Using a specially developed cleanout tool and a computer simulator for solids transport provides an opportunity to optimize the operation for the removal of solids to near 100% efficiency, with all fluidized solids being...

... Abstract In history matching, simulator computed well pressures are matched against the static well pressures from the field data. In practice, many simulators use pore volume averaged grid block pressures for the perforated cells to calculate the static well pressure. While this approximation...
