Abstract:
Systems and methods for optimizing oil recovery and reducing water production in smart wells using integrated reactive/proactive optimization to determine optimal downhole valve settings.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for estimating well production performance in fractured reservoir systems using real-time down-hole temperature and stress information from advanced monitoring techniques.
Abstract:
A method and non-transitory program carrier device tangibly carrying computer executable instructions for adjusting downhole valve settings in order to optimize oil recovery and reduce water production from a well. The method and non-transitory program carrier device are particularly advantageous in wells with intelligent completions that are often referred to as smart wells. In the oil and gas industry, an Internal Control Valve (ICV) is an important tool for both reactive and proactive approaches to adjust ICV settings to improve oil recovery.
Abstract:
A system for Water-Alternating-Gas (WAG) injection for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) includes a mechanical well configured to enable multi-point selective injection for water and gas. The system further includes an optimization engine configured to calculate reservoir flow dynamics and selectively inject water and gas via the mechanical well according to reservoir flow dynamics.
