The FloRight ICD is designed to promote proportional production from or injection into the entire length of a horizontal well.

In conventional production wells, fluids are preferentially produced at the heel of the well or at other locations with high permeability streaks. This can lead to early water or gas break, resulting in reduced oil recovery, lost revenue and reduced well life. Balancing the inflow profile results in better coning control, thereby delaying the water or gas breakthrough.

In carbonate reservoirs in particular, FloRight can be used to restrict water production from natural fractures. TAQA’s FloRight is designed to combat this issue by promoting uniform production or injection along the entire length of the well.

Pros & Limitations

Produces oil in place of water

Applicable for oil and gas wells

Works proactively downhole

Delays water breakthrough

Qualified to API19ICD standard

You will produce less water

Specification

Title	Description
Theme/Discipline	Well ConstructionProduction Technology
Asset Life Extension	Optimises oil production over the life of the well by delaying water breakthrough and reducing gas-oil ratios.
Flexibility	Interchangeable with any combination of inflow/ outflow control valves to minimise inventory and allow flexibility on final completion design.
Deployment	Deployed as part of the lower completion or retrofitted into an existing well, mounted within a sub or integrated with sand screens.
Integration	Can be integrated with sand control screens for soft formations.
