Evaluation of in-fill Well Placement and Optimization Using Experimental Design and Genetic Algorithm
(2014-12-12)
Determination of optimal well locations for infill drilling is a challenging task because engineering and geologic variables affecting reservoir performance are often nonlinearly correlated and have some degree of uncertainty ...
Mechanistic Models for Predicting Sand Production: a Case Study of Niger Delta Wells
(2014-12-12)
Niger Delta Province is predominantly a friable, unconsolidated sandstone terrain suggesting the expectation of sand production while developing hydrocarbon reserves in such terrain. In this study, a simple and easy-to-use ...
Development of Coning Correlations for Oil Rim Reservoirs using Experimental Design and Response Surface Methodology
(2014-12-20)
Proper management of thin oil rim reservoirs is required to maximize recovery and minimizes coning tendencies. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of reservoir and fluid properties on coning tendencies ...
Statistical Data-Driven Models for Forecasting Production Performance with Uncertainty Analysis
(2014-12-20)
Data-driven analytical models are important tools employed in the petroleum industry to forecast production rates and reserves of petroleum assets. Studies have shown that existing rate forecasting models project future ...
