Application of Hydrodynamic Analysis to Investigate Possibility Reservoir Connectivity between Neighboring Gas Fields

Proceedings Title : Proc. Indon. Petrol. Assoc., 43rd Ann. Conv., 2019

T-Field is a producing gas field in North Bali PSC, which is currently producing 80 mmscfd from Paciran sandstone formation. Paciran formation extends more than 20 km across the PSC area, which consists of 3 developed gas fields and one potential development field. The flowing material balance analysis conducted on T-Field suggests the possibility of reservoir connectivity between this field and its neighboring fields. Even though each field already had a well-defined Gas Water Contact, a thorough investigation was done using hydrodynamic potential analysis to see if there is any hydrodynamic potential that allows connectivity between these fields, and enables tilted contact occurred between these field. Using pressure data taken from each field of exploration wells the analysis was conducted and it concludes that there is an existing hydrodynamic potential between gas fields in Paciran formation. A review on the tilted contact analysis concludes that the existing hydrodynamic potential is not enough to tilt the contact as per actually observed contacts.
