ABSTRACT:
Methods are described for determining or estimating a wellbore schematic, one embodiment comprising running one or more measured distances of coiled tubing into a wellbore while pumping a fluid at varying flow rates through the coiled tubing, and calculating true vertical depth of the wellbore using pressure and flow rate data of the fluid. This abstract allows a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the disclosure. It may not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. 37 CFR 1.72(b).
