| Popis: |
The Yme Field is the first abandoned oil field to be re-developed on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Production from the field was originally shutdown in 2001 due to a high water cut and unfavourable economics. Re-development, by a new operator, started in 2009 utilizing a strategy of high angle geosteered wells optimally placed to avoid water zones and maximize producible intervals.The wells of Yme were successfully geosteered, using DTB to detect the reservoir and map the water zones within the reservoir sands. We showed and discussed one of the instances of water zones that were encountered during the drilling campaign. After placing the wells, the enhanced knowledge of the subsurface geometry and the fluid distribution are necessary in order to ensure economical production on a complex field. |
