Long-Term Inflow Profile Monitoring with Markers in Horizontal Gas Wells with Multistage Hydraulic Fracturing

Abstract

Summary Traditional methods of inflow profile monitoring are not always effective, especially when tight reservoirs are considered. One of the most progressive solutions is the use of marker technologies based on the markers' selection and subsequent identification in fluid taken at wellhead [1]. The main advantage of this technology is that there is no need to suspend work for hoisting operations in order to obtain informative field-geophysical data during well operation. The main subject of work is a fractured gas well with pumped marked quartz polymer-coated sand.
