... would increase critical oil rate by ten times comparing to the conventional well. Although attractive, the DWL technique is constrained by well-reservoir system properties such as oil viscosity, relative oil permeability, bottom water thickness, well penetration and reservoir anisotropy. This study...

It is underlain by the Three Forks Formation of Late Devonian age with a maximum thickness of approximately 250 ft (76 m) in eastern McKenzie County. The Three Forks is composed of thinly interbedded greenish gray and reddish brown shales...

... layer), different scenarios were studied. This study is focused on simulation of formation-A of a carbonate reservoir which consists of three layers; where horizontal well is going to be drilled in layer-2 of this formation. The average thickness of formation-A is about 167.64 meters (550 feet) and we...

..., The effects of the following parameters on productivity have been investigated: well location, pay zone thickness, well producing length, principal permeability, and dimensions of drainage volume. It is concluded that, though each of these parameters has an effect on productivity, the well length...

... the annulus was recorded at fixed positions and with mobile cameras. The observation and identification of the flow patterns during the treatment was made. A set of pins was inserted into the casing wall. This allowed the measurement of thickness of the emulsion coating the annular surface. The surface area...

The current methods do not optimize the thickness of the primer and the mechanisms of corrosion prevention in the presence of abrasive materials are not well understood. This paper addresses these shortcomings of the past and proposes a comprehensive technique for corrosion...

Besides the estimation of these parameters, it will be beneficial to estimate the thickness of the kicking formation prior to drilling. This helps to drill safely and carefully through the potentially active kicking formation...
