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 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 above activities are WRM Activities are facilitated by four following 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:
...
| icon | false |
|---|
| 1 | Where to drill the |

...
| new well or side-track and how |
...
| to completion it ? |
| 2 |

...
| Which wells |
...
| to workover |
...
| and how ? |
| 3 |
|---|
...
| Which wells to change the flow rate and whether increase or decrease ? | |
| 4 |
...
| What fluid and at what time to inject ? |
...
| 5 | Is there a bottleneck in surface infrastructure and whether it needs update ? |
|---|
The answers to these questions are provided by playing the various scenarios over the calibrated full-field flow model.
