Summary: | The well spacing problem is one that has plagued the oil industry for many years. How many well that will be drilled, and further drill for infill well; are certain thing that must be considered carefully, as it affects the value of well spacing to be used. Optimum spacing size is one factor that is needed in a hydrocarbon reservoir development phase and production well drilling plan. It aims to ensure that the field can produce according to target and generate maximum profits. <br />
<br />
Surfactant flooding is a method in place to enhance oil recovery in the production of a reservoir. In general, surfactant flooding performed after water flooding or simultaneously with water flooding. Proper spacing size will maximize the performance of water flooding and surfactant flooding to enhance oil recovery factor. <br />
<br />
In simple terms, the optimum well spacing is determined using the graph plots NPV vs. spacing. The plot is obtained through data generated from the production simulation using various spacing in a reservoir. In this study, a reseroir model built using ‘Eclipse’ simulator with Black Oil fluid type. With five variations of spacing, we could determine the optimal spacing that produce the maximum benefit in economic analysis. |
