Aspects of the disclosure relate to hydrocarbon field recovery operations. More specifically, aspects of the disclosure relate to methods of de-risking reservoir architecture through simulations run to quantify fluid charge. In embodiments, a geological architecture is determined, a fluid charging profile is created and calculations are performed on what an expected fluid charge is that would be found for field conditions. Downhole fluid measurements may be used to cross-check the viability of the geological architecture and fluid charge profile. In further embodiments, wireline field measurements may be used to prepare the geological architecture or provide a simplified geological architecture.
Understanding reservoir architecture (i.e., size and shape of compartments, vertical and lateral connectivity, etc.) is crucial for the design of an efficient field development strategy. Currently, reservoir architecture that is used to retrieve hydrocarbons is based mainly on educated operators conducting a pre-job plan and then mobilizing what is deemed to be necessary for retrieval of the hydrocarbons. Safety is paramount in such operations; therefore, the components selected for the operation are extensive.
The charging of hydrocarbon fluids happens over geologic time (thousands to millions of years) when the fluids migrate from source rocks into a subsurface enclosure (i.e., an oilfield reservoir). During hydrocarbon recovery operations, down hole fluid analysis is conducted to establish many properties of the field. To this end, there is a wealth of data available for analysis. Conventionally; however, understanding the overall fluid charge of a hydrocarbon field is accomplished through field experience. There is a need to be able to use present-day measurements of fluid distributions (from downhole fluid analysis and fluid samples acquired in exploration and appraisal wells) more efficiently.
While operations are conventionally carried out somewhat effectively, there is a need for improvement. For example, as older operators leave the oil field, the vast amounts of experience that they provide is not available for younger, less seasoned, operators to use. Also, as time progresses, deposits of hydrocarbons that are available to retrieve generally become smaller. This results in the need for more sets of equipment to be deployed for retrieval. As a consequence of such increases in equipment mobilization, the need to efficiently use the existing inventory of equipment is ever increasing. A numerical process or method is needed to allow for determining geological field properties without the guessing of experienced field workers. The numerical process or modeling should take into account both geological features and addition of fluids to the geological features to create an overall model that accurately predicts existing field conditions.
As field operators do not have unlimited resources of equipment in which to draw from, a prioritization schedule must be established for use of the equipment. Hydrocarbon projects are therefore, planned out long in advance. For instances of large fields, it is desired to be able to model such fields to determine the types of equipment to be used for ultimate removal of hydrocarbons.
Industry currently has been using various amounts of hydrocarbons; therefore, the overall cost of hydrocarbons, based on a free market economy, can vary significantly. The inability to quickly ramp up production to meet industry needs is currently a major drawback and needs to be more efficiently addressed so hydrocarbons may be brought to market quickly and efficiently. Knowing the extent and conditions of existing fields; however, is a long felt need for operators. There is a need for accurately predicting field conditions that have been developed by geological processes over time.
In conventional workflows, hypothesized reservoir architectures are either validated or falsified when the actual wells are drilled and production data becomes available. In practice, instead of working with a single model, this validation versus falsification step is often implemented as a pruning of the ensemble of models which represents the subsurface uncertainty. It is important to note; however, that it is only the movement of fluids in the reservoir that can reveal reservoir-scale connectivity. In a conventional workflow, such information only becomes available at the time of production, as well as from well testing measurements. There is a need to use the charge process of fluids entering the reservoir over geologic time as a source of information about reservoir-scale connectivity. Through this process, operators need a way to check a geological field expected charge and properties with the known features available through field investigation.
Conventional analysis or techniques for field development planning are also lacking. Field development planning as well as well placement and construction activities, benefit greatly if the underlying hydrocarbon reservoir may be accurately mapped and analyzed. For example, if analysis shows a local area of potentially greater hydraulic pressure for a reservoir, it may be more advantageous to conduct well placement activities in that area. Conventionally, well placement activities are chosen where actual samples are obtained. If an area is not completely evaluated, valuable hydrocarbon resources may not be recovered. If such resources can be recovered, the recovery may take greater amounts of equipment, such as pumps, to conduct the extraction. Similar difficulties may exist for wellbore completion and stimulation, as correct placement of a wellbore may require very little stimulation as well as minimal completion activities. Production may also be affected if little is known about the underlying reservoir. There is a need; therefore, to supplement existing field development planning technologies in order to improve hydrocarbon recoveries.
