In-situ remediation of naturally occurring radioactive materials with high-permeability hydraulic fracturing
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
This thesis addresses the problem of removal of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials, NORM, and describes an effective alternative to the current treatment method for their removal. High-pen-meability fracturing, ...
Experimental study of zone isolation in horizontal wells using a new straddle-chemical-wellbore-plug system
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
This research constitutes part of phase II of a joint industry project aimed at investigating the feasibility of sealing off water and gas producing zones in a horizontal well. This research is a follow-up from an earlier ...
Transient pressure analysis for partially-penetrating wells in naturally-fractured reservoirs
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The major oil fields in Vietnam such as White Tiger and Rang Dong consist of fractured and weathered granite basement formation which are several thousand feet thick and are difficult to drill through. Consequently, these ...
Analysis of well test data from gas condensate reservoirs using single-phase dry gas methods: guidelines and examples
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The "problem" with modelling the performance of a well in a gas condensate reservoir system is that for a truly rigorous solution we require a compositional mass balance on the entire system. In particular, the pseudofunction ...
A reservoir management strategy for multilayered reservoirs in eastern Venezuela
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
A reservoir management strategy has been developed for a field located in eastern Venezuela. The field contains deep, high pressure, multilayer reservoirs. A thorough formation evaluation was accomplished using the log ...
Aerobic enhanced oil recovery: analysis of the mechanisms and a pilot study
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
The technique that uses microorganisms to improve oil production in petroleum reservoirs is known as microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Aerobic microbial enhanced oil recovery is a method which is based on stimulating ...
Productivity index and field behavior: a case study
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
This study is an investigation of different factors' phics. influence on the productivity index and its behavior. The objectives of this research are (1) to develop an overview of how different factors influence the ...
Different methodologies for obtaining a permeability distribution in the Misoa Formation, Venezuela
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
Two methodologies have been applied for evaluating formation permeability using log and core data. One methodology is based on a modified Kozeny-Carmen equation and the concept of mean hydraulic radius. The other methodology ...
A parameter sensitivity analysis using an EOS for optimal characterization of Cupiagua reservoir fluids
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
: : Issued also on microfiche from Lange Micrographics. Cupiagua field is located in the foothill belt of the Llanos basin in eastern Colombia. This field has large reserves of retrograde gas in the Mirador (Tertiary), ...
Analysis of the semianalytical method for matching aquifer influence functions using an analytical model
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
For a heterogeneous aquifer of unknown size and shape, ics. Aquifer Influence Functions (AIF) can be used to model the aquifer pressure behavior from field production and pressure data. Two methods have been used in the ...
