EOR technologies in general and surfactant-polymer flooding (SP) in particular is considered as a tertiary method for redevelopment of mature oil fields in Western Siberia, with potential to increase oil recovery to 60-70% OOIP. The selection of effective surfactant blend and a polymer for SP flooding a complex and multi-stage process. The selected SP compositions were tested at Kholmogorskoye oilfield in September-December 2020. Two single well tests with partitioning chemical tracers (SWCTT) and the injectivity test were performed. The surfactant and the polymer for chemical EOR were selecting during laboratory studies. Thermal stability, phase behavior, interfacial tension and rheology of SP formulation were investigated, then a prospective chemical design was developed. Filtration experiments were carried out for optimization of slugs and concentrations. Then SWCTT was used to evaluated residual oil saturation after water flooding and after implementation of chemical EOR in the near wellbore areas. The difference between the obtained values is a measure of the efficiency of surfactant-polymer flooding. Pandemic restriction shifted SWCTT to the period when temperature dropped below zero and suitable for winter conditions equipment was required. Two SWCTT were conducted with same surfactant, but different design of slugs in order to prove technical and economic models of SP-flooding. Long-term polymer injectivity was accessed at the third well. Oil saturation of sandstone reservoir after the injection of a surfactant-polymer solution was reduced about 10% points which is around one third of the residual oil after water flooding. Results were compared with other available data such as well logging, lab core flooding experiments, and hydrodynamic simulation. Modeling of SWCTT is ongoing, current interpretation confirms the increase the oil recovery factor after SP-flooding up to 20-25%, which is a promising result. Temperature model of the bottom hole zone was created and verified. The model predicts that temperature of those zones essentially below that average in the reservoir, which is important for interpretation of tracer test and surfactant efficiency. The tested surfactant showed an acceptable efficiency at under-optimum conditions, which is favorable for application of the SP formulation for neighboring field and layers with different reservoir temperatures, but similar water composition. In general, the results of the conducted field tests correlate with the results of the core experiments for the selected surfactant
一般来说,EOR技术,特别是表面活性剂聚合物驱(SP),被认为是西西伯利亚成熟油田再开发的第三种方法,有可能将石油采收率提高到60-70% OOIP。SP驱用有效表面活性剂共混物和聚合物的选择是一个复杂的多阶段过程。2020年9月至12月,在Kholmogorskoye油田对选定的SP成分进行了测试。进行了两次单井测试,分别使用了化学示踪剂(SWCTT)和注入能力测试。对化学提高采收率的表面活性剂和聚合物进行了实验室选择。研究了SP配方的热稳定性、相行为、界面张力和流变性,并进行了前瞻性的化学设计。进行了过滤实验,优化了渣段和浓度。然后利用SWCTT对近井区水驱和化学提高采收率后的剩余油饱和度进行评价。所得值之间的差异是衡量表面活性剂-聚合物驱效率的指标。大流行限制将SWCTT转移到温度降至零度以下并适合冬季条件的时期。为了验证sp驱的技术经济模型,采用相同表面活性剂、不同设计的段塞进行了两次SWCTT试验。在第三口井获得了长期聚合物注入能力。注入表面活性剂-聚合物溶液后,砂岩储层的含油饱和度降低了约10%,约为水驱后剩余油的三分之一。结果与其他可用数据(如测井、岩心驱替实验和流体动力学模拟)进行了比较。SWCTT的建模正在进行中,目前的解释证实sp驱后的采收率提高了20-25%,这是一个很有希望的结果。建立了井底区域温度模型并进行了验证。该模型预测这些区域的温度基本低于油藏的平均温度,这对于解释示踪剂测试和表面活性剂的效率非常重要。所测表面活性剂在非最佳条件下具有良好的效率,有利于SP配方在相邻油田和储层温度不同但水成分相似的地层的应用。一般来说,现场试验的结果与所选表面活性剂岩心试验的结果相一致

