Overview

Completions are the conduit between hydrocarbon reservoirs and surface facilities. They are a fundamental part of any hydrocarbon field development project. SME support the best design for safely maximizing the hydrocarbon recovery from the well and may have to last for many years under ever changing conditions. Issues include: connection with the reservoir rock, avoiding sand production, selecting the correct interval, pumps and other forms of artificial lift, safety and integrity, equipment selection and installation and future well interventions.

No matter the challenge — whether your well is a simple, single-zone completion or a complex, deepwater multilateral — you can count on SME to have the right analysis for your job.

Tubing Movement Analysis
■ Determines movement caused by buckling, piston, thermal, ballooning, friction and slackoff effects
■ Prevents deformation of wellbore hardware

Packer Hydraulics Analysis
■ Calculates job parameters to enable setting of the packer
■ Determines how to prevent tool from shifting prematurely

Torque and Drag Analysis
■ Analyzes the friction forces along the BHA while it is pulled out of hole (POOH) or run-in-hole (RIH)
■ Optimizes the BHA to reach bottom
■ Calibrates friction coefficients while RIH or POOH with BHA
