Overview

Dynamic simulation reveals gas-oil interactions in a mature reservoir, indicating potential for enhanced recovery.

Key Points

  • Accurate history matching of gas breakout improved reservoir volumetrics and production forecasts.
  • The model identified a representative Gas-Oil-Contact, enhancing the understanding of fluid dynamics.
  • Under a waterflooding scenario, around 5 MMstb of additional oil is estimated recoverable from re-completions.
  • Conflicting Gas-Down-To and Oil-Up-To data indicated reservoir complexity affecting recovery strategies.
