Flow Control
Q-Controller
™
Inflow Control Device
Variperm’s Q-Controller
™
is a liner-deployed autonomous, nozzle-based inflow control system for vertical, horizontal or deviated well completions. The Q-Controller independently and autonomously controls water breakthrough. Oil production is unhindered with the Q-Controller design and is preferentially produced over both water and gas. Installing multiple Q-Controllers
can improve recovery rates and optimize the inflow profile along the production interval. Each Q-Controller is completed and custom designed with Variperm’s direct wrapped screen, resulting in large open flow areas for optimal exposure to the reservoir sand and producing interval. The Q-Controller is applicable for optimal inflow distribution control and increases productivity. An integrated wire-wrapped screen for reservoir-specific sand control is combined and deployed in a single trip.
Features and Benefits
Engineered nozzle sizes along the work string for uniform inflow profile
Sand Control options include proSTRAIGHT
™
, proSEAM
™
, proWRAP
™
, proPUNCH
™
, proMESH
™
, and proPACK
™
Flush OD to match blank casing and large ID bore access
Zonal isolation in each independent area of formation it resides in for optimal control
High Torque-Sealed Connections allow rotation of the Q-Controller
™
liner during installation
Improved recovery rates, production optimization and well management
Tungsten carbide nozzles reduce erosion and corrosion
Pressure drop across nozzles are viscosity insensitive; High-flowing velocity water can be choked effectively by higher pressure drop
Nozzles can be plugged into Q-Controller at rig-site with minimal handling
Variperm’s proprietary wellbore simulation software (NALU) creates custom nozzle size design
Applications
Production wells requiring sand and flow control
Evenly distributed inflow profile along the well
Delaying water breakthrough
Ideal for inflow optimization and production maximization
Suitable for vertical, deviated and horizontal completions
Openhole stand-alone completions
Using intelligent well technology for zonal isolation
Options
Multiple thread options to meet work string requirements
Sand Control engineering with Variperms proprietary semi-empirical slot width modelling program
Temperature sensing technology available for even steam control monitoring
Variperm’s proprietary ENC coating option available
