Define Under saturated oil reservoir
|
An reservoir where the pressure is greater than than the bubble point.
|
|
Define the dew point curve
|
The temperature and pressure conditions where first drop of liquid occurs in a mixture.
|
|
Drive index
|
It is the fraction of the underground withdrawal with is replaced by a particular drive mechanism. (DDI, SDI, WDI)
|
|
Oil formation volume factor
|
Bo = RB/STB
|
|
Isothermal water compressibility
|
Cw = 1/V * (dV/dP)
|
|
material balance
|
Volumetric balance between underground withdrawal and voidage replacement and aquifer influx and formation expansion
|
|
Constant composition expansion test
|
Finds the bubble point, drops the pressure and keeps the gas that comes of out solution in place.
|
|
Differential liberation test
|
Gives Bo, Bg, Rs. Drops the pressure and releases the gas that comes out of solution
|
|
Wet-gas reservoir
|
GOR < 100,000 SCF/STB
no liquid in the formation reservoir, but the separator is in the two phase evenlope |
|
T/F Oil shrinks when brought to surface from the reservoir mainly due to the liberation of solution of gas.
|
True
|
|
T/F A retrograde condenstate reservoir exists initally as a liquid phase in the reservoir, but forms a two phase stream in the well
|
False
|
|
T/F A saturated oil reservoir may oinly be a black oil reservoir and not a volatile oil reservoir
|
Fales
|
|
T/F The laboratory test to determine bubble point is the differential liberation test
|
False
|
|
T/F Oil compressibility may be determined from laboratory flash expansion test.
|
True
|
|
T/F Optimum separator conditions yield the highest producing gas oil ration
|
False
|
|
T/F The two phase oil formation volume factor decreases with decrease in pressure below the bubble point
|
False
|
|
T/F The bubble point pressure of an oil reservoir corresponds to the pressure at the gas oil contact
|
True
|
|
T/F Cumulative aguifer influx may exceed the total underground withdral
|
False
|
|
The van Everdingern-Hurst dimensionless water influx, Wed, reaches an asymptotic value for finite and infiite aquifers
|
False
|
|
Define the bubble point line
|
The line on the phase envelope which indicated where the 1st bubble of gas occurs
|
|
What is an under saturated oil reservoir
|
This is a reservoir that could dissolve more gas in solution if more gas were present. The pressure is greater than the bubble point pressure
|
|
What is the total underground withdrawl?
|
Total amount of oil,gas, and water produced from a reservoir
|
|
What is a volumetric gas reservoir?
|
As pressure declines, due to production, there is an insignificant amount of water influx. R volume will not change.
GP = G - V |
|
What is isothermal compressibility?
|
Change in volume due to pressure change.
C = -1/V ( dV/dP) |
|
Define the bubble point line
|
The line on the phase envelope which indicated where the 1st bubble of gas occurs