There is a further need to increase the efficiency of well placement and construction activities associated with hydrocarbon recoveries.
There is a further need to assist completion and stimulation activities through an approach that simulates fluid charge that may be present within the reservoir.
There is a still further need to provide for increased production activities associated with complex reservoirs.
There is a need to efficiently simulate reservoir architecture such that the simulation performed accurately predicts extraction that may be accomplished in the future.
There is a further need to “de-risk” the use of reservoir architecture such that the hydrocarbon recovery operations are subject to fewer unknowns, thereby allowing operators flexibility in operations for the removal process.
There is a still further need to minimize the backlog of hydrocarbon projects to meet the needs of industry by providing high quality geological models that accurately predict field conditions compared to conventional field analysis.

One example embodiment of the method 100 is illustrated in
At 106, a dynamic simulation of a charge process is performed. At 106, the charge indicates an entering of fluids, such as hydrocarbons, entering the reservoir architecture. The model is run with the charge process and a hypothetical progression of time to achieve an end result for the charge process undergoing the geological process of time. This results in hydrocarbons being present in certain quantities and at certain pressures within the defined reservoir architecture. An end result is achieved after a hypothetical passage of time modeled. The method continues at 110, where a query determines if there is agreement between measured field data (run by actual physical tests in the field), obtained at 112, and predicted fluid distributions, or end result, at 106. This may be achieved, in one non-limiting embodiment, by establishing a threshold upon which acceptance of the model may be achieved. For example, the threshold may be model calculation results being within 99 percent of field measured properties. Other values may be used. The data obtained at 112 may include measured fluid distributions from downhole fluid analysis and geochemical analysis of fluid samples. If there is agreement between the predicted charge (at 106) and the measured fluid distributions from downhole fluid analysis and geochemical analysis of fluid analysis (at 112), then the method ends at 114. If there is no agreement, the method loops to 108 where reservoir architecture is changed/modified, and another dynamic simulation is performed at 106. In other instances, the charging process at 106 may be altered and fed back to the model 104. As will be further understood, both reservoir architecture and fluid charge may be changed at 108 and the model “rerun” in successive iterations. As will be understood, multiple amendments to the reservoir architecture at 108 may be performed to more accurately simulate the charge process within the hydrocarbon field. In some instances, data from field tests may be used to establish certain constraints in the geological model at 104. By using these constraints, an original model may be more accurate based on actual field findings. In such instances, the starting with an original model that is more accurate allows for definition of a finalized model quicker as non-viable model features are discarded at the start of the process.
As illustrated in
Revisions to the architecture may then be implemented and the workflow repeated until a satisfactory match is obtained as illustrated in
Aspects of the disclosure represent a new way to test geological models by integrating fluid measurements with the physics of fluid charging and mixing processes. This new method may be realized within computer applications, as illustrated in
In one such embodiment of a computer application, the application serves to extract reservoir insights (such as connectivity, well productivity, in-place hydrocarbon volumes, etc.) by providing a 3D reservoir context for interpretation of wellbore measurements. As such, the workflow contains steps to construct candidate geological models which can be history matched, either against dynamic data from pressure transient tests (at 210), or against fluid measurements (at 212). While a pressure transient test may have a radius of investigation of, 200-500 hundred meters around the well in which the test is conducted, aspects of the present disclosure allow full reservoir-scale de-risking of candidate geological models through the integration of measurements from multiple wells along with the associated simulation of fluid charge and mixing which naturally involves the whole reservoir. After successive iterations are performed on models, field data may be used to accurately predict simplified geological architectures for analysis by operators. In one example embodiment, it may be found that fluid pressures above a certain prescribed limit indicate a specific layering of geological stratum to achieve these fluid pressures. In such instances, initial field tests may be able to define or constrain a geological model, thereby achieving superior results. In conventional analysis, field data is not used to develop a geological model to an accuracy hereby achieved.
As will be understood, the methods described above may be performed on a desktop computer, a computer server, a web-based server or cloud computing apparatus. In further embodiments, artificial intelligence may be used during different steps. For example, when models are required to be updated, experimental experience may be used to accurately change the models to allow for convergence of a solution.
