Tubing 2 7/6
J
2.5 bpd/psi
WOR 6:1
Production required 100 BOPD
Surface injection pressure 850 psi
Production WHP 50 psi
Av/Ab = .11
TD 8200
Calculations
Oil Gravity = .825
Total Fluid gravity =.825*.433*1/7 +1.07*.433*6/7 = .45 psi/ft
Flowing BHP BHP-q/J 3200-700/2.5=2920 psi
Find the gas gradient in the casing be calculating the pressure at a
depth of one half of the TD. In this case the pressure at 4000
is 930 psi using a gravity of .6. The gas gradient is .02 psi/ft.
Find the depth that the casing pressure is 100 psi over the tubing
pressure. By graphically or by solving the for the depth.
Psur + Dko G gas PD = BHPf Go (TD Dko )
850 + Dko .02 100 = 2920 .45(8200 Dko )
Dko = 3535 ft
Select the valve closing pressure, decreasing with depth, using the
surface pressure that is available, in this case 830, 830, 810, 795 psi.
Find the unloading gradient for the tubing size using the plot, then
calculate valve depth. Use the closing pressure of
D1 = ( p v1 p sp ) / G s
D1 = (850 50) / .5 = 1600'
D2 = ( p v 2 G f D1 p sp ) / G s
D2 = (830 .14 *1600 50) / .5 = 1110 + 1600 = 2710
D3 = ( p v 3 G f ( D1 + D2 ) p sp ) / G s
D3 = (830 .14(2710) 50) / .5 = 800 + 2710 = 3510'
D4 = ( p v 4 G f ( D3 ) p sp ) / G s
D4 = (810 .14 * 3510 50) / .5 = 540 + 3510 = 4050
A
= 710 / .89 = 797 psi
