Evaluate | Q-Vak Production Evaluation

  • The Q-Vak is a production evaluation system deployed with concentric coiled tubing, that includes an engineered jet pump that vacuums away wellbore materials and captures continuous inflow data.
  • A recorder in the BHA, or multiple recorders installed with inflatable multi-set straddle packer, captures BHP and BHT.
  • At surface, a Quantum technician gathers oil, water and solids cuts for reporting to generate interval-specific inflow data.

How it works

  1. Concentric coiled tubing is conveyed downhole with standard coiled tubing equipment.
  2. When at desired depth packers are set, the pumping unit is brought up to operational pressure and rates to activate the Q-Vak.
  3. The Venturi creates a pressure draw down at the BHA then artificially lifts the wellbore materials to surface inside the outer coil and establishes inflow from the reservoir.
  4. At surface, a flow meter dissects return-flow into net oil, water, gas and solids rates. A Quantum Technician is onsite to monitor performance, sample returns and gather data.
  5. Concentric coiled tubing and BHA is retrieved to complete the operation.
  6. Quantum thoroughly analyzes the resulting reservoir data and delivers a final report after the site operation.
