Tech Paper Road to Well Completions Electrification to Support Sustainable Field Development
Description of an all-electric completion and its economic, technical, and environmental impact.
Intelligent Completion Systems
Accelerate your monitoring and control design with integrated systems
Simplify intelligent completion design—with flexibility
Whether you are planning a few simple multizone wells or a field of complex multilaterals, you can rely on SLB expertise for preconfigured intelligent completion systems that deliver maximum performance for specific economic and technical conditions.
Each intelligent completion system and our modular equipment are designed and engineered to enable seamless integration and flexibility. Every reservoir is unique, and our technology helps you simplify planning, reduce installation risk, and implement the active monitoring and control you want for your target well type. Intuitive surface interfaces help you manage your production with ease.
Single-trip intelligent completions
For multilayered reservoirs requiring multizone independent monitoring and control
Multilateral intelligent completions
Conventional junction or unique to Schlumberger in-lateral monitoring and control in wells with multiple branches
Extended-Reach intelligent completions
For wells with extended (or extreme) reach, where multiple reservoir takeoff points require active monitoring and control
Multitrip intelligent completions
For wells with multilayered reservoirs where conditions, such as heterogeneous pressure gradients, preclude single-trip deployment
Electric Intelligent Well Completion
With an all-electric intelligent completion, you'll control fluid contributions across the sandface in near real time for any well length.
