The Frisco City sandstone, North Frisco City (Paramount) field, Monroe County, Alabama: a case study of net pay and permeability anisotrophy evaluation related to geology
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Net pay and permeability anisotropy are important parameters when making hydrocarbon reserves estimates. This research focused on the exploration of methods for estimating the net pay and permeability anisotropy of a ...
Uncertainty analysis of well test data
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
During a well test a transient pressure response is created by a temporary change in production rate. The well response is usually monitored during a relatively short period of time, depending upon the test objectives. ...
Simulation studies of steam-propane injection for the Hamaca heavy oil field
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Simulation studies were performed to evaluate a novel technology, steam-propane injection, for the heavy Hamaca crude oil. The oil has a gravity of 9.3⁰API and a viscosity of 25,000 cp at 50⁰C. Two types of simulation ...
Optimizing well-stimulation treatment size using mixed integer linear programming
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This thesis presents a model for optimum sizing of well stimulation treatments. The optimization scheme is based on a combination of a well stimulation type selection and treatment size, therefore determining the optimum ...
A complete desktop phase-equilibria software package using object-oriented programming and the component object model
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Since the 1990s, object-oriented programming (OOP) has become the most popular technique among software developers to build medium- and large-scale computer applications. OOP is a programming paradigm used to solve the ...
Sustainable development through beneficial use of produced water for the oil and gas industry
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Management and disposal of produced water is one of the most important problems associated with oil and gas (O&G) production. O&G production operations generate large volumes of brine water along with the petroleum resource. ...
Screen and slotted liner horizontal completion: : correcting for wellbore pressure drop in the inflow performance relationships (IPR)
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This thesis presents the development of a correlation that will correct for error in a horizontal well's productivity calculations made by neglecting frictional pressure drop in the wellbore. The advantage of this method ...
Real time monitoring of multiple wells flowing under pseudosteady state condition by using Kalman filtering
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This work develops a method for the real time monitoring of well performance by using Kalman filtering. A system of two or more wells draining the same reservoir under pseudo steady state condition is monitored simultaneously ...
Permeability characterization and spatial modeling in complex reservoirs: use of tree classifiers and Markov Random Field
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This research presents two approaches for working with reservoir properties. The first is the application of decision tree classifiers for predicting partitioning or classifications based on well logs for improving the ...
New correlations for dew-point, specific gravity and producing yield for gas condensates
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This work presents four newly developed correlations to estimate dew-point pressure, current specific gravity and producing yield of gas condensate reservoirs. The first correlation may be used to predict the dew-point ...
