<em>The success of the discovery of new structure Akasia Bagus with potential L layer in 2009 at PT Pertamina EP's Jatibarang Field was followed up by the drilling infill wells with Plan of Development (POD) mechanism which is currently in the process of drilling the last well. The basis of the L layer hydrocarbon calculation in place on the POD is a static analysis. The wells currently produced are still able to flow with natural flow and enough production data since 2009 this structure was found. This study will present an analysis of production in the L layer of Akasia Bagus structure for Original Oil In Place (OOIP) updates using the conventional material balance method and then carry out the best development strategy to optimize oil production. Economic analysis is also carried out for reference in making decision on which scenario to choose. The conventional material balance method gets an OOIP value of 17.36 MMSTB, with the drive energy ratio being 5:3:2 for water influx : fluid expansion : gas cap expansion. Three (3) production optimization scenarios were analyzed, the results showed that the addition of 2 infill wells reached Recovery Factot (RF) of oil up to 23% of OOIP, minimal water production and attractive economic results.</em>

Hydrocarbon Expulsion

In order to calculate the efficiency of hydrocarbon expulsion by material balance method, we analyzed and corrected the geochemical parameters of five source rock samples. The hydrocarbon generation kinetic parameters of these samples were calibrated by the model of limited parallel first order reaction, and then these were extrapolated with the burial history and thermal history, then we got the hydrocarbon-generating section. Combined with the corrected geochemical parameters calculate the generating hydrocarbon amounts and expulsive hydrocarbon amounts. The result shows that: expulsion efficiency of hydrocarbon source rocks in this research were mainly between 59.1% -91.8%. It is determined by maturity (Ro), type of organic matter and pyrolysis parameters S1、S2.

The Relationship

Abstract Determination of gas in place (GIP) is among the hotspot issues in the field of oil/gas reservoir engineering. The conventional material balance method and other relevant approaches have found widespread application in estimating GIP of a gas reservoir or well-controlled gas reserves, but they are normally not cost-effective. To calculate GIP of abnormally pressured gas reservoirs economically and accurately, this paper deduces an iteration method for GIP estimation from production data, taking into consideration the pore shrinkage of reservoir rock and the volume expansion of irreducible water, and presents a strategy for selecting an initial iteration value of GIP. The approach, termed DMBM-APGR (dynamic material balance method for abnormally pressured gas reservoirs) here, is based on two equations: dynamic material balance equation and static material balance equation for overpressured gas reservoirs. The former delineates the relationship between the quasipressure at bottomhole pressure and the one at average reservoir pressure, and the latter reflects the relationship between average reservoir pressure and cumulative gas production, both of which are rigidly demonstrated in the paper using the basic theory of gas flow through porous media and material balance principle. The method proves effective with several numerical cases under various production schedules and a field case under a variable rate/variable pressure schedule, and the calculation error of GIP does not go beyond 5% provided that the production data are credible. DMBM-APGR goes for gas reservoirs with abnormally high pressure as well as those with normal pressure in virtue of its strict theoretical foundation, which not only considers the compressibilities of rock and bound water, but also reckons with the changes in production rate and variations of gas properties as functions of pressure. The method may serve as a valuable and reliable tool in determining gas reserves.

<p><em>YS reservoir has </em><em>data of gas initial in place (GIIP)</em><em> with a volumetric method of 3,476 B</em><em>scf</em><em>. </em><em>Because of improvement of data, GIIP</em><em> </em><em>can be</em><em> </em><em>evaluated using material balance method</em><em>.</em><em> Then the production of wet gas will be forcasted until below economic limit. </em><em>The PV</em><em>T</em><em> data that needs to be calculated in this study is the gas </em><em>and water </em><em>compressibility factor and the formation volume factor </em><em>each</em><em> year.

It can be said that </em><em>GIIP result using </em><em>the material balance method and the straight line material balance method</em><em> </em><em>is accurate because after being evaluated using </em><em>volumetric</em><em> method, it only has a small percentage difference.</em><em> </em><em>Then from the decline curve and Trial Error and X2 – Chisquare Test analysis, the decline curve is exponential with Di at 1</em><em>,</em><em>103 / month.

<p>Determination of the initial oil content of a reservoir starts from exploration activities. In the initial stage, the determination of the initial oil reserves is determined. This aims to determine whether the project can be profitable for the company or not. Over time the determination of the initial contents of the oil continues to be carried out to improve the accuracy of calculations using the material balance method.<br />In the reservoir "ADZ" the type of reservoir is an undersaturated reservoir. This is because the initial pressure in 1980 was 2762.74 psia, while the bubble point pressure was 1625.8 psia. Until 2015 this reservoir was still above the bubble point pressure with a pressure of 1783.55 psia, this reservoir also had no gas cap in the initial conditions. The drive mechanism that works on this field is the solution for the gas drive.<br />Calculation of the initial content of oil in this final project uses 4 methods, namely volumetric method, material balance method, straight line, and Mbal software. Using the volumetric method, the initial oil reserves obtained at the place amounted to 174063462 STB, while the calculation of the initial oil reserves in place using the material balance method was 176497285 STB. The percentage difference in the initial content of oil between the methods is &lt;5%.</p>
