Determining Individual Characteristics of a Two-Layered Reservoir using the Tds Technique
(2017-12-12)The first part of this study discussed in details the two major model that was developed for the study of a multilayer reservoir system. They are the Dual permeability model proposed by Bourdet and the semipermeability ...

Diagnosis of Water Production using Artificial Neural Network Models
(2017-12-16)A data-driven approach to solving the problem of excess water production was the focus of this study. In this research, several reservoir models were simulated for 26 years, and data obtained after simulation was used to ...

Effects of Near Wellbore and Reservoir Fluid Compositional Changes on Condensate Banking
(2017-12-12)Gas condensate reservoirs are initially discovered as single-phase gas reservoirs. As the reservoir is produced below the fluid dew-point pressure, an increase in condensate saturation in the near wellbore region occur ...

Evaluation of Optimal Designs for Infill Well Drilling for Water Flood Systems
(2017-12-16)One of the ways of maximizing recovery from a reservoir is by drilling infill wells. Infill well placement is challenging because many well scenarios must be evaluated when undertaking the optimization program and very ...

Numerical Simulation of Enhanced Oil Recovery using a Gum Arabic Polymer
(2017-11-23)Oil reserves are now located in hard-to-reach locations. This, combined with low oil prices, makes drilling for new reserves very expensive and risky. Enhanced oil recovery, which increases the amount of oil that can be ...

Sour Gas Injection to Enhance Oil Recovery
(2017-02-13)Proper handling of sour gas produced is crucial to the development of sour reservoirs. Over years of research and practice, many methods of sour gas processing have been developed from the solid storage of sulfur to ...
