Abstract

A method includes monitoring fluid production at a passive ICD installed in a base pipe in a wellbore. Responsive to monitored fluid production meeting one or more predetermined criteria, a remedial sleeve component is installed for the passive ICD. The remedial sleeve component includes: one or more ports which permit throughput of fluid into the base pipe; a closing portion which selectively opens and closes the one or more ports; and one or more sealing portions, which prevent a flow of fluid into the base pipe when the one or more ports are closed. The one or more ports are selectively opened or closed responsive to one or more additional predetermined criteria. A related system includes an actuation tool which deploys into the wellbore to actuate the closing portion to selectively open and close the one or more ports.
