Well Designer

Well Modelling for Production Optimisation & Flow Analysis

Design, simulate and optimise well performance with Well Designer — multiphase flow, smart completions, gas lift and flow assurance in one tool.

Design, Model and Optimise Well Performance

tNavigator’s Well Designer is well modelling software that lets engineers design, simulate and optimise well performance across a range of production scenarios. It supports advanced multiphase flow modelling, completion design and production optimisation, helping teams maximise efficiency and improve recovery.

Optimise Well Performance Across the Full Production Lifecycle

Well Designer provides a comprehensive toolkit for analysing well behaviour, designing completions and optimising production strategies. From initial well design through to production optimisation, it enables accurate modelling of complex well systems and supports better decision-making.


Multisegmented Well Modelling

Accurately represent complex well structures, including multilateral wells and crossflows, improving model realism and predictive accuracy.

Smart Completion Design

Design and compare completion strategies using intuitive tools, optimising inflow control and production performance.

Multiphase Flow and Corrosion Analysis

Simulate pressure drops, flow behaviour and corrosion risks using industry-standard correlations to ensure safe and efficient operations.


Well Designer supports a wide range of well and production engineering workflows:

  • Multiphase flow modelling – simulate fluid flow within wells under varying conditions.
  • Multisegmented well modelling – model complex well geometries, including multilateral wells.
  • Gas lift design and optimisation – design and evaluate gas lift systems.
  • Smart completion modelling – simulate and optimise inflow control devices (ICDs and AICDs).
  • VFP table generation – generate vertical flow performance tables for simulation workflows.
  • Corrosion and flow assurance analysis – evaluate pressure drops, corrosion rates and operational risks.
  • Well performance optimisation – test production strategies and improve efficiency.

Well Designer is fully integrated within the tNavigator platform:

  • Connect with reservoir simulation models for dynamic production analysis.
  • Integrate with Network Designer for surface system optimisation.
  • Use PVT Designer for accurate fluid property inputs.
