System And Methods Of Characterizing A Hydrocarbon Reservoir

View page
US Patent:
7277796, Oct 2, 2007
Filed:
May 11, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/126882
Inventors:
Fikri Kuchuk - Truro MA, US
Chenggang Xian - Abu Dhabi, AE
Jichao Chen - Beijing, CN
Andrew Carnegie - Abu Dhabi, AE
Peter Hegeman - Stafford TX, US
Mustafa Onur - Istanbul, TR
Assignee:
Schlumberger Technology Corporation - Houston TX
International Classification:
G01V 3/32
US Classification:
702 7, 702 13
Abstract:
A technique is described for interpretation of IPTT tests. In one implementation, the technique may be configured or designed to standardize the complete interpretation procedure of IPTT in a heterogeneous reservoir, using if available, modern wireline logs (such as, for example, nuclear magnetic resonance and imaging), dynamic data from wireline formation testers and/or any other relevant information (such as, for example, geological description, core data and local knowledge) as constraints on the interpretation. Additionally, an iterative method may be used to define formation layering. An advanced regression technology may also be used to obtain optimized horizontal and vertical permeabilities of reservoir layers. Further a graphical user interface (GUI) based IPTT workflow technique of the present invention provides an integrated user-friendly interpretation platform for analyzing formation testing pressures and flow rate measurements in order to estimate the values and associated uncertainties of local characteristics of a hydrocarbon reservoir such as, for example, local permeability, local reservoir pressure, local compressibility, etc.

System And Method For Detecting Pressure Disturbances In A Formation While Performing An Operation

View page
US Patent:
7445043, Nov 4, 2008
Filed:
Feb 16, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/355850
Inventors:
Oliver C. Mullins - Ridgefield CT, US
Fikri Kuchuk - Truro MA, US
Andrew Carnegie - Perth, AU
Assignee:
Schlumberger Technology Corporation - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
E21B 47/06
E21B 47/01
E21B 49/08
US Classification:
16625001, 16625003, 7315227, 7315228, 7315255
Abstract:
A method for detecting pressure disturbances in a formation accessible by a borehole while performing an operation includes positioning a tool within the borehole, positioning a first probe of the tool at a first location, positioning a second probe of the tool at a second location remote from the first location to obtain a pressure reading, performing an operation with the first probe, detecting the presence of a first phase fluid within the tool, detecting a pressure disturbance within the formation with the second probe, and identifying a second phase fluid based on the detection of the pressure disturbance. Other methods and systems for detecting pressure disturbances in the formation are further shown and described.

Interpreting Well Test Measurements

US Patent:
20070162235, Jul 12, 2007
Filed:
Feb 13, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/674449
Inventors:
Lang Zhan - Pearland TX, US
Fikri Kuchuk - Truro MA, US
James Filas - Sugar Land TX, US
Dhandayuthapani Kannan - Missouri City TX, US
Assignee:
SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
G06F 19/00
US Classification:
702006000, 702001000
Abstract:
Based on measurements that are obtained from a well test, a pressure in the well is modeled as a function of at least a skin effect factor that varies with time. The results of the modeling may be used to estimate at least one well parameter, such as a formation parameter and/or a well pressure, as examples.

Integrated Permeability Measurement And Resistivity Imaging Tool

US Patent:
53355423, Aug 9, 1994
Filed:
Feb 12, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/016933
Inventors:
T. S. Ramakrishnan - Bethel CT
David Rossi - Newtown CT
Yogesh Dave - Stamford CT
William Murphy - Redding CT
Richard Plumb - Cambridge, GB2
Peter Goode - Rostrevor, AU
Fikri Kuchuk - New Fairfield CT
James Helwig - Dallas TX
Francois M. Auzerais - Ridgefield CT
Elizabeth B. Dussan V. - Ridgefield CT
Assignee:
Schlumberger Technology Corporation - New York NY
International Classification:
E21B 4706
E21B 4709
E21B 4908
E21B 4910
US Classification:
73152
Abstract:
A borehole tool having adjacently located fluid injection/withdrawal apparatus and an electromagnetic measurement apparatus is provided. The electromagnetic measurement apparatus can be an imaging apparatus for helping set the tool in desired locations for permeability testing via fluid injection or withdrawal. In a second mode, during fluid injection or withdrawal, and if desired, before and/or after injection or withdrawal, a plurality of electromagnetic measurements (images) are made. Based on the electromagnetic and hydraulic measurements, and a model which interrelates the measurements, determinations are made as to various characteristics of the formation, including effective permeabilities. Related methods for utilizing the tool and for treating the data in an integrated fashion are also set forth.

Inventors:
- Sugar Land TX, US
Nikita Chugunov - Arlington MA, US
Fikri John Kuchuk - Cambridge MA, US
Richard Booth - Houston TX, US
Anthony Fitzpatrick - Le Vesinet, FR
Denis Biryukov - Clamart, FR

Abstract:
Method for using sensitivity analysis to inform the design and performance of a well test are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes providing a reservoir model of pressure transient behavior and performing a sensitivity analysis to identify an input parameter of the reservoir model that can be estimated from pressure transient test data collected from a well location.

Other methods and systems are also disclosed.

Method For Real-Time Interpretation Of Pressure Transient Test

View page
US Patent:
20190017352, Jan 17, 2019
Filed:
Jul 13, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/034386
Inventors:
- Sugar Land TX, US
Sukru Sarac - Dhahran, SA
Kirsty Morton - Cambridge MA, US
Fikri Kuchuk - Cambridge MA, US
Stephane Vannuffelen - Cambridge MA, US
International Classification:
E21B 41/00
E21B 47/06
Abstract:
Methods for interpreting pressure transient tests and predicting future production for a well are provided. In one embodiment, a method for predicting future production includes beginning a pressure transient test within a well at a wellsite and obtaining pressure measurements of well fluid during the pressure transient test. The method can also include using the obtained pressure measurements to determine probabilistic estimates of input parameters of a pressure transient reservoir model while continuing the pressure transient test. Future production from the well can then be estimated based on the probabilistic estimates of the input parameters. Other methods and systems are also disclosed.
