MWell

MWell is a wellbore hydraulics simulator for calculating surface and/or bottomhole pressures, gravitational head, restrictions, transport times and hydraulic power requirements in the wellbore. Near wellbore and perforation pressure losses are also calculated to determine the bottomhole treating pressure in the formation.

MWell is essentially a subset of the MFrac simulator without the fracture simulation. MWell was designed for real-time analysis to calculate BHTP’s from surface conditions, but it can also be used as a design tool for determining wellbore pressure characteristics prior to treatment. MWell can simulate time dependent formation pressures with a user-specified minimum horizontal stress and a time dependent table of net pressures and BHFP’s.
