|
Designing a water
shut-off treatment for fractured, multi-layered sandstone
Leo A. Giangiacomo, P.E.,
Extreme Petroleum Technology, Inc., Casper, Wyoming |
|
Thorough research and design increased the
probability that a gel-polymer water shut-off treatment of a Tensleep producer at Teapot Dome would be
successful. |
|
Using a new biological
option to repair polymer-induced formation damage
Scott Bailey, Micro-Bac
International, Inc., Round Rock, Texas, and Stan Atnipp, SLA, Inc., Midland, Texas
|
|
Treatments with biological stimulation fluids
effectively repaired reservoir damage caused by polymer fluids in two wells. |
|
Hydrochloric/phosphonic
acid combination improves well performance
Richard Russell, St. James Oil Corp.,
Los Angeles, California, and Walt North, RMC Consultants, Inc., Tulsa, Oklahoma |
|
St. James Oil Corp. used a combination hydrochloric
/ phosphonic acid stimulation treatment in four wells in the Los Angeles Downtown oil field to improve
well performance and inhibit calcium carbonate scaling. |
|
PC-based simulation
optimizes horizontal well development plan
Jim Buchwalter and Greg Hazlett,
Gemini Solutions, Inc., Houston, Texas, and Paul McDonald and Charles Sharp, Pioneer
Natural Resources, Irving, Texas |
|
Pioneer Natural Resources, with support from Gemini
Solutions, Inc., used quick-turnaround, PC-based reservoir simulation to evaluate infill horizontal
development in the tight gas Edward formation in Pawnee field, Bee County, Texas. |
