Apparatus and Method for Passive Fluid Control in a Wellbore

摘要

In aspects the present disclosure provides systems, devices and methods for controlling the flow of water from a subterranean formation into a production well. In one embodiment, the device may include a flow control member formed from a shape-conforming material and a hydrophilic polymer disposed within the shape-conforming member in an amount sufficient to cause the flow control member to restrict flow of water therethrough.
