RAPID Field Development Program

Program orientation and Introduction to FDP

This one day introduction will provide the participants with an opportunity to learn the fundamental approaches in constructing a Field Development Plan (FDP).  The workflow that is required for initial development plan followed by updates with changing reservoir conditions will also be introduced. This may include introducing secondary and tertiary developments to improve recovery factors. Participants will also be exposed to the importance of reservoir monitoring and the need for updating the reservoir development with the changing reservoir conditions

Understand/Build Static Model

For the next five days participants will study what information is required to build a Geological Static Model, such as Petroleum Geology, Subsurface Mapping, Petrophysical Analysis and Geostatistics. The participants will be provided with the initial data, which they will use in a hands on practical approach to build the static model via Petrel.  At the end of this module a generic static model using the same data will be distributed for future work.

Volumetrics

Participants will study what information is required to build a Geological Static Model, such as Petroleum Geology, Subsurface Mapping, Petrophysical Analysis and Geostatistics. The participants will be provided with the initial data, which they will use in a hands on practical approach to build the static model via Petrel.  At the end of this module a generic static model using the same data will be distributed for future work.

Fluid Properties and Phase Behavior

After instruction on PVT properties and phase behavior; PVT data on fluid properties and phase behavior will be reviewed and analyzed.  The outcome of this workshop will be the necessary information for dynamic model preparation.

Well Test Analysis

Well Test analysis methods will be taught and discussed during the first  day.  During the workshop on second day the participants will analyze  well tests from the selected wells which are under investigation.  The main outcome of this workshop will be the reservoir pressure, drainage area boundaries, production capacities of each well bore, formation damage information and the information regarding  the type of porous system.

3D Reservoir Modeling and Upscaling

The main target is to start the development of  the dynamic model of the reservoir under investigation. During this workshop, participants will work on 3D Reservoir Modeling and Upscaling.

Reservoir Model Calibration/History Matching

Within this  2 days module the participants will finalize the development of  the dynamic model for  the reservoir under investigation. During this workshop Reservoir Model Calibration/History Matching will be carried out.  At the end of this module a generic Dynamic model using the same data will be distributed for future work.

Well Placement and Production Optimizations

The goal of this workshop is first a)to introduce the concept of geological well placement (geosteering) and provide knowledge of the processes and techniques that can be used to successfully place high angle and horizontal wells using geological and petrophysical data in real-time during drilling, b)and provide the knowledge on integrated subsurface–surface production optimization.  The participant then will apply this knowledge to their field under investigation.  Output will be the possible new well locations and the expected optimum production rates to be used in the next module of Development scenarios.

Development Scenarios

During this 3 days workshop three different Field Development Scenarios will be prepared  and worked on by different teams. The predicted production profiles will be the main target of the workshop.
