Patent

CA 2357504

A method and apparatus for performing well planning and design includes several phases, including a screening phase, a design phase, and an operating phase. The screening phase selects or categorizes candidate wells in addition to performing a general- level design. The general-level design process provides a framework in which a detailed or specific design can be performed. Once a completion system for a selected well has been designed, the operating phase is performed in which measurements taken during operation are fed back to a controller. The controller has access to a conceptual model of the completion system. The measured data is compared to an expected performance based on the model. If adjustments of settings are needed, then the controller issues commands to cause various components of the completion system to be adjusted. If adjustment of settings is not sufficient to achieve the desired level of performance as indicated by the model, then an adjustment of the model may be performed.
