Waterflooding Cost and Efficiency Analysis for Irregular Grid Reservoir

TASK

Using CMG software and the given data provided in Appendix A i.e., field data for black oil
model, execute the following tasks. All results should be provided in graph and if any data are
not given, please use engineering skills to provide your hypothesis or assumption. Appendix A
should be mentioned in the text. The objective of this assignment is to simulate reservoir based
on waterflooding patterns starting from 1st January 2022 to obtain highest oil recovery after 10
years from data assigned in Appendix A by plotting oil recovery factor SCTR, oil production rate
SCTR and oil production cumulative SCTR along with cost of injection and production. This
assignment is to be carried out individually (100%). In completing the assignment, the
followings should be completed:

1) Assess the design analysis of complex engineering problem of the parameter involved to
generate cost and design for injection and production wells for waterflooding technique
starting from 1st January 2022 for homogeneous reservoir using CMG software.
2) Review the proposed innovative design solution in predicting the highest oil recovery
from the entire field; based on the waterflooding pattern to predict the oil recovery after
15 years.
3) Evaluate the design implementation of static model by placing different location of sink
wells when designing the reservoir in quick pattern grid.
4) Appraise the dynamic model in designing the reservoir using quick pattern grid that
leads to optimum recovery for all layer after implementation of waterflooding technique.
The results should be following the common oil field practice for the given case. SPE
standards and published articles, report, annual report can be used as reference.
5) Defend the innovative design solutions during tutor assessment.

Report Format:

Organise your work in a report detailing your findings. You must include all relevant calculation,
coding, illustration, graph or table to support your work. Refer to Appendix A for field data,
Appendix B for general requirement on report, Appendix C for guidelines on discussion,
conclusion and references, and Appendix D for marking scheme.

Assess the Design Analysis

Student should be able to assess the parameter involved to create the reservoir model by
implementing the waterflooding technique in term of cost and design by using optimum
production strategy for homogeneous system to solve the complex engineering problem using
CMG software starting from 15th August 2021. Student should be able to evaluate the basic cost
of injection and production.

Review the Proposed Innovative Design

Student should be able to review their innovative solution to predict the incremental of oil
recovery from the entire field based on proposed optimum production strategy. Student should be
able to list down all the justification involve in developing a certain scenario after 15 years.

Evaluate the Design Implementation

Student should be able to evaluate the design implementation based on their knowledge to create
static model. Student should able to place different location of sink and source wells when
designing the reservoir in quick pattern grid for waterflooding pattern. The outcome of model
creation using software is a static model. This part of assignment is marked based on static
model validity (15%) and location of wells (15%).

Appraise the Dynamic Model

Students should be able to appraise their results obtained by using suitable tools and technique
and it should be corresponding and representative. The result is dynamic model and leads to
highest oil production from each layer and entire field. It should be 3D view models submitted in
the report (only 3D model with complete-coloured version is accepted). Student should be able
to use quick pattern grid mode in designing the reservoir model.

Defend the Innovative Design Solutions

Students should be able to defend their individual work in term of methods employed and results
obtained. Tutor assessment will last approximately 15 – 20 minutes followed by a five-minute
session.
