EOR Screening Methods: EOR Technical Screening. EOR Commercial Screening. Screening Softwares

This document discusses screening methods for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) projects. It describes two types of screening: technical screening, which evaluates reservoir data to identify suitable EOR methods; and commercial screening, which analyzes the economic benefits of shortlisted methods based on costs, revenues, and net present value. Several software tools are available to assist with the technical screening process, which is the first step in selecting and implementing the most appropriate EOR method for a given oil field.

❑ Introduction.
❑ EOR Screening Methods:
❑ EOR Technical Screening.
❑ EOR Commercial Screening.
❑ Screening Softwares.
Introduction
EOR Screening will be implemented on the RESERVOIR not the WELL or
the FIELD.

EOR phases are:

1. Selection of the best EOR method (Technical & Commercial).


2. EOR Pilot Design.
3. EOR Study.
4. EOR Full Field Implementation.
EOR Screening Methods
❑ EOR screening is the first step to do EOR project implementation
in he field.
❑ Screening has two sides: Technical screening & Commercial
screening.

Screening Screening
EOR Technical Screening
❑ EOR technical screening is the process of evaluating of the
available data with the standard criteria to come up with
suitable EOR method(s).

❑ The technical screening depends on all the available data in the


reservoir to select the best method among the others.

❑ The below data are required (if available) to do a successful


technical EOR screening.
❑ Fluid and Rock Properties:
o Reservoir Depth
o Clay Content
o Reservoir Temperature
o Water Hardness & Water Salinity
o Initial Pressure, Pb & Current Pressure
o Solution GOR
o Oil Density (API)
o Oil Viscosity
o Permeability (Kh & Kv)
❑ Driving Mechanisms
o Active Water Drive Bottom Water
o Gas Cap
o Secondary Injection Rate
❑ OIIP and Recoverable Reserves:
o Net Pay Thickness
o Pool Area
o Porosity
o Connate Water Saturation
o Oil Formation Volume Factor
o OIIP (Oil Initially In Place)
o Recoverable Reserves Cumulative Produced Oil Remaining Rec.
EOR Commercial Screening
❑ EOR Commercial screening is the process of evaluating of the
economical benefits of all EOR methods those have passed the
technical screening.
❑ It depends on the COST, INCOME & PROFIT where:
o Profit = Income – Cost
o Income is oil production * Oil price
o Cost consists of CAPEX (Capital Expenditure) & OPEX (Operating
Expenditure)

❑ Cash flow diagram is used to decide which one of the EOR


methods to be used and implemented based on the highest Net
Present Value (NPV).
NPV
❑ Economical analysis and evaluation is very important to decide
and select which EOR method will be implemented in the
future.
EOR Screening Softwares
❑ There are many softwares can do EOR technical screening, the
process in all of them targeting the selection the suitable EOR
method(s)
❑ All the softwares can do the same objective but in different way.
EOR Screening Softwares:
o EORgui Software
o SPE Format
o IOR Predictive SYS 1.0 Software
o SlectEOR Software
SlectEOR Software

SPE Format EORgui Software IOR Predictive Software