Abu Dhabi subsurface fault populations triggered basin system in diverse directions, because of their significant role as fluid pathways. Studying fault infill materials, fault geometries, zone architecture and sealing properties from outcrops as analogues to the subsurface of Abu Dhabi, and combining these with well data and cores are the main objectives of this paper. The fault core around the fault plane and in areas of overlap between fault segments and around the fault tip include slip surfaces and deformed rocks such as fault gouge, breccia, and lenses of host rock, shale smear, salt flux and diagenetic features. Structural geometry of the fault zone architecture and fault plane infill is mainly based on the competency contrast of the materials, that are behaving in ductile or in a brittle manner, which are distributed in the subsurface of Abu Dhabi sedimentary sequences with variable thicknesses. Brittleness is producing lenses, breccia and gouge, while, ductile intervals (principally shales and salt), evolved in smear and flux. The fault and fractures are behaving in a sealy or leaky ways is mainly dependent on the percentage of these materials in the fault deformation zone. The reservoir sections distancing from shale and salt layers are affected by diagenetic impact of the carbonates filling fault zones by recrystallized calcite and dolomite. Musandam area, Ras Al Khaima (RAK), and Jabal Hafit (JH) on the northeast- and eastern-side of the UAE represents good surface analogues for studying fault materials infill characteristics. To approach this, several samples, picked from fault planes, were analysed. NW-trending faults system show more dominant calcite, dolomite, anhydrites and those closer to salt and shale intervals are showing smearing of the ductile infill. The other linked segments and transfer faults of other directions are represented by a lesser percentage of infill. In areas of gravitational tectonics, the decollement ductile interval is intruded in differently oriented open fractures. The studied outcrops of the offshore salt islands and onshore Jabal Al Dhanna (JD) showing salt flux in the surrounding layers that intruded by the salt. The fractures and faults of the surrounding layers and the embedment insoluble layers are highly deformed and showing nearly total seal. As the salt behaving in an isotropic manner, the deformation can be measured clearly by its impact on the surrounding and embedment's insoluble rocks. The faults/fractures behaviour is vicious in migrating hydrocarbons, production enhancement and hydraulic fracturing propagation.
阿布扎比地下断裂群作为流体通道的重要作用,在不同方向上触发了盆地体系。研究从露头到阿布扎比地下的断层充填物、断层几何形状、带构型和密封特性,并将其与井数据和岩心相结合,是本文的主要目标。断面周围、断段重叠区域和断尖周围的断核包括滑动面和断层泥、角砾岩等变形岩,以及寄主岩透镜体、页岩涂抹、盐通量和成岩特征。阿布扎比变厚度沉积层序地下分布的韧性和脆性材料的能力对比,是确定断裂带构造和断面充填的主要依据。脆性产生透镜体、角砾岩和泥岩,而韧性层(主要是页岩和盐层)则在涂片和通量中演化。断层和裂缝的封闭性或漏性主要取决于这些物质在断层变形带中的百分比。远离页岩和盐层的储层段受到碳酸盐岩充填断裂带的方解石和白云岩重结晶成岩作用的影响。阿联酋东北部和东侧的Musandam地区、Ras Al Khaima (RAK)和Jabal Hafit (JH)是研究断层物质充填特征的良好地表模拟物。为了解决这个问题,研究人员分析了从断层面上采集的几个样本。北西向断裂体系中方解石、白云岩、硬石膏占主导地位,靠近盐层和页岩层段的断裂体系中韧性充填物呈模糊化。其他连接段和其他方向的传递断层的充填比例较小。在重力构造地区,滑脱韧性段侵入于不同取向的开放裂缝中。研究了近海盐岛和岸上贾巴尔•阿尔•丹纳(JD)的露头,显示了盐侵入周围层的盐通量。围岩和埋置不溶层的裂缝断裂高度变形,几乎完全封闭。由于盐具有各向同性,因此可以通过其对周围和嵌入的不溶性岩石的影响来清楚地测量变形。断层/裂缝行为在油气运移、增产和水力压裂扩展方面是恶性的。

Loss of circulation while drilling the surface holes has become the main challenge in the Abu Dhabi Onshore developed fields. Typical consequences of losses are blind drilling and high instability of the wellbore that eventually led to hole collapse, drill string pack-offs and other associated well-integrity risks. Expensive operations including implementing aerated drilling technique, high water consumption and logistical constraints lead to difficulties reaching planned depth and running casing with added complexities of well integrity due to poor cement quality and bonding in the required isolation zones. Casing while drilling (CWD) is becoming a powerful method in mitigating both lost circulation as well as wellbore stability issues. This paper details the first 13 3/8″ × 16″ successful non-directional CWD trial accomplished in Abu Dhabi and the various advantages of the process. The