PanMesh™

PanMesh is a 3D finite element simulator which is tailored for the petroleum industry. It makes numerical simulation accessible to the well test analyst without requiring simulation expertise. It can be used to simulate bottom hole flowing pressures for history matching to a well test data set, or to design a well test. It uses numerical simulation which envelopes all existing analytical solutions and has potentially unlimited flexibility including three-dimensional models. Almost any geometry can be represented, encompassing multiple layers, irregular boundaries and multiple completions.

 

 

 

 

PanMesh software’s colour visualization facility tracks the pressure as it propagates through the reservoir, enabling the analyst to see how changes in the model structure correlate with changes in the pressure derivative.

 

The Challenge for Well Testing

· Geological models are getting more detailed and need to be validated

· Wells are becoming more complex

· Staff have little time in which to assimilate all the information available

· Conventional well test analysis is nearing its limits…

...whilst there are less people able to concentrate effort on understanding it.

The Solution is PanMesh Software

· Integrates the different disciplines:

· Complex geological models,

· Real life completion geometry.

· Enables teams to really understand how a well test is behaving—without being specialists

· Low costs:

· As quick and easy as conventional approach.

· Integrated with Weatherford’s PanSystem^® software—easy to use.

 

 

PanMesh has been developed over the last 15 years in collaboration with our channel partners, Weatherford International.
