PREDICTING PERFORMANCE
TM4112 Karakterisasi & Pemodelan Reservoir
Overview
Objectives and limitations of future performance
predictions
Types of future performance predictions
Data requirements for predicting future
performance
Transitioning from history to prediction
Case studies
Objectives of Future Performance
Predictions
Predict reservoir behavior
Estimate performance in new reservoirs
Optimize operating conditions
Maximize economic gain
Limitations of Future Performance
Predictions
The major limitation of future performance
predictions is the accuracy of the reservoir model.
A good history match does not guarantee an
accurate and representative performance
prediction.
Limitations of Future Performance
Predictions
This might occur if future performance predictions
represent operating scenarios that are dramatically
different from the historical operation of the field.
Examples include
Converting a depletion drive reservoir to
waterflooding, pressure maintenance or enhanced
recovery
Converting an old, depleted reservoir to gas storage
Types of Future Performance
Predictions
Common uses for future performance predictions
Depletion studies
Secondary or enhanced recovery studies
Lifting costs
Mechanical repairs
Mechanical configuration
