A Prediction Method for Flow‐Stop Time in Deep‐Water Volatile Oilfields: A Case Study of Akpo Oilfield in Niger Delta Basin

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Due to the difference in oil and water density, the wellhead pressure continues to decrease with water‐cut rising in deep‐water volatile oilfields. Once it is close to the lower limit, the production well will stop flowing. This phenomenon seriously affects the production and recoverable reserves.
