Chemical Stimulation Pilot at a Heavy-Oil Field: Key Considerations, Workflow, and Results

Abstract: This paper presents the planning and execution process for a key matrix stimulation pilot project performed in the heavy-oil Chichimene field in the central Colombian province of Meta. An understanding of multiple aspects of formation damage, candidate well selection, laboratory testing, treatment fluid selection, onsite quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), diversion considerations, and placement techniques was fundamental to achieving a successful treatment design. Results are presented in terms of a pe… Show more

“…We repeated the complete procedure ten times for each compared preprocessing technique to avoid bias due to initial random selection and took the mean of the pvalues. The source code and the data (including the training and test partitions) used in this part of our analysis can be found published on the web [53]. According to the p-values obtained for ER, PR, Ki67 and HER2 regarding MORT and REC in Cox regression, we could state that a transformation based on the use of an automatic binarization after autoencoding would be better qualitatively than the other options, but not quantitatively.…”

“…En este sentido, se han implementado diferentes proyectos de desarrollo tecnológico dentro de los cuales se destacan el Piloto de Inyección de Agua Mejorada y el Piloto de Inyección de Aire para Recobro (PIAR), ambos ubicados en la cuenca de los llanos orientales, una de las zonas más productivas del país [2]. El PIAR se desarrolla en el campo Chichimene (Meta, Colombia); este campo se caracteriza por producir crudo extrapesado, el cual representa el 11.5 % de la producción total de crudo diaria en Colombia [5]. El factor de recobro para este crudo, con viscosidad superior a 2000 cP y gravedad API entre 7° y 10°, puede estar cerca del 10 % [6]; por medio de la inyección de aire, se espera que este porcentaje incremente alrededor de 50 % considerando los resultados obtenidos en proyectos exitosos de este tipo [7,8].…”
