Reservoir Management: Lecture Seven

This document discusses calculating original oil in place (OOIP) in an oil reservoir using Petrel software. It explains that Petrel allows building 3D static models and estimating OOIP by incorporating data from multiple sources into a single workflow. The key steps are: 1) estimating properties like porosity, water saturation, and net hydrocarbon thickness from well logs, 2) applying these average properties and a volumetric equation to compute hydrocarbon initially in place for each reservoir unit, 3) Petrel accurately calculates various volumetric calculations by dividing the 3D grid at contacts and faults. The document also notes that computer processed interpretations (CPI) are used to estimate petrophysical properties needed for the initial OOIP estimate.

OIIP CALCULATION
2.9 OIIP
Oil in place is the total hydrocarbon content of an oil reservoir and is
often abbreviated STOOIP, which stands for Stock Tank Original Oil In
Place, or STOIIP for Stock Tank Oil Initially In Place, referring to the oil
in place before the commencement of production. In this case, stock
tank barrels refer to the volume of oil after production, at surface
pressure and temperature (as opposed to reservoir conditions).
The important values that must be calculated before calculating OOIP
are Hnet, Swavg and ɸavg and these values estimate from CPI.
OOIP(oil originally in place) calculation can be done by several ways:
1-OOIP by volumetric method: (Not used in our calculations)
2-OOIP by material balance: (Not used in our calculations)
3-OOIP by Petrel software
The way we used in our Report is the 3rd method, OIIP by petrel
software. OIIP by petrel software  Is a Schlumberger owned
Windows PC software application intended to aggregate oil reservoir
data from multiple sources It allows the user to interpret seismic
data, perform well correlation, build reservoir models suitable for
simulation, submit and visualize simulation results, calculate
volumes, produce maps and design development strategies to
maximize reservoir exploitation. It addresses the need for a single
application able to support the "seismic-to-simulation" workflow,
reducing the need for a multitude of highly specialized tools. By
bringing the whole workflow into a single application risk and
uncertainty can be assessed throughout the life of the reservoir.
In this report we use Petrel software to build 3D static model and
estimate OIIP.
The volumetric calculation
The volumetric method was applied to compute the
hydrocarbon initially in place (HIIP). It was calculated for
each unit of the reservoir by using the equation below:
OIIP: Original oil in place, sm3.
VB: bulk volume, m3.
∅: Porosity, fraction.
Swi: Initial water saturation expressed as a fraction of the pore
volume.
Boi: formation volume factor, under initial conditions, (Boi=1.2
rm3/sm3).
Volume calculation process will accurately calculate the various
volumes (bulk, pore and fluid) in a 3D grid. During the process of
modeling of the reservoir, several 3D grids may create with different
treatments of the faults and horizons. Within those grids, there may
be several versions of a property model and contacts and there may
be several representations of the fluids within the model.
Volume Calculation Method
Each side of the cell is triangulated and the cells are split exactly where
they are cut by contacts or boundary polygons. Because of the geometry
of the 3D grid used in Petrel, faults form an integral part of the grid. Cell
boundaries always form the faults in the 3D grid, and volumes are
therefore always reported exactly along segment boundaries.
The basic formulas used for volume calculations are:
Bulk Volume = Total Rock Volume
NET VOLUME = BULK VOLUME * NET/GROSS
Pore Volume = Bulk Volume * Net/Gross * Porosity
HCPV oil = Bulk Volume * Net/Gross * Porosity * So
HCPV GAS = BULK VOLUME * NET/GROSS * POROSITY * SG
STOOIP = HCPV oil/Bo + (HCPV gas/Bg) * OGR gas
GIIP = HCPV gas/Bg + (HCPV oil/Bo) * GOR oil
Recoverable Oil = STOOIP * RF oil
Recoverable Gas = GIIP * RF gas
Note: Bulk, Net and Pore volume will only report the volume above the
oil/water contact!
How to calculate the volume of oil in a 3D grid
1-Double click on the Volume Calculation process in the process
dialog.
2-Give the case a name and choose the appropriate grid.
3-Choose the phases to calculate.
4-Drop the contacts into the appropriate boxes, according to the
diagram, using the blue arrow.
5-Browse through the property tabs and select either property
models for each of the inputs or a constant value.
6-Press Apply and then Run.
*Reserve calculation parameters are:
Hydrocarbon Saturation (%) and Recovery factor (%)
Gross Rock Volume, Formation Volume Factor, Porosity (%), Net
to gross (%), Hydrocarbon saturations (%).
*The drive mechanisms in Buzurgan field are:
Water drive and solution gas drive.
Q/ Why is the volumetric method not accurate?
Because of these reasons:
1. The values of cutoffs (Ø, K, Sw) are not accurate.
2. The values of (Ø weighted average, Sw weighted average,
total Hnet) are not accurate.
3. It assumed that the reservoir as one block.

Q/ What is the benefit of (CPI)?
CPI (computer process interpretation) is a way to estimate (petro
physical properties: SW, Ø and Hnet) so as to estimate the initial
oil in place (OOIP) in the Mushrif structural in Buzurgan field. As
following steps:
1. At first determine the thickness of hydrocarbon (Hnet):
hnet = interval * n
2. The porosity and saturation cut-off should be ignored.
3. The arithmetic average porosity is estimated for every well

4. The arithmetic average water saturation is estimated for every


well.

Where n: number of cells (depth items).
