About

Nowadays, the economic scenario poses new challenges for cost reduction, safety improvements, and production optimization, especially in deepwater projects and in the context of energy transition. Well design needs to achieve a higher level of operational efficiency and safety by reducing complexity, increasing flexibility, and improving availability.

In Brazilian Pre-Salt projects, Intelligent Well Completions (IWC) have been used since the early conceptual phases to properly manage reservoirs and production, aiming to exploit the full potential of these thick reservoirs. Currently, Pre-Salt fields already have over 200 IWC systems, making it one of the areas with the most intensive use of IWC systems in deepwater. Well designs and intelligent well technologies, including electric systems, are now a reality. However, are we fully utilizing the potential of this technology?

WHY ATTEND

This workshop provides a unique opportunity to review the use of IWC in Pre-Salt fields, as well as in other parts of the world, sharing knowledge, experiences, and challenges from across the globe. Subsea and topside integration will also be discussed, along with strategies for transitioning from Direct Hydraulic IWC to Electric IWC. The interaction with experienced and recognized professionals, companies, and institutions worldwide offers participants a unique opportunity to enhance their knowledge, discuss the future of this technology, and establish networking connections.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Completion, subsea, reservoir and production engineers as well as other professionals involved in research, development, installation and use of Intelligent Well Completion Systems.

KEY THEMES

  • IWC cases history
  • Demonstrated value of IWC (quantified history cases)
  • Challenges & improvements (failures, qualification requirements, non-conventional installation and operation …) on current technologies
  • Subsea and topside integration (interfaces, standard issues, …)
  • IWC reliability (different scenarios, applications, ….
  • All-electric IWC (history, development, challenges…)
  • Wet Disconnection Tool (history, development, challenges…)
  • Research & development on IWC
  • Performance & health monitoring
  • Remote operations
  • Digital transformation
  • How to integrate IWC, chemical injection, safety valve, gas lift?
  • Energy harvesting and storage and wireless telemetry do they apply everywhere?

COUNTDOWN TO THE EVENT!

ATTENDING THIS WORKSHOP SUPPORTS THE E&P INDUSTRY

The Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) is a not-for-profit organization. Income from this event will be invested back into SPE to support many other Society programs.

When you attend an SPE event, you help provide even more opportunities for industry professionals to enhance their technical and professional competence. Scholarships, certification, the Distinguished Lecturer program, and SPE’s energy education program Energy4me® are just a few examples of programs supported by SPE.
