Carbonate reservoirs are increasingly becoming an important resource for hydrocarbon production because they contain the majority of remaining proven oil and gas reserves. In this context, carbonate reservoirs could represent new opportunities; however, there is still a lack of understanding of their subsurface status and characterization. Carbonate reservoirs are more difficult to evaluate than their siliciclastic counterparts because many aspects of carbonate rocks make their seismic image signature complex and difficult to interpret. Moreover, the presence of complex overburden such as shallow gas accumulation can exacerbate amplitude and phase fidelity at the reservoir, which introduces an additional imaging challenge. This makes field development of carbonate reservoirs extremely difficult because field development requires detailed delineation of characteristic karst features to avoid drilling hazards and sudden water breakthrough. In this paper, we demonstrate that a tight integration of signal processing, depth model building, and imaging, as well as near-real-time seismic interpretation feedback, is the key to success for imaging complex carbonate reservoirs with overburden challenges. Our findings show that such an integrated approach can result in a substantially better image, reduced depth uncertainty, and better delineation of karst and fractures. It can also aid in well placement and improve reservoir property modeling.

The article considers а mathematical model of analyzing the feasibility of an upstream project (correctional resistance model), including the formation of redundancy for correction’s implementation aimed at increasing the probability of project execution within the target efficiency metrics to the desired value of the project realization probability, as a result it allows to speak about the transition to a qualitatively new level of cooperation between stakeholders of the project, including through partnerships. This approach is applicable at all stages of oilfield development project lifecycle, for the accumulation and improvement of the project knowledge base, which is valuable for each of the project participants and significantly increases with an integrated approach to the project management.

In pursuit of efficient oil and gas field development, including hard-to-recover reserves, the key objective is to develop and provide the rationale for oil recovery improvement recommendations. This paper presents the results of the use of the workflow process for optimized field development at two field clusters of the Yuzhno-Vyintoiskoye field using geological and reservoir modelling and dynamic marker-based flow production surveillance in producing horizontal wells. The target reservoir of the Yuzhno-Vyntoiskoye deposit is represented by a series of wedge-shaped Neocomian sandstones. Sand bodies typically have a complex geological structure, lateral continuity and a complex distribution of reservoir rocks. Reservoir beds are characterised by low thickness and permeability. The pay zone of the section is a highly heterogeneous formation, which is manifested through vertical variability of the lithological type of reservoir rocks, lithological substitutions, and the high clay content of reservoirs. The target reservoir of the Yuzhno-Vyintoiskoye field is marked by an extensive water-oil zone with highly variable water saturation. According to paleogeographic data, the reservoir was formed in shallow marine settings. Sand deposits are represented by regressive cyclites that are typical for the progressing coastal shallow water (Dulkarnaev et al., 2020). Currently, the reservoir is in production increase cycle. That is why an integrated approach is used in this work to provide a further rationale and creation of the starting points of the reservoir pressure maintenance system impact at new drilling fields to improve oil recovery and secure sustainable oil production and the reserve development rate under high uncertainty.

Abstract Tight Oil Unconventional Reservoirs are challenging when it comes to development and enhancement of production. Transverse Multistage Hydraulic fracturing technique is widely used to maximize production from unconventional reservoirs, however it can be quite challenging when it comes down to execution across longer Tight Oil Horizontal laterals. The paper describes in full the various aspect of technical and operational planning in order to successfully execute highest number of Frac Stages in a well in UAE across a lateral length of 5300 ft This paper will describe an Integrated Field development Study that included building of Geomechanical Model for in-situ stress characterization and rock elastic properties for 3D Hydraulic Fracture Modelling. The fully 3D Hydraulic Fracture model assisted in geometrically spacing, finalizing and optimizing the number of Frac Stages across the horizontal Lateral. In order to optimize the design, specialized cores studies were conducted as part of the process such as Steady State measurements of permeability. In this paper the testing part will be describe in full and how the study was incorporated in the state-of-art Frac Simulator to ensure optimized frac design and realistic deliverable. The paper focusses on the operation planning, execution and efficiency. This includes frac stages execution, pump down plug and perf, number of cluster optimization & cluster spacing, milling, cleanout and flowback. Also in order to quantify the contribution from each stage, tracer services was utilized which will be detailed in the paper. Finally the paper will also cover the Well Testing strategy, which is one of the crucial aspect of the well deliverability. API Lab and Composition Analysis of Oil & Gas Samples were also conducted post fracturing as part of the study. The overall planning and execution of this well will become a guide and will be utilized for future well and frac design, which will be discussed in the paper. This integrated approach will be utilized in planning and designing future wells. The post fracturing data and production data collected from the well will help in further Frac Stage optimization which will lead to overall cost optimization
