Therefore, this paper has identified trapping index parameters to evaluate CO2 storage capacity in the Niger Delta of Nigeria. This was carried out by assessing two major trapping mechanisms that affect the efficiency of the carbon injection and storage within the saline aquifer.\u0000 In this work, we conducted a numerical simulation to compare the CO2 storage capacities of two reservoirs with saline aquifers. We considered some minor reservoirs not suitable for commercial development due to their minimal oil in place values and net pay thickness of less than 30 ft. These reservoirs are charged with aquifers which were simulated to study the storage capacity of CO2 at downhole conditions. The impact of the reservoir structure, permeability and pressure regimes are some of the parameters that were observed to affect CO2 storage capacity.\u0000 CO2 was continuously injected into the aquifers via injector wells at 80% of their fracture pressure. Crestal monitoring wells ensured the pressure distribution around the cap rock did not exceed fracture pressure limits. The results were compared and simulation-based inferences were made for each reservoir.\u0000 The results showed similar migration patterns for each reservoir however there was a significant difference in the residual trapping mechanism of both reservoirs. This impacted the overall CO2 storage capacity at the end of the simulation run. The results obtained from this work can be applied to other reservoirs in the Niger Delta where commercial development is not expected due to their hydrocarbon in-place volumes.","PeriodicalId":407977,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Wed, August 02, 2023","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126822458","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}

Green Energy International Limited, the operator, successfully implemented the first phase of the field development between 2015 and 2017. This was followed up with a 2nd phase in 2022. The field currently produces circa 11000 bopd.\u0000 Due to its proximity to the shoreline, an amphibious production and evacuation methodology was implemented. This consists of batch production into onshore tanks, a subsequent evacuation into offshore shuttle tanker via an installed 6\", 6 Km offshore pipeline and final transportation to a 3rd party FSO facility. The end of the offshore leg is connected to a PLEM (Pipeline End Manifold) which acts as interface between marine pipeline and the submarine hose system. The mooring systems consists of 2 gravity anchors (5tons each ~ port and starboard); 200m steel anchor chains; 40m sling wire; 20m sling wire; and a 100m pick up rope.\u0000 However, the offshore environment experiences a significant adverse weather condition between March and December that peaks between June and November every year. Often, it could take professional divers up to 5 days to pick up rope from the seabed depending on weather condition. There were cases of incessant twisting, tension and curling as the hose is exposed to swinging by ocean swell and current leading to loss of operational integrity of the offshore system. Restoring the integrity of the system led to significant operational downtimes as high as 20 days per year; a situation that was not sustainable for a marginal field producer.\u0000 The GEIL engineering and operations team developed and implemented several vintages of design modifications over time to mitigate these concerns. The team realized that the most challenging part of resolving the hose swinging issue was finding a way to keep it fixed, in such a way that the hose end does not move under any weather condition(s). To achieve this, the team designed and installed a Crossbar + Buoy system. The Crossbar was installed on the seabed, while ensuring the height is above the water surface. A boat is used to unhook and hook up the cargo hose to the Crossbar before and after every shuttle loading respectively. This allows for a more efficient pick up and transfer of hose to tanker (10 mins) by professional divers while eliminating the challenges with hose twisting which usually results in hose curling around the PLEM and incessant shutdown from the EPF. Luckily for our operations, there was no spill recorded in these scenarios due the effective communication between EPF and the marine team, and timely shutdown of crude flow from the EPF.\u0000 This paper aims to highlight the seasonal integrity challenges faced by the Otakikpo offshore evacuation system, its effect on operational excellence and the various stages of the elegant solutions developed and implemented.","PeriodicalId":407977,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Wed, August 02, 2023","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125304883","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}

