COMPLETION SYSTEMS WITH FLOW RESTRICTORS

摘要

A method of completing a wellbore is disclosed that in one non-limiting embodiment includes: placing a lower completion assembly that includes a flow device to provide fluid communication between the lower completion assembly and a production zone associated with the lower completion assembly; placing an isolation assembly with a packer above the lower completion assembly for isolating an annulus between the lower completion assembly and the wellbore; placing a flow restriction device above the packer; setting the flow restriction device in the annulus to restrict flow of fluid through the annulus; and setting the packer after setting the flow restriction device.

1. A method of completing a wellbore, comprising:
placing a lower completion assembly that includes a flow device that provides fluid communication between the lower completion assembly and a production zone surrounding the lower completion assembly; placing an isolation assembly with a packer above the lower completion assembly for isolating an annulus between the lower completion assembly and the wellbore; placing a flow restriction device above the packer; setting the flow restriction device in the annulus to restrict flow of fluid through the annulus via at least one of a fluid passage of the flow restriction device and a gap of the flow restriction device, at a selected restricted rate; and setting the packer after setting the flow restriction device.
