“…Likewise, estimating the heat flow rate from the fluid flow rate is critical in designing a downhole heat exchanger. Al-Saedi and Kabir [27] presented a simplified analytical model for fluid flow rate and provided a specific heat flow rate by incorporating the Joule-Thompson effect. Similarly, Sharma et al [28] provided further insights into exploring the new prospects with designed wells to generate hot water for direct use to meet various industrial needs.…”

In recent years, the oil and gas sector has been moving towards green production methods to achieve net-zero emission goals. Governments and corporations have started large-scale initiatives to deploy advanced technologies to reduce carbon footprints and prevent global warming. Herein, we have explored the emerging techniques and methods used in reducing the effects of gas emissions in the oil and gas industry. The transition process from hydrocarbons to renewable energy resources, including solar thermal applications for EOR, thermal energy extraction from hydrocarbon reservoirs, hydrogen generation strategies, and CO<sub>2</sub> EOR and storage applications, has also been discussed. Literature information and publicly available data have paved the way to provide the theoretical background, the rationale of use, screening and selection criteria, challenges, and workarounds for these novel energy sources. Systems to integrate green methods into oil and gas processes appear in detail, from screening to implementation. Then, the technical information for integrating these resources under multiple conditions that affect the system's efficiency, such as weather, seasonal temperature changes, wind, and solar exposure, have been investigated. Moreover, added benefits of such incorporation strategies, such as improved economics with minimal effects on capital intensiveness or other burdens on the overall economy, have also been addressed. The transition from fossil fuels to renewable and greener energy resources provided the underlying motivation for this study.

“…Many investigations have appeared in the literature on transient-temperature analysis in hydrocarbon and geothermal reservoirs. Some of these studies include those of App and Yoshioka [54], Duru and Horne [55], Mao and Zeidouni [56,57], Onur et al [58], Galvao et al [59], and Al Saedi and Kabir [60][61][62], among others. Besides estimating the initial formation temperature, handling the gauge placement and Joule-Thompson or J-T effect became the focal points of some of these studies.…”

“…Here, we focus on estimating the heat-flow rate from the fluid-flow rate to facilitate the superposition approach for the initial-formation temperature estimation, analogous to that in pressure-transient analysis. The methodology and solution approach appears in [60,61]. Let us start with the wells discussed in Section 3.4 to illustrate how a multirate test can unveil the static formation temperature or T ei .…”

Investigations on two-phase gas/liquid flow in pipes have been under study for nearly six decades. These studies have significantly assisted in managing fluid flow in the wellbore and surface networks, leading to the separation of phases and transmission of oil and gas into the market. This study summarizes some of the main lessons learned in flow through wellbores. Besides understanding some of the fundamental principles, we focused on the practical items of interest: Conventional production scenarios for oil and gas wells; Liquid loading in gas wells; Production in geothermal wells; Heat flow from fluid flow; Transient non-isothermal wellbore modeling; Well blowout in drilling operation; Estimating static geothermal and flowing-temperature gradients in gas wells; Heat mining with fluid circulation in wellbores. Given the diversity of the methods mentioned above, understanding flows in the wellbore and the reservoir becomes equally important. One critical item is the fluid temperature measurement associated with the fluid flow that enables validation of the fluid flow rate, besides revealing information about the reservoir characteristics.

The Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) is used to overcome the defects of traditional production profile testing technology, and realize the real-time and accurate temperature monitoring of complex underground reservoirs. Scientific interpretation of the physical phenomena and response characteristics behind the DTS temperature data is the key to accurately obtain the real-time production status and reservoir information, and is also an important premise to realize the intelligent real-time remote control of underground production. Presently, the temperature response characteristics of the production profile for multilayered gas wells have not been clearly defined, which leads to the technical problems of DTS monitoring the production profile of such gas wells. Therefore, considering the influence of the fluid heat convection, viscous dissipation, heat conduction, and other factors involved in the process of gas porous flow, this study establishes a pressure-temperature field coupling model for the multilayered gas reservoir porous flow, programs to solve the formation temperature changes for transient testing of a multilayered gas reservoir, and analyzes the influence of the temperature response characteristics of production profile on differences between gas production and formation parameter. The gas production profile of each layer are also obtained, and the accuracy and reliability of temperature response prediction are verified by fitting the actual DTS temperature test data of an offshore-multilayered gas well. The results of this study provide ideas regarding quantitative interpretation and analysis of DTS monitoring data for production profile of multilayered gas wells.
