In order for the development plan to be considered effective and successful, two main parameters have to be studied and evaluated, time, and cost. The conventional method to stimulate tight carbonate reservoirs is bull heading acid fracturing treatment, which is costly and time consuming for multi stages wells, not excluding the high treatment pressure requirement and risk associated with it. Conventional plug and perf technique includes e-line operations to perforate with guns, acid fracturing treatment by bullheading, and e-line operations to set plugs for every single stage.\u0000 A novel acid-soluble abrasive material, was implanted and tested as an economical and time effective alternative solution. The technique involves perforating through cemented liners utilizing the abrasive material flowed by low volume acid surgesqueeze. By using this technique time and cost associated with the conventional plug and perf technique, can be reduced and achieve even better result with less cost and time.\u0000 The wells that were stimulated with this technique, were tested and proven superior in terms of production rate over the conventional plug and perf technique in the short term.

The growth of active operations required and produced more data from D&WO operations. With very large number of rig activities daily transmitting more than 60,000 real-time data points every second, it became necessary to understand and utilize this Big Data in order to predict drilling troubles and discover hidden knowledge. The adaption of the industrial Revolution (IR) 4.0 contributed to the use of advanced and novel approaches such as Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) models. However, those models require continues improvement as drilling data change. When using the industrial standard and adapted Wellsite Information Transfer Specification Markup Language (WITSML) based Big Data environment, the task to monitor the performance of a model at a large scale becomes challenging due to common reasons such as a large number of wells, different models being deployed and different data stored in different systems.\u0000 In this paper, a new approach is introduced using WITSML based Big Data environment. The methods employed utilize an advanced engine to monitor and evaluate active AI/ML models at a large scale. The engine utilizes anomaly detection methods to monitor abnormal behaviors of the models such as sudden high rate of alerts per day/well or a sudden drop in true event detection. The paper will also demonstrate how such technology can help in early detection of model's decay signs or sudden changes in real-time data quality.\u0000 The solution improved and automated the process of monitoring and maintaining of AI/ML models in the Drilling domain.

In fact, unsuccessfully optimizing the mud weight could lead to wellbore collapse. Within the oil industry, Mogi and Mohr-Coulomb models are the most-practiced failure criterion used in predicting critical mud weight.\u0000 This paper was aimed at inspecting these models regarding mud weight prediction. A new comparison concept was also developed. Furthermore, the different stochastic perspectives were carried out in the study. Based on field data, the required mud weight was found using the Mogi and Mohr-Coulomb failure criteria. The results suggested that the predicted pressure from the Mogi model is considerably close to the real mud weight. The study is also developed using the new pragmatic comparison criteria called the breakout width.\u0000 The predicted mud weight from both models was separately utilized to obtain the width of shear failure (breakout) by applying the simple analytical model. The results revealed the breakout dimension was a bit over-predicted with respect to the Mohr criteria. Moreover, the optimum mud weight was a function of input parameters, which include stresses and rock properties.\u0000 The knowledge of such parameters depends effectively on the quality of the parameters. The deterministic approach was presented to display the influence of each parameter by developing tornado diagrams. The analysis was defined that the maximum horizontal stress is the most influential parameter for collapse pressure prediction for both models. In addition, overburden stress has a considerable effect on the Mogi model and was ignored in the Mohr criteria. Other parameters were also captured in the analysis. In this paper, the probabilistic analysis approach using Monte Carlo simulation was also implemented into wellbore stability models to cover all the significant parameters with their uncertainties rather than certain values for improving predictions.

When applied in the Bahrain Field, this led to the treatment of emulsion in over 100 wells, resulting in a cumulative production gain of over 500,000 barrels to date at negligible cost. Artificial Intelligence (AI) was then employed to identify and understand factors related to emulsion and optimisation treatment programs. Once the wells were treated and the method was confirmed to prove emulsion existence, a focused approach was carried out to understand it further. Wells were categorised based on their production response to standard demulsifier bullheading.\u0000 In addition to a variety of well parameters, this data was used to build a machine learning model that helped identify patterns with regards to problematic zones, properties of wells with emulsion, and the best treatment method for each well. The results of the study were rather substantial and resulted in numerous new insights. Firstly, a model was built to predict the sustainability and economics of expected bullheading job treatments. This is currently being used to rank the priority of wells for either bullheading treatment or continuous chemical injection. Once the wells were classified into basic sub groups and sorted by zones, geographic analysis was carried out to identify wells with emulsion being formed as a result of waterflooding. This led to further insight into the nature of emulsion blocks, where in some cases, although it was found that these blocks exist downhole, traces of emulsion will flow to the surface and can have a unique signature.\u0000 This paper discusses in further detail insights into emulsion and the different types of AI algorithms used to answer questions raised as a result of the discovery. The necessity of using machine learning cannot be overstated enough and the observations made in the paper could not have been found if it were purely by observed by the naked eye.\u0000 The topic of emulsion is highly understudied, and the concept of using the emulsion detection calculation was not published before.

