The document discusses selecting a tubing diameter for a well based on flowrate sensitivity analysis. It first determined that a liner was not suitable because it did not provide an adjustable flowrate to meet demand. Sensitivity analyses were then shown for tubing diameters of 1.5 inches, 2.5 inches, and 3.5 inches at varying node pressures. Based on the results, a 2.5-inch tubing diameter was selected as most suitable since it provided adjustable and economic flowrates.

First I calculated Why Liner is not suitable for this operation
If I set liner, then downhole equipment figure come as
Ipr curve – I Set first node pressure as 1000, 1600, 2200 and 2800 psia but when I set liner I did not get any flowrate which is adjustable with my demand. Comment: Above those data set I came at conclusion that this well is not suitable for using liner instead of tubing. Now select which tube diameter I should use in this well. As demand is limited------

Here I have sensitivity analysis for select tubing diameter. At 1000 psig first node pressure 1.5 inch diameter gives 6.94 MMscf/d 2.5 inch diameter gives 27.54 MMscf/d 3.5 inch diameter gives 43.2 MMscf/d For 1600 psig node pressure 1.5 inch gives 4.7 MMscf/d 2.5 inch gives 23 MMscf/d 3.5 inch gives 37.3 MMscf/d At 2200 psig 2.5 inch gives 6.85 MMscf/d And 3.5 inch gives 24.2 MMscf/d Comment: So among all tubing diameter analysis I choose 2.5-inch diameter. I think which is suitable for this well
