Well Level Reservoir Management

New Wells
Existing Wells (Workover)
Well location (well spacing) Is it well integrity challenge OR reservoir problem?

Well Type Well integrity problem examples:


1 –Vertical / slanted wells 1- Casing leaks
2- Reentry wells (length of horizontal section) 2- Damage around wellbore
3-Horizontal wells (length of horizontal section) (scale problem/ skin)
3- Perforated interval ?
Calculation of PI (PI ratio) to estimate oil rate 4- Artificial lift failure
(pump change out)
Tools: 5- Water/gas conning (rate control)
1- Reservoir Model ? 6- Water/gas shut off (re-perforations)
2- Surrounding well performance
3- Geological layers properties (target zone) Reservoir challenges example:
4- Seismic/logs fault interpretation 1- Limited pressure support (Aquifer)
Implementation: 2- Poor reservoir connectivity
1- Drilling procedure (drilling fluids/minimize damage) 3- Poor rock properties
2- Well completion (OH /slotted linear/perforated CH) 4- Fractured reservoir
3- Surface facilities (tie-ups nearest GC) 5- unfavorable oil mobility (heavy oil)
