Determination of Technical and Economic Limits for Horizontal Well in Waterflooding Reservoir

Han De-jin

Abstract

Based on real situation of horizontal well development at home and abroad, the variation of horizontal well production is analyzed. And the deduced equations of economic limitation for both well production and OOIP controlled by horizontal wells in early stage of such a development. These equations can be integrated and used to distinguish the economic benefit by horizontal drilling process and make an optimized design of it.