Output of the models may be displayed on a computer screen or printed for operator review. Data may be stored on a non-volatile apparatus, such as hard disk drive, universal serial bus apparatus or solid-state hard drive.
Embodiments of the disclosure may be used in other endeavors. One such endeavor is during the early stages of exploration and appraisal for a hydrocarbon reserve. Often, data is limited regarding the reserve, and it is highly desired to appraise the reserve correctly as the amount of capital expended on the reserve will depend upon the size and quality of the hydrocarbons potentially recoverable.
At these stages of the project, a significant amount of uncertainty remains with respect to reservoir structure and connectivity. Aspects of the disclosure may be used to address the amount of uncertainty. In embodiments, a model may be generated to generate a predicted fluid distribution from charge simulation. These values may be compared to existing compositional gradients (and advanced laboratory fluid measurements) measured in the existing wells. It may be inferred if the assumed reservoir structure and connectivity is likely or not, based upon the results. In instances, the results will not match the field conditions. If this is encountered, the structural model may be changed.
In further embodiments, the prediction of fluid distributions can also inform local field engineers of the overall development concept for the field. For example, if the reservoir fluid has a high asphaltene content, then the asphaltenes may have precipitated and formed a tar mat at the oil-water contact, thus limiting the aquifer support and, therefore, requiring the drilling of injection wells for pressure support earlier in the life of the field. This is but one non-limiting example that the prediction of fluid distributions may be used for further characterization of field conditions. There are numerous other ways in which the understanding of fluid distributions will impact how a field is developed, including (but not limited to) choice of drainage strategy, placement of wells, and implementation of enhanced oil recovery techniques, among others.
In further embodiments, knowledge of fluid distributions can also influence the placement and construction of wells. In embodiments, charge simulation provides a prediction of fluid distributions in unexplored parts of the reservoir and may therefore be used to, for example: 1) target oil pockets, 2) avoid areas of high carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulfide concentration, 3) avoid areas with viscous oil or tar, or 4) target oil trapped below a tar deposit. For real-time geosteering applications the knowledge of fluid distributions, in conjunction with real-time information from fluid mapping while drilling, can be used to anticipate fluid changes ahead of the bit and actively steer the well accordingly.
Embodiments of the disclosure may also be used in completion and stimulation activities. In one example embodiment, once drilled, a well must be completed and, potentially, stimulated to initiate production. Fluid distribution information can be used to select sections of the well to complete (e.g., optimum perforation locations) and to design stimulation treatments.
Embodiments of the disclosure may also be used in production activities. The mixing of different fluids can give rise to flow assurance challenges, such as asphaltene deposition, wax/scale formation, and near-wellbore condensate drop-out. Again, quantitative knowledge about pre-production fluid distributions in the reservoir may be used to anticipate such challenges by simulating production scenarios over the production life of a field. Such production simulation is routinely done in the industry, but the advantage of combining this with charge simulation is the improved accuracy of the initial fluid state in the reservoir before production, thus leading to more accurate production predictions.

At 306, petroleum systems data may also be used as an input to the dynamic charge simulation at 308. Non-limiting data that may be used includes reservoir age, source rock, charge sequence and charge location.
Evaluation of the data provided from 302, 304 and 306 may be developed, as described above, by performing a dynamic simulation of fluid charge. This evaluation may provide hypothetical data as to the state of charge of the hydrocarbon field. The dynamic simulation 308 may be used in several instances. At 310, the data may be used in field development planning. At 312, the data may be used in well placement and construction. At 314, the data may be used in completion and stimulation. At 316, the data may be used in production activities.
As will be understood, the greater the amount of data obtained from field development planning 310, well placement and construction activities 312, completion and stimulation activities 314, or production activities 316, will produce more accurate results.
Aspects of the disclosure address difficulties that are present with conventional identification and analysis technologies. The aspects of the disclosure provide for a fundamental understanding of how fluids enter a reservoir. The analysis techniques also answer how these fluids mix with other fluids that may be in the hydrocarbon field. The distributions predicted are achieved by imposing and modeling the physics of fluid flow through processes such as diffusion and convection.
