Abstract: According to the balance principle of funds and the factors of both technical and economic indices for horizontal well development, an optimized mathematic model for reasonable horizontal interval length in reservoir with bottom water is developed in this paper. This model can be used to get rational length and location of horizontal intervals,production pressure differentials and economic development period considering related technical and economic factors. The prepared modeling software can be well applied in optimization of real horizontal drilling in an oilfield. The results could help the specific design of horizontal well development in reservoir with bottom water.

Key words: bottom water reservoir, horizontal well, horizontal interval length, mathematic model
