Gas Cycling EOR in Uncoventional Reservoirs (2019)Interest continues to grow in the application of “Huff and Puff” gas-cycling enhanced oil recovery (GCEOR) for unconventional reservoirs. EOG has published results from their GCEOR projects indicating many benefits that they have derived from their EOR applications including 30 to 70% incremental oil recovery, after primary depletion, as well as reporting incremental oil costs of 6 USD per BBL with significant increase in net present value of their reservoirs where they have applied GCEOR.
This one-day course is created to articulate the science of GCEOR with emphasis on the mechanisms involved and field design considerations. Reservoir Fluid Properties (2018)This two-day course addresses common problems encountered in sampling and characterizing reservoir fluids. A thorough presentation of methods to achieve the best characterization for bubble-point fluids and retrograde gases, with emphasis on common errors made, is included; recent developments (2017) are also elucidated. The roles of confinement and fracture intensity on apparent phase behavior are also discussed along with the impact on measured fluid properties. QA/QC techniques of lab data sets are presented. Finally, the science of Lean-Gas cycling for EOR in tight porous media is introduced and analyzed.
Contemporary Topics for Liquid-Rich-Shale (LRS) ReservoirsThis two-day course begins with reservoir fluid properties starting with the most fundamental definitions and then expanding to how fluid properties are measured and reported. Common problems, encountered in sampling and characterization, are discussed by using multiple field examples. A thorough presentation of methods to achieve the best characterization for bubble-point fluids and retrograde gases is included; recent developments (2017) are elucidated. The roles of confinement and fracture intensity on apparent phase behavior are also discussed. The impact on measured fluid properties is quantified. QA/QC techniques of lab data sets are presented and discussed. Finally, the science of Lean-Gas cycling for EOR in shales is introduced and analyzed.
