2. Content
• Introduction (Field Development Plan, Rate of
Production, Oil Recovery)
– Acquiring maximum reservoir area
– Maintaining reservoir properties
– Recovery techniques selection criteria
• Reference
3. Introduction
• The objective of field development plan is to
increase the rate of production
• How we can develop the field:
– Acquire maximum reservoir area (number of
wells)
– Maintain reservoir properties (avoid development
of void space)
– Pressure maintenance with the help of recovery
techniques
4. Acquiring maximum area of a
Reservoir
• Estimate the total recoverable reserves of a
Reservoir (condition is it should be commercially
viable)
• Base on above data estimate the life of a
reservoir, meanwhile plan the number of wells to
be drilled for extracting the HC within a required
time.
• Note: some times the life of a reservoir is also
decided by the regulatory bodies of a respected
countries (tax concession issued from national oil
policy (countries)).
6. Maintaining reservoir properties
• Reservoir properties includes rock and fluid properties
of a reservoir
• The major properties which has to be maintain are as
follows:
– Pressure (reservoir (void space) and pore pressure): this
leads to
• Permeability heterogeneity
• Alteration in the reservoir area
• Reservoir damage (decrease in fracture pressure of a reservoir).
– This leads to migration of HC from the reservoir
• Note: to maintain the aforementioned properties the
recovery techniques are to be used.
8. Maintaining rate of production
• DST
• Hydraulic fracturing (Propants)
• Acidizing
• Control of sand production (Gravel packing,
Resin injection)
• Drawdown and Buildup (aim to maintain K
and access of damage (time))
