Re-design Waterflood Pattern by Utilizing the Tracers Test Technique and Interwell Streamline Simulator

2019 
The objective of this study is to evaluate the optimum flow path of an existing pattern by utilizing a streamline simulation for the inter-well tracer test technique. Hopefully, the best scenario can be obtained for the new scheme waterflood to increase oil incremental. This study focuses on selecting the best scenario based on several parameters, including tracer time breakthrough, tracer production concentration, cumulative tracer production, and how the tracer flows path in the streamlined model. The analysis of four settings outcome will give different looks of the relationship between injection wells and production wells. The new flow path delivers a new scheme waterflood that may introduce into the field. The waterflood introduced couples years ago in the field. Many scenarios of waterflood schemes have been implemented to get the best incremental oil. The robust numerical model is one of effort to mimic the real field. Then, the tracer streamline is used to get a better picture of the reservoir in terms of transmissibility as well as the current water flow path with the existing parameters, such pressure, water cut, GOR, and etcetera. From the streamline model, it concludes the best position of the injector to have the prime oil cumulative. Subsequently, the continuous huff and puff method is acquainted with the specific condition into the field. The outcome exhibits the utmost oil incremental. The novelty of this method is the ability to solve the low sweep efficiency due to non- appropriate pattern design in reasonable understanding by utilizing a robust inter-well tracer test simulation and continued by a new arrangement of waterflood schemes.
