Abstract
The article presents an approach for selecting the optimal type and number of autonomous inflow control devices (AICD) for the development of oil and gas deposits using multivariate hydrodynamic modeling.
According to the results of multivariate modeling, it was noted that the optimal option for completing a well with an AICD according to the criterion of accumulated production and accumulated discounted net income (NPV) varies depending on the bottom-hole pressure, and vice versa,
the optimal amount of AICD depends on the selected bottom-hole pressure.
The advantage of the proposed approach is that when selecting the layout of wells, various options for completion with AICD are modeled,
the volume of produced products and its dependence on the downhole pressure are taken into account, together with the economic component, the best completion option is determined from the point of view of economic efficiency.
For calculations, a software package was used that allows segmentation and calculation of wells with inflow control devices (developed at “RN-BashNIPIneft” LLC).
