Full textThis work intends to propose innovative solutions for the exploitation of heterogeneous models in engineering domains. It pays a special attention to a case study related to one specific engineering domain: petroleum exploration. Experts deal with many petroleum exploration issues by building and exploiting three-dimensional representations of underground (called earth models). These models rest on a large amount of heterogeneous data generated every day by several different exploration activities such as seismic surveys, well drilling, well log interpretation and many others. Considering this, end-users wish to be able to retrieve and re-use at any moment information related to data and interpretations in the various fields of expertise considered along the earth modeling chain. Integration approaches for engineering domains needs to be dissociated from data sources, formats and software tools that are constantly evolving. Our solution is based on semantic annotation, a current Web Semantic technique for adding knowledge to resources by means of semantic tags. The "semantics" attached by means of some annotation is defined by ontologies, corresponding to "formal specifications of some domain conceptualization". In order to complete engineering model exploitation, it is necessary to provide model integration. Correspondence between models in the ontology level is made possible thanks to semantic annotation. An architecture, which maps concepts from local ontologies to some global ontology, then ensures that users can have an integrated and shared global view of each specific domain involved in the engineering process. A prototype was implemented considering the seismic interpretation activity, which corresponds to the first step of the earth modeling workflow. The performed experiments show that, thanks to our solution, experts can formulate queries and retrieve relevant answers using their knowledge-level vocabulary

Resumo: Apresenta-se nesta dissertação um estudo sobre o comportamento transitório da pressão em poços inclinados submetidos a teste de poço. A partir de referências disponíveis na literatura, são apresentadas soluções analíticas e semi-analíticas, onde é adotado o modelo de escoamento uniforme como condição de contorno no poço. Neste estudo é considerado um reservatório de extensão radial infinita com limites verticais impermeáveis. A partir da solução analítica são apresentadas curvas típicas para diferentes ângulos de inclinação do poço e espessura adimensional da formação. As análises das curvas típicas indicam três regimes de escoamento: radial inicial, radial de transição e radial infinito, onde, no melhor conhecimento deste autor, o regime de escoamento radial de transição é introduzido nesta dissertação. A partir da solução semi-analítica, derivada no domínio de Laplace, são desenvolvidas assíntotas para tempo-curto e tempo-longo. Esta dissertação ainda apresenta um procedimento alternativo para interpretar os dados transitórios da pressão em poços inclinados. O desenvolvimento deste procedimento foi baseado na técnica TDS (Tiab's Direct Synthesis), onde é possível interpretar os dados de pressão através de uma análise direta da curva de derivada. As soluções aqui apresentadas fornecem uma alternativa acessível à completa modelagem numérica - utilizada em pacotes comerciais para interpretação de teste de pressão
Abstract: A study on the transient pressure behavior it is presented in this dissertation for slanted well test analysis. From references available in the literature, analytical and semi-analytical solutions are presented for the uniform flow boundary condition at the well. In this study is considered an infinite radial extent reservoir limited with vertical impermeable boundaries. Type curves are presented for different slant angles of the well and dimensionless formation thickness. From the analysis of type curves are observed three flow regimes: early time radial flow, transition radial flow and late time infinite-acting radial flow. For the best knowledge of the author, the transition radial flow regime is introduced in this dissertation for the first time. From the semi-analytical solution, derived in the Laplace domain, asymptotic solutions are developed for early-time and late-time. It is also presented an alternative procedure for interpreting pressure transient data in slanted wells. The development of this procedure was based on the TDS (Tiab's Direct Synthesis) technique, by where it is possible to interpret the pressure data through a direct analysis of the derived curve. The solutions presented here provide a feasible alternative to full numerical modeling - used in commercial packages for the interpretation of pressure tests

