Smart Well: a Robust Tool in Reservoir Management of Fractured Reservoirs

A well equipped with intelligent components is considered smart only when is maximizes its value over the life of the project. Proper knowledge of this technology with some risk mitigating techniques , makes several benfits to an oil company including the capability of reservoir management . reservoir management is the recurring process in which an oilfield operator uses mathematical modeling data and expertise to optimize reservoir profitability or some othe stated objective about oilfield performance. A common list of reservoir - management objectives includes the following; decrease risk. increase oil and gas production. maximize recovery. minimize capital expenditures. minimize operting costs. maximize profitability. that are achievable by using smart wells in fractured reservoirs. In fracture reservoirs due to uncertainty about fractures and fissures they cannot simulated similar to real case. the smart well implementation in fracture reservoir is the same as other geological features but the workflow strategy is different.