Wells in Jafurah basin are generally completed with 5,000 feet horizontal lateral and up to 33 stages with 4 to 5 clusters per stage. Increasing the number of clusters per stage in such completions could lead to cost and efficiency optimization, but also increases the risk of having non-stimulated clusters, considering geomechanical heterogeneity, and without providing sufficient pumping rate. Thus introducing diversion techniques becomes a necessity in this unconventional play to optimize cluster efficiency, improve operational efficiency, and thus reduce cost.\u0000 Near wellbore chemical particulates and intra-well perforation mechanical diversion techniques from degradable materials found their wide application in different unconventional assets. A mega-diversion experiment with both techniques took place in one of the wells, where a damaged section of the lateral did not allow regular PnP operations at the toe. Laboratory tests before operation ensured degradation of the material is within operational thresholds for positive isolation. The lateral section below the casing deformation (1,200 ft in the toe section) was planned with 30 clusters in one single stage, with the intrawell diversion technique. Another eight stages in 1,200 feet were attempted with a standard five cluster stages as a baseline. The remaining 2,400 feet of the lateral were stimulated with eight stages, 10 clusters per stage, and sequential application of both intrawell mechanical and near wellbore diversion technologies. Other wells in the area, which had damage in the casing, were also completed with mechanical diverters.\u0000 The 1,200 ft lateral section was successfully stimulated without additional well intervention operations with a selected diversion technique. Proppant placement challenges were encountered in the regular five cluster stages with significant improvement in the subsequent 10 cluster stages introducing diversion. Positive diversion indication was confirmed by surface pressure observations and mainly proppant placement success. Multiple instances of non-typical pressure behavior were observed during placement of the mega-diversion stages. This pressure behavior is the subject of technical analysis and results will feed into the future design strategy.\u0000 The intrawell mechanical diversion technique showed positive diversion indications in different wells in Saudi Arabia, with good repeatability of slickwater propped fracturing treatment success. This technique could be utilized whenever wellbore accessibility challenges are encountered, or during refracturing application cases.

Proper understanding of reservoir fluid composition and their spatial distribution helps define our resource base and forecast field production profile. In a gas accumulation with substantial vertical span, a composition gradient is expected, where heavier molecules gravitate towards the bottom end and lighter components' concentration increases towards the top of the column. However, in the literature some investigators have reported both condensate content and heavy hydrocarbon components decrease with increasing depth and temperature. Their observations appear to be contradicting the expected gravity driven compositional gradient as per thermodynamic equilibrium.\u0000 In this paper, we have done an integrated areal and vertical composition trend analysis of some gas condensate reservoirs across a big area i.e. a three-dimensional trend analysis. Field wide areal and vertical reservoir anhydrite content has been mapped. The areal composition gradient that defies expected gravity driven composition gradient, while honoring vertical thermodynamic equilibrium has been reconciled. Post depositional fluid/rock thermochemical reaction and low areal diffusivity has resulted in this areal variation. In-situ H2S generation has been enhanced where reservoir deepens and temperature increases, thus overcoming the activation energy hump. H2S concentration increase has happened at the expense of the hydrocarbon concentration as per the thermochemical reaction stoichiometry. It was found that the vertical compositional gradient is consistent with thermodynamic equilibrium calculations. Some observed trend anomalies have been explained using rock composition and geological information.\u0000 Thus, a three dimensional compositional gradient was deciphered for reservoirs with such behavior. The aim of this study has been to provide a better quality forecast for reserves, rate, recovery and composition mix for gas condensate fields.","PeriodicalId":10908,"journal":{"name":"Day 2 Tue, March 19, 2019","volume":"191 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83458670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The impact of these factors on proppant transport performance from different perspective was studied. Fracture slot model was designed and built to observe easily the effects of perforation density and fracture orientation. The results of this experimental work show that limited-entry perforation technique has significant impact on proppant transport within fractures where single top perforation had better proppant placement than multi-perforation system. Fracture area was approximately propped with 66% and 48% using top perforation and multi-perforation system, respectively. Slurry with high shear rate has a negative effect on the proppant equilibrium dune level (EDL) and fracture propped area (FPA). Fracturing treatment using high shear rate causes high pressure drop in the fracture that leads to decreasing EDL by 17% and fracture propped area by 23% comparing to using low shear rate. Using large proppant size (20/40) leads to form high EDL and FPA compared to 100 mesh size.
