This session will focus on injectivity issues. Field cases will be presented that provide insight into how different design factors such as well design (cased-hole vs open-hole, horizontal vs vertical) and operational philosophy (matrix vs fractured injection) can impact well injectivity. Different techniques for the assessment of injector performance evaluation will be discussed. The objective of the session is to aid operators in making decisions related to well completion design and operating practices to ensure sustained well injectivity.

Session chairpersons: Bulent Izgec, Hess; Feng Liang, Woodside
