Abstract
A method, system, and taggants (tracers) for quantifying zonal flow in a multi-lateral well having a wellbore with a first lateral and second lateral. The technique includes flowing first produced fluid from a formation via the first lateral into production tubing providing a first taggant through a first dosing tubing to the first lateral, and flowing second produced fluid from the formation via the second lateral into the production tubing and providing a second taggant through a second dosing tubing to the second lateral. A produced stream having the first produced fluid and the second produced fluid flows uphole through the production tubing and discharges from the wellbore. The produced stream may be analyzed to measure an amount of the first taggant in the produced stream and an amount of the second taggant in the produced stream.
