COMPDATL

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserSCHEDULE

Part of the COMPDATX keyword family in the OPM Flow parser.

The COMPDATL keyword defines how a well in a Local Grid Refinement (“LGR”) is connected to the reservoir by declaring the LGR and defining or modifying existing well connections. Ideally the connections should be declared in the correct sequence, starting with the connection nearest the well head and then working along the wellbore towards the bottom or toe of the well, however this may not be possible or convenient, for example when connections are added or removed from a well during the simulation (see the COMPORD keyword in the SCHEDULE section for options regarding connection ordering).

This keyword is not supported by OPM Flow but would change the results if supported so the simulation will be stopped.

Notes:

The keyword is followed by up to MXCONS records as declared on the WELLDIMS keyword in the RUNSPEC section.

Each record is terminated by a “/” and the keyword should be terminated by a “/”.

Multiple grid block connections can be defined on one record for vertical wells by assigning different values to K1 and K2, for deviated and horizontal wells this may not be possible and therefore each grid block connection must be separately defined by using one record per connection, setting K1 equal to K2 in each record.

See also the WELSPECS keyword to define wells, the COMPIMB to reset the imbibition relative permeability table allocation, and the COMPORD to re-order the completions along the well trajectory. In addition, the COMPLUMP keyword groups well connections together to form well completions for a well. All the aforementioned keywords are described in the SCHEDULE section.

Note

The term well connection is used to describe individual connections from the wellbore to the reservoir grid, as opposed to well completions. A well completion is used to describe a set of connections, for example, a well may consist of several completions with each completion consisting of multiple connections.

Well OP01 has two sets of connections; the first one connects grid cells (14, 13, 20) to (14, 13, 56) to the well and is open to flow and the second connecting grid cells (14, 13, 75) to (14, 13, 100) is shut. Well OP02 has only one open connection from cells (35, 96, 75) to cells (35, 96, 100).
| Note The term well connection is used to describe individual connections from the wellbore to the reservoir grid, as opposed to well completions. A well completion is used to describe a set of connections, for example, a well may consist of several completions with each completion consisting of multiple connections. |
