Impact
Study results indicate that the water saturation profile could be matched by a
capillary pressure curves, which honors the petrophysists results, while
initializes the model with equilibrium to ensure the runs are stable
The geomodel is built reasonably good to capture the special features, such
as shale or poor quality rock
Simulation results indicated that the rise in water cut was a result of cusping
of the underlying water. However, further increase in water-cut was
dependent on expansion of the surrounding aquifer associated with only a
slow increase in water-cut and good oil recovery effect on field production
performance.

Then, the calibrated model was used to evaluate the effect of infill drillings
and additional water injection on cumulative VRR and Recovery Factor
Impact
Simulation results indicated the water flood was not effective
A secondary gas cap was created throughout the reservoir during the
course of water flood
The largest uncertainty existed on the geological models which was subject
to further investigation
2015 IHS
24
Impact
The study showed that the reservoir fluid is an under-saturated
Fault tansmissibility (the fault is open or sealed) is the biggest uncertainty. It
has the largest effect on field production performance
The continuity of the sand body is another uncertain parameters, which
affect the well spacing and producer/injector locations
A development plan that met the economic requirements was developed
considering these 2 big uncertain parameters
2015 IHS
25
For the final well spacing and fracture parameters, effects of permeability
and other uncertain parameters were investigated
Impact
Simulation results suggested that a significant improvement can be obtained
by waterflooding
For the range of permeability, down spacing to 8 well per section will not
lead to interference, and the results are not very sensitive to the completion
parameters within the range of investigation
An optimal well spacing was recommended to the client with the
consideration of the risk factors, such as, matrix permeability, fracture half
length, and different completion techniques
2015 IHS
26
Impact
Simulation results indicate that most of the investigated scenario are not
favor for water flooding, only one scenario could result in an enhanced
recovery of 13 %
The advantage of water flooding over primary depletion is not strong due to
a gas cap exists
2015 IHS
27
Impact
Simulation results indicate that the high GOR in some well is caused by
secondary gas cap, of which, free gas was migrated to a structure high area
The recovery factor of the AS-IS case is 2.4 %, full primary development
5%, and recovery factor under water flood is about 7 %, which is not a good
candidate for water flooding

Onshore and near-shore

Carbonate Ramps (mixed

Transgressive Carbonate
Shelf Deposits
Carbonate-Evaporite
Sabkha Deposits
Tectonics
Fault throws can
compartmentalize pool
Severe tectonics can
enhance fracture
permeability but may destroy
seals
Heterogeneity
Increases uncertainty in rock
property values (A, h, , Sw)
and OOIP estimates.
Handled with Monte Carlo
Simulation.
Can affect well productivity
and may increase reservoir
compartmentalization.
Use logs, core and
geological analogs integrated
with well test methods (PTA
and RTA), analysis of well
production and material
balance to describe reservoir
internal geometry.
