Munga field of the Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Company (GNPOC) in Sudan has several wells that have commingle production from the Aradeiba, Bentiu-1 and Bentiu-2 formations. These formations are highly variable in terms of the reservoir properties, oil types and pressure regimes. Because of the contrast properties of different layers, the water cut phenomenon is relatively fast and severe which hampers the productivity and ultimate recovery of the individual well as well as the field.For effective Reservoir Management and to limit the declining trend of the field, Water Management Techniques are applied in some of the wells of this field. Information obtained in the process was used for reservoir model calibration, well productivity prediction, low productivity diagnosis, and generation of new drainage points and remedial action for water management. This paper discusses the technical details of three cases corresponding to the wells Munga-XX and Umm Sagura South-XX (USS-XX) and Munga-XY in which, a multidisciplinary approach has been implemented in order to determine depletion profile, produced oil and remaining reserves, locate any "by-passed" oil zones, determine oil and water contributions from each zone and shut off the excess water production while maintaining or increasing oil production.
