    Abstract
    MPD technique manages drilling pressure to keep bottom hole Pressure balanced in the well. The objective to this studs, is to approximate the well pressure to formation pressure to prevent entry of fluid into the well. MPD is a new method drilling in which, driller controls the annulus pressure in order prevent drilling problems. the circulating fluids system employed by MPD technology is more akin to that of a pressure vessel. In this thesis, using in laboratory-made machine, reacts with sudden changes in pressure at the bottom hole in the shortest possible time. Basically, this system is a system where well bore pressure management is obtained by adjusting the pressures along the well bore...

    Abstract
    The intelligent well technology provides the capability to remotely monitor and control multiple production zones using Inflow Control Valves (ICV) installed on the production tubing. Employing intelligent completions, the objective might be to allocate the inflow rates for each zone such that the objective function (cumulative oil or net present value of the well) is maximized. In this paper, a method for determining the optimized application of different intelligent well control strategies is presented. The optimization algorithm, which is based on trust region method, has been coupled with a commercial flow simulator and applied to a conceptual sandstone thin oil rim model containing a...
