A downhole electrical power generation device is provided that includes at least one magnetic element, an electrically conductive element, and a member configured to be positioned within downhole fluid and to vibrate when the downhole fluid flows across a surface of the member. One of the magnetic element and the electrically conductive element is positioned on the member, and the other is configured to be positioned such that the electrically conductive element is located in a magnetic field produced by the at least one magnetic element to generate electrical power on vibration of the member. A method of generating electrical power downhole is further provided.

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for estimating well interference on a target well from other potential wells in a subsurface volume of interest are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may include: obtaining well implementation data for the target well and the other potential wells; obtaining estimated reservoir volumes as a function of position; generating well overlap between the target well and the other potential wells; generating extraction interference probabilities; generating a representation of a well layout as a function of position in the subsurface volume of interest; and displaying the representation.

The present disclosure provides an edge and bottom water invasion simulation apparatus and method, a storage medium, and a product. A controller controls an inert gas to be injected into a first intermediate container, and stops the injection. The controller controls formation water to be injected into the first intermediate container, and stops the injection. The controller controls the first intermediate container to be communicated with a core holder, and adjusts a pressure of a back pressure valve, so that the formation water enters a core to simulate edge and bottom water invasion. In the present disclosure, by adding the inert gas and the formation water to the intermediate container, an infinite edge and bottom water with sufficient energy at an early stage of a water invasion and a limited edge and bottom water with lower energy at a later stage of the water invasion can be effectively simulated.

A method of performing an intervention operation at a multilateral well includes deploying a directional guide to an axial position within the multilateral well at which a lateral section of the multilateral well is located, installing a main body of the directional guide to an inner surface profile arranged along a casing that surrounds the directional guide at the axial position, closing a bore that passes through the main body along an elongate axis of the main body, deflecting an intervention assembly along a guide surface of the main body into the lateral section, and controlling the intervention assembly to perform the intervention operation within the lateral section.

A device and a method for gas-water-sand separation and measurement during a simulated exploitation of natural gas hydrates are disclosed. The device includes a natural gas hydrate formation and dissociation system and a filtering unit. The natural gas hydrate formation and dissociation system includes a compressed air pump, a reactor, and a water-bath temperature regulating unit. The filtering unit includes a kettle body, wherein an inlet end of the kettle body is connected to the sand-control liner zone, an outlet end of the kettle body is connected to a water-collecting container, and a plurality of filtering layers are disposed inside the kettle body from the inlet end to the outlet end. The method is conducted using the device. The device and the method realize the gas-water-sand separation and measurement of produced gas-water-sand mixture during a simulative exploitation process, allowing for a direct inspection on a sand production and sand control.

In one example, a method of designing a drill bit comprises obtaining a baseline orientation of a shaped cutter with respect to a bit body. The shaped cutter includes a shaped cutting element secured to a substrate. The baseline orientation is defined, at least in part, with respect to an rotational position of the shaped cutting element about a longitudinal axis of the shaped cutter. A wear imbalance is determined between opposing portions of the shaped cutting element at the baseline orientation. An adjusted orientation of the shaped cutter is generated having a different rotational position of the shaped cutting element about the cutter axis expected to reduce the wear imbalance.
