Estimate of hydrocarbon volume in stock-tank barrels per acre-feet
(stb/acre-ft) and in units of thousand stock-tank barrels (mstb)?
Volumetric Method
Av. Phi = 0.21, Swi = 0.22, Bo = 1.02
Volume in stock-tank barrels per acre-feet = 7758*0.21*(1-.22)/1.02 = 1245 Stb/acre.ft
Thickness = 50 ft
Area = 54360 acre
Volumetric Original Oil in Place = 7758*.21*54360*50*(1-0.22)/1.02
Volumetric Original Oil in Place = 546161727

Role of reservoir simulation throughout the reservoir life cycle in
this specific case
Estimate the Accurate Oil in Place and ensure volume that calculated from volumetric method.
The most suitable Water flooding model built on Reservoir Simulation and select optimum
starting time of water flooding.
By Reservoir Simulation, can built the most Accurate Reservoir Development Plan.
Role of dynamic tests and production history in characterizing a
fault and compartmental behavior of the reservoir
From Production History of field, ensure that faults is not completely sealed due to small
response from wells through fault but this communication not effective. In addition,
water flooding is not supported enough through faults due to partially sealed.
To ensure the transmissibility of fault by Dynamic Test through build up test or any other
test that prove these faults is completely sealed or not by derivative plot with Horner
plot.
Proposed location of the next three wells and their depths
Horizontal Drilling is not preferable for this type of reservoir due to heterogeneity and this type of facies that
have strikes of shale in all reservoir without bulk extended volume of sand. Therefore, drilling vertical wells is
better economically due to it is cheaper than horizontal well and can get gain faster.
Reservoir Simulation ensures that nine producers (9 wells) are needed to in addition to
injectors to cover these heterogeneous reservoir. The most recently three wells that added to
cover the ultimate recovery of reservoir with initial oil rates:

Exponential Method is more accurate due to heterogeneity of reservoir and bad facies will effect greatly on the
performance of water flooding.

Economic Evaluation for all wells in field development
The Best Field Development Plan for reservoir Management by the following plan:
Producers
Injectors
I-A & I-B & I-c are recommended to improve recovery efficiency.
