| Summary: | 5-spot pattern using horizontal and vertical well systems. affecting waterflood oil recovery, in line with the carried out to evaluate waterflood oil recovery in a 40-acre experimental results of Craig-Geffen-Morse for conventional of reservoir parameters considered. of water-oil mobility ratio. This correlation would be parameters considered, i.e. vertical permeability-horizontal permeability ratio, injection and production rates, and recovery for a particular water-oil mobility ratio. For both reservoir thickness have little effect on waterflood oil system is shown to be higher than that based on a vertical that the water-oil mobility ratio is the dominant parameter The three-dimensional simulation results indicate that the to flow. A correlation has been developed which expresses Two- and three-dimensional simulation studies have been useful for estimating waterflood oil recovery for the range using a horizontal well with maximum horizontal section open vertical and horizontal well systems, oil recovery decreases volumetric sweep efficiency in a 5-spot pattern as a function waterflood. Waterflood oil recovery using a horizontal well well system. In addition, maximum oil recovery is obtained with increasing water-oil mobility ratio. It is concluded |
