Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to estimating fluid breakthrough times at producing well locations. More particularly, the invention relates to estimating fluid breakthrough times at producing well locations based on fluid propagation simulations.
  • HM History Matching
  • HM is a systematic procedure of altering a reservoir simulation model to reproduce the dynamic field response.
  • the main objectives are a) integration of production data into reservoir models; b) flexibility, cost- effectiveness and computational efficiency; and c) full utilization of dynamic data.
  • HM technology has evolved tremendously and gained major recognition and expansion from the traditional (i.e. manual, deterministic) approach, mostly built on stratigraphic methods to new developments like probabilistic, streamline-based HM, sensitivity/gradient-based and experimental design.
  • HM workflows largely consider the minimization of the misfit between the measured and simulated fluid (e.g. oil or water) dynamic response at the individual production well as one of the inversion main objectives.
  • the response misfit represents the differential or cumulative water-cut curves with two main attributes: 1) fluid breakthrough time; and 2) trend and shape of the response. While both attributes represent important variables in the process of misfit minimization, it is the fluid breakthrough time that bares the highest impact on the economics of the well production.
  • the interval (i.e. time-frame) of the fluid breakthrough is always burdened with uncertainty, which makes the effort of estimation with highest confidence possible, even more relevant.
  • it is a good practice in HM of dynamic well data to consider the breakthrough time as the first-order effect and the variations in curve trend/shape as the second-order effect, because they mainly reflect on the operating conditions.
  • the production data may be noisy and inherently biased.
  • the present invention therefore, meets the above needs and overcomes one or more deficiencies in the prior art by providing systems and methods for estimating fluid breakthrough times at producing well locations based on fluid propagation simulations.
  • the present invention includes a method for estimating a fluid breakthrough time at a production well based on fluid propagation simulation data, comprising: i) identifying streamline tracking data; ii) calculating an average streamline travel time in each grid-cell based on the streamline tracking data; iii) identifying a shortest or fastest streamline for the production well using the average streamline travel time in each grid-cell; iv) calculating an average time-of-flight for the shortest or fastest streamline over each traversed grid-cell using a computer processor; and v) estimating the fluid breakthrough time at the production well using the fluid propagation simulation data, and the average time-of-flight for the shortest or fastest streamline.
  • the present invention includes a non-transitory program carrier device tangibly carrying computer executable instructions for estimating a fluid breakthrough time at a production well.
  • the instructions being executable to implement: i) identifying streamline tracking data; ii) calculating an average streamline travel time in each grid-cell based on the streamline tracking data; iii) identifying a shortest or fastest streamline for the production well using the average streamline travel time in each grid-cell; iv) calculating an average time-of-flight for the shortest or fastest streamline over each traversed grid-cell using; and v) estimating the fluid breakthrough time at the production well using the fluid propagation simulation data, and the average time-of-flight for the shortest or fastest streamline.

  • FIG. 2A illustrates the velocity and the direction of fluid propagating through a wide sand pocket.
  • FIG. 2B illustrates the velocity and the direction of fluid propagating through a narrow sand pocket.

  • FIG. 7D illustrates the observed (measured) water-cut curve for the producing well P 4 in FIG. 4A.
  • FIG. 8 is a block diagram illustrating one embodiment of a system for implementing the present invention.
  • the present invention includes systems and methods to estimate fluid breakthrough times at producing well locations based on the simulation of fluid propagation.
  • the present invention includes a fluid propagation simulation, which is generally static and renders the invasion time(s) for fluid injected at the injection well(s) to reach the production well(s).
  • the simulation affords full consideration of facies modeling, which preserves control over depositional continuity of geological models by directly constraining the simulation with the facies distribution.
  • the simulation also preserves the stochasticity of the fluid front propogation. Despite the static nature of the simulation, the stochastic sampling of the moving fluid front is performed by using a uniform distribution.
  • the present invention converts the fluid invasion time(s) (given by the simulation in units of iterations) to the domain of physical time (given i.e. in days, weeks, months%), which is compatible with the well production history.
  • the present invention therefore, provides new possibilities for the rapid estimation of valuable well production parameters in a fast and cost- effective manner. For example, a fast and accurate estimation of the fluid breakthrough time(s) associated with an individual reservoir model can be achieved prior to commencing a full inversion. Such an estimate would provide valuable information to the well operators in terms of well valve dynamics, particularly in water/gas-flooding EOR projects where the management of oil and water/gas production bares a substantial economic impact.
  • the present invention uses the combination of streamline tracking and associated Time-Of-Flight ("TOF") with the simulation.
  • TOF Time-Of-Flight
  • the present invention therefore, enables quick approximation of fluid breakthrough times following the simulation run and one iteration of streamline tracking in the process of streamline-sensitivity assisted Automated History Matching ("AHM”) of reservoir models.
  • AHM Automated History Matching
  • FIG. 1 a flow diagram illustrates one embodiment of a method 100 for implementing the present invention.

