Optimisation of Production Well Location

Monitoring method: Full Wave Location

The Situation

The operator was conducting drilling activities in a heavily fractured reservoir at a depth of 1,250 m. TenzorGEO’s monitoring technology was deployed to aid the operator in selecting optimum production well positions to maximise hydrocarbon production.

The Approach

The Full-Wave Location methodology was utilised to identify zones of active natural fracturing and to determine the azimuth of fractures (microseismic activity). The operator received recommendations on drilling positions, based on TenzorGEO’s interpretation of the data Identified zones of active natural fracturing are shown in red. Additionally, the rose diagram represents a determination of the fracture azimuth. The following results were essential in optimising the location of production wells
Zones of active natural fracturing can be seen identified in red, additionally determination of the fracture azimuth are represented in a rose diagram. The following results are essential in optimising the location of production wells

Results

  • The operator received recommendations on the optimal positions of the design wells
  • After receiving Tenzor GEO’s report, the operator conducted an independent comparison of the results using production history within the study area. The comparison showed a good correlation of high primary production rates and well stability with zones of increased microseismic activity, confirming our results
