Waterflood & Gas Injection
To outline the comprehensive scope for the waterflood and gas injection projects, detailed analysis will be prepared and compared from both production and economic perspectives.
The following key actions are undertaken within the project:
- Identification of injector candidates, including cross-sections, target injection layers, and patterns
- Development of detailed work-over programs for the selected injector candidates
- Determination of locations and number of new infill wells (producers or injectors) necessary for the flooding project
- Establishment of perforation policies for offset producers
- Analysis of early gas or water breakthrough effects and strategies to minimize them
- Calculation of optimum injection rates and identification of best injection timing
- Evaluation and determination of reservoir flow barriers in undrained regions
- Preparation of production forecasts for waterflooding and gas injection projects as separate scenarios
- Assessment of current and projected oil and water saturation pressures and recovery factors
- Estimation of financial risks under worst-case, base-case, and most-likely scenarios
These actions ensure a thorough evaluation and successful implementation of the projects with a focus on maximizing recovery efficiency and minimizing risks.
