EquiFlow® Autonomous ICDTECHNOLOGY BRIEF Brandon Least Screens Product Champion
What is it? • EquiFlow® Autonomous ICD (AICD) is Halliburton’s next generation inflow control device (ICD) which utilizes innovative dynamic fluid technology to differentiate between fluids flowing through the device in order to maximize oil production.
How it will Benefit you • The AICD differentiates between fluids. Water and gas, follow more restrictive flow path than oil which flows relatively easily. When several AICDs are installed in a well, water production through any particular zone is greatly restricted allowing the other zones to continue producing oil at a high rate.
Why it will Help • AICD works like a passive ICD during oil production, yet restricts the production of water and gas at breakthrough to minimize water and gas cuts dramatically.
Unique Features • Functions as a traditional passive ICD during oil production. • Greatly restricts unwanted water or gas production at the event of breakthrough • Delivered with all common screen configurations. • NOspecialized installation equipment or procedures • NO control lines • Contains NO moving parts • Does NOT require downhole orientation • Erosion resistant
Where it Will Work • The AICD can maximize hydrocarbon production in any reservoir with unwanted fluid production. The AICD delays breakthrough of unwanted fluids, allowing oil production to be maximized.
Challenges Addressed • The Autonomous ICD functions as a traditional passive ICD during oil production, balancing flow across the completion. Upon water or gas breakthrough those fluids are autonomously restricted. AICD tools are available for oil viscosities of 0.3 cP and higher.
