Study Notes
Well Completion
- The conduit for production or injection between the reservoir and the surface is known as the wellbore.
Reservoir Interval
- The section across the reservoir interval is known as the pay zone.
Wellbore Sections
- The section above the reservoir through to the wellhead is known as the completion string or upper completion.
Completion Options
- An example of a lower completion option is a gravel pack, which is used to prevent sand production from the reservoir into the wellbore.
- An example of an upper completion option is a Christmas tree, which is a set of valves and fittings on the wellhead that control the flow of fluids from the well.
