The branch well G8-33-H1Z is the first fishbone horizontal well of Daqing. The fishbone horizontal well is one type of the branch horizontal wells, which drilling again two or more branch holes in the horizontal section of the horizontal well. This well lies in G21 block where is near to the west of Daqing oilfield Changyuan area and the northeast of G20 of the north Gaotaizi oilfield. The purpose of the drilling is using branch horizontal well to control more areal reserves and increasing drainable area to improve well production. This technique can improve the economic benefit of oilfield development, which saves drilling investment, makes full use of the upper borehole to improve the comprehensive exploitation degree of the reservoir and achieves highly efficient development using less well. This well has two horizontal branches, and puts ‘trunk-branch-trunk-branch’ into effect while drilling. The first branch designed horizontal length 150m. The second branch designed horizontal length 150m. This paper introduced the tracing with drilling process of Daqing first fishbone horizontal well, and also described the complex situations and the treatment methods while drilling wellbore trajectory and constructing well and the development effect. Finally some suggestions were put forward about tracing with drilling in fishbone horizontal well.

Horizontal well application to mitigate water coning problems have gained wide industry acceptance. However, horizontal wells themselves have not been free from water coning (cresting) problems. A major challenge before industry operators is the effective modeling of water crest development in horizontal wells. More often, mathematical models developed for fluid flow in horizontal pipes have been adopted for modeling horizontal well performance but these have been largely inadequate. This paper presents a more encompassing tool for evaluating the performance of horizontal wells with bottom water drive which incorporates all the effects of perforations, 2-phase liquid-liquid flow and axial influx of fluid into the wellbore. A new value of equivalent pipe roughness function is developed for use in the numerical simulators to accommodate the inadequacies of the current commercial softwares. The empirical results using published data from the North Sea indicate a more practical representation of the phenomenon of water cresting in horizontal wells and the level of severity. Two major factors affected by the application of the new approach are; a reduction in the time to water breakthrough as previously predicted by analytical tools, and an effective representation of the geometry of water cresting in horizontal wells similar to field experiences. The paper also shows that direct application of horizontal pipe models in horizontal well is grossly inadequate. Finally it shows use of horizontal wells in the development of reservoirs underlain by water needs adequate evaluation.
