ICV 1
ICV 1 : (n). Well Completions. Abbreviation for inflow control valve, an active component installed as part of a well completion to partially or completely choke flow into a well. Inflow control valves can be installed along the reservoir section of the completion, with each device typically separated from the next via a packer. Each ICV can be controlled from the surface to maintain flow conformance and, as the reservoir depletes, to stop unwanted fluids from entering the wellbore. A permanent downhole cable provides electric and hydraulic conduits to relay commands from the surface to the ICV
