Critical Evaluation of Infill Well Placement and Optimization of Well Spacing Using the Particle Swarm Algorithm
(2016-06-16)Optimizing the placement of new wells and well spacing is a vital issue in oil field development. Drilling infill wells is one way to maximize the recovery of oil from reservoirs. The problem of infill well placement is ...

Integrating Petrophysical and Elastic Rock Properties Log- (VP / Vs Ratios) for Log-Facies Classification in Static Reservoir Modelling in the Kk Field, Niger Delta
(2011-12-12)As reservoirs become more complex and drilling operations more expensive, the need to reduce both inefficiencies and costs for constructing and analyzing high quality static models is essential. The effective and efficient ...

Waterflood Optimization using Streamline Simulation
(2011-12-12)Waterflooding is a secondary recovery process in which water compatible with the reservoir of interest is injected into the reservoir to displace residual oil. The goal of waterflood management is to maximize oil recovery ...
