The Effect of Stimulation Methodologies on Production in the Jonah Field

Abstract: Improvements in stimulation technology have continued to increase our ability to economically extract hydrocarbons from very low permeability reservoirs. The Jonah field, in Southwest Wyoming is a classic example of a reservoir that was commercialized with newer stimulation technology. The Lance formation in the Jonah field consists of several hundred feet of stacked lenticular sands with reservoir permeability to gas less than 10 µD. Completion techniques have evolved over the years employing a variety of hyd… Show more

“…The magnitude and sign of the variance helps quantify how the center well is producing for its geographical location. The primary use of spatial sampling is to identify underperforming wells; however, if used in conjunction with other information, then the completion techniques can be compared between the center well and offset wells (Eberhard and Mullen 2001).…”

“…Operations are similar to the offset Jonah field in which fracture stages are isolated with composite flow through fracture plugs or composite solid-bridge plugs. 5 An added benefit to effective stimulation is the gathering of pressure data at discrete intervals up the wellbore.…”
