Reservoir water for drinking water production may undergo major short-term and long-term quality changes. These are results of natural processes in the water body and of the water's quality entering and leaving the reservoir. Long term quality changes are due to management of catchment areas, but also to a considerable extent by external impacts like climate change. Short term quality changes are impacted by extreme events like rain storms after drought periods, which might also be a result of climate change. Furthermore, short- and mid-term quality changes are impacted by reservoir management, which also influences the ecological state of rivers downstream the reservoir. The purpose of our work is to develop a decision support tool for reservoir management which takes into account short-, mid- and long-term factors for water quality change. With the tool it is intended to simulate not only water quality, but also management impact on flood risk prevention and drinking water quality (treatment efficiency and costs) and to assist decision making for reservoir management.

Abstract Daily production compliance is fundamental to sustain reservoir management excellence and ultimately achieve an optimum oil recovery. The production activities execution is critical to adhere to the reservoir management guidelines and best practices. It is a more challenging task in brownfields due to the limitation of controlling system and limited access especially in offshore fields. A timely and efficient approach is undoubtedly necessary to enhance production efficiency and compliance. An integrated and automated tool has been innovated to analyze and report well production status against the guidelines and requirements in a mature offshore field with more than 50 years history. This systematic approach has been developed through integrating the planned rate, daily actual production rate, latest flow tests, and current well performance. Noncompliance is reported automatically on a user defined time scale, including daily, weekly, monthly or any customized time range within the month time. Daily violation report is generated automatically and sent to production operation for prompt adjustments and other requested actions. The automated workflow enables both daily production reporting and production compliance reporting. Daily production reporting is a routine work, which usually takes a lot of time every day. The workflow is capable of reducing 90% of the time comparing to the manual way. Production compliance reporting is currently mainly focusing on the comparison of actual production to planned rate and guideline rate. Any exception will be reported as violation. The violation dashboard summarizes the details based on the user selected time range. On daily basis, an email containing the violation details could be generated and sent to the corresponding teams for corrective actions. In this giant brown field, production GOR is a primary controlling parameter. The latest flow tests have been taken into account to evaluate the gas production compliance. Any violation to the GOR guidelines will be reported in the same communication email for timely correction. With the innovated tool, the violation ratio of the giant offshore field has been successfully reduced and controlled. The usual responding time for corrections has been dramatically reduced from months to days.
