Using an example of channel fracturing treatments, we show how the productivity index, effective fracture conductivity, and skin factor are sensitive to variations in pumping schedule design and pulsing strategy.\u0000 We perform fracturing simulations using an advanced high-resolution multiphysics model that includes coupled 2D hydrodynamics with geomechanics (pseudo-3D, or P3D, model), 2D transport of materials with tracking temperature exposure history, in-situ kinetics, and a hindered settling model, which includes the effect of fibers. For all simulated fracturing treatments, we accurately solve a problem of 3D planar fracture closure on heterogenous spatial distribution of solids, estimate 2D profiles of fracture width and stresses applied to proppants, and, as a result, obtain the complex and heterogenous shape of fracture conductivity with highly conductive cells owing to the presence of channels. Then, we also evaluate reservoir fluid inflows from a reservoir to fracture walls and further along a fracture to limited-size wellbore perforations. Solution of a productivity problem at the finest scale allows us to accurately evaluate key productivity characteristics: productivity index, dimensional and dimensionless effective conductivity, skin factor, and folds of increase, as well as the total production rate at any day and for any pressure drawdown in a well during well production life.\u0000 We develop a workflow to understand how productivity of a fracture depends on variation of the pumping schedule and facilitate taking appropriate decisions about the best job design. The presented workflow gives insight into how new computationally efficient methods can enable fast, convenient, and accurate evaluation of the material placement design for maximum production with cost-saving channel fracturing technology.","PeriodicalId":11052,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Thu, October 14, 2021","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84841522","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 key difference between guar-based gels and synthetic gels is a lower viscosity rating that results in a significant increase in the fracture length and an improved ability to transport high concentration of proppant due to its thixotropic properties (the ability of a substance to lower its viscosity as a result of a mechanical impact and grow its viscosity when still). When gel is destroyed throughout the fracture after the Frac is completed the synthetic option allows for a cleaner fracture and helps remove all residual matter from the fracture. Another important consideration is that guar shipments from India make Russian oil vulnerable to price, foreign exchange and availability fluctuations. If guar crops experience a bad year or Indian farmers determine that the market should be refocused on cotton or other areas (i.e. not guar), the guar prices in Russian would likely skyrocket.\u0000 The authors worked as a team to come up with a list of clear recommendations to develop both new and existing wells for Lower Cretaceous collectors of the Vartovsk and Megion suites such as AV1 (1-2) and BV8(0) to increase production and reduce capital costs.

Stukan","doi":"10.2118/206591-ms","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2118/206591-ms","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Nowadays acidizing became one of the most common approaches used to increase the hydrocarbons production from carbonate reservoirs. An acid solution injected under pressures below the formation fracture pressures dissolves the rock matrix and, thus, facilitates the fluid flow.\u0000 However, the overall treatment efficiency is crucially dependent on the acid composition and injection scenario, since the different dissolution patterns are created depending on the effective reaction rate (i.e. acid composition and matrix mineralogy) of the reactive fluid and the fluid injection rate. At slow injection rates, when the acid is spent before penetrating deep into the rock, the face dissolution scenario is observed. On the other hand, fast injection results in uniform distribution of the acid along the treatment zone and similar uniform dissolution of the matrix. The best result from production improvement point of view is achieved when the acid creates a set of thin channels - the so-called wormholes. This optimum regime corresponds to the minimum in the pore volume to breakthrough (PVBT) dependence on injection rate (Fredd, 1998; Zhang, 2021). Where PVBT is defined as the amount of treatment fluid (measured in core pore volumes) required to be injected before the appearance of macroscopic flow channel linking the opposite faces of the core. Thus, since the optimal acid composition and the injection rate are determined by geology and lithology of the reservoir, to achieve the best effect, each treatment should be preceded by experiments on representative rock samples.\u0000 In addition to that, the parameters to be optimized for a typical acidizing job also include the sequence of injected fluids and the amount of the fluid to be injected (Yudin A., 2021), which requires an extensive laboratory study. Unfortunately, the amount of the core material available is usually not sufficient for such a comprehensive laboratory analysis. Moreover, the destructive nature of acidizing experiments imposes the fundamental limitation: experiments are performed on different core samples, which makes the results less conclusive.","PeriodicalId":11052,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Thu, October 14, 2021","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87151303","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}

A combination of understanding the reservoir and applying different completion techniques is necessary to verify the best way to drill, complete, and produce the basin.\u0000 In 2012, DirectNeft drilled the first well specifically targeting the Domanik interval in the Volga Ural Basin. This discovery well tested oil from multiple horizons within the 350+ m (1150’) thick \"Domanikoid\" section. In the broad Upper Frasnian interval, Well A was the first successful hydraulic fracture treatment in the Domanik. The subsequent Well B, seven miles to the northwest, penetrated a largely identical Domanik section and was also fractured and tested in multiple horizons, including the Upper Frasnian. Well tests, logs and core analysis have identified two primary and two secondary productive intervals within the Domanik.\u0000 These two wells provided the first sets of modern logs in the area, which are critical to better understand the reservoirs. In addition, the coring of key intervals and extensive analysis of those cores have proven invaluable in understanding the nature of the reservoirs. Existing well control and seismic data clearly indicate the thick section of Domanik rocks extends throughout the area. The presence and viability of oil saturated Domanik low permeability reservoirs has been confirmed by the two wells. Oil flows have been recovered from perforated intervals of the Tournaisian, Zavolzhian, Famennian and Upper Frasnian.\u0000 Based on these exploration findings, subsequent operations expanded the project by drilling four horizontal wells in 2017-2018, three of which have been completed. Objectives are multi-fold and included further delineation of the four productive intervals by refining the understanding of geologic, petrophysical and geomechanical models that influence the completion and stimulation operations, ultimately impacting production. Early results from the completed wells have shown a rapid improvement in production results, showing that the multidisciplinary workflow is successful. Future tests incorporate significant increase of entry points to further prove the success of the play.\u0000 This paper describes the methodology and modifications implemented based on improved understanding of the reservoir, including the use of multi-stage completion techniques. Also discussed are operational issues related to implementing state-of-the-art completion techniques including sliding sleeves, coil-tubing operations, jet cutting operations and plug and perf operations.","PeriodicalId":11052,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Thu, October 14, 2021","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74034401","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}