Non-Directional CWD technology is used to drill vertical or tangent profiles with no directional drilling or logging (formation evaluation) requirements. The casing string is run with drillable body polycrystalline diamond cutters (PDC) bit and solid body centralizers are installed into the casing to achieve the required stand-off for cementing purpose. Some of the best practices applied to conventional drilling operations are not valid for CWD. The paper presents the methodology followed by the drilling engineers during the planning and preparation phases and presents a detailed description of the execution at the rig and the results of the evaluation including time savings, cement quality, rate of penetration, bottomhole assembly (BHA) directional tendency and losses comparison among others.The implementation of CWD saved the operator five days. The bit selection and fit-for-purpose bit design were critical factors for the success of the application. The interval was drilled (as planned) in one run through interbedded formations with a competitive rate of penetration (ROP). In this trial the interval consisted of 2,470ft with an average on-bottom ROP of 63.7 ft/hr, zero quality, health, safety and environmental (QHSE) incidents with enhanced safety for the rig crew.The technology eliminated the non-productive time (NPT) associated with tight spots, BHA pack-off, vibrations or stalls which it is an indication of good hole cleaning and optimum drilling parameters.Medium losses (10-15 BBL/hr) were cured due to the plastering and wellbore strengthening effect of CWD allowing drilling to resume with full returns.Well Verticality maintained with 0.3 degrees Inclination at section final depth.The drillable CWD bit was drilled out with a standard 12.25-in PDC bit in 1 hour as per the plan.
钻井时的循环漏失已经成为阿布扎比陆上开发油田面临的主要挑战。漏失的典型后果是盲目钻井和井筒高度不稳定,最终导致井眼坍塌、钻柱堵塞和其他相关的井完整性风险。实施充气钻井技术、高用水量和后勤限制等成本高昂的作业导致难以达到计划深度,下入套管以及由于所需隔离区域的水泥质量差和粘结性差而增加的井完整性复杂性。随钻下套管(CWD)正在成为缓解井漏和井筒稳定性问题的一种有力方法。本文详细介绍了在阿布扎比成功完成的第一次13 3/8″× 16″非定向CWD试验,以及该工艺的各种优势。非定向CWD技术用于垂直或切线剖面的钻井,无需定向钻井或测井(地层评价)要求。套管柱下入可钻体聚晶金刚石切削齿(PDC)钻头,并在套管中安装实体扶正器,以达到固井所需的隔离效果。一些适用于常规钻井作业的最佳实践并不适用于CWD。本文介绍了钻井工程师在计划和准备阶段所遵循的方法,并详细描述了钻机上的执行情况和评估结果,包括节省的时间、水泥质量、钻进速度、底部钻具组合(BHA)的定向趋势和损失比较等。CWD的实施为作业者节省了5天时间。钻头选择和适合用途的钻头设计是该应用成功的关键因素。这段井段按照计划在一趟钻中钻透了互层地层,具有竞争力的机械钻速(ROP)。在这次试验中,井段长度为2470英尺,平均底部ROP为63.7英尺/小时,零质量、健康、安全和环境(QHSE)事故,提高了钻井人员的安全性。该技术消除了与紧点、BHA封隔、振动或失速相关的非生产时间(NPT),这是良好的井眼清洁和最佳钻井参数的标志。由于CWD的抹灰和井眼强化效果,中等漏失(10-15桶/小时)得到了修复,使钻井能够完全恢复。井的垂直度在井段最终深度保持在0.3度。按照计划,可钻的CWD钻头使用标准12.25-in PDC钻头在1小时内钻出。

The United Arab Emirates oil and gas reservoirs are continuously intersected with a growing number of horizontal wells and longer drains at varying bottomhole static temperatures. This results in a variety of naturally flowing and more challenging wells where stimulation is required for sustainable flow. Hence it became important to not only rely on plain acid systems for production gain, but to also include more sophisticated acid stimulation systems that can provide improved results in more challenging environments where plain acid may be found lacking. These results were recently achieved via the introduction of single-phase retarded acid (SPRA) as well as viscoelastic diverting acid (VEDA) in inactive wells offshore. The application of SPRA and VEDA was subsequent to extensive laboratory testing including core flow tests, solubility tests, and emulsion tendency testing to the performance of these blends against existing acid recipes such as plain HCl and polymer-based diverting acid. These tests proved that a combination of SPRA and VEDA would allow maximizing lateral coverage in heterogenous reservoirs due to the chemical diversion capabilities from