Example #4-Transient Oil Well Example (Example4.csv)

This document describes an example of an oil well with an unknown reservoir drive mechanism that has been producing for 9 months. Key information provided includes a gas-oil ratio of 1100 standard cubic feet per barrel that has remained constant, daily tubing pressure measurements but no bottomhole pressure data except for initial shut-in pressure. The well parameters such as porosity, fluid properties, and well construction details are also given. Questions are asked about whether conventional decline analysis and typecurve models can be reliably used to estimate the original oil in place for this well.

Example #4- Transient Oil Well Example (example4.

csv)

Description:

- New oil well (flowing); reservoir drive mechanism unknown


- GOR = 1100 scf/bbl, constant over 9 months of production
- Tubing pressures measured daily, no bottomhole pressures available (except
for initial shut-in)

Reservoir / Wellbore Parameters:

Pi = 4,265 psia (bottomhole)


T = 103 deg F
h = 104 ft
Porosity = 28.2 %
Sg = 0 %
Sw = 14.1 %
G = 0.65
CO2, H2S, N2 = 0
Oil gravity = 39 API
GOR = 1,100 scf/bbl

Pressure Source=Tubing
Producing Through= Tubing
Fluids used for Static Calc.=Gas
MPP / tubing depth = 6,150 ft
Tubing ID = 3 in
Tubing OD = 3.5 in
Casing ID = 5 in
Casing Depth= 6250 ft
Wellhead Flowing / Static Temp. = 75 / 50 deg F
Choose the appropriate pressure loss correlation for BHP calculations

Questions:

- Should conventional (Arps) decline analysis be used in this case?


- Does the well exhibit boundary dominated flow?
- Do you believe the typecurve models can estimate OOIP reliably, in this
case?
