This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automatic history matching methods utilize various kinds of inverse modeling techniques. In this dissertation, we examine ensemble Kalman filter as a stochastic approach for assimilating different types of production data and streamline-based inversion methods as a deterministic approach for integrating both production and time-lapse seismic data into high resolution reservoir models. For the ensemble Kalman filter, we develope a physically motivated phase streamline-based covariance localization method to improve data assimilation performance while capturing geologic continuities that affect the flow dynamics and preserving model variability among the ensemble of models. For the streamline-based inversion method, we derived saturation and pressure drop sensitivities with respect to reservoir properties along streamline trajectories and integrated time-lapse seismic derived saturation and pressure changes along with production data using a synthetic model and the Brugge field model. Our results show the importance of accounting for both saturation and pressure changes in the reservoir responses in order to constrain the history matching solutions. Finally we demonstrated the practical feasibility of a proposed structured work- flow for time-lapse seismic and production data integration through the Norne field application. Our proposed method follows a two-step approach: global and local model calibrations. In the global step, we reparameterize the field permeability heterogeneity with a Grid Connectivity-based Transformation with the basis coefficient as parameters and use a Pareto-based multi-objective evolutionary algorithm to integrate field cumulative production and time-lapse seismic derived acoustic impedance change data. The method generates a suite of trade-off solutions while fitting production and seismic data. In the local step, first the time-lapse seismic data is integrated using the streamline-derived sensitivities of acoustic impedance with respect to reservoir permeability incorporating pressure and saturation effects in-between time-lapse seismic surveys. Next, well production data is integrated by using a generalized travel time inversion method to resolve fine-scale permeability variations between well locations. After model calibration, we use the ensemble of history matched models in an optimal rate control strategy to maximize sweep and injection efficiency by equalizing flood front arrival times at all producers while accounting for geologic uncertainty. Our results show incremental improvement of ultimate recovery and NPV values. The electronic version of this dissertation is accessible from http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/151664

Download or read book Theory of Linear Poroelasticity with Applications to Geomechanics and Hydrogeology written by Herbert F. Wang and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of linear poroelasticity describes the interaction between mechanical effects and adding or removing fluid from rock. It is critical to the study of such geological phenomena as earthquakes and landslides and is important for numerous engineering projects, including dams, groundwater withdrawal, and petroleum extraction. Now an advanced text synthesizes in one place, with one notation, numerous classical solutions and applications of this highly useful theory. The introductory chapter recounts parallel developments in geomechanics, hydrogeology, and reservoir engineering that are unified by the tenets of poroelasticity. Next, the theory's constitutive and governing equations and their associated material parameters are described. These equations are then specialized for different simplifying geometries: unbounded problem domains, uniaxial strain, plane strain, radial symmetry, and axisymmetry. Example problems from geomechanics, hydrogeology, and petroleum engineering are incorporated throughout to illustrate poroelastic behavior and solution methods for a wide variety of real-world scenarios. The final chapter provides outlines for finite-element and boundary-element formulations of the field's governing equations. Whether read as a course of study or consulted as a reference by researchers and professionals, this volume's user-friendly presentation makes accessible one of geophysics' most important subjects and will do much to reduce poroelasticity's reputation as difficult to master.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary book encompasses the fields of rock mechanics, structural geology and petroleum engineering to address a wide range of geomechanical problems that arise during the exploitation of oil and gas reservoirs. It considers key practical issues such as prediction of pore pressure, estimation of hydrocarbon column heights and fault seal potential, determination of optimally stable well trajectories, casing set points and mud weights, changes in reservoir performance during depletion, and production-induced faulting and subsidence. The book establishes the basic principles involved before introducing practical measurement and experimental techniques to improve recovery and reduce exploitation costs. It illustrates their successful application through case studies taken from oil and gas fields around the world. This book is a practical reference for geoscientists and engineers in the petroleum and geothermal industries, and for research scientists interested in stress measurements and their application to problems of faulting and fluid flow in the crust.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes the nature, causes, and consequences of the diverse fluid movements that produce energy and mineral resources in sedimentary basins. The contained papers point to new capabilities in basin analysis methods and models. The processes that operate in the resource-producing thermo-chemical-structural reactors we call sedimentary basins are reviewed. Efficient ways to infer the tectonic history of basins are described. Impacts on hydrocarbon maturation and migration of glacial tilting, magmatic intrusion, salt migration, and fracturing are illustrated. The conditions under which subsurface flow will channel with distance traveled are identified. Seismic methods that can image and map subsurface permeability channels are described. The surface maturation, surface charge, and chemical reaction foundations of creep subsidence are set forth. Dynamic aspects of the hydrogen resource in basins are analyzed. There is much that is new that is presented in these papers with the intent of stimulating thinking and enthusiasm for the advances that will be made in future decades.
