Integrated Reservoir Characterisation: Case Study Results and Discussion on Interdiciplanary Teams
2009
Summary This study was completed as part of the capstone project for the University of Calgary’s Reservoir Characterisation Masters program. This is an interdisciplinary program that combines geology, geophysics and reservoir engineering. The project goal was to create a reservoir flow model from a real data set as a team. The team consisted of one member from each respective discipline. The study area was a small light oil carbonate reservoir in southeast Saskatchewan, Canada. The team was able to integrate the data set, which included: 3D seismic data, cores, field production and injection history, reservoir pressure data, and well logs. To accomplish this, the team effectively used seismic attributes to create a geological model, and then used a reservoir simulation program (CMG) to validate the geological model and history match over 40 years of field production and water flooding data. As well as a reservoir model, an additional outcome of the project was the learnings of an effective process of integrating these disciplines and getting people with different background to work together. Advantages and hinders of such collaborations are discussed and a list of prerequisites for an effective teamwork is suggested
