Safety | Sweep efficiency | Displacement efficiency | Production acceleration | Production Cost | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Increasing well-reservoir contact | Optimising well-reservoir contact (Conformance control) | Flowrates | Infill drilling | Completion\Lift design & integrity | ||||
New wells | Side-tracks | Flow Stimulation | Flow Shut-off | EOR | Flowrates |
The above activities are facilitated by four execution mechanisms:
Subsurface | Surface | ||
---|---|---|---|
Drilling & Completion | Workover & Recompletion | Production/injection Rate Optimisation | EOR flooding facilities and procedures |
This leads to the four major asset challenges:
The answers to these questions are provided by playing the various scenarios over the calibrated full-field flow model.