  • FPS fluid propagation simulation
  • One technique for performing FPS is based on an algorithm in the RGeoS software package developed by D. Renard.
  • the FPS algorithm simulates the distribution of several fluids known at the injection and/or production wells, which is conditioned by the facies information known at the nodes of a regular grid and tends to let the fluid encountered at the wells (e.g. the injection well) to grow or expand spatially.
  • the velocity and the direction of growth depend on the size of the sand pockets that can be filled. In FIG. 2, for example, true velocity and the direction of fluid propagating through a wide sand pocket (FIG. 2A) and a narrow sand pocket (FIG. 2B) are illustrated.
  • Velocity vectors 202, 204 are utilized in the FPS algorithm.
  • the FPS algorithm is designed to perform one simulation of a numerical variable using the Eden simulation technique.
  • the technique provides a faster alternative solution for a multiphase fluid flow simulation program.
  • the technique combines a dual medium "black and white" example where white represents sand and black represents shale with one or more injection wells and one or more production wells as illustrated in FIG. 3. In this example, the locations of sand facies 302, 304, 306, and of two injection wells 307, 308, are illustrated.

  • FIG. 5 one possible streamline distribution in the 5- spot-pattern of wells in FIG. 4B is illustrated.
  • tracking TOF from the production well(s) indicates the drainage volume; and iii) tracking fluid from the injection well gives an assessment of swept volume.
  • step 104 the FPS data results from step 102 are identified, which includes the fluid invasion time given by the number of simulation iterations needed for the fluid to reach any production well (P m ) from an injection well through one or more grid-cells representing the reservoir property model.
  • the streamline tracking data are identified using any well known technique, which include the number of streamline segments traversing each grid-cell (NSLN), the travel time ( ⁇ ) for each streamline segment ( ⁇ ];, ⁇ dress ) in each grid-cell, the grid-cell indices and the total number of grid-cells traversed by all streamlines connecting an injection well with a production well.

  • step 108 the average streamline travel time in each grid-cell ( Of ) is calculated by taking into account all streamline segments traversing each grid-cell, which may be calculated using the following equation: where (NSLN) is the number of streamline segments traversing each grid-cell from step 106 and is the travel time for each streamline segment in each grid-cell from step 106.

  • the distinction between the "fastest” and the “slowest” streamline from the distribution of streamlines associated with each production well (P m ) is relevant to discriminate between the homogeneous and heterogeneous spatial distribution of reservoir properties such as, for example, channels.
  • the difference between the distribution of streamlines in FIG. 5 reveals that production wells P 2 and P 3 are connected with injection well (I) through a distinctively different geological formation than production wells Pi and P 4) which might correspond to an underlying channel structure.

If all traversed grid-cells have not been considered, then the method 100 returns to step 118. If all traversed grid-cells have been considered, then the method 100 proceeds to step 124.

  • N xyz ) and (N p ) represent the total size of the reservoir property model and the total number of production wells, respectively
  • ( ⁇ TOF> min ) represents the average TOF for the shortest/fastest streamline calculated in step 118

  • step 126 the method 100 determines if all production wells have been considered. If all production wells (P m ) have not been considered, then the method 100 returns to step 104. If all production wells (P m ) have been considered, then the method 100 ends. Alternatively, steps 104 through 126 may be performed at the same time for each production well (P m ).
