One-Trip Multizone Sand-Control-Completion System in the Gulf of Mexico Lower Tertiary

摘要

This paper provides perspective on the current state of multizone completion technology and issues encountered in the industry with developing a system that offers increased capabilities to meet the increasing challenges presented by the Lower Tertiary in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). The multizone technology has proved to be an enabler for cost- efficient completions in the shallow- well environment and in the high- cost ultradeepwater environment requiring high-rate fracture- stimulation treatments.
