Description
Summary:7% OOIP if the gas/oil ratio limit is increased to 10,000
at gas/oil ratios higher than 1500 SCF/STB, and the
even at low oil production rate of 100 STB/D because of the
from a thin oil-rim reservoir, X3/X4 in the SSBI field,
gascap. Simulation results indicate that oil recovery from
horizontal wells are completed at, or as near as possible to,
investigate the performance of a horizontal well producing
Malaysia. A heterogeneous model was used which honored the
oil recovery at 15 years production of 6% OOIP, compared to
reservoir heterogeneity as deduced from logs. Simulation
results indicate that gas and water cresting are inevitable
SCF/STB, with negligible oil resaturation losses into the
the current gas/oil ratio limit of 1500 SCF/STB results in an
the oil-water contact.
the X3/X4 reservoir would be increased if wells are produced
