Displacement efficiency defines the fraction of the initial pore-saturating fluid displaced in a the piston sweep by invaded fluid
E_D = 1- \frac{V_{FLUID, \ INITITAL} - V_{FLUID, \ INVADED}}{V_{FLUID, \ INITITAL}} |
Water-Oil Displacement Efficiency (EDow)
E_{Dow} = 1- \frac{V_{o, \ LEFT}}{V_{o, \ INITITAL}} = \frac{1-s_{wi}-s_{orw}}{1-s_{wi}} |
where s_{wi} – initial water in oil pay, s_{orw} – residual oil to water sweep.
Gas-Oil Displacement Efficiency (EDog)
(1) | E_{Dog} = 1- \frac{V_{o, \ LEFT}}{V_{o, \ INITITAL}} = \frac{1-s_{wi}-s_{org}}{1-s_{wi}} |
where s_{wi} – initial water in oil pay, s_{org} – residual oil to gas sweep.
