TubeFlow PIC 
Wellbore Intervention, Drilling, and Completions Software

TubeFlow PIC is a transient flow simulator that can be used to model well intervention operations with coiled tubing, drill string, and wireline. Applications that can be modeled using TubeFlow PIC are listed below:

  • easy-to-use, quick calculations, sensitivity analysis 
  • project configuration includes import/export/email features 
  • English, SI, customizable units
  • non-Newtonian and multiphase flow modeling with heat transfer
  • multicomponent modeling and PVT properties through seamless integration with FluidProps
  • graphical capabilities include save and compare options
  • reporting includes printing to MS Word and exporting data to MS Excel

Features

Fluid Systems
In TubeFlow PIC, a list of pre-configured fluids that commonly flow in wellbores is provided for convenience and ease of use. Moreover, flexibility exists to create user-defined fluids for use in a particular project. Fluid systems that can be modeled include, but are not limited to:

Wellbore Configuration
TubeFlow PIC provides a database of standard pipe sizes to configure well tubulars, coiled tubing, and drill string.

Gravel Pack
Design gravel pack operations for sand control applications in poorly consolidated formations.

  • slurry volume requirements 
  • alpha - beta wave simulations
  • alternate path technology - shunt tubes
  • beta - wave breaker simulations

Wellbore Cleanout
Model proppant cleanout or fill removal in wells using coiled tubing.

  • minimum flowrate requirements 
  • aid in fluid selection
  • bed formation in deviated wells

Torque and Drag
Model force analysis on coiled tubing, drill string, and wireline during well intervention.

  • buckling behavoir - sinusoidal, helical, and lockup limit  
  • maximum set-down weight, overpull
  • minimum tractor pull

Tubing Movement
Determine length of seals required by accounting for tubing movement during production and injection operations.

  • pipe length and force changes  
  • tubing stress and packer-to-tubing force
  • maximum wireline tool passage length

Production System Analysis
Perform an inflow/outflow analysis in oil and gas wells and design an optimum tubing size.

  • Velocity or siphon string design  
  • nodal analysis and multiphase flow

Fluid Displacement
Model transient displacement of drilling mud with completion brine and weighted spacers in wellbore cleaning operations.

  • acidizing, gravel packing, and workover operations  
  • transient pump pressure and bottomhole pressure variations

Drilling
Simulate drilling jobs with coiled tubing and jointed pipe.

  • underbalanced and managed pressure drilling (UBD,MPD) 
  • parasitic gas injection
  • cuttings transport ratio, slip velocity, bed formation
  • steam injection 
  • black oil production
  • multiple reservoir zones - comingled production
  • coiled tubing and drill string hydraulics - forward and reverse circulation

Hydraulics
Model production, injection, circulation operations with or without reservoir interaction.

  • Well module - complex well configurations  
  • survey import/export
