Multilayer well BC to simulate a horizontal well

I'm interested in modeling a horizontal well; is it reasonable/possible to do this by selecting the edges in a slice that correspond to the location of the well and assigning them a multilayer well boundary condition, even though it's not passing through layers?

Thanks!

Sure, it is reasonable to assign horizontal wells if it represents the setting of your model domain. I agree, the name Multilayer Well might be misleading in this context.

Excellent, thanks for the prompt response!
