Infill Drilling Potential in Tight Gas Reservoirs

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2010
Abstract Many operators of tight gas reservoir fields are interested in determining the infill well potential in these fields. Over drilling may prove to be uneconomical; whereas, under drilling would leave unexplored reserves in the ground.

Tight Gas Reservoir Exploitation With Underbalanced Drilling Technology

IPTC 2009: International Petroleum Technology Conference, 2009
Abstract To meet future global energy demand, access to deeper and harder to get at hydrocarbon reservoirs requires innovative and cost effective technical solutions. Managed pressure drilling (MPD) is one such solution that can best be described as an adaptive drilling process engineered to safely address ...

Advancing Reservoir Simulation Capabilities for Tight Gas Reservoirs

SPE Rocky Mountain Petroleum Technology Conference, 2009
Abstract It is critical to identify optimum well spacing to develop cost-effective full field development plans for tight gas reservoirs. Accurate prediction of well performance is a major challenge that arises during the development of such reservoirs. Understanding well performance is needed for both well design and depletion planning.

Upgridding Method for Tight Gas Reservoirs

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2010
Abstract Low permeability sandstone reservoirs in western US produce gas and water. Their geologic history indicates the development of non primary drainage equilibrium. Hence, one does not observe transition zone but trendless variation in multiphase fluid saturations throughout the formation.

Geology of Tight Gas Reservoirs

1986
Tight gas reservoirs occur in low-permeability, gas-bearing formations that are present to some extent in all gas-producing basins worldwide. This is the first volume to bring together data on tight reservoirs for a variety of basins and different geologic settings. The papers in this volume discuss characteristics of some of the most significant tight

Analysis of Commingled Tight Gas Reservoirs

Proceedings of SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1996
Abstract This paper presents a method to match the production data of commingled tight gas reservoirs. A simple computer program is used to history match production data, estimate the individual OGIP and productivity of each layer, and forecast the total performance of the well.

Well Testing of Tight Gas Reservoirs

Canadian International Petroleum Conference, 2008
Abstract A tight gas reservoir is commonly defined as a reservoir having less than 0.1 millidarcies permeability. There are several basic concepts and field cases of different well tests in tight gas reservoirs in the literature, but not presented as a general guide. In this paper, we gather valuable information and

Prefracture Testing in Tight Gas Reservoirs

SPE Formation Evaluation, 1986
Summary A pressure transient test run before a fracture job in a tight gas reservoir is an invaluable part of the total testing program necessary to evaluate the efficacy of such a fracture job. This paper addresses the problem of treating the pressure-sensitive viscosity/compressibility (μct) product while analyzing the prefracture test

Formation Damage in Tight Gas Reservoirs

SPE European Formation Damage Conference and Exhibition, 2015
Abstract The increased demand for more sources of clean energy such as natural gas from unconventional reservoirs has forced the industry to explore the more challenging tight gas reservoirs. Tight gas reservoirs constitute a significant proportion of the world's natural gas resource and offer great potential for future reserve growth ...

Tight Gas Reservoir Simulation

2013
Analytical and numerical simulation studies are performed to have a qualitative understanding of damage mechanisms associated with production from non-fractured and hydraulically fractured tight gas reservoirs; and evaluate its potential impact on well productivity.
