    The document describes a workflow that automates calculating average flow capacity for production zones at wells using permeability logs. The workflow generates permeability logs for each zone, calculates thickness, derives average permeability and flow capacity, and outputs results to a sheet.

    Automated Calculation of Average

    Flow Capacity using Workflow Editor


    Petrel 2014.5
    This short document describes a workflow built in Petrel’s Workflow Editor upon a client’s request. The objective
    is to automate calculation of the average flow capacity (kh) of each production zone, at each well, using the
    permeability logs.
    The workflow executes the following operations:
    1. A perforation log is generated for each well.
    2. Separate permeability logs are created for each production zone, at each well.
    3. An average permeability log is derived using the Well Log calculator.
    4. Thickness of the perforation intervals is calculated.
    5. An average flow capacity log is derived by multiplying the average permeability by the thickness of the
    corresponding perforation interval.
    6. Statistics are written to an Output sheet.
    7. The average permeability and flow capacity are read from the Output sheet.
    8. Well name, perforation number, thickness, average permeability and flow capacity are written to the Output
    sheet, in tabular format.
    The thickness of each
    production zone is calculated.

    The outer loop is used to Statistics of the permeability logs are written The inner loop is used to generate
    generate the required logs to an Output sheet: Toggle on List 1 to output separate permeability and flow
    for each well. the min/max and List 2 to output the mean. capacity logs of each perforation.
    Thickness of a production zone is calculated by subtracting the Top MD from the Bottom MD of the corresponding
    perforation.
    The average permeability- Well name, perforation The variable “counter” is used to count
    thickness logs of all perforations number, thickness, average the perforations in each well and to

    log, called AvPermH. are written to an Output (e.g. Perm_1, AvPermH_2 etc.)
    sheet, in tabular format.
    A sub-folder called “Workflow Logs” is generated under the Global well logs and the perforation’s permeability and
    average flow capacity logs (e.g. Perm_1, AvPermH_2 etc.) are moved into this folder. This is achieved by identifying
    the logs starting with “Perm_” or “AvPermH_”.
    Please note that Petrel does not allow to open the Well Log calculator with a variable as Well input.
    Therefore, to set the template of the log you are generating and to
    resample it from a given log (e.g. MD), you need to drop the
    “Wells” folder as Well input and double-click on the Well Log
    calculator in the workflow.
    After defining the template and the log from which to sample, set the Well input back to “Variable A”.
