The angle of inclination used to drill the well does not have to reach 90° for the well to be considered a horizontal well. Applications for horizontal wells include the exploitation of thin oil-rim reservoirs, avoidance of drawdown-related problems such as water/gas coning, and extension of wells by means of multiple drain holes.

Bottom water from a reservoir gets produced in a gas well. When natural gas production crosses the threshold or gas cap from an oil well. When water gets produced with bottom water drive from an oil well. Some of the factors which can help in reducing Coning are: Horizontal and vertical permeability. Proper distances are maintained between the rock perforation and well contact. Density differences between the liquids (oil, gas and water) should be maintained. This paper provides reservoir engineers with a general solution of the gas/water coning problem for horizontal wells. The objectives of this investigation include: (1) to determine the location of the stable water/gas cone, (2) to estimate the critical oil production rate, and (3) to find out the optimum placement of the horizontal wellbore so that the maximum critical oil rate can be obtained. breakthrough for water coning in vertical and horizontal wells. This work presents water-coning correlations for predicting the critical rate, water breakthrough time and WOR after breakthrough for vertical wells. Method Yang and Wattenbarger17 noticed that the relationship between the WOR plus a constant (c) and the breakthrough for water coning in vertical and horizontal wells. This work presents water-coning correlations for predicting the critical rate, water breakthrough time and WOR after breakthrough for vertical wells. Method Yang and Wattenbarger17 noticed that the relationship between the WOR plus a constant (c) and the Production with horizontal wells offers a new approach to reducing water-coning effects during oil production. This paper evaluates what effect water cresting under a horizontal well will have and determines the critical flow rate by fully analytic, two-dimensional (2D) methods developed in a vertical plane perpendicular to the axis of the horizontal well.
Cold flow oil wells often produce oil at relatively low rates due to their low viscosity. heater deployed in long horizontal cold flow wells can profitably increase oil Balanced mobility contrast results in less water coning; Easy implementation
