The well designer has many tools and options available to design the lower completion (downhole completion) according to the conditions of the reservoir. Typically, the lower completion is set across the productive zone using a liner hanger system, which anchors the lower completion to the production casing string.
Oilfield service companies may produce, maintain, and repair equipment used in oil extraction and oil transportation. [1] In 2019, the global oilfield services market was US $ 267.8 billion. [ 2 ]
A workover rig. The term workover is used to refer to any kind of oil well intervention involving invasive techniques, such as wireline, coiled tubing or snubbing.More specifically, a workover refers to the expensive process of pulling and replacing completion or production hardware in order to extend the life of the well.
OCTG – oil country tubular goods (oil well casing, tubing, and drill pipe) [23] OD – outer diameter (of a tubular component such as casing [citation needed]) ODT – oil down to; OFE – oil field equipment; OFST – offset vertical seismic profile; OEM – original equipment manufacturer; OFIC – offshore interim completion certificate
By this time, the oil rigs and workover rigs used to drill and complete the well will have moved off the wellbore, and the top is usually outfitted with a collection of valves called a Christmas tree or production tree. These valves regulate pressures, control flows, and allow access to the wellbore in case further completion work is needed.
A production packer [1] is a standard component of the completion hardware of oil or gas wells used to provide a seal between the outside of the production tubing and the inside of the casing, liner, or wellbore wall. Based on their primary use, packers can be divided into two main categories: production packers and service packers.
U.S. energy producers have cut so deeply into a once-large reserve of oil wells waiting to be turned on they soon may have to resume drilling to keep production from sagging, executives and ...
The completion system must also be efficient and cost effective to achieve maximum production and financial goals. Another factor in the selection of specific completion equipment is the production rates of the well. The typical job duties of a Subsurface engineer include managing the interface between the reservoir and the well, including ...
