Under-balanced well bore cleanout and production evaluation technology

Presentation Overview Technology Validation How It Works Applications Benefits Case Histories & Successes

Questions Surrounding Horizontal Well designs How long should the lateral section be in a given formation? Is drainage making it to the toe of the lateral? Liner design, open hole packer ball frac, cemented liner etc. Optimize stimultion size and type What is the PBHP and inflow characteristics at specific intervals or stages? How does this correlate with frac type / volume and strip log. Flow characteristics of fluid and solids in a horizontal liner Drainage Area

Hz well information? How do we gather it? High water cut gas inflow High oil cut $$

Sub-hydrostatic or under-pressured reservoirs Horizontal and extended reach well designs Velocities in liners allow for solids settling Lateral producing interval may not be 100% utilized (undulations) Investigating inflow characteristics on non-flowing oil wells Technology Validation

Technology Validation Technology Validation Alternative processes such as; Fluid circulation Coiled tubing gas/foam cleanouts Tubing bailing Swabbing all have limitations and can no longer be generally applied to our complex horizontal well designs. –Adds pressure to formation (over-balanced, potential formation damage due to fluid loss) –Does not work in Hz –Costly to deploy –Slow process --- › expensive

How it Works This systems utilizes two unique technologies that have revolutionized horizontal well bore intervention and operations. Our JetVak™ system utilizes Dual Coiled tubing technology as well as specifically engineered jet pump to remove solids and liquids from well bores. The primary function of this technology is to create a low pressure environment in the well bore to pump the fluid and/or solids to surface up the second conduit in the Dual Coil. Dual Coiled Tubing

Applications Horizontal frac or produced sand cleanout Horizontal production evaluation (isolated) –Identify water sources or re-stimulation intervals Drilling fluid damage mitigation and cleanout Liner failure cleanout and detection Injection well cleanout High volume and high permeability well cleanout SAGD or cyclic steam flood well cleanout

Conclusions Horizontal wells are much more complex than we give them credit for, there for our processes and tools that we use on them must also be more investigative and complex. As reservoir pressures deplete the success ratio of existing cleanout technology will be reduced. Production evaluating will become more common as we identify water sources and re-stimulation intervals.