thief zones without imposing further damage that polymer-based diverted acids may cause. The combined SPRA and VEDA would also enhance acid wormhole penetration due to the reduced rate of reaction caused by acid retardation. Such tests were supported with software simulations that provided acid dosage, pumping rate, and pumping method sensitives. Proposing SPRA and VEDA at higher pumping rates enabled the delivery of previously unattainable production influx at sustainable wellhead pressures. In addition, 28% acid content typically used for dolomitic reservoirs was considered unnecessary as 20% retarded acid proved sufficient in such environments. This allowed bullheading treatments, which was previously not possible due to the restriction on pumping 28% acid content across wellheads to avoid causing corrosive damage. Other treatment parameters such as volumes, rates, and acid/diverter sequence and ratio were also adjusted for optimal wormhole penetration across all zones using a fit-for-purpose carbonate matrix acidizing modeling software. The success of SPRA and VEDA was clear in post-treatment evaluation for the cases of previously shut-in wells. These wells were able to produce sustainably at the required tubinghead pressure (production line pressure) after unsuccessful attempts to flow prior to stimulation. The novelty of this paper is the assessment between legacy carbonate stimulation results in UAE using plain HCl acid and polymer-based diverting acid (PDA) and using SPRA and VEDA in shut-in or inactive wells. It also highlights the game-changing solutions that suit the increasing challenges observed in offshore inactive wells including well placement, lithology, bottomhole static temperature, and permeability contrast.
在不同的井底静态温度下,阿联酋的油气储层与越来越多的水平井和更长的管道连续相交。这导致了各种各样的自然流动井和更具挑战性的井,这些井需要进行增产以实现可持续的流动。因此,重要的是不仅要依靠普通酸系统来提高产量,而且要包括更复杂的酸增产系统,这些系统可以在缺乏普通酸的更具挑战性的环境中提供更好的效果。这些结果是最近通过在海上闲置井中引入单相缓速酸(SPRA)和粘弹性转向酸(VEDA)实现的。在应用了SPRA和VEDA之后,进行了大量的实验室测试,包括岩心流动测试、溶解度测试和乳液倾向测试,以测试这些混合物对现有酸配方(如普通盐酸和聚合物基转向酸)的性能。这些测试证明,SPRA和VEDA的组合可以最大限度地提高非均质储层的横向覆盖范围,因为这些非均质储层具有化学转移能力,而不会造成聚合物基转移酸可能造成的进一步损害。SPRA和VEDA联合使用还可以提高酸虫孔的穿透性,这是由于酸阻滞导致的反应速率降低。这些测试得到了软件模拟的支持,提供了酸用量、泵送速率和泵送方法的敏感性。在更高的泵送速率下提出SPRA和VEDA,可以在可持续的井口压力下提供以前无法实现的生产流量。此外,白云岩储层通常使用28%的酸含量,因为20%的缓缓酸在这种环境下已经足够了,因此被认为是不必要的。这使得扩顶作业成为可能,这在以前是不可能的,因为为了避免造成腐蚀损害,井口只能泵入28%的酸。其他处理参数,如体积、速率、酸/转喷剂顺序和比例,也通过适合用途的碳酸盐基质酸化建模软件进行调整,以实现所有层段的最佳虫孔穿透。SPRA和VEDA在之前关井的处理后评价中取得了明显的成功。这些井在增产前尝试流动失败后,能够在所需的油管压力(生产线压力)下持续生产。本文的新颖之处在于对阿联酋使用普通HCl酸和聚合物基转向酸(PDA)以及在关井或非活动井中使用SPRA和VEDA的传统碳酸盐岩增产效果进行了评估。它还强调了改变游戏规则的解决方案,以适应海上非活动井日益增加的挑战,包括井位、岩性、井底静态温度和渗透率对比。

In 2017, a blowout and explosion occurred in a drilling oilwell in the Middle East. After drilling to the depth of 2,610 m, tripping was decided in order to change the bit. When the crew were pulling the drill string out of the hole with the drill-string being at the depth of 1332 m, blowout and explosion occurred. The well was a development well drilling almost horizontally (82 degrees inclination angle) into a highly-pressured gas-cap and oil pay-zone of the oilfield. In this work, following a brief explanation of the root causal factors of the incident, we give an account of the blowout control methods applied to put an end to the blowout. Both the top-kill method and the bottom-kill method by relief well drilling, were simultaneously implemented to control the blowout. Finally, the blowout was successfully controlled by the bottom-kill after 58 days. During top-kill operations, all equipment was cleared away and this contributed to proceeding to permanent abandonment immediately after the relief well success. Finally, the adverse effect of the blowout on the environment (HSE) was qualitatively discussed.
