New Formulation for Sandstone Acidizing That Eliminates Sand Production Problems in Oil and Gas Sandstone Reservoirs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The sandstone rocks' integrity and consolidation may be highly affected by the type and the strength of the stimulation fluids. Strong acids such as HF/HCl impair the rock consolidation. The reduction in the sandstone rock ...
Development of a New Correlation of Gas Compressibility Factor (Z Factor) for High Pressure Gas Reservoirs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gas compressibility factor or Zfactor for natural gas system can be determined from StandingKatz charts using the pseudocritical gas pressure and temperatures. These charts give accurate values for Zfactors. Reservoir ...
Well Clean-Up Using a Combined Thermochemical/Chelating Agent Fluids
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The well clean-up process involves the removal of impermeable filter cake from the formation face. This process is essential to allow the formation fluids to flow from the reservoir to the wellbore. Different types of ...
Challenges During Shallow and Deep Carbonate Reservoirs Stimulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Carbonate reservoir stimulation has been carried out for years using HCl or HClbased fluids. High HCl concentration should not be used when the well completion has Crbased alloy in which the protective layer is chrome oxide ...
Filter Cake Properties of Water Based Drilling Fluids Under Static and Dynamic Conditions Using Computed Tomography Scan
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Previous studies considered the waterbased drilling fluid filter cake as homogenous, containing one layer with an average porosity and permeability. The filter cake was recently proved to be heterogeneous, containing two ...
Long Term Effects of CO2 Sequestration on Rock Mechanical Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The longterm geological sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in underground formations (deep saline aquifers) is the most economically viable option to decrease the emissions of this greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. The ...
An Experimental Investigation of the Use of Combined Resistivity and Temperature Logs for Scale Monitoring In Carbonate Formations During CO2 Sequestration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study investigates the prospect of using permanent downhole resistivity and temperature sensors for scale monitoring during CO2 sequestration in saline carbonate aquifer. Current industry practice involves continuous ...
Evaluation of Rock Mechanical Properties Alteration During Matrix Stimulation With Chelating Agents
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Well stimulation using acidic solutions is widely used to treat carbonate formations. The acidic fluids remove the nearwellbore damage and create channels around the wellbore by dissolving fraction of the carbonate rocks. ...
Sandstone Acidizing Using a Low-Reaction Acid System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sandstone acidizing is the process of removing the damage from sandstone reservoirs to restore the well productivity/injectivity to its original or expected rates. It differs from carbonate acidizing in which a substantial ...
Machine Learning-Based Improved Pressure–Volume–Temperature Correlations for Black Oil Reservoirs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pressure–volume–temperature (PVT) properties of crude oil are considered the most important properties in petroleum engineering applications as they are virtually used in every reservoir and production engineering calculation. ...
