Feasibility Study of Rigless ESP Deployment in Multizone Wells: A Case Study of Mariann Field, Oriente Basin
Authors: Reinoso Bruno Stalin 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Electric submersible pumps (ESPs) assist most of the wells in the Oriente basin because of their capacity to lift large amounts of fluids, commonly in mature fields. However, this technology has a limited run life and is prone to intervention and operational challenges. This proposal aims to reduce intervention time and operating costs in multizone wells using rigless technology. Compared to traditional well interventions, rigless ESP permits a replacement operation in a shorter time, thus, reducing cost and deferred production.
The company completed a drilling campaign in the southern area of the Mariann field, obtaining outstanding results during the first months of production. The operator considered producing several reservoirs simultaneously using modern completion techniques as a viable alternative to accelerate production from these wells. The acquired experience in the first two wells completed with rigless ESP technology in the Tarapoa Block allowed us to illustrate the technical and economic advantages of combining rigless technology with intelligent completion systems. This paper describes the current state of this technology in Ecuador. It addresses several important aspects such as completion design, ESP selection, nodal analysis, and production planning from Lower U and Basal Tena reservoirs. Economic implications of this technology compared to dual completions are also discussed.
The candidate well was Mariann-56 due to its excellent reservoirs and remaining reserves. Based on production engineering and economic analysis, this study confirmed the feasibility of rigless multizone technology and improved the field's learning curve in multizone wells. The most significant results indicate that the company could reduce intervention time by more than ten days, representing an 80% reduction in time typically used for an ESP replacement using a workover rig. The operator could also optimize the project's economics by approximately USD 1.1 million in the first intervention related to deferred production and intervention costs. In addition, managing water cut using flow control valves maximizes well performance and provides better economic results.
The following paper consists of a complete engineering and economic study useful for the decision-making process that will serve as a guide to improving ESP cost efficiency in multizone completions.
A Revolutionary Packer Type Gas Separator that Involves Gravity Force to Exceed Traditional Gas Separation Efficiency in Oil and Gas Wells

Published: August 2022

Abstract
A revolutionary packer-type gas separator was designed to improve downhole gas separation efficiency. A deep analysis of gas separation methods was done to understand the process's nature and design a tool that could generate enhanced conditions for the gas separation phenomenon. During the research stages where data from Permian fields were analyzed to develop this new design of gas separator, the engineering team found three main challenges in downhole gas separation. First, the wells were converted from Electrical Submersible Pump (ESP) to Rod Pumps earlier, forcing the downhole gas separators to handle more production. Second, the small production casing size usually is 5.5" casing, which significantly reduces the annulus area, which is vital to get an effective gas separation efficiency, and third the gas slugging behavior, which in high proportion can lead to a gas lock-in sucker rod pump system. A packer-type gas separator was designed, built, and tested in multiple wells following the requirements and limitations. This gas separator has an outlet section of 1.89" O.D., which means the design maximizes the gas separation area where it really matters at the fluid outlet point. The revolutionary fluid exit slots design creates a linear flow path allowing gas to separate and flow upward the casing annulus in a natural way. Additionally, a valve below the cup packer was included to eliminate surging. This valve prevents surging by holding the fluid in the vertical section, thus avoiding backflow when the gas slug leaves liquids behind. A calculator was developed to estimate the gas separation efficiency downhole and compare the gas separation efficiency among different gas separators to evaluate the new design. After the implementation of this design in 5 wells, the results confirmed the high gas separation efficiency obtained with this new gas separator configuration. The novelty of this gas separator design is the outlet section that takes advantage of the gravity force to increase the gas separation efficiency without limiting the tensile strength of the Bottom Hole Assembly (BHA).
