Complex Approach to Creation and Maintenance of Integrated Asset Models and Implementation of Digital Data Management Platform

Abstract

The paper presents a complex approach based on the experience of the authors of this article for creating and maintaining integrated asset models (IAM) and implementing a digital data management platform. Problems of using IAM for the operational management of field development and production are that the data is not accurate, the measurements are spaced in time, and there is not enough data to understand the physical phenomena taking place. The complex approach is that to provide integrated asset models with high-quality data, it is necessary to build new processes, create new specialties and competencies, the key success factor is the combination of the experience of Customer (oil company), Internal oil-related service of Customer (geological and geophysical research), External contractor of oil-related service (the combination of experience in geological and geophysical research, experience in integrated asset modeling and operational support for field development using integrated asset modeling tools and digitalization of data management). The best way to implement the approach of creating joint Integrated Team of External and Internal oilfield service Contractors in the form of Complex Service Engineering Center, the task for which which was the organization of a cyber-physical system for collecting field data, verifying data, identifying problem areas in data, defining approaches to eliminating problem areas using tools of automation tools for working with data, the flexible management of well testing and survey programs, the operational formation of well testing and survey design for non-standard situations. Particular attention in this complex approach is paid to working with initial field data, this article provides a general scheme for verifying the various parameters of well operation and an example of its use for flow rates, as well as examples of the quality analysis of reservoir pressures based on the use of a two-dimensional one-phase proxy reservoir model and the quality analysis of GOR for a well. Based on the developed complex approach, the paper provides examples of strategic and operational problems for a field - the assessment of optimal production for a field and the assessment of oil shortfalls for a well, respectively.