2017年,中东地区的一口钻井发生井喷和爆炸。钻进至2610米深度后,决定起下钻更换钻头。当工作人员将钻柱拉出井眼时,钻柱深度为1332 m,发生井喷爆炸。该井为几乎水平(82度斜度)钻入油田高压气顶产油区的开发井。在本文中,在简要解释了事故的根本原因之后,我们介绍了为制止井喷而采用的井喷控制方法。同时采用顶压法和减压井底压法控制井喷。最后,58天后,井喷通过压底成功控制。在顶压作业期间,所有设备都被清理干净,这有助于在减压井成功后立即进行永久弃井。最后,定性地讨论了井喷对环境的不利影响(HSE)。

Over the last few years, ADNOC has systematically investigated a new polymer-based EOR scheme to improve sweep efficiency in high temperature and high salinity (HTHS) carbonate reservoirs in Abu Dhabi (Masalmeh et al., 2014). Consequently, ADNOC has developed a thorough de-risking program for the new EOR concept in these carbonate reservoirs. The de-risking program includes extensive laboratory experimental studies and field injectivity tests to ensure that the selected polymer can be propagated in the target reservoirs. A new polymer with high 2-acrylamido-tertiary-butyl sulfonic acid (ATBS) content was identified, based on extensive laboratory studies (Masalmeh, et al., 2019, Dupuis, et al., 2017, Jouenne 2020), and an initial polymer injectivity test (PIT) was conducted in 2019 at 250°F and salinity >200,000 ppm, with low H2S content (Rachapudi, et al., 2020, Leon and Masalmeh, 2021). The next step for ADNOC was to extend polymer application to harsher field conditions, including higher H2S content. Accordingly, a PIT was designed in preparation for a multi-well pilot This paper presents ADNOC's follow-up PIT, which expands the envelope of polymer flooding to dissolve H2S concentrations of 20 - 40 ppm to confirm injectivity at representative field conditions and in situ polymer performance. The PIT was executed over five months, from February 2021 to July 2021, followed by a chase water flood that will run until December 2021. A total of 108,392 barrels of polymer solution were successfully injected during the PIT. The extensive dataset acquired was used to assess injectivity and in-depth mobility reduction associated with the new polymer. Preliminary results from the PIT suggest that all key performance indicators have been achieved, with a predictable viscosity yield and good injectivity at target rates, consistent with the laboratory data. The use of a down-hole shut-in tool (DHSIT) to acquire pressure fall-off (PFO) data clarified the near-wellbore behaviour of the polymer and allowed optimisation of the PIT programme. This paper assesses the importance of water quality on polymer solution preparation and injection performance and reviews operational data acquired during the testing period. Polymer properties determined during the PIT will be used to optimise field and sector models and will facilitate the evaluation of polymer EOR in other giant, heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs, leading to improved recovery in ADNOC and Middle East reservoirs.
