Research abstract
THIS RESEARCH WILL INVESTIGATE A NOVEL HIGH THERMAL-INSULATING VALUE EVACUATED INJECTION TUBULAR. PRELIMINARY STUDIES INDICATE THAT THIS DESIGN WILL HAVE WELLBORE HEAT LOSSES 50% LESS THAN CURRENT STATE-OF-THE-ART VACUUM INSULATED TUBULARS, IMPROVED STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE, REDUCED OUTGASSING CONCERNS, AND LOWER COST. PHASE I WILL FOCUS ON PROOF OF CONCEPT; PHASE II WILL OPTIMIZE DESIGN VARIABLES.
