Design and Optimize the Branch Pattern of Herringbone Well

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article analyzes the influence of different branch number, branch length, branch angle on the productivity of the herringbone well. It also summarizes the strongest influence parameters and the weakest influence parameters. Provide theoretical guidance for the formulation of herringbone well development plan. The results show that the maximum effect parameter is branch length, then branch number and branch angle the weakest.
