Abstract: With a model of foam wellbore flow and a model of foam seepage flow,a mathematical model of foam plug removal is given.The model is solved with numerical method.Distributions of foam pressure,foam quality,foam density along wellbore and wellhead and bottom pressure are discussed.Furthermore,variation of bottom hole differential pressure is given as wellhead back pressure is fixed.It shows that as foam pressure and density increases,foam quality decreases with increase of well depth and bottom hole differential pressure declines.

Key words: foam plug removal, seepage flow, wellbore flow, mathematical model, bottomhole differential pressure