在过去的几年里,ADNOC系统地研究了一种新的基于聚合物的EOR方案,以提高阿布扎比高温高盐度(HTHS)碳酸盐岩储层的波及效率(Masalmeh等,2014)。因此,ADNOC为这些碳酸盐岩储层的新EOR概念开发了一套全面的降低风险方案。降低风险项目包括广泛的实验室实验研究和现场注入能力测试,以确保选定的聚合物能够在目标储层中扩展。根据大量的实验室研究(Masalmeh等人,2019年,Dupuis等人,2017年,Jouenne 2020年),确定了一种具有高2-丙烯酰胺-叔丁基磺酸(ATBS)含量的新型聚合物,并于2019年在250°F、盐度bbb20万ppm、低H2S含量的条件下进行了初始聚合物注入性测试(PIT) (Rachapudi等人,2020年,Leon和Masalmeh, 2021年)。ADNOC的下一步是将聚合物应用扩展到更恶劣的现场条件,包括更高的H2S含量。本文介绍了ADNOC的后续PIT,该PIT扩大了聚合物驱的范围,可溶解浓度为20 - 40 ppm的H2S,以确认代表性现场条件下的注入能力和原位聚合物性能。从2021年2月到2021年7月,该PIT执行了5个月,随后将持续到2021年12月。在PIT期间,总共成功注入了108392桶聚合物溶液。获得的大量数据集用于评估与新聚合物相关的注入性和深度迁移率降低。PIT的初步结果表明,所有关键性能指标都已实现,具有可预测的粘度产率和目标速率下的良好注入能力,与实验室数据一致。使用井下关井工具(DHSIT)获取压降(PFO)数据,明确了聚合物的近井行为,并优化了PIT程序。本文评价了水质对聚合物溶液制备和注入性能的重要性,并对测试期间获得的运行数据进行了综述。在PIT期间确定的聚合物性质将用于优化油田和部门模型,并将有助于评估其他大型非均质碳酸盐岩油藏的聚合物EOR,从而提高ADNOC和中东油藏的采收率。

Enhanced Production with Self-Driven Multi-Phase Pumps 采用自驱动多相泵提高产量
Pub Date : 2021-12-09 DOI: 10.2118/207355-ms
Maamoun Abdul Halim, Emiliano Maianti
Some wells are either producing intermittently or ceasing against the trunk line pressure due to low flowing wellhead pressure. OLS with MPP provides the flexibility such as boosting pressure from low flowing wellhead pressure well to the existing trunk lines. The MPP has a wider pressure operating envelope to accommodate the less flowing wellhead pressure well in long run. Incremental Oil & gas production will be realized by lowering the FWHP on this well using the OLS. Multi-Phase Pumps solutions have sustained production from marginal and restarted non-producing wells. Production gains are highly dependent on the reservoir and well parameters.
由于井口流动压力低,一些井要么间歇性生产,要么在主干管线压力下停止生产。带有MPP的OLS提供了灵活性,例如将低流量井口压力井的压力提升到现有的主干管线。MPP具有更宽的压力操作包层,以适应长期井口压力较小的井。通过使用OLS降低该井的FWHP,可以实现油气产量的增加。多相泵解决方案可以维持边际井和重新启动的非生产井的产量。产量增益高度依赖于油藏和井参数。

The evolution of the energy market requires companies to increase their operating efficiency, leveraging on collaborative environment and existing assets, including Data. A new focus on data governance and integration is needed to maximize the value of data and ensure "real-time" efficient response. The decoupling of data from applications enables organization by domain and data type in one cross-functional data hub. This scheme is independent from the scope of the activity and will therefore maintain its validity when dealing with new business requiring subsurface data utilization. The integrated data platform will feed advanced digital tools capable to control the risks, optimize performance and reduce emissions associated with the operations. Eni is putting this idea into practice with a new data infrastructure which is integrated across all the subsurface disciplines (G&G, Exploration, Upstream Laboratories, Reservoir and Well Operations departments). In this paper, the example of real time data exploitation will be discussed. Real time data workflow was first established in well operations for operational supervision and later developed for real time performance optimization, through the introduction of predictive analytics. Its latest evolution in the broader subsurface domain encompasses the application of AI to operations geology processes and the extension to all operated activities. This approach will equally support new company goals, such as decarbonization, increasing performance of subsurface activities related to underground storage of CO2 in depleted reservoirs.
