Abstract: Maximum stabilized water-cut (WC), also known as ultimate water-cut in a reservoir with bottom-water coning, provides important information to decide if reservoir development is economical. To date, theory and determination ...

Abstract: Field trials and physical modeling of wells with downhole water sink (DWS) completions have demonstrated controlled water coning and increased oil production rate. However, no field trials were long enough to show DWS ...

Abstract: In the present paper, we analyze numerically the disproportionate permeability reduction (DPR) watershutoff (WSO) treatments in oil production well, i.e., the ability to reduce relative permeability (RP) to water more than ...

Abstract: Shale gas well deliverability and economics depend on extremely low permeability that is not only dependent on the rock bedding trend but also controlled by in situ stresses. The purpose of this study was to determine ...
