COMPLETIONS
What is a Completion?
The design, selection and installation of tubular, tools and
equipment, in the wellbore, for the purpose of conveying,
pumping or controlling production (or injection) fluids
Three Basic Functions of a completion
Let reservoir fluids into the well, from where it can then flow or be
pumped to the surface.

THE RESERVOIR
Henry Darcy
In 1856 Darcy (1803-1858) performed experiments for the design of
sand filters for water purification in France
Henry Darcy's law of fluid flow through porous media forms the basis
of hydrogeology.
Experiments on water flow through sand led Darcy to formulate the
empirical law that he published in1856 as an appendix to his book Les
Fontaines publiques de la ville de Dijon.
