Abstract
A well bore system comprising: a well bore ( 110 ); a tubular ( 130 ) disposed within the well bore ( 110 ), wherein the tubular ( 130 ) and the well bore ( 110 ) define an annulus; a first conduit ( 140 ) disposed within the tubular ( 130 ); and a second conduit ( 160 ) disposed within the annulus and associated methods.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A well bore system, comprising: a well bore penetrating a formation; a casing lining the well bore, said casing comprising a plurality of perforations; a tubular disposed within the casing, wherein the tubular and casing define an annulus; a first conduit disposed within the tubular; and a second conduit disposed within the annulus wherein at least one of said first conduit and said second conduit extends to below the plurality of perforations.
2 . (canceled)
3 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the first conduit comprises one or more branches.
4 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the first conduit comprises one or more check valves.
5 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the second conduit comprises one or more branches.
6 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the first conduit comprises one or more branches and the second conduit comprises one or more branches.
7 . The well bore system of claim 1 , further comprising one or more screens.
8 . The well bore system of claim 7 , wherein the first conduit comprises one or more openings and the one or more openings are adjacent to the one or more screens.
9 . The well bore system of claim 1 , further comprising one or more gravel packs.
10 . The well bore system of claim 1 , further comprising an injection port.
11 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the first conduit and the second conduit are fluidly connected to a single flow line.
12 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the first conduit and the second conduit are fluidly connected to separate flow lines.
13 . (canceled)
14 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the second conduit comprises one or more openings and the one or more openings are adjacent to the one or more perforations.
15 . A method comprising: providing a well bore system, wherein the well bore system comprises a well bore penetrating a formation; a casing lining the well bore, said casing comprising a plurality of perforations; a tubular disposed within the casing, wherein the tubular and the casing define an annulus; a first conduit disposed within the tubular; and a second conduit disposed within the annulus wherein at least one of said first conduit and said second conduit extends to below the plurality of perforations; and injecting water into the well bore system through at least one of the first and second conduits.
16 . (canceled)
17 . The method of claim 15 , wherein a portion of the annulus and/or the tubular is filled with formation sand.
18 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising allowing formation sand to enter into at least one of the annulus and the tubular.
19 . (canceled)
20 . The method of claim 15 , wherein injecting water into the well bore system comprises injecting water into at least one of the first conduit and the second conduit.
21 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the well bore system is a waterflood injection well.
22 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the plurality of perforations are in a zone of unconsolidated sand in the formation.
23 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the well bore system is a waterflood injection well.
24 . The well bore system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of perforations are in a zone of unconsolidated sand in the formation.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
