Whenever reservoir management requires the construction of a specific multilateral scenario such as a multibranch horizontal inside a producing formation, a complex analysis is required. In this work, stress- displacement analysis in steady-state...

... for designing optimal multilateral well configuration and completion using the leading edge technologies of simple and complex multilateral junctions. The system features the use of fuzzy logic for handling ambiguous completion scenarios. The main benefits of horizontal wells consist of lowering...

... Abstract A 2-D CFD model has been developed to predict the phase separation in branching junctions for several air-water and steam-water experimental data sets. The inlet conditions of the flow are assumed to be homogeneous and dispersed. The model is based on individual phase mass...

..., are the benefits associated with publication of the negative aspects or costly failures of higher-technology multiple-lateral projects that require a mechanical tie-back or pressure seal at the junction of the laterals (i.e. Class 3 or 4 type multi-lateral wells, respectively). This paper is a case study...

... of the thermowell and prevent the probe from rotating. The springs allow the probe to pass by minor variations in tube diameter such as dents and couplings. Thermocouple junctions are bonded to the inside of the shoes and the extension wires are routed through channels to the top of the probe. Besides guiding...
