Abstract

A multi feedzone wellbore simulator has been developed. This computer code is quite general as it enables on to compute downhole conditions in wells with an arbitrary number of feedzones during discharge or injection. The simulator is applied to flowing pressure and temperature surveys from various wells in Mexico, Iceland, and Kenya. It is demonstrated that such a model can be used to estimate flow rates and enthalpies of individual feedzones.