能源市场的发展要求公司提高运营效率,利用协作环境和现有资产,包括数据。需要重新关注数据治理和集成,以最大化数据价值并确保“实时”高效响应。数据与应用程序的解耦支持在一个跨功能数据中心中按域和数据类型进行组织。该方案独立于活动范围,因此在处理需要利用地下数据的新业务时将保持其有效性。综合数据平台将提供先进的数字工具,能够控制风险,优化性能并减少与运营相关的排放。埃尼公司正在将这一想法付诸实践,并建立了一个新的数据基础设施,该基础设施集成了所有地下学科(天然气与天然气、勘探、上游实验室、油藏和井作业部门)。本文将讨论实时数据开发的实例。实时数据工作流最初是在井作业中建立的,用于作业监督,后来通过引入预测分析,用于实时性能优化。它在更广泛的地下领域的最新发展包括人工智能在作业地质过程中的应用,并扩展到所有作业活动。这种方法同样可以支持公司的新目标,例如脱碳,提高与枯竭储层中二氧化碳地下储存相关的地下活动的性能。

In order to develop an effective inspection program for the early operational phase, Risk Based Inspection (RBI) study is included as a standard requirement in recent EPC Oil & Gas Projects. Conventionally, RBI study was managed by Operators, however nowadays EPC contractors are mandated to execute the same. This paper discusses the challenges faced by EPC Contractor during the execution of RBI study and provides an approach for timely completion of study. RBI study involves enormous data gathering and risk assessment to identify critical equipment, piping systems to optimize inspection programs and recommends inspection frequencies, locations and techniques. In addition, RBI study covers potential damage mechanisms identification, risk ranking and identification of potential hot spots for development of inspection program. RBI is normally performed based on risk assessment methodologies derived from International Standards such as API 580/581, DNV RP G101and applicable Operator guidelines. Specialized software is widely used for carrying out integrated activities involving failure probability, consequence assessment and inspection details. Finally, RBI inspection programs are integrated with Computerized Maintenance Management System. In order to execute RBI study successfully, a specialized third-party Consultant is normally engaged., Further alignment of all stakeholders including RBI study specialist is essential to address the following: - Timely availability of "As-built" data for study such as baseline inspection survey reports Agreement on design data versus baseline inspection data for RBI analysis Agreement on appropriate RBI approach: quantitative vs. semi-quantitative/qualitative Acceptance of RBI software Agreement on inspection program recommendations including hot spots, inspection intervals RBI study activities can be effectively initiated once the equipment fabrication records, piping isometrics, baseline reports and hydro-test data are available. In case of pipelines, inline inspection data should be the initial basis for the pipeline RBI assessment. EPC contractors normally face following challenges during RBI study execution: Delay in finalizing the study due to lack of "As-built" data Inconsistency between the outcomes of Corrosion Risk Assessment Study and RBI study performed by third party due to different corrosion modeling software Implications on selected material of construction as a result of RBI Study findings Ensuring compatibility of RBI templates with Operators CMMS. NPCC, as a large EPC company, has extensive experience in various Oil & Gas projects where RBI studies are developed in recent EPC projects and ensuring the integrity of the newly constructed assets. This paper attempts to address the challenges faced by EPC Contractor during execution of RBI studies; emphasizing the strategic considerations to be adopted for successful and timely completion of the study, providing benefits to the End user
为了在早期作业阶段制定有效的检查计划,基于风险的检查(RBI)研究已成为最近EPC油气项目的标准要求。传统上,RBI研究是由运营商管理的,但现在EPC承包商被授权执行同样的工作。本文讨论了EPC承包商在实施RBI研究过程中所面临的挑战,并提出了及时完成研究的方法。RBI研究涉及大量数据收集和风险评估,以确定关键设备和管道系统,以优化检查计划,并建议检查频率、地点和技术。此外,RBI研究还包括潜在损伤机制识别、风险排序和潜在热点识别,为检测方案的制定提供依据。RBI通常根据国际标准(如API 580/581、DNV RP g101和适用的运营商指南)衍生的风险评估方法进行。专门的软件被广泛用于开展涉及故障概率、后果评估和检查细节的综合活动。最后,将RBI检查程序与计算机维护管理系统相结合。为了成功实施RBI研究,通常会聘请专门的第三方顾问。包括印度储备银行研究专家在内的所有利益相关者的进一步协调对于解决以下问题至关重要:-及时提供用于研究的“建成”数据,如基线检查调查报告,就设计数据与印度储备银行分析的基线检查数据达成一致,就适当的印度储备银行方法达成一致;一旦有了设备制造记录、管道等距图、基线报告和水力测试数据,就可以有效地启动RBI研究活动。对于管道,在线检测数据应作为管道RBI评估的初始依据。EPC承包商在RBI研究执行过程中通常面临以下挑战:由于缺乏“建成”数据而导致研究最终完成的延迟;由于腐蚀建模软件不同,腐蚀风险评估研究的结果与第三方进行的RBI研究的结果不一致;由于RBI研究结果对选择的建筑材料的影响;确保RBI模板与运营商CMMS的兼容性。NPCC作为一家大型EPC公司,在各种石油和天然气项目中拥有丰富的经验,在最近的EPC项目中开发了RBI研究,并确保了新建资产的完整性。本文试图解决EPC承包商在实施RBI研究过程中面临的挑战;强调为成功及适时完成研究而采取的策略考虑,为最终用户提供好处。

