Abstract
Many years have passed in oil field development but primary challenges faced by the X reservoir are the rapid decline of formation pressure and the significant solution gas released from the formation, which impairs production. Based on these challenges, a compositional simulation model of the X reservoir was constructed and run to establish the future development plans. The basic reservoir data collection and processing, quality assurance of the data, characteristic pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) matching by ECLIPSE PVTi, and simulation of various adjustment strategies to forecast development plans, as well as data sensitivity analysis and optimization has been included in this study. In addition, to establish a desirable development plan, the simulation model is set up in great consistency with the geological model resulted from the seismic and logging interpretations. Also, emphases are paid on establishing matches with the reported lab data from production wells by PVTi. Results revealed that the specific reservoir development plan intends to reinstate or maintain formation pressure of the X reservoir. All design and optimization studies are set to comprehend the reservoir with the numerical model.
