..., start-up and production phases) has continuously helped to optimize production. Oil production in the existing fields has also been improved by better balancing gas sales and injection. The project added significant value from the increased gas sales and oil production. This paper discusses...

The implementation of a new exploitation philosophy focused in secondary recovery, increased recovery factor in about 10%, the contribution from waterflooding is about 30% of the total oil production...

... Abstract The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of oil production on the price of oil considering particularly the case of unconventional (tight and shale) reservoirs. Five years ago, at LACPEC 2014 in Maracaibo, Venezuela, we presented an original paper and a methodology...

OPGEE makes estimates of emissions accounting using up to 50 parameters for each modeled field. This model was developed at Stanford University. Data...

... production mechanism was necessary. Today, there is a high decline in oil production, mainly because current low pressures, high clay/sand ratio, high stratification and wells completion. All these factors are key elements causing the efficiency reduction of the steam injection; therefore, causing a low...

Abstract The "Oficina" formation is the most important in the Eastern Venezuela Basin and represents the main target for this study, which is to optimize the oil production and increase well productivity by the means of reducing the oil viscosity through the application of downhole electrical...

... Abstract La Cira Infantas (LCI) is the oldest oilfield in Colombia, with 100 years of oil production history spanning three periods: primary depletion, the first waterflood (WF) period, and the second WF period. After the first WF period, the field had neared its economic limit...

... Abstract Producing from mature oil fields in Ecuador introduces many reservoir challenges, including multizone oil production and artificial lift demands due to high water cut. Traditionally, dual-string completions with sliding sleeves and dual electrical submersible pumps (ESP) were used...

... Abstract The production optimization in Oil & Gas fields is an activity which relies on a wide range of parameters and variables, where many of them can vary over time due to production trends and inherent uncertainty. However, while developing the optimal strategy for oil production...

... and subsequently how to economically extract it. To identify the source of the current oil production and potential new oil, well logs on infill wells were analysed. We also constructed a full field dynamic model that was history matched to production rates, RFT’s, gradient surveys and compared to historical...