Full textIn this study, imbibition experiments are used to explain the significant fluid loss, often more than 70%, of injected water during well stimulation and flowback in the context of natural gas production from shale formations. Samples from a 180 ft. long section of a vertical well were studied via spontaneous and forced imbibition experiments, at lab-scale, on small samples with characteristic dimensions of a few cm; in order to quantify the water imbibed by the complex multi-porosity shale system. The imbibition process is, typically, characterized by a distinct transition from an initial linear rate (vs. square root of time) to a much slower imbibition rate at later times. These observations along with contact angle measurements provide an insight into the wettability characteristics of the shale surface. Using these observations, together with an assumed geometry of the fracture system, has made it possible to estimate the distance travelled by the injected water into the formation at field scale.
Shale characterization experiments including permeability measurements, total organic carbon (TOC) analysis, pore size distribution (PSD) and contact angle measurements were also performed and were combined with XRD measurements in order to better understand the mass transfer properties of shale. The experimental permeabilities measured in the direction along the bedding plane (10 –1–10–2 mD) and in the vertical direction (~10–4 mD) are orders of magnitude higher than the matrix permeabilities of these shale sample (10–5 to 10 –8 mD). This implies that the fastest flow in a formation is likely to occur in the horizontal direction, and indicates that the flow of fluids through the formation occurs predominantly through the fracture and micro-fracture network, and hence that these are the main conduits for gas recovery. The permeability differences among samples from various depths can be attributed to different organic matter content and mineralogical characteristics, likely attributed to varying depositional environments. The study of these properties can help ascertain the ideal depth for well placement and perforation.
Forced imbibition experiments have been carried out to better understand the phenomena that take place during well stimulation under realistic reservoir conditions. Imbibition experiments have been performed with real and simulated frac fluids, including deionized (DI) water, to establish a baseline, in order to study the impact on imbibition rates resulting from the presence of ions/additives in the imbibing fluid. Ion interactions with shales are studied using ion chromatography (IC) to ascertain their effect on imbibition induced porosity and permeability change of the samples. It has been found that divalent cations such as calcium and anions such as sulfates (for concentrations in excess of 600 ppm) can significantly reduce the permeability of the samples. It is concluded, therefore, that their presence in stimulating fluids can affect the capillarity and fluid flow after stimulation. We have also studied the impact of using fluoro-surfactant additives during spontaneous and forced imbibition experiments. A number of these additives have been shown to increase the measured contact angles of the shale samples and the fluid recovery from them, thus making them an ideal candidate for additives to use. Their interactions with the shale are further characterized using the Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) technique in order to measure their hydrodynamic radius to compare it with the pore size of the shale sample.

Full textThe objective of this study is threefold: 1) Build a dual-porosity, geological reservoir model of Niobrara formation in the Wishbone Section of the DJ Basin. 2) Use the geologic static model to construct a compositional model to assess performance of Well 1N in the Wishbone Section. 3) Compare the modeling results of this study with the result from an eleven-well modeling study (Ning, 2017) of the same formation which included the same well. The geologic model is based on discrete fracture network (DFN) model (Grechishnikova 2017) from an outcrop study of Niobrara formation.
This study is part of a broader program sponsored by Anadarko and conducted by the Reservoir Characterization Project (RCP) at Colorado School of Mines. The study area is the Wishbone Section (one square mile area), which has eleven horizontal producing wells with initial production dating back to September 2013. The project also includes a nine-component time-lapse seismic. The Wishbone section is a low-permeability faulted reservoir containing liquid-rich light hydrocarbons in the Niobrara chalk and Codell sandstone.
The geologic framework was built by Grechishnikova (2017) using seismic, microseismic, petrophysical suite, core and outcrop. I used Grechishnikova’s geologic framework and available petrophysical and core data to construct a 3D reservoir model. The 3D geologic model was used in the hydraulic fracture modeling software, GOHFER, to create a hydraulic fracture interpretation for the reservoir simulator and compared to the interpretation built by Alfataierge (2017). The reservoir numerical simulator incorporated PVT from a well within the section to create the compositional dual-porosity model in CMG with seven lumped components instead of the thirty-two individual components. History matching was completed for the numerical simulation, and rate transient analysis between field and actual production are compared; the results were similar. The history matching parameters are further compared to the input parameters, and Ning’s (2017) history matching parameters.
The study evaluated how fracture porosity and rock compaction impacts production. The fracture porosity is a major contributor to well production and the gas oil ratio. The fracture porosity is a major sink for gathering the matrix flow contribution. The compaction numerical simulations show oil production increases with compaction because of the increased compaction drive. As rock compaction increases, permeability and porosity decreases. How the numerical model software, CMG, builds the hydraulic fracture, artificially increases the original oil-in-place and decreases the recovery factor. Furthermore, grid structure impacts run-time and accuracy to the model. Finally, outcrop adds value to the subsurface model with careful qualitative sedimentology and structural extrapolations to the subsurface by providing understanding between the wellbore and seismic data scales.

Full textThis thesis describes the advantages of investigating gas shales reservoir description on a nanoscale by using petrographic analysis and core plug petrophysics to characterize the Barnett, Marcellus and Mancos shale plays. The results from this analysis now indicate their effects on the reservoir quality. Helium porosity measurements at confining pressure were carried out on core plugs from this shale plays. SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) imaging was done on freshly fractured gold-coated surfaces to indicate pore structure and grain sizes. Electron Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy was done on freshly fractured carbon-coated surfaces to tell the mineralogy. Extra-thin sections were made to view pore spaces, natural fractures and grain distribution.
The results of this study show that confining pressure helium porosity values to be 9.6%, 5.3% and 1.7% in decreasing order for the samples from the Barnett, Mancos and Marcellus shale respectively. EDS X-ray spectroscopy indicates that the Barnett and Mancos have a high concentration of quartz (silica-content); while the Mancos and Marcellus contain calcite. Thin section analysis reveals obvious fractures in the Barnett, while Mancos and Marcellus have micro-fractures.
Based on porosity, petrographic analysis and mineralogy measurements on the all the samples, the Barnett shale seem to exhibit the best reservoir quality.
