Applications of technically sound reservoir management strategies to new and old reservoirs are important for maximum economic recoveries. Correct identifications of key geologic features, rock properties, state of reservoir fluids and major recovery mechanisms determine applicable reservoir management strategies. The critical decisions are selections of strategies that consider all available data and incorporate current technologies. The management strategies applied must be economic, conserve reservoir energy and adaptable to emerging technologies. Five reservoir management principles are presented as guides for determination and implementation of reservoir management strategies. The reservoir management principles are: Conservation of reservoir energy Early implementation of simple strategiesSustained and systematic collection of dataContinuous application of improved recovery technologiesLong term retention of staff in multi-disciplinary teams Case histories of 26R Reservoir, MBB/W31S Reservoirs, Luling and Slick Reservoirs are reviewed to illustrate the applications of the five reservoir management principles. The main objective of the report is to demonstrate through case histories that applications of the five reservoir management principles lead to technically sound reservoir management strategies that lead to maximum economic recoveries. |
