SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR WELLBORE OPTIMIZATION

摘要

Systems and methods for wellbore optimization, which include numerical procedures for selecting an optimal wellbore trajectory and casing strength based on Formation Loading Potential A method includes using computer-implemented method for optimization of a wellbore, the method including calculating a field scale model for multiple well paths in a production field, calculating a Formation Loading Potential for the field scale model, selecting a well path having a lowest peak value of Formation Loading Potential, and determining an optimal casing strength for the wellbore.
