.... The condensate reservoir has been producing for many years under recycling mode, but condensate production has declined due to gradual pressure decrease and breakthrough of injected lean gas or nitrogen (N2). Throughout the reservoir's development, the average field Condensate-to-Gas Ratio (CGR) has steadily...

In influenced wells the main concern is to have a design that suits correctly to the flow range before and after the breakthrough; however, other fluid properties with a large influence during this process may be underrated. The scope of this project is to explain the symptoms of each...

When reduced sulfate seawater is injected with and without the presence of the thief zone, there is no scaling risk for either SrSO 4 or CaSO 4 . The results...

... undeveloped resources in PDO's current portfolio. Various attempts at producing this reservoir in the 1980s and 1990s were not successful, essentially because of poor reservoir permeability or due to early fluid breakthrough from the surrounding Natih A or C reservoirs. Such breakthroughs were related...