However, the major drawback is that IONPs quickly agglomerate to diminish their high surface energy, particularly in reservoir brine. Hence, losing their stability and beneficial characteristics which have a negative impact on oil recovery. In this study, these challenges have been circumvented by the functionalization of IONPs with 3-aminopropyltriethyloxysilane (APTES) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). Herein, co-precipitation synthesis of bare IONPs and post-synthesis grafting of APTES (AIONPs) and TEOS (SIONPs) were carried out in the laboratory. Synthesis and functionalization were confirmed by examining the physical and chemical properties of the nanomaterials (NMs) using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. The stability of the nanofluids (NFs) was examined using zetapotential and sedimentation analysis in the presence of reservoir brine (25,000ppm NaCl). The ability of the NFs to decrease interfacial tension (IFT) and alter the wettability of rock/fluid at reservoir conditions was examined using a K20 Easy Dyne Kruss tensiometer and Kruss drop shape analyzer, respectively. Based on the results, it was found that reservoir brine, decreased the electrostatic stability of IONFs, AIONFs, and SIONFs by 75.9%, 41.3%, and 68% respectively. The IFT reduction and wettability changes relative to the reference values of 25.53 ± 1.51 mN/m and 128 ± 3.4° at reservoir conditions were 11.6mN/m and 26° for IONFs, 7.7mN/m & 22.2° for AIONFs and 8.2mN/m& 15.5° for SIONFs.

For example, 2% use of KCl, a commonly used inorganic salt, contains an excess of 9500ppm chloride. This is considered high and toxic. Apart from environmental problems, KCl inhibiting solutions tend to negatively affect the rheology of the water-based fluids, posing a dilemma for industry operators. The clay and rheological stabilizing effects of KCl and amino acid mixes for hydraulic fracturing operations were investigated in this study. The stabilizing and rheological potentials of mixes of KCl and organic compounds have proven to be superior to the separate compounds in studies. The KCl was used in the study at safe quantities (1%) to prevent toxicity concerns. In this study, the inhibition potentials of KCl+ Arginine and KCl + Alanine solutions, mixed approximately at ecologically safe quantities, were tested at different bentonite wafers using M4600 Linear swell at 25°C and 1000psi in the work. Furthermore, rheological studies on bentonite-based suspensions were carried out using a high-precision Discovery Hybrid Rheometer (DHR-1). This was done to monitor the flow parameters of the inhibiting suspensions and their anti-swelling effects on the bentonite component of the prepared fracturing fluid. The effects of the mixtures were also compared to that of KCl, Arginine and Alanine inhibition solutions. Herschel-Bulkley's model was also used to determine the flow characteristics. After 24 hours of testing, the swelling findings reveal that KCl+ Arginine/KCl + Alanine treated fracturing fluids significantly affect the clay stabilization and rheological properties of the fracturing fluid. The study provides basic information on the inhibition potentials of KCl and natural amino acid mixtures in water-based fracturing fluids for clean clay stabilization.","PeriodicalId":407977,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Wed, August 02, 2023","volume":"38 10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122727488","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}

While defining the PM program, due consideration must be given to the well risk (business and safety) which impacts consequence level of failures. In matured assets with high well counts, PM programs should be structured to maximize uptime of wells with significant volume contribution, critical gas producers to support gas lift systems and injectors while also minimizing process safety risk on all wells.

To tackle these challenges, the data generated in oil and gas, which is a valuable tool, has to be harnessed for stakeholders to implement life-changing solutions. The Nigerian economy has faced a significant drawback in the gas transportation and storage sector. The challenge in gas transportation can be seen in gas pipeline leakages which have resulted in the loss of lives, properties, and the country's revenue. Thus, early leak detection gas of pipelines remains critical for economic and safety reasons. This paper uses artificial intelligence to build models that utilize the available gas flow data to detect potential gas leakages across the pipeline. Machine learning algorithms which include Recurrent Neural Networks, and K-nearest neighbourhood are built and trained with operational data to derive the optimal learning model. Also, each model's performance metrics were evaluated to measure the model's accuracy and precision. Furthermore, an economic model is then developed to show the monetary benefits of implementing AI solutions to gas leakages. Thus, we provide a stepwise comparative analysis of the gas revenue, gas leakage detection cost, and the cost of providing an answer from an AI-based architecture to a non-AI-based one. The results showed that recurrent neural network outperforms the K-nearest neighbors in leak detection in pipelines as a result of the framework of neural network that allows the algorithm to learn without human supervision a and sift through the data set and label the data point. However, all the machine learning models possess high reliability. The accuracy and reliability of these models upon economic analysis proved to be a cost-effective solution lowering cost and increasing revenue. These models can be employed by companies and engineers to tackle the problem of pipeline leakage detection.","PeriodicalId":407977,"journal":{"name":"Day 3 Wed, August 02, 2023","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122224258","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}
