Infill-Drilling Potential in Tight Gas Reservoirs

Abstract: Many operators of tight gas reservoir fields are interested in determining the infill well potential in these fields. Over drilling may prove to be uneconomical; whereas, under drilling would leave unexplored reserves under the ground. In predicting FUR (expected ultimate recovery) of a potential infill well, operators are interested in knowing what percentage of the production will be come from incremental reserves (newly accessed) and what percentage is from acceleration reserves (which can be produced from … Show more

“…The mechanisms for these methods are the increasing in production degree of reserves, pressure drawdown sweep efficiency and pressure depletion efficiency [10][11][12]. Currently, for tight gas reservoirs exploited with vertical wells, the technologies for infilling wells for EGR have been presented, which are mainly based on the quantitative geological model, the dynamic drainage area, the ratio of inter-well interference, the dynamic inversion of numerical simulation and the critical well space [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. For tight gas reservoirs developed by MFHWs, to improve the gas recovery, the methods of side tracking for old wells and placement optimization for new infilling wells have been presented [22][23][24][25][26].…”

“…Some authors have used commercial reservoir simulators to study the gas production from a shale gas reservoir in an integrated workflow (Cipolla et al, 2010). Luo and Kelkar (2013) presented a new approach to predict the expected ultimate recovery of infill well in the tight gas reservoirs. Osholake et al (2013) investigated the factors that affect the performance of hydraulically fractured well in the Marcellus shale.…”
