionally has been used to describe the flow characteristic of a well. Over the years with the advancement of the technology, for the techno economic success, deviated and horizontal wells have been drilled. Application of highly deviated and horizontal wells for field development primary recovery is now a worldwide practice....

Production logging (PL) has long been in use in the industry for evaluating the well performance for making strategic decisions. However, understanding the production profiles is challenging in complicated flow regimes and complex wellbore completions. To increase productivity in underperforming sick wells, electrical submersible pumps (ESPs) are g...

Evaluating critical petrophysical and geological properties is the key in determining completion strategy. To optimize completions in a highly heterogeneous formation, segmented completion design was planned. Integration of borehole images with conventional openhole logs and dynamic mud loss data distinguished between facies and subfacies which can...

The first ever compartmentalized flow profiling job in a horizontal developmental well in India was a success as a result of seamless completion design, pre-job, on-job and post-job planning and job coordination. The completion strategy of the well was the core contributor for the success of the well. The integration of borehole images with convent...
