A type of sand-control completion in which the gravel pack screen is packed off in an openhole section with no casing or liner to support the producing formation. The openhole interval is often prepared by underreaming a section of reservoir below the last casing shoe. When the treatment is to be applied on an existing well, a section of casing may be milled out.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of safety valve in which the principal components can be run and retrieved by wireline or slickline. The valve assembly is landed in a ported nipple that is equipped with a control line connected to the surface control system. This configuration enables the safety valve to be easily retrieved for repair or maintenance, but the resulting internal bore of the WRSV must be relatively small.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of retrievable packer used in squeeze-cementing operations. Key features include a bypass system and hold-down slips. The bypass system prevents surge and swab effects when running and retrieving the packer and enables circulation of the cement slurry to the proximity of the packer before closing the bypass for injection into the treatment zone. The hold-down slip assembly enables application of high squeeze pressure without the risk of the packer unsetting or moving up the wellbore.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of reservoir-drive system in which the energy for the transport and production of reservoir fluids is derived from the gas dissolved in the fluid. As reservoir fluids enter the wellbore, changing pressure conditions cause the gas to break from solution to create a commingled flow of gas and liquid that aids production.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of reservoir-drive mechanism in which the energy for the transport and production of reservoir fluids is provided by the gas dissolved in the liquid. As reservoir fluids enter the wellbore, changing pressure conditions cause the gas to break from solution to create a commingled flow of gas and liquid that aids production.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of reservoir-drive mechanism in which the energy for the transport and production of reservoir fluids is provided by the expansion of gas either in the gas cap or inside the oil phase.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of pump that operates on the principle of a high-pressure fluid jet and the venturi effect it creates. Jet pumps are relatively inefficient but can tolerate a wide range of operating conditions, including easily handling sand-laden or abrasive fluids.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of pump commonly used in the handling and mixing of oilfield fluids. The rotary motion of a profiled impeller in combination with a shaped pump housing or volute applies centrifugal force to discharge fluids from the pump. Centrifugal pumps generally operate most efficiently in high-volume, low-output-pressure conditions. Unlike a positive-displacement pump, the flow from centrifugal pumps can be controlled easily, even allowing flow to be completely closed off using valves on the pump discharge manifold while the pump is running. This pump is sometimes known as a "C pump. "
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of production packer that incorporates a sealbore that accepts a seal assembly fitted to the bottom of the production tubing. The sealbore packer is often set on wireline to enable accurate depth correlation. For applications in which a large tubing movement is anticipated, as may be due to thermal expansion, the sealbore packer and seal assembly function as a slip joint.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of packer used predominantly in production applications. A hydraulic packer typically is set using hydraulic pressure applied through the tubing string rather than mechanical force applied by manipulating the tubing string.
