Abstract (en)

An inflow control device (26)for restricting flow into a passage of a tubular string in a wellbore includes at least two of a flow restrictor section (32), a fluid discriminator section (30) and a reverse flow preventer section (34), and the inflow control device is configured so that fluid which flows between an exterior of the tubular string and the passage also flows through each of the at least two sections. A well screen or liner includes a filter (20) or inlet portion and an inflow control device including a flow restrictor section, a fluid discriminator section, and a reverse flow preventer section, the inflow control device being configured so that fluid which flows through the filter portion also flows through the flow restrictor, fluid discriminator and reverse flow preventer sections.
