RESERVOIR PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS USING MATERIAL BALANCE METHOD IN GAS FIELD

The RF reservoir is a dry gas reservoir located in Northeast java offshore that has been produced since 2018.  The RF reservoir has produced 2 wells with cumulative production until December 2019 is 31.83 BSCF. In January 2018 the gas production rate from the two wells was 36 MMSCFD and the reservoir pressure at the beginning of production was 2449.5 psia, peak production occurred in April 2019 with a gas flow rate of 98 MMSCFD but in December 2019 the gas production rate from both wells decreased to 30 MMSCFD with reservoir pressure decreased to 1607.8 psia. Changes in gas flow rate and pressure in the RF reservoir will affect changes in reservoir performance, so it is necessary to analyze reservoir performance to determine reservoir performance in the future with the material balance method. Based on the results the initial gas in place (IGIP) is 80.08 BSCF. The drive mechanism worked on the RF reservoir until December 2019 was a depletion drive with a recovery factor up to 88% and a current recovery factor (CRF) is 40%. The remaining gas reserves in December 2019 is 39 BSCF and the reservoir will be made a production prediction until December 2032. Based on production predictions of the four scenarios, scenario 2 was chosen as the best scenario to develop the RF reservoir with a cumulative production is 66.1 BSCF and a recovery factor of 82.6%.
