A more conditions in flowing injection and production wells can be obtained by approximating fluid flow in the wellbore as isenthalpic. This approximation is often referred to as "adiabatic;" it ignores heat transfer between the wellbore fluid and the surroundings, which is appropriate for longer-term flow behavior. The isenthalpic flow approximation accounts for temperature changes that arise from (de-)compression of fluids, the so-called Joule-Thomson effect (Katz and Lee, 1990). We have calculated pressure and temperature conditions in a static, isenthalpic column of CO2, using a similar recursion as for the constant- temperature wells considered above, except that now we account for temperature variation with depth as well, based on constant specific enthalpy. For an injection well, we perform a "top down" calculation starting from wellhead conditions of (T0, P0), corresponding to a specific enthalpy of h0 = h(T0, P0). At depth level n we have conditions of (Tn, Pn), from which we obtain ρn = ρ(Tn, Pn) and Pn+1 = Pn + ρng∆z, just as before. The temperature at level n+1 is obtained as Tn+1 = T(Pn+1, h0); the required inversion of the h = h(T, P) relationship is accomplished by Newtonian iteration, using Tn as a starting guess. Fig. 5 shows (T, P)-profiles in a 5000 m deep injection well for several different wellhead temperatures and pressures.

Temperature-pressure conditions for isenthalpic flow of CO2 in a 5000 m deep production well, for different downhole temperatures and pressures. Fig. 5 indicates that temperatures will tend to increase as CO2 is flowing down the injection well and attaining increasing pressures. The difference between downhole and wellhead temperatures is larger for smaller wellhead pressures, and increases strongly when wellhead temperatures are increased. For the lower wellhead temperature cases shown in Fig. 5, temperature changes versus depth are non- monotonic, with significant temperature decline at greater depth, especially when wellhead temperature is low and/or wellhead pressure is large. 220 240 Depth (m)
