A set of Subsurface Production Operational activities towards execution of Field Development Plan.
The key instrument of WRM is Nodal Analysis which leads to a proper selection of WRM Activities.
The WRM Activities are usually classified by the purpose:
Operational HSE | Production acceleration | Production Cost | Sweep efficiency |
---|
Infill drilling | Production targets | designing & maintaining integrity | designing & maintaining integrity | Increasing |
---|
(Drilling) | Optimising (Conformance control) | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Infill drilling | Side-tracks | Flow Stimulation | Flow Shut-off |
EOR |
The WRM Activities are facilitated by following The above activities are further classified into four execution mechanisms:
Subsurface | Surface | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Drilling & Completion | Workovers |
Wireline |
---|
facilities and procedures |
---|
Prioritizing of WRM Activities is based on technical feasibility and economics, provided by WRM Activity Value @model.
This particularly leads to the four following major asset challenges:

The answers to these questions are provided by playing the various scenarios over the calibrated full-field flow model.
