OBJECTIVES:

To enable the student to interpret cross plots, well characteristics, simulation and gas condensate reservoirs.

UNIT I		9

Fluid characteristics. Introduction to the production system. Characteristics of the reservoir rocks-Porosity, Permeability- cross plots. Fluid saturation, capillary pressure.

UNIT II		9

Multi phase flow: Relative permeability-fractional flow. Well performance – inflow performance, tubing performance.

UNIT III		9

Well testing – Basic well testing theory – oil well testing: gas well testing – Practical well testing – Gas field reservoir engineering – Fluid phase behaviour – Gas in place volumes and recovery estimations. Reservoir testing and performance analysis: well test – drillstem tests (DST); production tests, pressure tests on gas wells; formation interval testing and other well testing techniques. Coning of water and gas; effects of partial penetration.

UNIT IV		9

Material balance techniques: Production forecasting – Gas condensate reservoir engineering Fluid phase behaviour development – options.

UNIT V		9

Well performance – Reservoir management and simulation – reservoir data acquisition – Reservoir simulation. Mathematical basis of bottom hole analysis; Differential equations for radial flow in a porous medium. Pressure draw down and build up analysis.

TOTAL : 45 PERIODS

OUTCOMES:

Student will be able to follow and understand the reservoir concepts such as reservoir simulation, rock characteristics and reservoir management.
