Development of improved methods for locating large areas of bypassed oil in Louisiana. Final report

Description: The primary objective of the project was to develop a predictive method for locating Pockets of bypassed mobile oil and estimating the volume of this resource. A secondary objective of the project was to transfer the learned technology to small independent operators who drill a majority of the domestic wells but lack access to a research staff. Another objective was to develop a format for compiling data on Louisiana reservoirs in a form that can be used by government and industry to evaluate t… more

BOAST II for the IBM 3090 and RISC 6000

Description: BOAST II simulates isothermal, darcy flow in three dimensions. It assumes that reservoir liquids can be described in three fluid phases (oil, gas, and water) of constant composition, with physical properties that depend on pressure, only. These reservoir fluid approximations are acceptable for a large percentage of the world's oil and gas reservoirs. Consequently, BOAST II has a wide range of applicability. BOAST II can simulate oil and/or gas recovery by fluid expansion, displacement, gravity … more

Pilot oil atlas for Louisiana. Final report

Description: An interdisciplinary research team of engineers, geologists, and computer scientists was assembled at LSU to develop unproved methods for prospecting for bypassed oil and to support oil and gas producers in Louisiana. The overall objective of the project was to develop methods for extending the producing life of several types of reservoirs by reducing the amount of oil being bypassed and abandoned. As part of this work, the team collected information available from public sources for several ex… more

Improved Recovery From Gulf of Mexico Reservoirs. Quarterly Status Report, January 1--March 31, 1996

Description: On February 18, 1992, Louisiana State University with two technical subcontractors, BDM, Inc. and ICF, Inc., began a research program to estimate the potential oil and gas reserve additions that could result from the application of advanced secondary and enhanced oil recovery technologies and the exploitation of undeveloped and attic oil zones in the Gulf of Mexico oil fields that are related to piercement salt domes. This project is a one year continuation of this research and will continue wo… more

Improved Recovery From Gulf of Mexico Reservovirs. Quarterly Report, 1 October 1995--31 December 1995

Description: The Gulf of Mexico Basin offers the greatest near-term potential for reducing the future decline in domestic oil and gas production. The Basin is less mature than productive on-shore areas, large unexplored areas remain, and there is great potential for reducing bypassed oil in known fields. On February 18, 1992, Louisiana State University with two technical subcontractors, BDM, Inc. and ICF, Inc., began a research program to estimate the potential oil and gas reserve additions that could resul… more

Improved Recovery From Gulf of Mexico Reservoirs. Volume Ii (of 4): Task 5, Modify Publicly Available Simulators. Final Report, February 14, 1995--October 13, 1996

Description: The objective for this portion of the research involved the continuation of the modifications of the public domain simulators BOAST and MASTER. The modifications continued during this project are generic relative to both BOAST and MASTER. BOAST was the primary concern during the research however, because MASTER as well.

Improved Recovery From Gulf of Mexico Reservoirs. Volume I (of 4): Task 1, Conduct Research on Mud-Rich Submarine Fans. Final Report, February 14, 1995--October 13, 1996

Description: The objective for this portion of the research involved conducting field studies and laboratory investigations to develop and refine models for mud-rich submarine fan architectures used by seismic analysis and reservoir engineers. These research aspects have been presented in two papers as follows: (1) Bouma, A.H., {open_quotes}Review of Fine-Grained Submarine Fans and Turbidite Systems{close_quotes}; (2) Kirkova, J.T. and Lorenzo, J.M., {open_quotes}Synthetic Seismic Modeling of Measured Subma… more

Improved Recovery From Gulf of Mexico Reservoirs. Volume III (of 4): Characterization and Simulation of Representative Resources. Final Report, February 14, 1995--October 13, 1996

Description: Significant innovations have been made in seismic processing and reservoir simulation. In addition, significant advances have been made in deviated and horizontal drilling technologies. Effective application of these technologies along with improved integrated resource management methods offer opportunities to significantly increase Gulf of Mexico production, delay platform abandonments, and preserve access to a substantial remaining oil target for both exploratory drilling and advanced recover… more

An adaptive finite element methodology for 2D simulation of two-phase flow through porous media

Description: A scheme for the accurate simulation of two-phase flow through porous media, utilizing adaptive finite element methods is presented. The theoretical equations and their approximation using Galerkin`s method is covered, followed by a discussion of a dynamically refined mesh which preserves piece wise solutions across transition elements. Finally, comparisons are made between results of computed simulations and laboratory experiments. The paper uses the processes occurring in a water coning scena… more

Modification of mainframe BOAST II

Description: BOAST II is a black-oil, applied-simulation tool used routinely for performing evaluation and design work in modern petroleum reservoir engineering. Personnel from the Louisiana State University Computer Science Department worked on modifying the mainframe version of this program through the simulation of two-phase flow of slightly compressible fluids in a three-dimensional porous medium. This included the construction of a FORTRAN program that uses 3-D finite elements to approximate the govern… more
