Improving dual-porosity simulation of waterflood performance in the naturally fractured Spraberry Trend area
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
In this thesis we have discussed the methods of analyzing the waterflood performance of the O'Daniel waterflood pilot in the Spraberry Trend Area with the help of reservoir simulation. Spraberry Trend Area is considered ...
Integrated reservoir study of the Appleton Oil Field, Escambia County, Alabama
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
The objective of this study is the development of a reservoir characterization of the Appleton Oil Field, Escambia County, Alabama, using petrophysical data, reservoir performance data and reservoir simulation. Appleton ...
Modeling techniques for simulating well behavior
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This thesis is a catalog of modeling techniques useful in simulating well behavior in certain types of reservoirs that are often encountered in petroleum reservoirs. Emphasis has been placed on techniques that can be used ...
Feasibility of waterflooding Soku E7000 gas-condensate reservoir
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
We performed a simple 3D compositional reservoir simulation study to examine the possibility of waterflooding the Soku E7 gas-condensate reservoir. This study shows that water injection results in higher condensate recovery ...
Rheological behavior of heavy oil and water mixtures at high pressures and high temperatures
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Over the past decade, heavy oil has been the focus of some important high-level activity in exploration and EOR research. In the practice of this industry, we are often faced with the problem of how to produce and transport ...
Velocity models, material balance and solution convergence in streamline-based simulation
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
This thesis addresses two important issues related to streamline-based flow simulation. The first issue deals with velocity models, specifically, how to determine the velocity models in various geometries in 2D and 3D ...
Laboratory tests to evaluate and study formation damage with low-density drill-in fluids (LDDIF) for horizontal well completions in low pressure and depleted reservoirs
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
The increasing number of open hole horizontal well completions in low-pressure and depleted reservoirs requires the use of non-damaging low-density drill-in fluids (LDDIF) to avoid formation damage and realize optimum well ...
Development of the optimized waterflooding pattern for the naturally fractured Spraberry Trend area
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
The Spraberry Trend area has produced oil since 1949 with a history of low productivity and unresponsive waterflooding within areas of interest in the field. It has been shown over the years that the conventional line drive ...
Impact of relative permeability models on fluid flow behavior for gas condensate reservoirs
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Accurate assessments of reserves and evaluation of productivity trends for gas condensate systems depend on a basic understanding of phase and fluid flow behavior. In gas condensate reservoirs, the gas flow depends on ...
A petrophysics and reservoir performance-based reservoir characterization of Womack Hill (Upper Smackover) Field (Alabama)
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Womack Hill is one of the 57 Smackover fields throughout the Gulf Coast region. Since its discovery in 1970, Womack Hill Field has produced 30 million STB from the Upper Smackover sequence of carbonate reservoirs. Since ...