Geochemical Inversion Applied to Oil Samples from Lower Cretaceous Reservoirs, Southeast Abu Dhabi: Implications for Hydrocarbon Exploration 地球化学反演在阿布扎比东南部下白垩统油气勘探中的应用
Pub Date : 2021-12-09 DOI: 10.2118/207558-ms
Lozano Mario Jorge, H. Camacho, José O. Guevara
The Middle East contains some of the most fascinating and prolific oil provinces in the world. The combination of excellent source rocks of different geologic ages, the presence of outstanding reservoirs and ubiquitous seals, optimal thermal history, and structural evolution provides an ideal recipe to produce the largest oilfields in the world. The UAE is currently estimated to hold 6% of global oil reserves, 96% of which are within Abu Dhabi. However, exploration for additional recoverable reserves is becoming more challenging. Finding hydrocarbons for the future is dependent upon a detailed understanding of the petroleum systems and subtle play types. For southeastern Abu Dhabi, several petroleum systems have been proposed to explain the oil and gas accumulations in Lower Cretaceous reservoirs. This study presents the practical application of a geochemical inversion workflow to a set of oil samples from Lower Cretaceous reservoirs collected in two exploration wells recently drilled in southeastern Abu Dhabi. The geochemical inversion workflow is based on stable isotope, biomarker, and oil composition data. Preliminary results and comparisons with previously identified oil families in the UAE suggest that the oils were generated from a carbonate-rich source rock deposited during Jurassic time. Compositional data and detailed stratigraphic and structural analyses support the possibility of multiple episodes of lateral and vertical migrations. The implications and risk associated with the timing of oil generation and trap formation are presented here to define a path forward and guide the prospecting efforts within this exciting region.
中东拥有世界上一些最迷人、最多产的石油省份。不同地质时代的优质烃源岩、出色储层的存在和无处不在的密封、最佳热史和构造演化的结合,为开发世界上最大的油田提供了理想的配方。据估计,阿联酋目前拥有全球6%的石油储量,其中96%位于阿布扎比。然而,勘探额外的可采储量正变得越来越具有挑战性。未来寻找碳氢化合物取决于对含油气系统和微妙的储层类型的详细了解。对于阿布扎比东南部,已经提出了几个石油系统来解释下白垩统储层的油气聚集。本研究介绍了地球化学反演工作流程在阿布扎比东南部最近钻探的两口勘探井中采集的下白垩统储层油样的实际应用。地球化学反演工作流程基于稳定同位素、生物标志物和石油成分数据。初步结果和与先前在阿联酋发现的油族的比较表明,这些油来自侏罗纪时期沉积的富含碳酸盐的烃源岩。成分数据和详细的地层和构造分析支持了多期侧向和垂直运移的可能性。本文介绍了与产油和圈闭形成时间相关的影响和风险,以确定前进的道路,并指导在这个令人兴奋的地区的勘探工作。
{"title":"Geochemical Inversion Applied to Oil Samples from Lower Cretaceous Reservoirs, Southeast Abu Dhabi: Implications for Hydrocarbon Exploration","authors":"Lozano Mario Jorge, H.

The combination of excellent source rocks of different geologic ages, the presence of outstanding reservoirs and ubiquitous seals, optimal thermal history, and structural evolution provides an ideal recipe to produce the largest oilfields in the world. The UAE is currently estimated to hold 6% of global oil reserves, 96% of which are within Abu Dhabi. However, exploration for additional recoverable reserves is becoming more challenging. Finding hydrocarbons for the future is dependent upon a detailed understanding of the petroleum systems and subtle play types. For southeastern Abu Dhabi, several petroleum systems have been proposed to explain the oil and gas accumulations in Lower Cretaceous reservoirs. This study presents the practical application of a geochemical inversion workflow to a set of oil samples from Lower Cretaceous reservoirs collected in two exploration wells recently drilled in southeastern Abu Dhabi. The geochemical inversion workflow is based on stable isotope, biomarker, and oil composition data. Preliminary results and comparisons with previously identified oil families in the UAE suggest that the oils were generated from a carbonate-rich source rock deposited during Jurassic time. Compositional data and detailed stratigraphic and structural analyses support the possibility of multiple episodes of lateral and vertical migrations. The implications and risk associated with the timing of oil generation and trap formation are presented here to define a path forward and guide the prospecting efforts within this exciting region.","PeriodicalId":11069,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Tue, November 16, 2021","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74930037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
