Abstract
Defining flow control device configurable positions include executing a reservoir simulator on a reservoir model to obtain a collection of flow control device settings defined in continuous space. For each number of multiple numbers of clusters, a cluster analysis is individually performed on the collection to obtain a set of flow control device configurable positions. The set includes the number of flow control device configurable positions and its corresponding inflow area or diameter. Performing the cluster analysis across the numbers generates multiple sets for the multiple numbers of clusters. The sets of flow control device configurable positions are compared to obtain a selected set of flow control device configurable positions, which is presented in a completion design.
