EquiFlow Inflow Control Device


Homogenous reservoirs
Horizontal wells provide
Greater reservoir contact Higher production than vertical wells with lower drawdown

Frictional forces in the tubing can be significant


Early water and/or gas breakthrough in the heel

With ICD

EquiFlow Inflow Control Device


Heterogeneous reservoirs
Equalizes the pressure drop along the interval for a more efficient completion
Longer producing life due to delay of water/gas coning Production per unit length improved

Decreased flow rate of high mobility fluids Better sweep efficiency

Without ICD

With ICD

EquiFlow Inject System


Similar design to the EquiFlow ICD, but takes injected fluid properties into consideration Allows for a more homogeneous placement of the injection fluid Application
Avoids breakthrough of injected fluid into producers Better placement of injection fluid into different formation layers Evens out effects of permeability differences and fractures

EquiFlow Adjustable ICD


Adjustable EquiFlow systems
Pre-configured with a set of tubes Re-configure tubes on rig to change the pressure drop

Updated info from LWD/MWD


What info do you get from logging tools? Will this info change your EquiFlow ICD configuration?

EquiFlow Systems Configuration


Pressure drop across tubes determined by:
Tube length Tube ID Number of tubes (standard 4 length) (depending req. pressure drop) (normally 3-5 tubes per ICD)
ICD - Flow Rate vs Pressure Drop
400 350 Pressure Drop 1 Pressure Drop 2 Pressure Drop 3

EquiFlow Why Choose a Tube?


Halliburtons tube ICD technology bridges the nozzle/helix performance gap
30% less sensitive than a nozzle to a change in pressure drop from erosion 60% less sensitive than a helix to a change in flow rate with water breakthrough
